"WHY DID you sleep so late in the night? Or rather, did you even sleep?" Tanong ni Kali. I clutched my head as I felt dizzy.
"Kali, what will I do now?" Frustrated kong sabi. Yesterday's agenda really kept me up all night. Ang sakit ng ulo ko at gusto ko nang matulog. Sumeryoso naman ang ekspresyon ni Kali.
"Why, what happened?" Tanong niya saka umupo sa tabi ko. Isinandal ko ang ulo ko sa balikat niya.
"Tita Monique just visited yesterday." Tipid kong sabi habang nakapikit. Ramdam ko naman ang paglingon niya sa akin.
"Tita Monique--- Lucas' mother, is that right? Looks like my hunch is correct. So when are you getting married?" He casually asked. Siniko ko lang siya.
"Getting married, my ass! I don't wanna get married. I don't even know that Lucas guy." Sabi ko habang hinihilot ang aking sentido.
"Well, Lucas grew up in States so he's kinda liberated but he's not a relationship type of person so I bet you'll have a hard time with him. He's a cold hearted jackass most of the time so I don't know what's goin with his mind." Sabi niya. I glared at him.
"Why are you telling this to me, jerk?" tanong ko. He shrugged.
"So that you can get to his good side, maybe? You're going to their villa this vacation, right?" Sabi niya. Nagsalubong ang kilay ko.
"How in earth do you know that?"
"Lucas mentioned something like that when we bumped to each other last week. And.. well, whatever." Sabi niya. Inalis ko naman ang ulo ko sa balikat niya saka siya inirapan.
"Lucas told you? Why didn't you tell me?" Inis na sabi ko.
"Calm down, witch. Sinabi ko sa'yo, hindi ka lang nakikinig." Sabi niya saka pin-at ang ulo ko. Ugh! It's so frustrating!
I decided to spend the afternoon sleeping in the school's clinic. Masyado na kasing masakit ang ulo ko at nahihilo na rin ako. I can't even focus on the lessons anymore now that the idea of marriage and Lucas are still haunting me.
"Ate," tawag ni Carter nang makababa kami ng sasakyan. Olivia and Harper have already gone inside at kami nalang dalawa ang nasa labas.
"What do you need?" tanong ko.
"I heard everything yesterday." Maikling sabi niya. Napabuntong-hininga nalang ako.
"Of course you know. Eavesdropping was your hobby ever since you're a kid." Komento ko. He just stared at me.
"Are you really okay with that?" Seryosong tanong niya. Napangiti ako at pinitik siya sa ulo.
"Don't worry. I won't let anyone to force me to something that I don't wanna do. At isa pa, maikli lang ang dalawang buwan. Mamimiss mo ba 'ko?" Biro ko. Inismiran niya lang ako at saka naunang pumasok sa mansyon.
"Jeez, that brat really.. tsk.." napailing nalang ako saka sumunod sa kanya.
.............................................................................................
Mabilis na lumipas ang mahigit isang buwan. Tapos na ang finals namin and as usual, si Kali na naman ang nangunguna. My name is always behind his, that guy!
Hindi rin ako naka-attend ng birthday ni Tita Monique a week after he's last visit dahil kinidnap ako ni Khalil para magpalibre sa bagong labas na movie na pareho naming inaabangan. Syempre kasama rin namin ang kambal. Si Olivia naman ay busy sa pag-aaral dahil sa nahuhuli siya sa ibang subjects. Nawala din sa mood si Khalil ng araw na iyon. Palibhasa ako ang palagi niyang ginagawang alibi at bridge para makalapit sa kapatid ko.
