Embracing the Chaos (Eclipse Series #1)

Chapter 24

Katulad nga ng balak nila at ang nais nilang mangyari mula kanina pa, later that night we go to the bar to drink and have some fun. Pinagpaalam nila ako using a video call.

Well, Mom can't say no to them. Plus, papunta na raw pala ito ng airport at pauwi na ng pilipinas, nasaktuhan lang na gabi ang flight nito. She said she's on her way back home.

"Thanks, Tita. I love you!" Masayang sigaw nila, naki-agaw pa ang mga ito sa phone ni Nevi. "You're the best!" They added, giggling.

"Just take care of her," Mom reminded, nanatiling malayo ang tingin ko. "Don't drink too much, I allowed her since it was you guys. Do you get it?" She added, strictly.

"Don't you trust us Tita?" Mabilis na sagot ni Fern, ngumisi ito. "You too, Tita. Ingat po sa byahe!" Panlalambing niya pa.

They made a chika to my Mom pa. Naiinggit ako kasi buti pa sila close kay Mommy while I can't even say those words to her when I'm looking at her eyes. We are so distant to each other since my parents separation.

The call ended and Mom just smiled to us after reminding them over and over, I was fighting the urge of rolling my eyes and say something about this. Kasi, if ever na I was me the one who asked her about this matter, hindi niya naman ako papayagan.

Ayoko ng i-try since it exhaust me.

"Hey," Maarteng saad ni Nevi at nilayo ang phone. "Ang likot niyo naman masyado, it's nakakainis na." Irap nito, pumalumbaba pa.

"Ang sungit mo ata today," Natatawang puna ni Atashia dito. "Don't mind her, she's probably not in the mood." Saad pa nito sa amin na kinatawa lang namin.

"We are used to it." Sabay sabay pa naming sabi bago rin malakas na natawa.

I saw Nevi rolled her eyes and closed her eyes after. Bukod kasi sa ang dami niyang arte sa life, ang taray niya rin kahit sa amin.

Later after that, we're all ready.

"I'm excited!" Fern said, she giggled. "Miss ko narin kasi ang Delight, tagal ko ng hindi nakakabalik dito para mag-nomi!" Nguso nito.

She party dance bago sumenyas na magchu-chugs siya. Napangiwi ako dahil may masama akong alaala sa chugs na 'yan. The Eight memories kept on coming on me.

Isang black halter crop top ang suot ko na pinaresan ko ng high waist short. I put a liptint on, sinuot ko ang adidas stan smith sa paa. This outfit made me confident and somehow made me feel a little comfty.

Nakasakay kaming lahat sa isang puting SUV Van that parked in our garage. Bihira lang namin ito kung gamitin, madalas kasi kapag may mga family outing and gala lang kami. Kuya Istav and Indi go back here to fetch us up, Fern called them kasi.

Magkakasama kaming lahat dito at nakasakay na, si Kuya Istav ang driver namin habang nasa tabi niya naman sa may shutgun seat ay si Indigo na nantitrip.

"Drink but not too much, okay?" Kuya Istav remind me again, our eyes met in the rear mirror and he smiled. "Sach is still a minor, don't get caught." Paalala pa nito sa amin.

We rolled our eyes when he uttered that again, ilang ulit na kasi nitong pinapaalala sa amin habang papunta kami ng Delight. Oo na, I'm aware about that thing, okay?

"Bukas pwede kana makulong niyan," Saad ni Indi, natatawa tulad ni Kuya Istav dahil pikon na kami sa kanilang dalawa. "Ingatan niyo 'yan." Seryosong baling nito sa kanila.

"How to say Sachleia is your fave cousin without telling that Sachleia is your fave cousin?" Natatawang saad ni Atashia, umiling iling kay Indi. "It shows, Calvin."
