Back And Forth

Chapter 3

"So, Jan, where are we going?" My sister Sienna asked Holmes.

"Oo nga, saan? Is there any instagramable places here?" Leiyana, or Lei for short, asked Holmes too.

Like duh, everything is instagrammable. Its all up to your editing skills! And okay, of course on how you focus on your subject too.

I rolled my eyes at their questions. Feeling close, my goodness!

Ang init na naman ng dugo ko. Nakakainis naman kasi. Dapat ako lang kasama ni Holmes, e. My sisters are both pain in the arse! Aish!

"My friends are waiting for us. Dadaanan muna natin sila and kami ang mag tu-tour sa inyo."

"I hope we can be friends, too." Lei cheerfully said. Oh please! I hate them!

Magkasalubong ang kilay ko. I am really not in the mood! Kasi naman! Kami lang dapat dalawa ni Holmes!

"This is your sister Marithe's idea, but I guess she's not interested. Mukha siyang nalugi." He chuckled at what he just said.

I immediately raised an eyebrow. Anong nalugi? Ngayon ko lang narinig 'yon.

"What's nalugi?" Lei and Sienna asked in unison. Great, pati sila hindi nila alam.

"Right, limited nga lang pala ang alam niyong Tagalog. I'm sorry for that. Nevermind nalugi. Lets just enjoy the trip." Natatawang aniya na mas nakapag-trigger ng curiosity ko.

Anong nalugi? Ano ang ibig sabihin niya doon? My gosh, this is killing me!

As curiousity kills the cat, "Hey, what's nalugi exactly?"

"Nothing, really. H'wag mo na intindihin 'yon." Natatawang aniya.

I can punch him right in the face even if he's handsome, I don't care. Just don't give me bull shits!

"Oh come on, is it some kind of tagalog term for pretty? Parang maganda and all that? Because I know, I'm pretty! You don't have to state the obvious." I confidently said.

But bullshit, I slouched on the car seat when he laughed so damn hard!

Damn, may mali ba sa sinabi ko? Ano ba kasi 'yang nalugi na 'yan?!

"Hey, nalugi is pretty right? You said mukha akong nalugi. Well my face is pretty! Like duh?"

"Stop that, Marithe. You wouldn't wanna know." He said with a wide grin on his face that made me pissed more than ever!

"Oh please Francheska, your thoughts might be the reason of your death! Enough with your pretty-pretty-craps!"

I gave Sienna a death glare, "Shut up, Sienna, I am not freaking talking to you! Mind your own biz you, nerd!"

I rolled my eyes at her damn, she's getting on my nerves! As if i'm asking for her lame opinion! Why did God blessed me with sisters like them?! Uhhh, they're annoying!

"So, Holmes. Hindi mo sasabihin ano 'yung nalugi?" I asked sheepishly.

"No, Marithe. Hayaan mo na 'yon. Just don't mind that." I can till see that naughty smile on his face, he's smiling like he won something big and it irritates me big time!
