Chapter 15

After awhile the food arrived and my mouth watered just by the smell. It smells so good but I frowned when I saw the shrimp. Hindi nabalatan ateng, yung tempura lang ang walang balat na shrimp kaya napanguso ako.

Jaze pushed the two plates of tempura sa harapan ko at kinuha naman niya yung buttered shrimp at cajun sakaniya.

He rolled the sleeves of his white long sleeved polo up to his elbows and took his watch off.

"Can you put this po sa bag ko?" He handed me the watch as I nodded and took the watch from his hand.

He started peeling the shrimps as I pursed my lips.

"You know you don't have to do that." I told him as he scoffed.

"As if na gaganahan ka pa na kumain kapag ikaw mismo ang magbabalat ng kakainin mo." He said as I sighed.

"Sabagay." I sighed and took a tempura with the fork and tasted it.

So freaking delicious! Hinding hindi talaga ako magsasawa sa shrimp.

I shoved the whole piece in my mouth and chewed as I took another piece for Jaze.

"Say ah, honey." I told Jaze and brought the fork to his mouth.

He opened his mouth and ate the tempura while peeling the shrimps.

"You want rice?" I asked as he nodded without looking at me. Focus na focus sa pagbalat ng shrimp.

Well, I am surprised, palagi kase na tempura ang inoorder ko kapag gusto ko ng shrimp because it's too much work kapag babalatan ko pa. It's too much work, mawawalan lang ako ng gana kapag ganoon.

Then I remembered what Papa told me noong una nilang nakilala si Jaze.

'Lumaki iyang boyfriend mo na ginagawa ang lahat para sakaniya kaya hindi naman maganda kapag inutos utusan mo lang.'

I looked at Jaze and pouted.

"Papa said na nagagawa lahat para sa iyo, so you must not be used to doing this." I suddenly said as he looked at me.

"Yeah. And I want you to experience that now. I know that growing up you were used to doing everything for everyone given the fact that you're the eldest. Now, let me do the honor of doing everything for you, yes?" He said and I felt like my heart was melting for this guy.

Down bad na ako pare, sobrang pafall ba naman.

"Anong uniform niyo noon sa school niyo sa LU?" I suddenly asked him.

We're at his condo right now, and I was laying on his lap while he was playing on his phone.

"Long sleeves na polo with the badge of KCU on the upper left part. Tapos neck tie na blue with another badge of KCU on the bottom part, then a coat na midnight blue. Slacks na midnight blue din. That was type A that we wear on Mondays and Thursdays. Type B was without the coat that should be worn on Tuesdays and Fridays. Type C was the PE uniform which was a white tshirt na may KCU badge sa upper left part and sa likod was the surname used only on Wednesdays." He explained thoroughly as I pouted.

"Wala kayong free day?" I asked pertaining to the day where they don't have to use uniforms as he shaked his head.

"Nope." He said with a 'pop' as I nodded.

"Pero naiimagine ko yung uniform niyo ang fancy. Private diba?" Tanong ko ulit at tumango naman siya.

"Yeah, Mommy wanted me to study there because my friend did too and so it happened." Sabi niya kaya napatango ako.
