Unforgettable Taste

Chapter 2

Centaurus

"Ma'am Erin, late na po kayo" I woked up immediately upon hearing what Manang Flora have said.

F*ck what's that stinky smell? Ang baho bullsh*t.

"What's that smell ba? Yuck ha" I said and covered my nose.

I heard Manang Flora laughed so I looked into her direction. Ano'ng pinagtatawanan niya? Is she crazy na din? F*ck I always encounter crazy people nowadays ha. Is this a sign na magiging crazy nadin ako?

"What are you laughing at? Crazy ka na din?" maarteng ani ko sakanya at tumayo na mula sa pagkakahiga.

"Sarili niyo po kasi tinutukoy niyo Ma'am" she responded.

Ano'ng ibig niyang sabihin? Lagi akong naghahalf bath bago ako matulog how come na sinabihan niya ako ng mabaho?! To prove that I'm not mabaho, I smelled myself. Totoo nga si Manang Flora. I'm kadiri na, amoy alak ako at suka what the f*ck.

Hindi ko na nilingon si Manang Flora kahit patuloy parin siya sa pagtawa. Dumiretso nalang ako sa CR and washed myself. What happened last night ba? Paano ako nakauwi? As far as I can remember, no'ng malapit na akong malasing ay humiga nalang ako sa sofa. I did not do something wrong naman siguro.

While washing myself, Manang Flora knocked on my CR's door. I stopped the shower muna to hear what she's about to say.

"Ma'am tumatawag po si Ma'am Sai sa inyo" she said.

I slightly opened the door at kinuha ko ang phone ko kay Manang. What will she say nanaman ba? Is this important?

"What? I'm naliligo, why did you call?" I asked.

"Grabe ha, tatanong ko lang sana kung masarap ba" what is she saying ba? Masarap ang what?

"What are you saying ba? Hindi pa ako nagbreakfast duh" ani ko na siya namang ikinatawa niya. What's funny? Crazy nadin ba siya?

" ay hindi mo maalala? Sabi mo kasi sa'min kagabi masarap kaya tinatanong kita kung masarap pa din ba hanggang ngayon" natatawang sambit niya.

"You know what? You're crazy na din. Bye b*tch" I said and hang up the call.

Inabot ko kay Manang ang phone and then continued washing myself after that. Crazy nadin ba cousins ko? Buti nalang I'm normal pa. My brain is strong pa naman. How do they say it again? I always hear it on our classroom e, oh right! Erin lang Sakalam!

"Erin lang Sakalam!" I shouted. Opss did Manang heard me? It's astig pala.

"Ano po 'yon Ma'am?" rinig kong sigaw ni Manang kaya't napatawa nalang ako dahil do'n.

Pagkalabas ko ng CR ay Dumiretso na ako sa walk in closet ko. What will I wear kaya? It's our free day today kaya we are encouraged to wear what ever we want for today.

" I'll wear this nalang" I uttered after picking up the pink sleeveless dress that I bought on H&M. I also partner it with my white gucci shoes. I also added accessories to compliment my outfit. F*ck I'm so pretty talaga. I look so elegant as always.

"Ganda niyo Ma'am ah, blooming po ata kayo ngayon" Manang Flora said pagkalabas ko ng walk in closet ko.

"You're bolera Manang ha, it's okay naman. You're always telling the truth naman e" I said and we both laughed after that.

After finishing my look, bumaba na kami ni Manang. I won't eat breakfast na because I'm late na pala. I'll bring our lunch nalang ni Nia.

Kukunin ko na sana ang paper bag na may lamang lunch box namin ni Nia sa kitchen pero napatigil ako nang may nakitang babaeng nagluluto sa kitchen. Who's that?
