Unexpectedly Attached To You

Chapter 3

Time went by quickly, so now, I'm walking home. Apparently my kuya has his so called "plans" so he can't take me home.

May hindi sinasabi sakin tong kuya ko na 'to e. Kagabi pa siya medyo distant sakin. Hindi naman siya ganon usually. Mas gusto niya panga yung lagi kaming magkasama. Siguro maturity is starting to finally hit him.

Tanda tanda na isip bata parin.

I thought to myself picturing him in his childish state that only I am able to see.

Kapag kaya may girlfriend na siya gagawin niya kaya lahat dun sa babae yung ginagawa niya sakin ngayon?

That thought made me stop in my tracks.

Just imagining him doing all the things he does to me to a different person makes me jealous. He's the only man in my life. He was, he is, and I thought he always will be.

What if he will not be able to make time for me anymore?

"Parang ang selfish ko naman no'n." I whispered to myself then continued to walk home.

Once I got home I greeted my mom then went to my room and threw myself on my bed. I just stared at the ceiling for a few minutes thinking of how my life will be when my kuya has his own life, when he decides to move out. I never really thought of that. Maybe maturity is hitting me too.

I quickly stood up and looked at myself in my mirror, then looked at one of the pictures hung on my wall. Specifically a picture of me and my kuya when we were younger. This was taken 11 years ago. I was six and my kuya was 10. We were both so little. I smiled and looked back at myself in the mirror.

I look so different.

I sat back down on my bed, still looking in the mirror. Time flies by so fast. I'm already 17 and my kuya is already 21. He's going to move out in a few months after he finishes college.

I had to start accepting the fact that things are changing. People are changing.

"Anong itsura 'yan?" My kuya asked when he entered my room and I didn't even notice it. I was too preoccupied with my thoughts.

"Kuya, do you have a girlfriend?" I blurted out that made him giggle.

"Well, what if I do?" Balik na tanong niya.

"So you do?" I said shocked. "You have a girlfriend?"

"Wala akong girlfriend." He stated as he moved to sit on my bed.

"Ano ba naman 'yan kuya. Ang tanda tanda mona wala ka pa'ng girlfriend. Ang hina mo naman. Or maybe you prefer other genders?"

"Kung magiging bakla ako sayang naman lahi ko." Biro niya and started laughing like it was the funniest thing he ever said.

I gave him a jokingly disgusted look as a response.

"Libre mangarap." I teased then started laughing.

Nagkwentuhan pa kami ng kuya ko ng konti bago siya magpaalam na may gagawin daw. Naghiga ako sa kama ko at nilabas ang cellphone ko

NoahRiverson started following you...

"Ay wow?" I said to myself and clicked on the notification.

Di ko namalayang iniistalk kona pala yung ig profile niya. Wala namang interesting sa profile niya puro picture lang niya, kadalasan din sa mga picture niya ay mga stolen shots.

Ifollow back ko kaya? Baka naman kung ano isipin non? Ay jusko di yan! Lahat naman ng kilala ko finafollow back ko.

Nagscroll ako papunta sa top ng profile niya tapos pinindot kona yung follow button. Pagkatapos non nagscoll ako through my ig feed for a few minutes bago ako nakaramdam ng gutom kaya bumaba ako papunta sa kusina.
