Unloved (On Going)

Chapter 5

Thalia
Ganito pala yung feeling nang masaya.
Yung feeling na tangap ka?
Matapos kong malaman na kapatid ko si Shaira ay mas napadali ang pag explain sakin ni papa about sakanya.

At first medyo na shock siya nung makita niya kaming magkasama since hindi pa niya ako nasabihan tungkol sakanya. Pero I assured him na ayos lang. Kasi alam ko naman na eh.
Hindi lang yun. We are about the same age as well.

Nakakatuwa nga eh kasi ang dami naming similarities. She likes to read as well gaya ko. And guess what?
We'll be classmates this coming school year. I can't wait!
This school year will be a blast.

"Lia. Which would you prefer? This white Louis Vuitton bag or yung Red Gucci na bag?" Ani ni Shaira habang hawak hawak yung dalawang mamahalin na bag.

Jusko po. Mamimili na nga lang ng Backpack yung sobrang mahal pa. Ugh. Medyo mahihirapan ata akong mag adjust sa luxury life na toh. Oppss. I almost forgot. Asa mall nga pala kami ni Shaira. Well since malapit naman na daw yung pasukan mag shopping na lang daw kami ng mga gamit. Also she wants to use this time for us to get to know each other daw. Syempre bakit naman hindi dba.

"Yung Gucci na lang Shaira." Sagot sakanya habang nakaupo sa isang stall.

Break time muna. Medyo napagod ako kakalakad namin eh. Tapos ang dami na din naming nabili. Pagkatapos namin sa bags. Makeup naman daw. Bale last na yun. Naaawa na ako sa dalawa naming bodyguard. Andami na nilang dala. Jusko po.

"Tara Lia. Makeup naman." Ani ni Shaira habang nakahawak dun sa sampung bags na binili niya. Bale 5 each daw kami.

Ano daw?
Ang mahal nung mga bags na yun tas tig lima pa kami? Omy gash. I can't this girl. Matapos niyang ibigay sa bodyguard namin yung dala dala niya ay kinaladkad nita nanamn ako papunta dun sa favourite makeup store niya daw.

Pagpasok pa lang namin ay agad na kaming nilapitan ng staff. "Good afternoon Ms. Miller." Bungad saamin nung dalawang babae. "Please tend to my sister's needs. " Sagot naman ni shaira na ikinagulat ko.
Di ko naman ata kailangan ng mga ganitong bagay eh. Yun nga lang hinila na ako nung staff.

Hindi lang naman mga branded na makeup yung andito kundi skincare products din. Ala pang isang minuto eh halos napuno na yung basket ng mga skincare products habang yung isa namang staff ay abala sa pag pili ng makeup para sakin.
Hindi naman siguro ako magmumukha clown pagkatapos ko gamitin lahat yan dba. Because clearly. Wala akong knowledge sa pag lagay ng makeup nor do I have any skincare routine.

Since busy sila. Sinubukan kong mag lagay ng liptint sa labi ko. Having no knowledge about what colour would suit me best. I grabbed a dark red tint and applied it on my lips.
"It suits you miss. It complements your fair skin." Ani nung staff na abalang mamili ng makeup para sakin.
I smiled. "I'll take this then." Sagot ko naman sakanya.

After waiting for what seemed like an hour. Natapos na din kami.
Finally makakapagpahinga na din ako.
When you have fats in your body. Trust me everything you do seems to be hard.
Mabilis kang mapagod and you sweat a lot. I need to replenish my energy.

We stopped at a restaurant at dali dali akong nag order. Medyo nahiya ako sa kapatid ko eh. Vegetable salad saka protein shake lang kasi inorder. Meanwhile ako. Ayun nag Carbonara saka burger at large fries.
We waited for a few minutes. Nang dumating na yung food at agad ko na itong nilantakan.

Ugh. Ang sarap. That really hit the spot. Feeling ko fully charged na ako.
After namin kumain ay agad na kaming nag tungo sa sasakyan. Its getting dark. Kailangan na namin umuwi. Idedeliever pa kasi yung bookshelf ko at study table.
Yup. Those are my essentials. I'll be needing that for school.

"Did you have fun Lia?" Asked Shaira while giving me her signature smile.
Sino ba namang hindi. I nodded my head as a reply.
Ilang minuto lang ang biyahe namin since malapit lang namn yung mall kaya naman nakarating kami kaagad.

After getting off the car. I quickly headed to the trunk to get my stuff. I cant just let the bodyguards carry all of our stuff. I had to plastic bags in each of my hand. Kukuha pa sana ako ng dalawa nang may kamay na pumigil sakin. "Let me carry those stuff for you." I looked at the man beside me and saw Leander with a serious look on his face.  I was going to say no but looking at his face stopped me from saying so.
"O-okay. If you insist." I replied.

I let him carry 10 bags while I carry 1 in each hand. Nang makarating kami sa kwarto ko agad niya namn yun na inilapag at umalis din pagkatapos.
Isa isa kong binuksan yung mga plastic bags na yun habang ina arrange yung nga gamit na pinamili namin.
Sa sobrang abala ko ay hindi ko na napansin ang bookshelf sa tabi ko.

That was fast. Na assemble na pala nila. Andito na din yung study table ko. Everything is perfect. After stacking the books that I bought earlier ay agad akong nagtungo sa banyo for a quick bath. My sore muscles instantly went away as I stepped inside of the tub filled with lukewarm water.

Hindi pa din ako makapaniwala na ito na ngayon yung buhay ko. Everything feels like a dream. A day ago I was penniless. I even had to work part time para lang makakain kami ni mama. Pero ngayon. I feel at ease.  I no longer have to work. Nakakalungkot nga lang kasi hindi na toh naabutan ni mama.
Oh I wish she was still here.
