Black Blazzer

Why?

After the awkward incident that happened between me and Christopher Velez, I fix my hair on the sliding door because I can see my reflection on it. Maybe I should cut my hair because it's getting so long.

Right now I am inside a mall, just window shopping and roaming around trying to find if there is any promotion or sales from any stores here. My mind drift back to the scenario when Chris held my hand to stop me from leaving.

He purposely wanted me to tutor him Spanish, he got caught when he was in the middle of a phone call but why me? What was the reason that he had to drag me to his place so that I can tutor him Spanish?

I shake my head, whatever.

Suddenly, my phone rings and I sigh because my mother is calling and I feel annoy by it.

"What." I lazily ask my mother.

"Where are you? Erick is here.." She mention.

"Fine, I'm on my way. Jeez.. "I reply.

Why is she acting like I have to give my full attention towards my cousin? I know he's younger than me but still he's not even a kid anymore and besides I have things to do.

I decided to drop by at the convenient store to buy some snacks because I know Erick and he loves having movie marathon with me at night. It is like our cousin thingy where it's only the two of us watching movies while eating a lot junk food.

Basically a cousin ritual, on our way to diabetes and obesity but don't worry because we don't do it on a daily basis.

"I'm home!" I shout to notify the people inside this house that the real adult who is struggling finally comes home after a long hard day because her boss's son is confusing and a jerk.

Erick jump from the couch and run towards me to give me a warm hug, I smile and I can't believe how tall he is now. He's taller than me and that is so disrespectful because I am older. "Wow, you've grown inches." I scan him from his head to his toes.

He does the handsome sign finger gesture and I act like I'm gonna vomit when I see him doing that. "I told you that you've grown not that you became good looking, don't flatter yourself son. You're still ugly, nothings changed. Just your height." I smack his back and he wince in pain while following me to the kitchen.

He pouts, "You're a bitch."
