Someone’s POV

“Naalala pa kaya ako ng babaeng yun? Hmmmm…?” yes, I’m talking to myself. Who cares? Hahaha just kidding.

Anyways, hi readers! I know you’re curious about me but this is not the right time to reveal myself. But actually, I still don’t know why I’m here. I think, the leading lady forgets about me already and I feel that I’m just useless in this story.

Krriiinnnnnngggg… (Telephone rings )

Haaayssst… too annoying for my momentums. Tsk!

Krrriiiiiinnnngggg… (2nd ring)

Okay, wait a minute readers. I’ll just answer the call first before I could continue my momentums. Stay tuned readers!

“Yes? What can I do for you?” I quickly ask the caller

“BABY!!! I MISS YOU SO MUCH. HOW’S MY BABY?” owhs, my eardrums! Can she just stop shouting? Tsk! I didn’t answer and continue to listen.

“I just got home from New York and I’m planning to meet you coz I really miss my baby so much. And next week I have to go somewhere for work. I’m too fucking busy tho.” Yeah right, she’s really annoying piece of shit. I wish I could disappear this time so I can’t see her.

“Tsk! Here we are again.” With an irritated voice.

“Whatever! Anyways, I already reserved a restaurant for the two of us and I’ll just send the address so we can meet. Wooossssh… can’t wait to see my future husband.” She’s been acting like a spoiled brat whenever she wants to see me and I hate it so much coz I can’t say no.

“Okay fine.” Tinatamad akong magsalita pag siya kausap ko coz I easily got irritated of her annoyance.

“Yeah! I know you also miss me that’s why you can’t resist. Okay bye, see you later baby, I love you.” Kung hindi lang talaga nang dahil sa deal nayun, naku matagal ko ng natapon tong babaeng to sa London bridge.

So I just didn’t answer her and immediately end the call. By the way, I know you’ve been thinking lately about my role in this story. No worries coz I’m going to give you some details about me so you can imagine my presence. LOL

Anyways, I’m half Canadian and half Chinese but I know how to speak in tagalong because of someone. We have businesses around the world. We also have properties in the Philippines and that’s the only place where I’ve been visiting since then. Honestly, I really love that country.

Krrrrriiinnngggg… (Telephone ring)

Oh! CRAP! Ang kulit talaga ng babaeng to, hindi makapaghintay. Tsk! Tumatawag ata ulit.

“YES? WHAT?” my voice is raising now.

“Is that how you say hello to a caller?” Oooops, I’m in trouble.

“Oh Shit, I thought you’re her again mom. I’m sorry. I just don’t feel that bitch” See? I am really irritated tho. Pati mommy ko nasigawan ko tuloy. And alam niya na din kung sino ang nakakapag ganito ng mood ko.

“Baby boy, that’s too much. You’ve been always like that whenever she calls. Show some interest with her, she’s okay with me.” Mom always insist that I should date someone but I don’t feel it.

“MOM! I’m still young and you know I have been waiting for someone to come back.” Medyo nalungkot tuloy yung boses ko kasi naalala ko na naman ulit ang dream girl ko.

“Wake up baby! You’re too hopeless. It’s already years ago but you’re still searching for nothing.” Yes, I know but I can’t easily forget her.

“Mom, you know I won’t stop searching and I don’t have plans to stop either.” Nag explain naman ako.

“Okay fine! I gave up. It’s your choice tho but you still need to date other girls. Don’t forget about our deal.” I really love my mom, she’s the coolest mom ever. Sobrang spoiled ako nito.

“Yes mom, I won’t forget that deal.” Walang gana ko namang sagot.

“So you need to meet that lover girl of yours and sleep with her if it’s needed. Hahaha” ang liberated talaga ng utak ng mama ko but I’m used to it and I understand coz it’s part of the culture here in Canada.

“mom…(pout) you’re being naughty again. Anyways, I’m going to meet her but in one condition.” I just hear her laughing.

“What is it?” she’s still laugh while asking me that. Tsk! Btw, I have a great idea.(Ting!) BWAHAHAHAHA

“I want to visit Philippines again.”sabay nakakaawang boses pa talaga huh.

“But baby boy, your mom and dad are too busy and we can’t let you go there alone.”

“Mom, I’m already 16 year old and I know how to handle things now. Please, I’m asking you a favor.” Paawa effect ko naman.

“Wait a minute, I’ll just check my schedule”  kina usap niya ata ang secretary niya, di ko din kasi marinig ang pinag uusapan nila eh.

“Baby, our schedules are really full and we can’t postpone our meetings.” With a sad tone.

“But mom,trust me! I can travel alone.” I still insisted and alam kong hindi ako mahihindian ni mommy.

“I’m just worried and can’t let you go alone.”

“Mom, I’m old enough and please let me try new things that I haven’t done yet? It’s part of growing up mom.” Ang tigas ng ulo ko no? hahaha gusto lang talaga maghanap ulit.

“Wait, I’ll think about it again.” Narinig ko nalang ang sobrang lalim na buntong-hininga niya.

“Please mom, I promise to be careful. Anyways, it’s already vacation time mom.”  Kinulit ko ulit si mom.

“Okay fine! I will let you visit Philippines but I’m going to hire bodyguards there so I can assure your safety.” Oh crap! Is this real? Shit madafuckern! Parang tumaas ata BP ko ng dahil sa kasiyahan.

“Really mom? YES! THANK YOU SO MUCH MOM! YOU’RE THE BEST MOM EVER.” Napasigaw na nga ako sa sobrang saya.

“Oh baby, good thing. I also have event to attend in the Philippines and I want to attend it with you.”

“Yes mom, no problem.” Finally, makakapag travel na akong mag-isa and nagbabakasakali din akong mahanap siya.

“Okay baby, I’ll gonna book your flight now. Prepare your things for your vacation and I will just inform your Tita about it so she can pick you in the airport. But one more thing, you still need to meet that girl today and it’s part of our deal.” Hays akala ko pa naman nakalimutan niya na yun.

“Yes mom, I have no choice tho. Xei-Xei! I love you.” Sabay baba ko naman sa telephone.

Goodbye for now guys, see you soon in the Philippines. Siguro naman, ipapakilala na ako ni Miss Author sa next chapter. Comment down below if you want to know me guys.

SEE YOU PHILIPPINES!

Xhienzy’s POV

🎶🎶(Insert music)🎶🎶
When I look you by Miley Cyrus

Everydoby needs inspiration,
Everybody needs a song,
Beautiful melody,
When the nights so long

Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy (Yeah)

[Chorus]
When my world is falling apart,
When there’s no light to break up the dark,
That’s when I (I) look at you
When the waves are flooding the shore and
I can’t find my way home anymore,

That’s when I (I) look at you
When I look at you.

Toook… took… took...

Ay panira ng moment huh, nag coconcert ako eh. Yes, ganiyan talaga ang daily routine ko. Hindi talaga mawawala ang music ko sa room kasi kahit may gagawin man ako or wala, hilig ko na talaga pakinggan ang mga songs na ito.

“Yes please, come in.” at pumunta sa speaker ko para e off ang music

“Anak, andito na sa baba ang mga designers and make up artist na ipinadala ng mommy mo.” Bigla namang iniluwa ng pintuan si Nana, hahaha chosss.

“Okay Nana, thanks. Susunod ako.” Sagot ko nalang sa kaniya and nagbihis tapos bumaba na.

OH MY GASH! Is this the famous glam team in Canada? How come? Sila ba ang mag aayos sa akin? Sheeeeeetttt nakakahiya but at the same time sobrang excited ko.

“Good Morning madame!” bati naman ng isang kasama nila para mapangiti agad ako but biglang lumapit sa akin ang isang kasama nila. Umikot ikot siya habang tinitingnan ang buong katawan ko, she’s weird tho but she’s pretty.

“OKAY! PERFECT!” bigla nalang siyang pumalakpak kaya naman nagulat ako at napatawa, may lumapit na isang assistant niya habang may dala dalang limang cocktails.

SHEEEEET para akong fairy nito. Sobrang ganda ng mga cocktails, may black with glitters off shoulder, may Pure black turtle neck, may black and white tube, may black silver long sleeves, may silver white cocktail with silver flowers. I like it all, feeling ko para akong fairy pag sinuot ko to. Sobrang ganda talaga.

“Madame, you can choose whatever you want. It’s all made for you madame. Take your time.” Tapos ayun nga mas lumapit ako sa kinaroroonan ng mga cocktails na isinuot sa isang manikin para mas makita mo ang kabuoang beauty nito.

Ang gaganda talaga, gusto ko tuloy suotin lahat. And feeling ko fit to lahat sa akin kahit hindi ako nasukatan, ang galing talaga ng glam team na ito.

“Is this made from Canada?” tanong ko naman, bakit kaya hindi ang glam team ni ate ang pinapunta dito? Ay sheet oo nga pala, ngayon nga pala yung Xhien’s Emporium Valentine Season. And balita ko may fashion show ngayon ang Xhien’s Clothing appareal  so malabong ang glam team ni ate ang pupunta ditto.

“Yes madame, the idea of that designs are all from the designs that your mother sent to us.” Kaya pala lahat gusto ko kasi ito yung mga na sketch ko eh, mas pinaganda lang talaga pero parang may kulang atang isang design ko. Kaya parang kumunot yung mukha ko and napansin naman nila yun.

“Oh crap! We forgot the other one.” Kaya pumalakpak naman siya ulit at nagmadaling umalis yung assistant niya at pumunta sa labas ng bahay.

“What is it?” na curious naman ako kaya napatanong agad ako.

“It’s the best design that I haven’t seen before madame.” She’s just smiling, ang weird niya talaga. Siya ata yung head ng glam team na ito.

“Btw madame, what looks do you want to achieve for the ball.?” Napatingin nalang ako sa isang magazine para makapili ng looks na ibabagay sa mukha ko and while scanning, napunta ako sa men section ng magazine. Nakuha ng attention ko ang mukha ng isang model dito and he really looks familiar with me kaya napatigil ako sa page nay un.

“Oh my gash! Yrx is so hot.” Kaya ayun napatingin ako sa baklang kasama ng glam team na ito na naka pwesto sa likod ng inuupoan ko, napatawa nga ako kasi para bang may lumalabas na heart shapes sa mata niya ng dahil sa nakita niya. Hahhaha

“He’s the reason why I accepted the offer of your mom. Honestly, I’m have busy schedules but I postponed it so I can go here in the Philippines.” Napatawa nalang kaming lahat kasi parang kinikilig talaga siya sa pagkwekwento niya.

“He’s one of the famous model in Canada madame, and take note. That was the first photo shoot he had but he immediately have a title as “Sexiest Model” in Canada.” Sobrang updated ata ng baklang to.

“He really looks familiar.” Nasabi ko naman ng mahina yun kaya napatingin ang bakla sa akin.

“Of course madame, coz he is really popular. I think you saw him in magazines and he really don’t like gatherings like fan meet ups, concerts and other crowded place. I only saw him in a gathering when they award his title.” Kaya napa node nalang ako. Pansin ko lang, ang daldal ng baklang to.

Honestly, wala naman talaga akong paki sa lalaking to kaso nakuha niya lang talaga ang attention ko kasi nga feeling ko nagkita na kami nito. Pero baka magkamukha lang siguro kaya ipinapatuloy ko nalang ang aking paghahanap ng looks.

“I want this look but I want to achieve a simple but pretty looks. Can you imagine that?” may nagustohan naman ako but mas gusto ko paring simple lang and I think gets naman nila kung ano yung gusto ko.

“YES of course madame, that’s perfect for your beauty.” Kaya napangiti nalang ako,

“Mag merienda muna kayo anak oh.” Dinalhan naman kami ng snacks ni Nana. It’s a Velvet cake and pure orange juice.

“Oh, thanks Nana.” Tinulongan ko nalang siyang ilapag ito sa center table ng sala naming.

“Please have snacks first, I’ll just going to fix myself so we can start. And just call Nana if you need something. I’ll be right back.” Kaya ayun tumayo na ako at agad umakyay na sa taas para maligo, 3pm kasi mag start ang event and may photo shoot pa daw ako sabi ni mom kaya nga mas pina aga niyang papuntahin ang glam team dito.

Time Check! It’s already 10 o’clock in the morning and I need to hurry up. As I about to enter my room bigla akong tinawag ni Nana.

“Anak, may nagpapabigay sayo. Delivery lang din yan kaya di ko alam kung sino ang nagbigay.” Kaya nagulat ako sa dalang bouquet of red tulips and Human size of a hello kitty stufftoy. Sobrang namamangha ako kasi ang ganda. Tinulongan ko nalang si Nana na ipasok yun sa loob ng room ko.

“Nana, ikaw na ang bahala sa kanila sa baba huh. Maliligo lang po muna ako. Thanks again.” Sabay close ko sa door at lumapit ako sa kinaroroonan ng tulips at may nakita akong isang maliit na card na nakaipit.

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY XHIEN <3
I’m sorry for all the misunderstandings.
See you later miloves. Mwaaaahhhh
-Rhainiel-

Ang sweet talaga nitong si Rhainiel, maypa flower and gift pa talaga. Alam na alam talaga kung ano yung gusto ko.

After a few minutes…

“I’M DONE!” bigla ko namang sigaw pagkatapos ko mag ayos and naka bathrobe lang pala ako kasi nga daw aayosan na ako pagkatapos naming mag lunch.

Aalis na sana ako sa kwarto ko but may tumatawag bigla…

Riiiinnnnnggg….

Sino kaya to? Kaya pagtingin ko sa phone ko, nakita ko ang pangalan ng kanina ko pa hinihintay tumawag. Hahahaha choossss

“Freeeennnnyy!”ouch huh, ang sakit sa tenga. Parang timang talaga tong babaeng to.

“Gusto mo ba akong mabingi? Hinaan mo nga yang boses mo.” Kaya ayung nagtawanan kaming dalawa.

“Are you ready? Ihahatid ka ba ng driver mo or may susundo sayo?” kaya napa isip din ako, magpapahatid nalang siguro ako kay kuya driver mamaya.

“Maglalakad lang ata ako fren. Hahaha” napatawa naman siya sa biro ko, kaloka tong babaeng to andaming reserved energy nito.

“Tumawag kasi yung suitor mo sa akin kaninang umaga. Hindi ka daw kasi sumasagot, nagtatanong lang naman kung sinong susundo sayo.” Wow, messenger na din siya? Hahaha

“wow! Ang cool mo talaga frenny, pati pagiging human messenger pinasok mo na din pala? HAHAHA.” Hahaha natatawa talaga ako, ang kulit kasi magsalita.

“Gaga! Hahaha sige na bye. Magpapaganda na muna ako, ikaw din wag kang gate crasher.” Hindi ko na sinagot kasi pinatay niya na nga ang linya.

Owhss… gusto ba ako sundoin ni damulag? Naku! Tatawagn ko ba or hindi? Ay sige na nga tatawagan na.

Riiiinnnnggggg… but before ako makatawag biglang tumunog ulit ang phone ko kaya agad ko namang sinagot.

“Lutang! Susundoin kita huh. I’ll be there at 2pm.” Nabigla naman ako, para namang papa ko tong lalaking to hindi man lang ako tinanong kung papayag ba ako.

“So ngayon bukod sa alien ka, papa narin ba kita? Hahaha”biro naman sa kaniya kaya napatawa narin siya.

“Luh! Nagmamagandang loob na nga eh, ang lutang mo talaga.” Ano kaya nakain nito at susundoin ako? Pero sheeems kinikilig ako huh, ayyyyiiieee

“Bakit ako susundoin mo? Sino pala maghahatid kay labidabs mo?”wooosssh what a great pretender xhienzy, sige galingan mo pa. Hahahaha

“Ah hindi ko siya masusundo kasi papa niya daw ang maghahatid sa kaniya.” What a great timing bwahahaahah choossss

“ay okay, sige na balik ka na muna sa outer space. Magpapaganda na muna ako.” Pag iba ko naman ng topic kasi nga nagmamadali na ako, anong oras na kaya.

“Hindi na naman kailangan, you’re pretty already.” OHMYGASH! Totoo ba to? Pulang pula na ata ang pisnge ko sa kilig. Sheeeet wala akong masabi, natameme ako frennn.

“Alien ka, gi bye!” hindi na ako naghintay ng sagot niya binabaan na siya ng phone.

At the dining table …

“Oh anak, may lagnat ka ba? Bakit ang pula ng pisngi mo?”kaya chineck ni nana ang temperature ko gamit ang kamay niya.

“No nana I’m okay. Hehehehe.”medyo nahihiya ko pang sabi

“I think she’s inlove.”bigla namang sumingit ang bakla, sabay kasi kaming nag lunch ng glam team.

“Ahhh… I’m not, hehehe.”kaya ayun hindi na ako nagsalita at kumain nalang.

“I see. Anyways, hurry up and we’re going to start turning you into a fairy.” Kaya ayun nga nagmadali na kaming lahat kasi nga 12pm na tapos may photo shoot pa ako, feeling ko talaga ma lalate ako nito buti nalang fixed na ang lahat sa venue and tinext ko na din si Norxhy na siya na bahala sa venue kung siya man ang maunang makarating doon.

Third Person’s POV

Ngayong araw gaganapin ang Juniors and Seniors Promenade ng mga mag-aaral sa Alegria State University and parang nagsilbi na din itong farewell party para sa mga seniors kaya naman sobrang busy ng lahat.

Nakakamangha talaga ang venue kasi black, silver and white ang theme nito, sobrang elegante tignan. Lahat ng tao sa venue ay sobrang busy. Ang mga waitress na nakasuot ng magagarang dress din, kumbaga para siyang mga utosan sa isang fairy land.

Sobrang dami din ng securities sa labas at loob kasi nga mga anak mayaman lahat ang dadalo and sobrang laki din ng Golden Que’s Gate Convention.

Pumaparada na din ang iba’t ibang magagarang sasakyan ng mga studyante sa parking lot ng convention. Masasabi mo nga talagang galing sa mga mayayaman na pamilya ang mga studyante ng ASU.

Pero isang black and gray sports car ang nakakuha ng atensyon ng karamihan. Ito ata yung sports car na kakalabas lang ng kompanya. May biglang lumabas na napakagwapong lalaki na para bang artista kaya nag titilian ang mga babaeng nakakita sa kaniya pero hindi niya ito pinapansin at pumasok nalang sa loob.

Ang gwapo niya tignan sa kaniyang gray outfit. Simple lang siya, may nakabitin na parang maliliit na kadena, parang yung style ng isang American star. Ang hot niyang tignan but nagtaka din ang ibang studyante dahil ang gwapong lalaking iyon ay hindi nag-aaral sa ASU.

To be continued...
