Loving An Esqueza (AMTMB FAN FIC)

Zeus [7]

7.

"Where are you going?" He asked me, I am off to school. I need to pass my project, absent ako ngayon diba? Eh, deadline din ng project namin ngayon. 2 points din halos ang mababawas sa total grade ko, Sa University kasi namin. They only say our percentages each subject, prohibited ang pagsasabi ng total scores.

Due to misunderstandings that happen. 2 years back, I guess? Napagbintangan na dinadaya ang total grades ng mga estudyante, running for Valedictorian pa naman yung estudyante na yun o kaya mga top students. Eh nung next quarter ng school year, biglang bumaba silang lahat.

The parents stood with their children, naniniwala sila na niluluto at dinadaya ang mga grado ng bawat isa. Nagkademandahan, sa huli ay nagkaroon ng misunderstanding ang panig ng mga estudyante. Sapagkat, akala nila ay bumagsak sila dahil nakakuha sila ng rango na 'Top 1-5' Wait, ang epic! Hahahahaha!

"University, I need to pass this." I said, kumunot naman ang noo niya. What's the problem of this boy again? I gave him a look asking him 'Why?'.

"In an hour or less, we have to get going. Zoey just came back. Instead of fetching her, let's head to the mansion." He said, nanlaki naman ang mga mata ko.

Zoey just came back?! Ghaad, I miss her so much. This is just so grea---Does she know? That, err. Me and Zeus are living together? I wish she wouldn't panic!

"Last day na nito eh." Nagulat ako ng hinablot niya iyon at biglang binato sa lapag, tila biglang nagalit ang buong sistema ko. Isa ito sa mga dahilan ng aking pimples at eye bags ko tapos itatapon tapon niya lang yun ng basta basta?

"Ano bang problema mo?!" I shouted, nakakabwiset! Napaka-immature talaga ng lalaking to, Napakasimpleng bagay pinangungunahan nanaman niya ng galit! Sino hindi maiinis don?

"Yang project mo!" Napaiwas ako ng tingin, sabay tawa. Nawala lahat ng inis ko ng marinig ko siyang mag-Tagalog, napaka-cute. Hindi siya nauutal, nabubulol lang ng unti pero hindi mo maikakaila na may accent parin siya.

Imbis na sigawan ulit siya, I smiled at kumapit ako sa braso niya na ikinagulat niya at ikinagulat ko rin. Why did I do that?! Napaiwas ako ng tingin, I heard him chuckle. Ibinalik niya ang kamay ko sakanyang braso.

Isang mahigpit na yakap ang aking natanggap, pagkapasok ko sa mansion ng mga Esqueza. Malaki ito, sobrang laki. Mas malaki pa sa bahay nila Tita Iris, nakarinig ako ng tili na nakapagpabalik saakin sa katinuan.

There I realized, it was Zoey who hugged me. Hindi ko naiwasang mapanganga sakanyang itsura ngayon, From bottom to top. A lot changed, ohmy! She became more mature, her appearance defines the word Gorgeous.

Napatakip ako ng bibig ng inangat ni Zeus ang aking baba, napa-pout tuloy ako ng wala sa oras. Zoey looks like a goddess from bottom to to top, eh ako? Mula ulo, mukhang paa.

"You changed!!" Sigaw ni Zoey, her accent. Parang female version talaga ni Zeus, ang sarap pakinggan. Hindi mo maipagkakaila na, kapag parehas silang lalaki o babae baka hindi ko na makilala sino silang dalawa. Thank goodness at magkaiba ang kasarian nila.

Zoey and I chatted a lot. She told me what happened in abroad, I also told mine. She was so happy when she found out that Zeus and I are living together, mulang mula pa sa kilig eh. She always told me na may boyfriend siya doon, pero uuwi din after a week. She will personally introduce him to the family, napagalaman ko na ayaw pala ni Sir Esqueza na magkaroon ito ng boyfriend.

Okay naman daw kay Zeus, nakilala daw kasi nila ito ng sabay. Kasama ang kanilang Tita Ashley, I forgot their love story pero as far as I know..It was a love on first sight.

So, those things really exist huh? I really don't believe in fairytales, for me...These are just false concepts about love or life. Happy ever after or Happy endings? For me, those only exists in the world of fiction.

But, I still do believe..maybe, half of the half. There will be a person who will, let me enter that world and He'll let me feel what fairy tales are. I need a perSOON, yeah. Soon.

"Are you having fun?" Zoey asked, I just nod. Medyo nahihilo na ako, I drank a litt--lot. Sa haba ng kwentuhan namin ni Zoey, hindi ko namamalayan ang pagabot saamin ng mga beers.

I saw Tita Iris, she waved at me. I waved back, she raised her thumb as if she's saying a 'Thumbs up'. I just smiled, She's with Sir Zach Esqueza. Handsome as ever, kaya maganda at pogi rin itong anak eh.

"Zoey, why don't you entertain your guests? This is a welcome party for you, better enjoy yourself with others also. Don't be stuck by my side, I can handle. Have fun!" Nagaalanganin pa sana siya ng itulak ko na siya palayo, tumango nalang siya saakin.

Napatingin ako sa harap ko ng may naki-upo, tinignan ko sino ito. I don't know him, maybe isa ito sa mga business partners ng mga Esqueza. Mukhang mayaman din eh, may itsura at may korte ang katawan. Unlike others with their three piece, naka suot lamang siya ng denim shirt at pants.

"Here." Sabay abot niya saakin ng beer, tinitignan ko lamang ito. Tatanggapin ko ba? He even shook it, tinanggap ko na ito. Naubos narin kasi eh. Last ko na to, promise. Nahihilo narin ako eh, baka pati si Zeus lasing.

I drank the beer, ughh. Ganto na ba ako kauhaw? I drank 6 bottles of beer including this, hindi naman ako straight uminom. Bakit feeling ko, uhaw na uhaw ako?

Napatingin ako sa kaharap ko ng tumawa siya, napatingin ako sa bote ko. Ubos na pala? Tumaas ata ang alcohol tolerance ko ah! Nakaka-adik, pero...wala pa akong 18! Next 2 months pa ako magde-debut.

Tumabi saakin yung lalaki at inakbayan ako, tatanggalin ko sana ito ng biglang bumagsak ang ulo ko sa kanyang balikat. At tila, nandilim ang paligid...All I want is to, sleep.

"Poor you.'
