"NADINEEEEEEE" Napaupo ako bigla sa kama nung sumigaw yung best friend ko, pumasok siya habang nakasuot na yung uniporme namin
Hindi halatang excited ha? We should've chosen Harvard instead, napaka init dito sa Pinas!
"I look good in these yeah?" The woman who keeps on blabbering in front is Yassi Pressman, british yung accent niya kaya hindi na ako mag tatanong kung bakit dudugo yang ilong ninyo kakausap sa kanya, and I mean it literally.
Sometimes, sa sobrang fluent niya I couldn't even understand a single word she's uttering.
"Even in rags girl, you still look good" I said and gave her a wink, she cheered habang sinusuklay niya ang kanyang buhok, which I adore for it's natural brown shade. Unlike mine, it's color is jet black but a long and healthy one
"I know, kaya stand kana diyan at take a bath na you're so mabaho gosh" Maarte niyang sagot, conyo yang best friend ko pero masasanay na rin kayo
I rolled my eyes and snorted. I hate her conyo vibe, it still triggers the irritation inside of me, and let me tell you ganito na siya since the beginning of our childhood years but I got to admit, she wouldn't be my best friend without this annoying dialect of hers
"Go labas na if you don't want a sampal from me" I mimicked her voice and threw a pillow at her but she managed to dodge it anyway
Sayang
"BITCH" She shouted and giggled, I just rolled my eyes and grabbed my phone on the desk. Gosh remind me, how many times have I rolled my eyes this morning?
750 messages, 800 missed calls
"Putangina" I mumbled and threw my phone on the wall, hearing a loud crack afterwards. I can just buy a new one, God this is infuriating!
Don't blame me, what should I feel? Agang aga but they're already bothering the shit out of me. As if sincere sila, knowing these men? They are only pursuing me with the desire of grasping my luxury.
One of them is Brooklyn Beckham, Jesus Christ! I'm 20 and he's just 16 what the actual fuck. Desperate needs of attaining money, needs desperate measures.
I hop out of my bed and went inside my bathroom, I stripped my clothes off and prepared a bubble bath for me
Ako nga pala Si Nadine Elizabeth Lustre, in my early years I've been trained and taught to be independent and to never trust another person's advices rather than your family and yourself. I became more mature as the years goes by, and handling and overcoming adult problems made me who I am today
At the early age of 20, I am already responsible for the companies and firms that are under my family's legacy, including my fashion line Dine Eliz, which is elevating and increasing in the fashion industry.
My parents are dead, and the worst part is? I still haven't found the people who are behind their murder and that would be the temporary burden and mystery I am carrying right now.
My thoughts drifted away ng marinig ko ang mga malalakas na katok sa pintuan ko, already knowing the person behind it.
"Hoy Nadine go out na gosh my beauty is so naiinip na talaga" Remind niyo nga sa akin na pag babawalin ko na siyang papasukin sa pamamahay ko. Believe me when I say I genuinely love her with all of my heart, but I can't tolerate her squeaking voice everyday!
"Yeah whatever, now shoo! Nakaka irita kang bruha ka!" I shouted, narinig ko naman yung pag singasing niya, kung makikita ko lang siya ngayon baka nag popout na yung gaga
After my bath I went out with a peach cotton towel covering my naked body, I took my uniform out of my closet and wore it
Pag tingin ko sa salamin, tumaas yung isang kilay ko. Hindi ko inexpect na ganito pala ka iksi yung magiging uniporme namin, may blazer pa silang nalalaman at neck tie
Why do Filipinos keep on following the uniforms from the countries that are located above the tropical zone? Don't they understand? We experience different kinds of weather and climate change so why bother following them.
I realized, I shouldn't go out without wearing a facade that can be the perfect disguise para hindi nila mahahalata kung sino ako. Kinuha ko yung fake wig sa drawer at isinuot yun, I also applied some amount of perfume and got my bag and car keys. I stopped in my tracks when I sneezed a loud and terrible one, I shrugged it off as I went out of my room.
Nakita ko kaagad si Yassi na nanonood ng VS Fashion Show, naglakad ako papunta sa kanya at pinatay yung TV
"What! It was already Miranda Kerr Nadz and you turn the bloody hell button off? Fuck you!" Reklamo niya habang nakanguso, I just chuckled and pulled her outside the house
"Let's go baka mahuhuli tayo sa klase. It's our first day, ayaw ko ng detention." Sabi ko at pumasok sa Lamborghini Veneno ko, I bought this bad boy on my 20th birthday, their newest model of course. Si Yassi naman pumasok sa Mercedes Benz niya.
Pinaandar na namin yung mga sasakyan at nag maneho papuntang Avrygrad University, ang creepy ng name but that's okay.
According to the information that we have gathered and the bio data of this institution, only elite and exclusive people study there which is great because I don't want to encounter the paparazzi's again. Daughter and sons of politicians are usually seen in that University, pati na rin ang anak ng mga artista. But mostly came from noble and rich families.
Ng naka park na kami, agad kaming lumabas at sinalubong ng mga matang hindi matatanggal sa mukha at katawan namin. Ganyan naba kami ka ganda para hindi nila matanggihan? Such a disappointment, pati rito ganito parin ang trato ng mga tao sa amin? I expected more, akala ko nga hindi nila kami mapapansin.
Sabay kaming naglakad ni Yas patungong room namin, parang gustong gusto niya yung atensyon na binibigay ng mga iba't ibang estudyante na makakasalubong namin, specially sa mga lalake. Which I'm not surprised, she's a magnet to men.
"Hi Miss"
"Pretty ladies"
"What's your number?"
"Gorgeous"
Hindi ko sila pinansin at nag concentrate nalang sa paglalakad. Ano to high school? That campus dominance is not what I want right now. But Yassi Pressman being her usual self, she acknowledged them all and gave each of them a wink.
Kinilig naman yung mga mukhang unggoy. Bakas sa mga mukha nila na kaya nilang makuha si Yassi ng ganun ganun lang. Knowing my bestfriend, isa lang yung naging boyfriend niya, but sad to say nag break sila. And damn! The bitch was so heart broken, she almost committed suicide. Almost
Nung nakita na namin yung classroom namin biglang tumahimik ang mga ka klase ko. Weirdos. Naging kabado ako saglit na baka nabuking at nakilala nila kami, but thankfully wala. Looking around, the room clearly is surrounded by advance technology. Tatlo yung aircon namin, our tables are made of glass at may sariling kaming laptops sa mga lamesa namin.
"Girl is that James?"
"Omg oo siya nga!" Huh? Sino yun
Lumingon ako sa likod ko at nakinig sa dalawa kong kaklase, tinatanaw nila yung paparating na mga lalake sa labas. Weird, why are they ogling so much?
Halos lahat ng babae na nasa loob ng aming silid aralan ay lumabas, I was unaware of what's happening. Baka may event or what? Umupo nalang ako sa tabi ni Yassi at nakinig ng music habang hinihintay yung prof pero letseng mga babaeng to nonstop yung pag sisiksikan nila
And they call this school a high class one? I doubt that
Sa inis ko, lumabas din ako at nakipag siksikan sa mga babaeng nagsisigawan. Pagtingin ko may tatlong lalakeng pumasok sa gate
Don't tell me campus boy crushes still exist on this campus? And I thought this University is bigger than that, I should have not expected more.
"Shit girl my panty is so lag lag na!" Napatalon ako bigla sa pagsulpot ni Yassi sa gilid ko, hindi ko siya napansin ah
"Gross Yassi, tara na nga masisira ang araw ko dito" Tumango lang siya at sinundan ako not knowing three pairs of eyes were staring at us
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
James POV
"Jesus! They're so noisy!" Reklamo ko at nakapasok na rin sa gate
Pag labas namin biglang nag sigawan ang mga babae. Sometimes? I wonder what it feels like to live a normal life, to be invisible from everybody and enjoy the calmness of a normal life. My parents were both popular actors and actresses on their generation, kaya ito ako ngayon obtaining the legacy.
"Hi James"
"Marco let's date?"
"Andre I love you"
I am flattered to be an ideal man to most women but sometimes? Their disgusting desires is too gross that I myself could not even handle.
With a crowd of girls blocking my sight of the pathway, I roam my eyes around in chance of finding a way to avoid them but halted in surprise when I saw the woman I've been stalking
She has her smug face on but she's still beautiful, I was surprised when she looked at us disgustingly and went away with her best friend
Damn it!
"Relax James, makukuha mo rin siya" Marco said, I just nodded and looked at the spot she left
"Nadine Lustre you're mine, and you will forever be mine."
I smirked at the thought and went away. Knowing this wouldn't be the last time our paths would cross.
