Chapter 3

Maya's POV

"Maya-oneechan!" sigaw ni Marga, kapatid ko. "Good morning, oneechan," bati nito at hinalikan ang pisngi ko.

"Good morning. How's your sleep?" tanong ko rito habang hinahanda ang almusal namin.

We don't have maids because dad wants us to learn how to work independently and be responsible. Though we used to have maids in Japan as I remembered, since we migrated here in the Philippines, we started to live the way that we'll be responsible and disciplines. Our parents always work far from home, so I am the one who takes care of my little sister. She's only 8 so I have the responsibility and obligation to look after her.

“It’s great. I dreamed of you and daddy and mommy last night, oneechan,” she said cheerfully.

"What happened?" tanong ko rito.

"We went to the park and then played. We enjoyed so much," aniya at pagkatapos ay sumubo ng omelette. "I wish we could really go to the park like what we did in my dream," ani Marga sa malungkot na tono.

"Me, too, sunshine. But mom and dad is so busy," paliwanag ko rito. "But, don't worry because tonight I'll ask dad about it. What do you think?" ani ko.

Ngumiti siya at lumapit sa akin at niyakap ako.

"Thank you, oneechan," aniya habang kayakap ako.

"You're welcome. Eat your breakfast and we'll go to school," ani ko at itinuloy ang pagkain.

Pagkatapos ko'ng ihatid ang kapatid ko sa primary school, dumiretso na ako sa academy. Hindi naman siya ganoon kalayo mula sa bahay namin pero kailangang gumamit ng sasakyan kasi hindi pa ganoon kaayos ang daan.

I parked my car and got out. Habang papasok ako ng gate ay may nakabanggaan pa ako.

"Watch where you are going, Japanesa," aniya ng isang babaeng hindi kaputian pero may itsura. May kasama pa siyang dalawang babaeng may kulay ang buhok.

'Cheerleaders.'

"I'm watching. You were the one who intentionally bumped me," ani ko.

Nakita ko'ng umungat ang kanang kilay nito. Inangat ko din ang kilay ko.

"So what are you saying now? I'm the one who's reckless?" tanong nito sa sarkastikong tono.

"It came out of your mouth, miss," ani ko at nagsimula nang maglakad.

Pinigilan niya ang paglakad ko. Hinila niya ako pabalik sa pwesto ko kanina.

"Don't think of me letting you out of this, Japanesa," inis na aniya.

"I'm not thinking about it anyway," nakangiti ko'ng tugon rito. "So, yeah."

Napasinghal siya sa hangin. Niinis na siya ng sobra.

"You half breed Japanesa!" aniya at akma ako'ng sasampalin.

"Dare to land that hand on her face and you will never feel it again," ani ng isang malalim na boses mula sa likuran ko.

Nakita ko'ng napalunok ang babaeng kaharap ko ngayon dahil sa takot. Kahit ako ay nakaramdam din ng takot.Parang isang boss ng mafia kung makapagbanta. Daig pa ang may-ari ng school.

Nilingon ko ito. Ngumisi siyang tumingin sa akin at inakay ako papasok ng hallway ng building namin.

'So dito rin siya papunta?'
