Chapter 8

I pressed my lips together as I walk pass by my parents room, they are  both shouting at each other. These past few days, they have been fighting and I don't know what to do. Their room's door is close, and I know I can't just brag myself inside and get myself involved. As much as I want them not to quarrel, I know I should respect their privacy too.


"I told you not to do it!"


"Iyon lang ang paraan, Lovey!"


"Pero paano kung-"



I sigh and wore my earpiece, kahit nandito na ako sa loob ng kwarto ko, rinig na rinig ko parin sila. I went to my bed and played my favorite song, the song that can make me calm. It's hosanna.


A moment later, I found myself daydreaming about Abraham again. His handsome face, manly and calm voice, his scent, his everything. That even in my dream... he was there.



I'm smitten...




Pagkagising ko ay wala na sila Mommy and Daddy, two maids helped me prepare my stuffs and all for school. And I can't help but feel scared. Is this the beginning of them having no time for me anymore? Gaya ng kadalasang nangyayari sa iba? Iyong wala ng oras sa akin ang parents ko dahil sa trabaho? I don't like that.





"Ma'am Heart, magdadala ka ba ng tyokolate ngayon?" Tanong ng matandang kasambahay namin.





Tiningnan ko ang tyokolateng hawak niya, it's the chocolates I bought last week, and of course it's for Abraham.






I nodded and let the maid put the chocolates inside my bag, I'm not acting like a spoiled brat, I just don't have enough energy to do anything. I don't want my parents arguing, and most of all, I don't like what's happening. I rather starve than having both of my dad and mom being like this. I don't need expensive clothes, jewelries, shoes, bags and all that, what I need is them.



But I know they won't understand me, they think that they should do everything to give me a perfect life. But I really don't need that life they're trying to give me, I'm fine being average.



"Masama ang timpla mo ngayon, ah?"




I narrowed my eyes to Laxus, he was sitting on the chair opposite to mine, it's lunch time. Cedric was coming, pero baka mauuna na kaming kumain ni Laxus, he's been very busy, siguro nga hindi rin madaling maging matalino.




"My parents... nag-aaway nanaman sila." I admitted.



Nawala ang mapaglaro niyang ngisi at umayos na ng upo. "I thought it's because of that Abraham again."




Umiling ako. It's has nothing to do with Abraham. Akala ko kanina, mawawala ang lungkot ko kapag nakita ko siya. Well, nawala naman pero hindi totally. Seeing him with Eureka doesn't help.



Naabutan ko kasi siyang kausap si Eureka kanina sa classroom nila, so I ended up giving Laxus the chocolate that was originally meant for him.



"Hmm, I saw your parents entering the ACAH building. Mga Ashley pala ang business partner nila?"





I didn't react. Di ko rin alam. To be honest, I have no idea at all. Wala naman silang nababanggit, di rin naman ako nagtatanong.






Ilang saglit pay dumating na si Cedric, he was early than what I have expected. Sila ni Laxus ang nag-order ng mga pagkain namin kaya naiwan akong mag-isa sa table namin. I automatically looked at the entrance when I heard my fellow students shriek and gossips. The Ashleys are here.
