Kabanata 2

KABANATA 2

Who's this?

Napahawak ako sa'king noo at hinilot muli,  habang nakatingin sa phone ko na nasa kama basta ko nalang hinagis.

My phone started to rang.

Kaya agad ko kinuha iyon at napakagat sa'king labi.

"Hey.. I miss you so much scarlet.."

"Amputa? Kapal ng mukha ha!" Mae shouted in annoyance, annoyance at the same time anger written on her face.

I sighed and close my eyes tightly. Narinig ko ang pag sipa nya sa upuan na nasa harapan namin.

Enzo and I didn't talk, sa gulat ko ay nababa ko ang tawag. I cried all night, after the call. Mabuti nalang ay saktong gabi at hindi narin ako nakalabas maging nakakakain. I just locked up myself inside of my room.

"Ewan ko jan sa pinsan mo gary, go talk to your cousin at alam kong may plano na namang makipag balikan yan!" Mae walked away from us.

Sinundan ko lamang sya ng tingin. Gary followed his eyes at mae, he's my cousin, yet for me he's annoying person.

Gary shifted his eyes at me. Napairap sya sa akin na aking kinagulat. I looked away and pinch my left hand skin, my mannerism.

"Stop the crap scarlet, you're hurting yourself" he sitted besides me, crossing his legs.

Napangiwi naman ako at hinri na nag salita pa.

"Alam mo. I know you from the very start and I love you as my sister.." gary spoke, it made me glance at him "I wanted to be close to you, nuong mga bata pa tayo.." dagdag nya at ngumiti.

"Kahit halos mag ka edad lang tayo, I treated you as my sister. Alam mo namang nag iisa akong anak, and besides kami nalang ni nany ang mag kasama dahil nga, my dad left us. Hindi na nag planong mag asawa at mag anak si nany.."

Grayy ruffled my hair. "Heal your heart and choose your self too scarlet.. you're fighting while him he's no longer fighting for the both of you" he breathed. "Don't forget to choose yourself at once.."

Gary stood up, nag pamulsa at nakatingin kung saan. After all, his my cousin slash brother, I treated him as my brother back at time when were young. It just like that, one of the reason why we're not close anymore because we're getting older. Na nabaling ang atensyon ko sa iba. In fact, their house was far away from us, kaya simula nung tumongtung kami ng highschool, they never visit us.

"Thanks gary. I got this, I promise.." sabi ko.

"We're always here for you lucy, hindi ka nag iisa. Gusto mo puntahan na natin 'yang gago mong ex tapos gulpihin ko-"

Hinampas ko ang kaniyang braso. "Siraulo ka!" Sigaw ko, at sabay kaming tumawa.

"Lucy.."

Napatigil ako sa pag lalakad nang marinig ang boses ni papa. Matapos ang klase ay agad akong umuwi. Luckily,bI didn't see that convient guy, maging ang band nila na hindi pakalat kalat at nag iingay sa part ng university.

I walked towards to my papa, he's seating on chair. "Ano po 'yon, pa?"

He looked at me, straighly to my eyes. Kinabahan naman ako sa paraang pag titig niya dahil tila mapanuri ito ng maari kong emosyon o kung ano man.

He looked away, "Nasa ibabaw ng mesa mo ang allowance mo ngayong buong buwan.." nag likha ng ingay ang upuan pag ka tayo niya.

"Iwasan mo ang pag iinok dahil babae ka, hindi ko gusto laging nag iinom at uuwi kang ganuon, mamaya kung anong mangyari sa'yo.."
