Kabanata 5

Brothers

"Ang ingay mo naman, Alcaeus! Nakita mong nagbabasa ako, e!" Inis na saway ko kay Alcaeus na ngayon ay kanina pa tumatawa habang pinapanood ako.

Nandito kami ngayon sa library. Ginisa kasi ako kanina ng teacher ko at hindi ako makapayag na may isang tanong akong hindi nasagot! Paano kung ayon ang maging dahilan nang pag-bagsak ko? May mga teacher pa naman na crazy talaga at hindi mo alam kung ano ang balak sa buhay. Isang mali lang ng student ay bagsak na agad sa kanila.

And I don't want to fail! That's horrible as fuck! Nakikita ko ang mukha ni Mommy na galit sa akin! Speaking of Mommy, hindi pa pala sila umuuwi at feeling ko wala na talaga silang balak umuwi. Wala nga silang tinatawagan sa bahay para mangamusta man lang.

"Don't stress yourself. Read it slowly and take your time. H'wag kang aburido, hindi mo talaga maiintindihan 'yan," pagpapaalala niya sa akin.

"Ang ingay mo kasi! Hindi ko rin maintindihan! Teka nga! Anong oras na ba? Bakit parang wala ng mga tao rito?" Nagtataka kong tanong at tumingin sa paligid.

"It's 5:30 P.M, tapos na ako magbasa at ikaw na lang ang hinihintay ko. Ang bagal mo."

"Nakita mong ang dami kong binabasa, e! Umuwi ka na kung gusto mo!" Iritado kong sabi sa kan'ya at tumawa siya. "Huwag ka nga tumawa! Nakakairita ka!"

"Why are you so mad? What did I do?" He asked innocently.

"Oh! Shut up, Sobremonte!"

I tried to focus again. I wrote some of my view and I tried to memorize but I ended up seeing a blood on my book, inis kong kinuha ang panyo ko at tumingala. Nagulat ako dahil tumayo si Alcaeus at hinawakan ang nape ko to made me look up straight, he held my handkerchief.

"I told you to take it slowly!"

"W-What are you doing? I can manage!"

"Manage your face! I told you to take it slowly! Clinics are unavailable now! Ang kulit mo kasi!" Galit niya pang sabi.

"Bakit ka galit? Nagdurugo na nga ilong ko!"

"Just calm down will you?"

"Ikaw 'tong nagagalit, e!"

Bumuntong hininga siya.

"Next time learn how to manage your time," he reminded me coldly.

"I-I really do struggle a lot in managing my time, Alcaeus. And don't panic whenever you see me with blood, for peter sake! Mauuna ka pang mahimatay kaysa sa akin!"

"Shut up!"

Natawa ako habang ang kamay niya ay nasa ilong ko. I scanned his reaction, he's so gentle when he's touching me. And right now, his eyes scream gentleness. There is no hint of ruthlessness on his eyes. It was all pure. Like he was so afraid to scare or hurt me.

"There is no blood running na, I am fine na!" I tried to convince him.

"We will go home now."

"Huh? Hindi pa ako tapos!"

"Uuwi na tayo."

"Hindi pa nga ako tapos! Ano ba 'yan!"

Isang galit na tingin ang ginawad niya sa akin at ganoon din ang ginawa ko. I did not plan all of these para lang may makialam sa mga choices ko! Yes, I was so desperate for him but he doesn't know where to draw the line! He's out when it comes to my study! We're like boyfriend-girlfriend's but if he is this demanding then we'll always fight! Study will always be my first choice.
