Chapter 13
Court

Late na ako magising ngayon. Halos mahulog ako sa kama ko ng maalalang may pasok ako ngayon. Agad akong pumasok ng CR para makaligo. Lagi naman akong late kaya lagi din akong iniiwan ni kuya.

Eight o'clock kami nakauwi kagabi pero ala una na ata ako nakatulog. I can't stop thinking what happened yesterday. Para akong nalutang sa saya. Paulit ulit nag re-relplay sakin ang nangyari. At ang resulta nagka eyebags ako ngayon.

I put some light make up para matabunan ang eyebags ko. Nang bumaba ako nakita ko si dad sa dinning. He's drinking his coffee while he's busy with his computer.

"Felise, honey. We will be meeting with some client over dinner. I want you ready when I got home alright?" Ani ni dad.

Oh for sure its a tycoon. Ganun naman lagi pag malaki ang cliente laging dapat kumpleto. Wait, bakit ako lang? I think kuya is up for the dinner. Lagi siyang nirereto sa mga anak ng bussiness tycoons. The tradition is still up until now.

Tho hindi naman siya pinipilit nina mom and dad but he doesnt like the idea. I doubt he'll come over.

"Yes dad. Sure. Uhh, is Kuya Rence coming? And where's mom by the way." I asked.

Sinulyapan ako ni dad. He knows what I'm thinking.

"He must. He doesn't have to worry. The tycoon doesn't have a daughter. And your mom left early. She have to visit your tita lenny. She's at the hospital." 

Natigilan ako. What?

"Why what happen to tita dad?"

"I still didn't know. We'll visit her sometime. I'm still kinda busy."

Nagkibit balikat lang ako. I put some chicken ham in my bread and drink the glass of milk. I have no time to stay for breakfast. I'm late.

"Dad. I'm going. Late na ako." I kissed his cheeks.

"Okay take care honey. By the way, Gray is outside waiting for you. Don't make him wait nakakahiya."

"What dad?!"

Gray is outside? Hindi ko alam! Oh my. I immediately run out and saw Gray leaning at his car. His hair is disheveled but he's still handsome. Ewan ko pero lalo siyang gumwapo.

He stood straight the moment our eyes met. Ang aga aga nagwawala na yung mga paruparu sa akin. I walked towards him kahit sobrang kaba ko na.

"Good morning miss." He greeted.

"Uhmm... M-morning" ugh! Umayos ka nga Felise "lets go?"

Kumunot ang noo niya sa akin. He's like thinking of something. Now what?

"Lets go Gray! Were late." I snapped.

Tumango naman siya at inilahad ang front seat sa akin. He closed the door gently at umikot siya sa drivers seat. Nanatiling kunot ang noo niya na parang may kung anong iniisip.

Nang makapasok na siya sa sasakyan ay tiningnan niya ako. Ano bang problema neto? His intense gaze makes me feel so conscious about my self.

"Whats the problem?" I finally spilled it.

"You didn't eat your breakfast, did you?" So that is what bothers him huh?

"I-I eat my breakfast." I lied.

Though I had a bread and a glass of milk gutom pa ako. But I don't want him waiting. Nakakahiya. And if I will tell him the truth pipilitin niya lang ako kumain.

He's still staring at me. Tila alam niyang nagsisinungaling ako. That's half true!

"Lets go Gray. I'm five minutes late for my first class." I convinced him.
