"I'm not a kid anymore, mom." Inis kong sabi.

I'm arguing with my mom right now. Nakakainis na kasi yung pagiging protective nila. Gusto nilang may body guards na nakasunod sa akin sa Academy, na may sarili akong driver na ihahatid sundo ako, at ang malala pa ay may nutritionist pa. I know that's a typical and normal thing for rich teens, but mine is completely different. The bodyguard thing is the worst! Out of the hundred body guards they hired for me, half of them were disguised as one of the cafeteria's staff, one of the professors, the academy's staff, and even as a student! What the fuck was that? Am I not allowed to enjoy my life without those eyes watching how I move and act? Papayag naman ako na may bodyguards, personal drivers, or whatever that is, but what they did was just too much for me to handle. Hindi ako maka move on dahil kahapon lang ay nalaman ko na ang isa sa mga bodyguards ko ay kasection ko at nagpapanggap na beki na may galit sa akin. Tropa pa niya sila Shally na matagal ng may galit sa akin, wth.

What the hell am I? A fucking infant?

Feeling ko tuloy hindi ako malaya kahit nasa labas ako ng mansion. Laging may nakasunod sa akin habang pinapanood at binabantayan lagi ang mga kilos ko. Sinong hindi maiinis?

"But sweety, this is for your own safety." Mom answered as she held my right hand while her other hand was putting on a velvet lipstick from my cosmetic company on her lips. She plumped her lips before looking in my direction, at the staircase with Butler Lee standing at my back.

"Naiintindihan ko naman, Mom. Pero kasi sobra na." Inis na wika ko bago nagsimulang maglakad pababa ng hagdan habang si Butler Lee naman ay nakasunod lang sa akin.

"It's not like someone's going to steal me away from you and Dad." Natatawang sabi ko bago ko lingunin si Butler Lee. "You're not going with me, Butler Lee. One of my terror professors hates you around. " I stated a fact. Yes, that's a fact. I don't know her name, but she really hates it when Butler Lee is around. Maybe she's just shy.

"Sige, sasabihan ko si Samuel na patigilin na ang iba mong bodyguards, pero ang iba sa kanila ay pasikreto ka pa din na susundan. That's final. " Sagot ni Mom bago tumayo na at kinuha ang Fendi handbag niya. Lumapit muna siya sa akin para humalik sa pisngi ko at yumakap, "I'll leave for Versace's fashion show on Friday." aniya bago kinausap si Butler Lee. Pagkatapos nilang magusap ay lumapit muna siya sa akin para magpaalam bago umalis na.

Hindi na ako umangal pa sa sinabi niya dahil sa totoo lang ay maayos at desente na 'yon para sa akin kesa naman lahat ay nagpapanggap pang ibang tao mapanood lang ang bawat galaw at kilos ko ng wala man lang akong kaalam alam. Hindi ako komportable sa ganiyan na bagay, I'd rather go to school with them tailing me from behind instead of that.

Alam kong nakasunod sa akin ang Butler ko kaya tumigil ako dahilan para tumigil rin siya.

Sinimangutan ko siya. "Butler Lee!"

Natawa siya. "Alright. Hindi na ako susunod. " But before letting me leave, He spoke. "Can I have a minute with you, young lady?" He asked.

Nilingon ko siya, "Sure. What is it?" Nakangiting tanong ko.

"We'll pick you up later earlier than the usual time we do. Is it okay with you?"

Sandaling napakunot ang noo ko, "Uh, I guess I don't have a choice. Sure." Sagot ko. "Is there a problem? What happened?" Hindi ko na napigilang mag tanong.

He smiled, "You'll meet someone privately later. My lady told me to assist you because she can't." He explained. So, that's the tea between Mom and Butler Lee earlier. In the end, I ended up agreeing as I don't have a choice anyway.
