Chapter 14: Head Over Heels

Magsimula sa umpisa
                                    


I shook my head. Ilang araw na akong hindi nagpaparamdam sa kanila bago pa man mangyari ito dahil sa mga problema ng pamilya namin sa nagdaang araw. I can't help but appreciate their worry.


Summer:
I'm fine.


Gerica:
WTF!!! SUMMER ALYDIA MORADA!


Roseanna Romasanta is inviting you in a group call.


"Saan ka galing? Why are you not responding to us? Akala namin may nangyari nang masama sa 'yo," Rosea said in between sobs. It touched my heart, she's crying.


At least when I die, someone will be there to cry for me, huh? Napahinto ako. Is my mom's suicidal thought getting to me too?


"Uh, maybe you didn't know because my family is really trying their best to cover up the scandal but... we got scammed billions and they," tinatagan ko ang nanginginig na boses ko. "t-they sold me."


"What the- Where are you now?!" Gerica said almost hysterical.


"Don't worry about me, I'm in a good place. I-I'm... a m-maid for Esquivels," I assured them.


"Put- Seryoso ka ba? Esquivels? You mean family of Everett Esquivel?" Rosea said recovering from her break down earlier.


Nagulat ako doon. Kilala ba nila ang lalaki? 


"What? You know him?" I asked to be sure.


"Who wouldn't? That man is head over heels for you!" Gerica stated and panicking at the same time.


That's ridiculous. We just met the first time here! How could they said that? They probably mistaken him for someone else.


"What? You don't know him. Sabi ko naman sayo, tigilan mo na ang kakainom, ngayon gumgawa ka na ng kwento?" I fired back. 


I heard Gerica scoffed on the other line. I chuckled because she sound offended.


"Are you kidding me? You don't know the man," Rosea said, emphasizing the word 'you'.


Umirap ako sa kawalan at napa-iling na lamang. "Okay, sige. I believe you," I said sarcastically just so they would stop this madess.


"He is the face of the university! There's no way you wouldn't know him.  Of course, Summer Alydia "I don't know anyone other than my whole university friends, so I don't care about anyone that doesn't interest me." Morada," Gerica mocked me while using a more girly voice, imitating me.
