Chapter 14

Vhastiana's point of view

Nakauwi ako sa bahay ng punong-puno ang utak ng pagtataka kung sino ang pumalit ng pinaghirapan kong drawing. Hindi ko kase nagawa ang homework ko kagabi dahil wala ako sa bahay kaya ganoon nalang ang kinalabasan. Natulog lang ako sa coffee shop at pag gising ko parang magic lang ang nangyare. Pang professional talaga ang pagkakaguhit na tila ba may sinusunod na pattern.

Una akala ko nagkapalit lang pero nakalagay doon ang pangalan ko. Ayaw ko man sanang ipasa yun dahil una sa lahat hindi ko iyon pinaghirapan kaso wala na akong natitirang oras. Humingi na ako ng kaunting oras upang tapusin ang drawing about sa outdoor activities.

"Kung hindi lang sana ako pinagmadali ng asungot na Nyx!" sabi ko at sinara ng malakas ang pinto sa kwarto ko.

Sumalampak ako sa kama, inaantok na talaga ako. Nawalan pa ako ng ganang makinig kanina. Idagdag mo pa ang anonymous person na nagpadikit ng love letter niya sa notice board. Nakaka stress talaga.  Nyx will allow me to bring the activities at home to finish but he is questioning me who posted the letter. I told him na hindi ko kilala but he was insisting na kilala ko raw.

"The letter and the person behind it has nothing to do with him. And besides it's unfair naman kung papayagan niya ako."

It's was indeed a tiring day. Thank God it's weekend tomorrow. I could rest all day. Mabuti nalang nga at na move sa monday ang film viewing namin.

I was about to close my eyes but my phone keep on ringing. Someone is calling me.

"You got home?"

It is Ghetto, I never see him earlier because he was absent for unknown reason. I understand why he didn't tell me why. I know how to respect person's privacy anyway.

"Just now. How are you? I didn't call you earlier. I was so busy to the point that it gave me a bit headaches."

I heard him laugh on the other line, "haha! You used to be a busy person. What's new? By the way I am calling to invite you to play badminton tomorrow. Are you going?" 

"Aren't you going to let me rest Ghetto? I think about it." mataray na sagot ko.

"Baka nakalimutan mong pati nanay ko pinagsinungaling mo kagabi Vhastiana? I am a bit anxious where did you really stayed last night. Mind to share it with your handsome bestfriend?"

Yeah, I almost forget that I used them as an excuse last night just to stay with Gremlin. My neck got stiffen when I woke up lying on the couch. I never been using couch as a bed before. Also his bedroom theme is really annoying and weird. Sino ba naman kase ang mag aakalang sa edad niyang yun eh fan ng cult of chucky? I am not scared because first of all hindi naman 'yun totoo. I like horror movies though minsan nakakainis lang talaga.

Muntikan ko na nga siyang maibagsak kagabi dahil sa kabaduyan ng kwarto niya. Hirap na hirap akong binuhat siya paakyat sa kwarto. Mabuti nalang at tama ang napasukan kong silid. He even throw the porridge on the floor while half awake. Nandidiri ko iyong nilinisan. Kung hindi niya lang sana ako tinulungan noon edi sana hindi ko naranasang maging yaya for a night.

"Hey Vhastiana Wazu hapones! Are you still listening or thinking about something? Let me know and I'll end the call now."
