CHAPTER ONE
“I don’t trust you.”
“Oh really, come on who the hell trust a stranger who you met just a week ago?”
I, the old me trust people so easily that made me the person I am today. I just sighed and turned my back on her, I’m currently fixing my bag after finishing my second session here in her private gym.
Natapos na ako sa pagliligpit kaya naglakad na ako palabas habang nakasabit sa balikat ko ang sports bag ko, I was looking for a trainer or better say a companion.
I don’t really want to have one but something happened and I have no choice but to look for someone who is excellent in hand combat, the JH University is opening soon and I want to make myself move forward. I mean yeah I’ve been training for six months but still I don’t feel the strength I need to face them all.
“I’m done for today’s training.” I said and exited the place, as soon I stepped outside the building the cool air from the AC left and was replaced with hot air. Napahinga na lang ako nang malalim at tumungo sa kotse ko, I bought this three months ago and I still feel it was yesterday.
Sumakay na ako at pinaandar ito, after working from many different jobs finally I saved enough money to buy my very own car. It’s a very common car but for exclusive people only, ewan ko rin eh kung bakit ito ang napili ko but oh well I love it.
This car are used for the officials parang yung kotse na nakikita mo sa mga action movies, ang cool nga sa feeling dahil first time kong magkaroon ng kotse yung sosyalan pa and to tell you this is the first car I drove with well except sa kotse na pinag trainingan ko.
I still remember how I bought it, dahil nga first time ko bibili ng kotse ay tinanong ko sila kung ano ang model na simpleng tingnan pero kung gagamitin mo ito ay mapanganga ka lang dahil hindi ito basta-basta.
Dinala ako ng worker sa tapat ng isang kotse which is color white ng model na ito, nagustuhan ko ang features kaya lang yung kulay ay hindi dahil parang ang eye-catching sa kinang.
Sa una sinabi nilang limited edition lang yun dahil yun lang ang natitira pero ng ipakita ko ang black card and wala silang nagawa kundi ibigay sa akin ang nagiisang black model, naka-reserved daw yun pero ibinigay nila dahil hindi naman talaga kukunin ng bumili dahil one month na itong naka-reserved and they need money kaya ibenenta ba nila ito sa akin.
Bago umaalis ng shop nila ay nagsulat ako ng letter at ipinagbilin na ibigay nila ito sa nag-pareserve, nakalagay lang naman kung gusto nila ang kotse ay tawagan lang nila ako sa number na ibinigay ko.
Nag slow down ako sa stop light at sumandal muna, I reached for my phone and looked at my to-do list for today. I have been doing these for nearly five months and it’s starting to grow on me, na ibalik ko agad ang selpon ko sa bag ng marinig ko ang mga busena ng kotse sa likod ko kaya bumalik na ako sa pag mamaneho.
My next task for today is to buy things for school and for my new condo, I just moved their yesterday and the rooms are still empty. Yung isang maleta lang ata ang naiwan ko doon ang my documents are here in my car for safety, temporary safeness. Hindi ko pa kasi pinagkakatiwalaan ang may-ari ng condo na iyon, she looks suspicious the first time I meet her.
Nagpark na ako pagkarating ko sa NS Mall, don’t ask me about the name, hindi ko rin alam kung bakit NS ang pangalan niya. Pagkatapak ko pa lang sa tiled floor ng mall ay sinalubong ako nang malamig na hangin galing sa ibabaw ko kung saan nakalagay ang aircon, inayos ko ang suot kong jacket at sinuot ang hood nito.
Light weight siya and super absorbent which is very convenient for doing exercise or something that makes me sweat excessively, lumakad na ako sa shop na pupuntahan ko and that is the mattress shop.
