Irresistible Pulchritude

Chapter 6

MINASAHE niya ang ulo niya nang makita na naman ang kapatid sa paaralan. He was playing with kids as if he had no other intention, it makes him look innocent. When in fact, her brother was silently observing, no, binabantayan na siya nito na parang siya ang mas bata sa kanilang dalawa!

Palagi itong nasa tabi niya at hindi man lang umaalis. Maliban na lang kung may pasok ito, which was ilang oras lang!

"Ma'am, dapat talaga laging nasa tabi niyo si Sir Ky para may maisagot kami agad!"

Khaila glanced at her student and answered, "Hindi kayo makikinig sa akin kung wala itong kapatid ko ganon?" biro niya.

"Ma'am, kasi naman, laging sa mga lalaki na lang ang may puntos sa recitation kasi inspired sayo." Pagrereklamo ng mga babae sa klase niya.

Ky was sitting comfortably beside the teacher table and laughed shakily. Nang tingnan niya ito ay agad itong tumigil at tinikom ang bibig.

Hindi itatanggi ni Khaila na masigla ang klase niya kapag kasama ang kapatid, but some of her students were not listening to her. Nakatitig lang ang mga ito sa kapatid niyang pinag-aaralan ang lesson plan niya.

Nang matapos naman ang klase niya, si Ky mismo ang nagliligpit sa mga gamit niya at nagbitbit.

"Wala ka bang ibang ginagawa? Walang activities sa school? Kahit ano?" sunod-sunod na tanong niya sa kapatid.

Ky shook his head before answering, "I am a responsible student, Ate. Syempre, tapos ko na lahat ng mga ginagawa namin bago kita puntahan dito."

"Palagi?" nakangiwi na sagot niya.

"Yes, Ate. Palagi."

"You… You're dating someone, right?" Binalingan niya si Ky. "Iyong bata?"

"Bata?!" Ky exclaimed. He shook his head and added, "She's not that young. Baka may makarinig sayo, mabigla tayo dito may posas na ang mga pulso ko."

She laughed at his answer. For her, she's still young for her brother. Ky was in 3rd year, and that girl was in grade 12. Sa tingin niya ay nag eighteen pa lang ito.

"So? What happened?" Khaila asked. She's curious.

Ky sighed. "Guess what, Ate?"

Khaila hummed.

"She ghosted me."

Khaila's jaw nearly dropped on the floor at what she heard.

"No way! For real?!" Nanlalaki ang mga mata na tanong niya sa kapatid. There's no way a fine lady would dare to ghost her brother. Not Kyrst Miller!

Her brother smiled as he nodded his head. "Lesson learned. Don't date someone who dated a guy for years. Masakit siya, slight."

"I've heard someone ghosted you? Deserved."

Pareho silang nagulat ni Ky nang bigla na lang sumulpot ang isa pa nilang kapatid. Tally was still wearing her school uniform.

"Bakit ka nandito?" Iritado agad na tanong ni Ky.

"Ikaw? Bakit ka nandito?" balik tanong ni Tally. Smirking smugly at Ky.

"Binabantayan si Ate. Bakit ba?" Ky angrily hissed.

Tumaas ang kilay nito at mabilis na yumakap sa braso niya. "Babantayan ko na rin si Ate. Tsaka yung gwapo niyang crush."

"Tally!" suway niya sa kapatid dahil baka may makarinig dito.

"Hindi gwapo 'yon!" Ky hissed.

"Gwapo. Malabo ang mata mo, tingnan mo, hindi mo nakita na mahal pa pala ex niya. Boo!" Tally teased Ky.
