Chapter 12: Quarantine

I'm still looking at my watch. 10 minutes more at papasok na kami sa eroplano. 

My 1 week there will be boring, I guess. Well I have still time to discover my Father's secret. At isa pa, walang alam si Miss Jenny tungkol sa kwintas na ibinigay ni Vence sa kanya, her boyfriend. Wala siyang alam kung saan ito binili o pinagawa o may kinalaman ba siya sa Underground Business. Dahil ang alam lang niya, Vence was an old gangster before in his high school days. 

And that was make me intrigue at nagtulak sa napupukaw kong karimlan. Vence might know about the Mafia or should it say Underground Business. Sometimes gangster are connected to mafia specially when it comes to their what we call needs. Kaso wala raw siya sa Pilipinas, nasa ibang bansa ito na hindi alam ni Miss Jenny kung saang lupalop ng bansa nagbakasyon ito. 

Bakit hindi niya alam na may karapatan naman siyang malaman since girlfriend siya ng lalaki?

Mmmm. Kasi may itinatago nga si Vence. 

"Let's go, Charity."

Napalingon naman ako sa tumawag sa akin. Kasabay ng tunog ng bell at ang pagtawag ni Kuya sa akin ay hudyat na ng paglisan namin sa bansa.

All my bags are packed
I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breakin' its early morn
The taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go

I'm leaving on a jet plane

Ah ah ah ah

Leaving on a jet plane

Ah ah ah ah

Leaving on a jet plane

I am sitting on my passenger seat on the window side while watching the rain starts to fall as the clouds were darker than ago, and the day was gettin' dark too.

Bakit ba ang meany ng music rito sa plane, magpapatugtog na nga lang ganito pa. Hindi naman ako aalis dahil sa mahal ko ah. Well, I will miss Gyeong for 1 week. 

And yeah, as well as Min. 

Naku kapag nandito si Gyeong sigurado akong kukutyain ako na naman ako non kapag nalaman niyang namimiss ko si Min.

I looked at my watch. 6:30 na pala. Lumingon ako sa direksiyon ni Kuya na nakatulog na pala.

Kung hindi ko siya kapatid, magkakagusto ako sa kanya, kung titignan mo ng maigi lalo't sa malapitan napakaperfect ang tangos ng kanyang ilong, ang maamo niyang mukha at kissable lips nito. Hahaha. That was really funny. Pero I'm pretty sure, kung hindi kami magkapatid he would be my special someone. Especially that my brother will take care of you no matter what.

Kahit napakamisteryoso ni Kuya, napakabait naman niya pagdating sa pag-aalaga sa akin. Hindi ko nga alam eh kung bakit hanggang ngayon wala pa siyang pinakikilalang girlfriend sa akin o wala man lang nakuwentong natitipuhan. 

Well, base kasi sa school performance niya, Kuya was not interested in love life and I think his first love is studying. And that he is.  

Naalala ko tuloy si Min, may pagkapareho kasi sila ni Kuya. Maamo ang mukha ni Min, may matangos na ilong, manipis na labi at maputi. And the one really attracts him was his tantalizing eye.
