"What?"
Nilingon nya ako ng marinig ang gulat kong boses.
"Why are you surprise again? Don't tell me you like him?" Nginisian nya ako
"N-No way!It's not like that." Nahiga ako ulit.
"Yeah. Your right. But if you like him, he wont like you back. That man is crazy in love with her" sabi nya pa.
"T-there's no way I'll like that guy" utal na tanggi ko.
"Eh bat ka nauutal?" Nakangising tanong nya.
Shit! Hindi ko din alam! And why the heck am I curious about this girl?!
"I'm telling you I don't like him" tanggi ko ulit.
"Ah whatever~" tinignan nya ako na para bang nang aasar sya.
"Anywaysss. Tell me how did you know to fight?!" Pag iiba nya ng topic.
Why is she so talkative? Nakalimutan nya na ba kung anong klaseng relasyon meron kami?
"Why do you want to know?"
"Can't I just ask a question without you asking a question again and again? What's wrong with your brain?" Tila ba inis na aniya
Hindi ako sumagot.
"Okay fine! I was just curious and you look c-cool earlier so....j-just tell me okay!" Inismiran nya ako
"Can we sleep already?" Sabi ko para mas lalo syang mainis.
Kita ko ang pag irap nya sa ere.
"Urrrgh! Just tell me the reason first! "
Tumawa ako.
"Alright. I started to know how to fight when I was still a kid. Around 10 years old I think? And I'm was an athlete in my previous school " kwento ko
"What sport did you belong?"
"Boxing club"
"Woaah~ You know how to do a jab?"
Tumango ako.
[A/N: Jab is a quick , sharp blow specially with a fist.]
"Then why didn't you use it earlier when you fought those bastards?"
"I hate using my boxing skills outside the school" matamang sagot ko.
"Your somewhat responsible huh." tumawa sya.
"If you are a boxer, how the heck are you good in kicking? Did you do kick boxing too? "
"No. I practice taekwondo in the past. But I also tried doing kickboxing but It only last for almost two months"
"Is that so?"
I think she's enjoying this conversation but I am so sleepy that I can't really focus in the topic.
"Are you a infighter or outfighter?"
"Infighter"
"Can you show me how to do a jab?"
"I'll show it to you next time."
"Tsk! Okay fine!" I can already see her pouting.
"Why did you learn those kind of thing?"
"Hmm? When I was a kid. I got kidnapped so my parents teached me how to fight"
"What do you mean? Who's stupid enough to kidnap you? Are you some kind of big time for them to kidnap you?" Rinig ko ang pag tawa nya.
Dahil sa sinabi nya ay mabilis kong naimulat ang mga mata ko.
"I-I-I mean... I got into a small fight so my parents teached me how to fight back" mabilis na pagtatama ko sa sinabi ko
"Can you do a Brazilian kick?"
"I think so"
"Then....blah blah blah blah--"
Hindi ko na narinig kong ano pa ang sunod nyang sinabi dahil tuluyan na akong hinila ng antok.
Kinabukasan ay nagising ako dahil feeling ko ay hindi ako makahinga.
Dahan dahan kong inimulat ang mga mata ko.
Pagkamulat ko ay mukha agad ni Shield ang bumungad sa akin.
Mahigpit syang nakayakap sa akin habang mahimbing na natutulog.
Sandali akong sumulyap sa labas.
I don't know what time is it. We should get up and go back to our house.
"Hey?Wake up" tinapik tapik ko ang pisngi nya
"Hoy!" Sabi ko pa ng hindi man lang sya gumalaw.
Nagsalubong ang magkabila kong kilay bago sya malakas na sinampal sa mukha.
"O-Ouch! What the fuck!" Mura nya.
"Get off me and wake up already"
Dahil sa sinabi ko ay mabilis syang kumawala sa pagkakayakap sa akin.
"I didn't know that you like girls"nginisian ko sya
Mabilis nya naman akong inirapan.
"F*ck off" inis na aniya nya
Matapos ang bangayan namin ay sabay na kaming lumabas ng kwarto.
Pagka baba namin sa sala ay kinuha ko agad ang bag ko.
"Magandang umaga Blake" bati sa akin ni Inang.
"Magandang umaga din ho ,Inang. Asan po si Chief?" Tanong ko
"Aba'y ayun humihilik pa"
Sabay kaming tumawa.
"Hindi na po kami magtatagal Inang. Uuwi na ho kami" sabi ko
"WHAT?!!" gulat na tanong ni Shield
"Don't shout!"
"What do you mean? Sinong aalis? Can't you see my face? And what I'm currently wearing?" Tinaasan nya ako ng kilay
"I can see it. I'm not blind"
"Kita mo naman pala. Let me take a bath first, change my clothes and eat breakfast" she insisted
"Are you done talking? Then if you don't want to go home, stay here" ani ko
"Are you nuts? How can I stay here?"
"Then let's go"
"Anong lets go? Kakagising lang natin! I didn't even drink water at saka may muta ka pa sa mata oh" tinuro nya ang mata ko
"Stop joking and get ready"
Inismiran nya ako
"Oo nga naman Blake. Kumain muna kayo. Ang aga aga pa at saka hindi pa gising si Mikey at ang tatay"
Sabay kaming napalingon kay Inang.
Napangiti si Shield dahil sa narinig.
"See? Inang is right. We should eat breakfast first"
"But.."
"Let's go Inang. I'll help you prepare the dishes" putol ni Shield sa sasabihin ko saka niyakap ang braso ni Inang bago sila pumuntang kusina.
Kita ko pa ang pasimple nyang pag ngisi na para bang nang aasar.
Tsk! So childish.
"Blake? Hindi pa namin alam kung anong pangalan ng kasama mo" sabi ni Inang habang kumakain kami.
"Oo nga ate Blake" ani pa ni Mikey na bahagya pang namula.
Oh. What is this?
"This is Shield--"
"The heck! Stop changing my name, can you!"
"Stop cussing in front of them"mahinang bulong ko sa kanya
Hindi nya ako pinansin.
"My name's Sheele" pakilala nya
"Napakagandang pangalan naman." Ngumiti si Inang
"Of course" mayabang na sabi nya
*pak!*
"A-aray!" Reklamo nya ng sipain ko ang paa nya
"Tss napaka reklamador talaga" rinig kong bulong nya matapos akong irapan.
She act like a younger sister of mine. A spoiled brat sister.
"Ate? Ate?" Mahinang bulong sa akin ni Mikey
"Pwede ko bang mahingi ang number ni Sheele?" Bulong nya
Napahinto ako sa pagnguya saka sya nilingon.
I knew it. He like Shield.
"Wala akong number nya. Ask her before we leave later" ngumiti ako
Sunod sunod syang tumango.
Matapos naming kumain, maligo at magbihis ay hinatid na kami nila Chief sa high way kung saan may dumadaang sasakyan.
"Pwede ko naman kayong ihatid sa bahay nyo Blake" ani Chief
"Are you kidding me? Your planning to send us off using this cheap garbage-- a-aah! " Napadaing sya ng sikuin ko bigla ang gilid nya
"Wag na ho Chief. Medyo malayo layo pa ho ang byahe nyo kung ihahatid nyo pa kami. At saka may trabaho pa po kayo" tanggi ko
"Ganun ba. Sige, ikaw ang bahala"
Bumaba na kami sa sasakyan ni Chief.
Pagkababa namin ay sumunod si Mikey.
"Ihahatid ko lang ho sila sa kabilang kanto, Itay" paalam ni Mikey kay Chief.
Pagkadating namin sa kanto ay hinarap ko agad si Shield.
"Hoy. May itatanong daw itong si Mikey" ani ko
"Ano namang itatanong nya?"
Tinignan nya si Mikey na ngayon ay hindi makatingin ng deretso sa kanya.
"What?" Mataray na tanong ni Shield.
Now that they are standing together, I can say that they suit each other. A shy type and brat.
Mikey may be 3 years younger than Shield but age doest matter in our generation.
Mikey's a lot taller than Shield and since Shield is small, the height difference is good enough.
"P-P-P-Pwede ko bang mahingi ang number mo?" Utal na tanong ni Mikey.
Sandaling natigilan si Shield saka ako sinulyapan.
"Is this brat shitting on me right now?" Tanong nya
Napabuntong hininga ako.
"His not shitting on you idiot. His hitting on you. Sumubra ka ng S"
"What?" Medyo nagulat pa sya
"Your supposedly asking my social media account. Not my number. Your so old fashion despite your age" tumaas pa ng bahagya ang kilay nya.
Kita ko ang pagbagsak ng magkabilang balikat ni Mikey.
"But...since your cute I'll give you my number" walang ganang sabi nya pa sabay kuha ng card nya mula sa bag nya.
Matapos nya itong iabot kay Mikey ay tumalikod na ito.
Umaliwalas naman ang mukha ni Mikey.
"S-s-salamat" nahiya pa sya
Kumaway muna ako kay Mikey saka sinundan si Shield.
Pagdating namin sa terminal ng bus ay reklamo agad ni Shield ang narinig ko.
"Are you f*cking joking?! What is this?"
"A terminal"
"I know. But why are we here?"
"Bakit? Ayaw mong umuwi?"
"I want to go home but why are we here?!" Inis pang tanong nya
"We're going to ride a bus"
"WHAT?!!"
"I- I thought we're riding a taxi or a private car"
"Walang taxi dito. At saka san naman ako kukuha ng private na sasakyan?" Inis na ani ko
Hanggang sa pasok namin sa bus at pag upo sa upuan namin ay reklamo padin sya ng reklamo.
"This is insane! I, Sheele Lowel is currently riding a cheap bus. What the hell"
"Can you please shut up"
"How can I shut my mouth up? Do you even know what other people think if they saw me riding this shit?"
Hindi na ako nagsalita pa. Hinayaan ko nalang syang mag reklamo.
"And what if the Young Mistress of Castred family see me? Waaah pag nangyari yun. Tatalon talaga ako sa labas"
Napatingin ako sa kanya dahil sa narinig.
"How..did you know her?" Tanong ko
"Huuuuh?! Sinong tanga ang hindi nakakakilala sa kanya?" Ramdam ko ang inis sa boses nya.
"Bakit ka tatalon pag nakita kanya?"
"That's none of your business!" Inirapan nya pa ako.
She should just kill her self since I already saw her riding a bus.
And it's actually my business because the person she's talking about is me.
