TW: Harassment - Violence
jiromorales started following you.
I squinted my eyes on my phone, while reading my notification. Napairap na lang ako at hinayaan ang lalaki dahil wala naman siyang message request sa'kin. It's not that I'm waiting for him to make his first move pero, ayaw ko lang na guluhin niya na naman ako hanggang sa social media.
The way he talks to me makes me want to reflect about my attitude. Ganoon ba ako kataray? I'm maldita with a heart naman, ah!
There was just something in him that makes me so annoyed and pissed off. Wala pa siyang ginagawa o sinasabi, ay naiirita na ako sakaniya. Why does Liam even have friends like those guys!? Pathetic.
Nothing really happened after 2 weeks. Another 2 weeks and this school year will end, reason for us to get extra pressured with all of our school requirements. Liam's band barely practice on our house since all of them became busy. Liam told me that there will be a division contest a week before graduation so they need to practice a lot with their performance.
And luckily, hindi laging sa bahay namin ang practice nila. Every moment with them feels like hell. They are like...slapsoils!
"Kids!" I heard mom approaching from our backyard garden with an excited voice. Kauuwi lang ni mommy kahapon and because today was her day off, she spends time with us.
"Mom! Easy!" I laughed at her face.
"Your Tita Necie was near na daw! She told me that she will stay here for a night before going on her condominium!" Mommy told us while holding her phone and reading a message.
"Sino si Necie?" Liam asked.
"Liam! She was your Auntie who moved at Australia about a decade ago! How come you can't remember her!" Umirap si mommy.
Decade ago? Paano namin maaalala kung sampung taon na ang nakalipas?
Tita Necie went inside our house with her gorgeous smile. Amoy abroad pa sya, but I really don't remember a memory with her. Mommy welcomed her with wide arms, and so were us.
Kuya Ethan was next to tita Necie dahil siya ang sumundo dito sa airport. We all sat at our couch, feeling awkward now.
"Kausapin niyo ang Tita niyo! I'll just prepare something to eat." Mommy said.
Tita Necie asked about kuya's studies. Suportado ang family namin sa side ni mommy, sa pag-aabogado ni kuya. Dad's family side was the only one toxic in terms of fairness and freedom.
Tita also asked about my dreams and goals and I didn't hesitate to tell her everything I was dreaming for. She also asked Liam's.
"Sabi ko na, i-interview-hin tayo dito eh." Liam whispered. Marahan ko siyang kinurot and I smiled awkwardly for tita Necie.
"What do you want to be someday, hijo?" Tita Necie repeated.
"Kriminal po." He smiled cutely. "Abogado si kuya eh. Kawawa naman po kung mawawalan siya ng trabaho kaya mag kri-kriminal nalang ako."
"Siraulo ka ba?" Kuya Ethan moved his face closer on Liam.
"Oh, that's what you want hijo," Tita laughed a bit.
