PLUNDERER CHIC (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR

"Hmm for a mother." Tanging sagot ko.

Ngumiti naman siya sakin at pinasunod ako sa kaniya. May itinuro siyang mga jewelries sakin. And a pair of earrings and necklace caught my attention.

"Just a moment ma'am, I'll prepare your jewelry." Nakangiting sabi nito ulit sa akin.

Tumango lang ako at nag tingin-tingin sa ibang jewelries.

"Oh my... Is that you Elshein?"
Napasulyap naman ako sa taong biglang dumating.

"Wow, I didn't recognize you. What a surprise to see you here." Nakangiti nitong sabi sakin at tiningnan ako mula ulo hanggang paa.

Napairap nalang ako dahil sa ginawa niya.

"You look a bit nice without eyeglasses... And... Nicer in your current get-up. Why are you wearing eyeglasses at school? Malabo ba eyes mo?" Sunod sunod niyang sabi at tanong. But I didn't bother to answer her questions.

"Hmm. You look nicer today than at school that you always look ahmm, cheap?. No offense ha, pero nakaka-sira ng fashion ang eyeglasses and always jeans and shirt na naka tuck-in pa."

Napairap naman ako dahil sa mga walang kwentang sinasabi niya.

"Anyway, what are you doing here nga pala?" Another question from her while she's looking at the displayed jewelry infront of us.

"Are you doing some canvassing?" Natatawa niyang sabi at sumulyap pa sakin.
"How much is that?" Tanong niya naman sa saleslady.

"Ahm, it cost 100,000 ma'am." Dinig kong sagot sa kaniya nong saleslady.

"Oh~ it's so expensive just for a pair of earrings, right Elshein?" Tanong ni sakin.
"But I don't like the design, it looks cheap than the price, is there any more?" Tanong niya ulit sa saleslady.

Napairap naman ako at napatingin lang sa akin ang saleslady na kausap niya.

"You know what Ellejah. Choose the very expensive jewelry they sell. It will really suits you, for sure your attitude will  be stored by them... At least you look really good and not cheap." Nakangiti kong sabi sa kaniya.

Kunot noong lumingon naman siya sa akin.

"Excuse me, ma'am." Then the saleslady who accompanied me earlier went on my way while smiling really wide.

"Here's your jewelries. It cost 300,000 pesos." Nakangiti nitong sabi habang hawang ang isang paper bag.

Nakita ko namang napatunganga lang si Ellejah habang nakatingin sa paper bag.

"Here, I will pay with my card." Sabi ko sa saleslady.

"Sure ma'am!" Nakangiti niyang inabot ang black card na inilabas ko.

Napatingin naman ako kay Ellejah na medjo nakanganga habang nakatingin sakin.

I just smiled at her at hinintay ay card ko.

"Here ma'am. Thank you, please come again." Masiglang sabi nong saleslady. At inabot ang card and ang paper bag sakin.

I just smiled at them and walked away. I just chuckled when I heard no response from Ellejah.

Tsk. What a joke.

I immediately went home and had my lunch with the Zel, Blake, and Clayd. Tinanong nila kung ano ang binili ko so I just told them about the jewelry I bought.

After that ay nag start na ako mag prepare.

It was already 5:40 went I went downstairs. I decided to take my leave before six since it took thirty minutes until I reach Joellen's home.
