DS #5: Sienna x Kane

Kabanata 6

Kane's POV

"Why did you do that, Gab?!" bahagyang tumaas ang boses ko. Magkasama kaming naglalakad palabas ng school niya, "That's nonsense," I whispered. Pinagtitinginan siya kami ng mga estudyante, siguro nagkalat sa buong school ang ginawa niya.

"Hey, you okay?" teenage boy approach her. Kumunot ang noo ko.

"Go away!" my sister shouted. Dumaan lang kami sa kaniya, "That prick," she mumbled.

"Your mouth, Gab. 'Wag mong hintayin na magalit ako lalo," pagbabanta ko sa kaniya.

Huminga siya ng malalim. Inangat niya ang dalawa niyang kamay. She rolled her eyes, "Fine." She walked fast. Iniwan niya akong nakasunod sa kaniya. Masyado siyang spoiled. Napailing ako. How much more kapag nakita niya si Sienna sa labas.

Pagdating namin sa kotse ay natigilan siya. She looked at me and back to the woman in my car.

Her brows knitted, "Who's this woman? Are you dating someone?!" she asked irritatedly. Sienna waved her fingers at her while smiling.

I covered my mouth, may maliit na tawa na lumabas mula sa mga labi ko. She doesn't recognize her.

"N-No," I answered.

She stomped her feet before entering the backseat. Napapikit ako sa malakas na pagsara niya ng pintuan.

Napatakip din ng tenga si Sienna sa loob. She looked at me asking why Gab couldn't recognize her. Nagkibit-balikat lang ako at pumasok na sa driver's seat. Nagpumilit kasi na sumama. She thought they could hang out today.

"Don't tell her," I said. Napatingin ako sa rearview mirror. Gab is crossing her arms. Madilim siyang nakatingin sa labas ng bintana.

"What?! Why not?" Sienna asked.

"Why? Are you getting married, kuya?"

Natigilan kaming dalawa. We both expressionless.

I cleared my throat, "G-Gab, what? What are you saying?" nauutal kong tanong.

Nag-iwas ng tingin si Sienna kaya hindi ko na rin magawang tumingin sa kaniya.

"We should go home. Ihahatid na lang kita sa office," ani ko. She nodded her head. My jaw clenched. This is akward. I took a deep breath.

I drove back in the office. Iniwan ko siya sa labas ng entrance. She's pouting her lips and waving her hand from side to side. Nilipat niya ang tingin kay Gab pero wala namang pake sa kaniya ang kapatid ko. Kanina pa 'yan nakasimangot.

I pushed the horn twice before driving away. Ilang minuto ang lumipas ay binalak kong pagsabihan siya tungkol sa nangyari kanina sa school.

"Gab," I started.

"Kuya, they are calling Sie bitch!" she exclaimed. Her eyes darkened. She's really mad and insulted, "What do you want me to do? That girl even told me that she is a loser and ugly," she said while pointing outside. Bawat salita na lumalabas sa labi niya ay mabigat at puno ng poot. Kaya siguro nagdulot ito ng hindi kaaya-kaayang pangyayari.

"Hindi mo kailangang makipag-away dahil lang sa kaniya," sabi ko. Biglang pumasok sa isipan ko ang poster na binigay ni Sienna sa 'kin noong nakaraang buwan, "Come here," I told her.

Umirap lang siya sa 'kin.

"I said come here, Gab!" matigas kong sambit, "You are getting harder huh? Do you want me to throw all your things?" I asked her. Kinunotan ko siya ng noo. Wala na siyang nagawa kung 'di ang tumayo at nagtungo front seat, "Wear your seatbelt." Utos ko. She rolled her eyes.
