Sullivan University
Basa ko sa nakaembroider na kulay itim at hugis diyamante na logo sa kaliwang parte ng suot ko habang nakatingin sa salamin ng dressing table sa kwarto.
Hindi ko akalaing ngayon ang araw na masusuot kong muli ang uniporme ng Sullivan.
It was an ivory peaked lapel tuxedo dress ending above my knee and made from flannel wool with golden brown outlines. A tailored gold belt surrounds the waist area to emphasize the body curve. Sa gitna ng belt ay nakatahi rin ang logo ng university.
I put on a white sleeveless blouse tucked in a black high waist leather and fit mini-skirt for my inner dress. Perhaps one of the most convenient rule of Sullivan is you have the freedom to decide what top should you wear inside the tuxedo. The black leather skirt is a must tho.
Ibinalik ko ang tingin sa dalawang bagay na nasa dibdib ng tuxedo. The black 3D diamond shaped logo with its silver details ay nasa kaliwa at sa kanan ay makikita ang gintong nameplate kung saan mga maliliit na diyamante ang nakaukit sa bawat letra ng pangalan ng estudyante.
Yes, gold and diamonds as in GENUINE GOLD AND DIAMONDS. Surely, this uniform was ultra-expensive yet there is no such thing when it comes to the heirs and heiresses of the big business world.
When you're in Sullivan, you're branded as a royalty. You could say that and everyone in the world could tell you're not exaggerating. Sa uniporme pa lang ay alam mo na kung bakit halos puro mga anak lamang ng pinakamalalaki at pinakamaimpluwensyang pamilya, sa bansa man o sa buong mundo, ang nakakapasok sa university na to.
That's how Jared's family established and developed their name and business.
"Hey, baby," I greeted the small man outside.
After doing my things ay lumabas ako ng kwarto, exactly when the doorbell gone off. I checked the intercom to see who it was and a pair of tantalizing chinito eyes met mine.
"A-ate Thally?" sambit ng batang kutis at mata ay kahalintulad ni Yuan.
I looked at him with full of fondness. He seemed having a hard time believing who opened the door for him.
"Yo, Brodie the Great!" pumaibabaw ang tinig ni Timothy na napadaan sa may pintuan.
"Kuya Timo! Hi!" Yuan's lil brother greeted back.
I stepped aside giving way for Brodie to enter before closing the door again.
Maaaring hinintay niyang makapasok ang bata para mag-apir kung kaya't hindi pa nakakaalis si Timothy sa pwesto niya nang mabalingan ko siya.
"Justin Timothy! Put your goddamn clothes on!"
Paano ba naman, kakatapos niya lang maligo and God knows we're running late! Tapos kung makagala siya sa loob ng condo na nakatopless at tuwalya lang ang suot ay parang ang dami niyang oras.
"Baby Thally!" he shouted back na nakakunot ang noo.
I was taken aback by the sudden volume of his voice. Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay nang makabawi.
Nawala naman agad ang pagkakunot ng noo nito at napalitan ng ngiting ngiti niyang mukha.
"Watch your language hehe," he uttered before storming off towards the room.
"5 minutes or you'll get your ass being dragged to school topless!" I warned him na tinawanan naman ng batang nasa gilid ko. Binalingan ko ito.
"Ate Thally, it's real! You're back!" Brodie excitedly stated and went for a hug.
"I thought nakalimutan mo na ako."
"No way!" he answered without missing a beat at kumawala sa pagkakayakap.
