SNIPPET OF A FAIRYTALE

SEMBREAK 2

He nodded at me.
Nasa 15th question na yata kami, when I saw two familiar figures sitting three tables away from us.

"Zo si Kuya Zion ba yon?" Ako

Napalingon si Zoey sa likuran nya.

"O nga no. Sino yung---" Zoey

"Parang si..." I couldn't see the face of the girl kase nakatalikod sya samin.

Tumayo na sila at naglakad papuntang exit.

"Ate Jads??" Ako

"Arci?? What are you doing here?" Parang may panic sa mata ni Ate. May tinago pa syang envelope sa likuran nya.

"We ate lunch, bakit magkasama kayo Kuya?" Zoey's talking to his older brother, Kuya Zion.

"We-We ate lunch too." Obvious na nagulat sila samin pero bakit parang kabang kaba sila?

My sister and Kuya Zion were classmates during highschool. They were in a relationship before pero nagkahiwalay sila ng school nung college. At hindi naman nagsasabi si Ate na nagkabalikan pala sila.

"Ate Jads? What's that?" I eyed her envelope

"Ha? W-Wala... Term.. papers!" She stuttered

But in a one swift movement the envelope is in Zoey's hands already.

He opened it bago pa naagaw ni Kuya Zion.

"What is the meaning of this?!" Zoey raised a picture of an ultrasound.

"Ate Jads? You're...You're pregnant??" I managed to mumble.

She just nodded at me and cried.

"Does Mama know?" Ako

"No... And please don't tell her... Not even Ate Yzel. Please Arci?" she pleaded

I'm never good in handling this kind of problem but I do think I have no choice. Sigurado puno ng drama at pagtatakip ang sembreak ko.

"Aray bi! Ouch! Tama na! Huhuhu!"
Seany is sitting on the floor while I'm sitting on my bed, my legs on his shoulders while I'm ironing his hair

"Don't move! I might burn your ears." Ako

"Bakit ba kinukulot mo pa ko? Eh ang ikli kaya ng ng buhok ko?" Sean complains

I cup his chin and made him looked at me.

"Coz this makes me happy baby? Don't you want me to be happy?" I pouted

"Ugh! Don't pout at me. :( Alam mo naman wala akong magagawa eh." Sean

"Just let me finish this. Then we're going out!" I smiled at him

"Bi?"

"Yeah?" Ako

"Pwede bang bawasan mo yung english mo minsan? Nakakadugo eh." Sean

I frowned at him.

"Seriously? Pinoproblema mo yon? Nagtatagalog naman ako ah!" I retorted

"Oo nga... Kaso once in blue moon lang yon. Pucha! Ouch! Roxanne!" Napahawak sya sa may left ear nya

"You deserved that!" I got up and walked to the window.

"Sakiiiiit!" Sean said, still rubbing his ear. "Labas na lang tayo? Ang tagal kaya nating di nakapagdate." Sean beamed at me.

"Okay but we're not watching a movie..." I crossed my arms

"Sure. Coz look what I've got..." he raised two tickets from his pocket
