That Game Of Promise

CHAPTER 16

It's been two days since I entered the volleyball club, or should I say when Xamier entered me to the volleyball club. I haven't seen any girl members in the volleyball club.

Busy ako kakacellphone ngayong gabi habang nakahiga lamang sa kuwarto ko, bukas siguro malalate nanaman ako neto. I just sighed while I was scrolling in BookFace and a message pop up from my screen.

I didn't recognize the profile picture so I just ignored it, until he messaged

Are you waiting for my arrival?
Don't worry, I'll be there soon.
by: Cams Park

Ang sabi ng reply, who the fuck is this creep anyways? And I know hindi niya real name yung gamit niyang account, my skin shivers.

Oh please, no more horrible shits for meeeee.

Kinabahan ako sa last message na iyon kaya ibinaba ko nalang ang cellphone ko at huminga ng malalim, "Don't worry Morgan, nothing's gonna happen to you tomorrow,"

Then I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.

THE SUN RISES and the rays of sunlight hits my eyes so I woke up. Tumayo agad ako at tinignan ang cellphone ko para malaman kung anong oras na.

And to my surprise, I'm on time in waking up.

Tumayo ako at naghanda na para sa pagpunta ko sa eskuwela. I dressed into an oversized orange tshirt and light blue jeans. Hinawakaan ko ang aking buhok at tinignan ito sa salamin.

Looks like I need to cut it short.... bulong ko saking sarili.

I just shrugged at kinuha ang aking bag at bumaba, nakita kong nakahanda na ang baon ko sa kitchen counter. Parang ang aga namang ginawa ni manang Amy yung snack ko.

"Oh Morgan, gising ka,na pala," tumingin ako saking likod at si ate Marbel lang pala ito.

"Kala ko naman kung sino..." Bulong ko at nakahinga ng malalim, I got more nervous since I read that Cams Park guy's message. You'll never be too sure either it's a prank or real, so I'm always alert or worst a stalker.

"Yung tatay tsaka nanay mo pala nasa dining table, inaabangan ka," pahabol ni manang Marbel at umalis, my eyebrows furrowed and I sighed heavily. Andyan pala sila mama.

I never wanted to talk about them, pero I know they're gonna insist me na kumain ako kasama nila. Pumunta ako sa dining table at umupo sa tabi ni mommy habang si daddy ay nakaupo sa gitna namin.

"So how's the thing going on with you and Xamier dear?" she started with a smile on her face, now I have no choice but to go with the flow.

"I told you mom, I didn't want this marriage so we're not gonna get that close like you want us to," I bluntly said to them while their smile turned upside down.

"A-oh...How about your school? Are you doing well?" oh thank god she changed the subject.

"It's the same as always, I'm on top of my class and I'm doing very well on my studies so you don't have to worry...." Ani ko at nginuya ang aking pagkain.

I wipe my face when I'm done and checked my bag before leaving the table.

I stand up, "I have to-,"

"We have a new project going on," my dad spilled it, and my mom looks surprised.

"Dear!-,"

"Elena, wag mong kakalimutang matalino ang anak naten and she probably knows about our new project so we can't hide it anymore from her," sabi ng aking tatay at pinunasan ang kanyang bibig with a napkin.
