War Between Us ✔ (Completed)

12th Chapter

Playboy

Maaga akong nagising at nag ayos na para hindi mahuli sa klase. Nang matapos ako ay may kumatok sa pintuan ko. Kinuha ko muna ang bag ko saka binuksan ito.

"Good morning Cia!" Si Cha pala,

"good morning too. your up so early huh" Tumango siya.

"Im an early bird you see, its in my blood." Tumango na lamang ako.

"okay na ako, tara na. kaso hindi ko pala alam nag class rooms ko." Ngumiti siya.

"Ill guide you to the office," naku, salamat talaga kay Cha kung hindi mukha akong mababaliw kung wala siya.

Sa unang palapag ng school ay may tatlong pintuan doon. Pumasok kami sa may nakasulat na SCHOOL'S OFFICE.

"Good morning, Im here with the new scholar and student. Im just going to ask her schedule." Tinignan siya nung babae at saka sa akin.

"okay, just hold on a minute." tumayo siya at may kinuha sa isang drawer. "Miss Alicia Hargunio." Aniya.

"yes maam." Kinuha niya ang puting papel at iniabot sa akin.

"this is your sched, this is your locker number, I.D. and uniform. Architect, am I right?"

"Yes, thank you very much." she just nod and sit down again. Umalis na kami doon at  tinungo namin ang isang room na may mga camera and such.

"I.D picture please." sabi ni Cha, tinanguan siya nung lalaki at ,

"just sit over there and Ill be right there with you."

"Just sit over there Cia." I smiled at her and followed. Inayos ko ang buhok ko at nagpractice ngumiti. maya maya ay dumating iyong lalaki. "ready?"

"yes please." Inayos niya ang camera niya at finucos sa akin.

"smile." and so I did.

Halos mag 12 na ng hapon natapos lahat, I have my I.D, uniform and sched.

"next week will be the official start of the class so Ill tour you today." Tumango ako sa kanya.

"Let's eat first? damn, Im starving, and plus its almost lunch time."

natapos naming ikutin ang kalahati at iyong iba ay hindi pa. grabe ang lawak ng school na to.

"okay, and Im so sorry, Im such a bother to you."

"no, of course not. Actually I enjoy your company. Its no big deal." ngumiti ako. Nagtungo na kami sa cafeteria nila pero grabe ang lawak din, mukhang restaurant. Oh, gosh. afford ko ba?

Napalunok ako. Siguro meron namang kaya ng budget ko. Nagorder ng American salad si Cha at ako naman ay iyong Cordon Blue since ayon lang ang pinakamababa dito. Oh gosh, kailangan ko ng trabaho.

"may alam ka bang pwede kong pasukan na part time?" tanong ko ng naka upo na kami.

"why ask?"

"Im not rich you see, I need a job." nahihiya kong sagot.

"oh! I thought...never mind. I can recommend you to the cafe we own just a few blocks away."

"really? oh gosh thanks so much. I really appreciate it." Sobra sobra na ang tulong  niya sa akin. "how old are you again?"

"Im 17." sagot ko. "still young but independent huh?"

"yeah, Im not born with silver spoon like you guys." I confess.

"All I have is brain and my family." napangiti ako. Miss ko na agad sila kahit isang araw ko pa lamang dito. "you miss them right?" I nod.

"this is the first time I was so far from them."

"Oh, I don't know what to say but hey cheer up. after all of  this, your sacrifice will be worth it right?"

Tumango ako at kumain na lamang. Naagaw ang pansin ko ng may pumasok na lalaki, actually grupo sila. iyong nasa likod blonde at matangkad, iyong pangalawa, blonde din at mas matangkad pero ang nasa unahan ang gusto kong murahin ngayon. Fourth Andrew Palanque. dito pala siya nag aaral.

"see them? they're the biggest jerks here. That one in the center is the one Im talking about to you. They're all jerks and playboys." Playboys? mukha nga.

"paano mo sila nakilala?"

"I meet them all in a gathering held by my parents." oh,

"the last guy's name is Clayton Anderson, second one is Lioneer King and last one is Fourth Andrew Palanque. they are all Archi, just like you." bakit? bakit magiging kaklase ko pa sila? oh god! nooo.

"are you okay? you look pale!" nabaling ang atensyon ko kay Cha. "I-im fine." Nagkibit balikat siya at nagpatuloy sa pagkwekwento tungkol sa school. Alas singko ng hapon kami natapos. "are you tired?" Umiling ako. "can we go to your cafe?"

"okay, Ill call mom to tell about it." Naglakad kami papuntang parking lot? Pinindot niya iyong itim na nasa kamay niya at tumunog naman yung kotse na kulay blue na may tatak na Lamborghini. Rich.

"come on." Sumakay na ako. "it's your first time?"

"oh god, yes!" napatawa siya ng makitang manghang mangha ako, this is the first time I ride a fancy car you know? pero napawi ng wala pang ten minutes ay nakarating na kami. ang lapit lang pala.

"don't worry I'll teach you how to drive some time." napangiti ako sa hiya at sinundan siya. "Hi Aunt Carla, this is my friend Alicia. Is there any available place here for her?"

Ngumiti iyong babae at tinignan ako. "do you know how to cook?"

"yes. I bake also."

"I didn't know that!" singit ni Cha. "okay, great. You can be the second chef here since were short handed. where is your sched?"

Binigay ko sa kanya iyong sched ko. "okay, your free on wednesdays, saturdays and sundays only. We can deal with that. you sure?" I nod desperately. "thank you very much!" Ngumiti ako sa kanya at sinabi niya na ang kailangan kong malaman.

Nang pauwi na kami ay "you should cook for me one day. I wanna taste." sabi niya pagkasakay pa lang namin. "of course, or you can just go to your cafe right?" I smiled and she nod.

Today was a bit tiring but it was worth it. I got a job and a greek god friend, how lucky can I get? pero sa gabing iyon ay hindi maalis sa isipan ko na playboy pala ang Fourth na yon. Oo at una kong impression sa kanya pero.... naaalala pa kaya niya ako? Ang tagal na nung huli kaming nagkita kaya siguro impossible rin na maalala pa niya ako.

Ang sabi ni tatay siya ang pangalawa, sino yung panganay? Ilan silang magkakapatid? ugh, teka bakit ko ba iyon iniisip? naku Cia, matulog ka na nga lang.
