Chapter 80: Someone

Erika's Pov

['The number you have dialed is either unattended or out of coverage area. Please try your call later']

"Why aren't you picking up?" 

I called him again but there was no answer. So out of frustration, I threw my phone on the bed.

Aish! Ano ba kasing ginagawa nung Joven na yun?! Why isn't he answering my calls?

He just texted me earlier and he said na may nahanap na siyang university na papasukan niya. And that is why I am calling him para tanungin ko kung saan ba siya papasok. I'm dead curious here!

Bigla namang nagring ang aking cellphone kaya't agad na kinuha ko iyon. 

I was actually excited coz I was expecting that the caller was Joven but sadly, it was just Isaac.

["Hello?"] I answered.

["Hey Erika? We're about to hang out right? And you said that you want Khiena to join us but look. She just slammed her door on me!"]

I laughed. 

["What's so funny Erika?! Just come here at my place at ikaw kumausap sa kanya! Ayaw niya akong pagbuksan ng pinto"]

["Okay okay. I'll go there. But seriously? She slammed her door on you?! My! My! That's new mr. Dravenz"] natatawang sabi ko.

Hindi ko na pinatagal ang tawag dahil pupunta na rin naman na ako dun. 

Sigh. I'll make sure that Khiena will come with us today! And I'll make sure that she'll wear her best! 

Para may bago na naman siyang pwedeng maipost sa instagram niya. Her likes and followers were rising ever since she posted her first photo of herself!

And who knows? Baka mahila siya ng ilang modeling agencies, right?

I want her to be my replacement in the agency since she's perfect to be a model! Pero nakadepende pa rin talaga sa kanya if she'll be a model.

Khiena's Pov

"Eh? Pero hindi ako nagsusuot niyan---" Erika cut me off.

"Binili ito ni Tita Clera para suotin mo, hindi para istock lang! So wear it! Whether you like it or not, you'll wear it!" 

Napabuntong hininga at napailing na lang ako nang wala na akong nagawa.

Ano ang ipinasuot niya sa akin?

White off shoulders, blue skinny jeans, and a high heeled black boots.

"Perfect! And tanggalin mo yang tali ng buhok mo. Dapat nakalugay lang yang buhok mo" Erika said.

Lumapit naman siya sa akin at nilagyan niya pa ako ng kaunting liptint.

Nang handa na kami ay lumabas na kami ng kwarto at nakita namin doon si Zav na nakasandal sa pader.

"Nice. You look like a real girl Khiena--" I cut him off.

"So sinasabi mo talaga na hindi ako tunay na babae?"

And here we go again....

A never ending fight?

We're here at the mall to buy some school materials we might need.
