"Lunes na naman bukas." Rinig kong daing ni Shame sa tabi ko. "Monday's is so not giving, malalasap ko na naman ang school air." Dugtong pa niya sabay ayos ng hawi ng buhok

"Ang arte mo naman, Ate." Sagot ni Trust sa kanya. Nasa living area kasi kami at nag-aantay ng dinner na hinahanda ng maids.

"Ate, can I eat this ice cream?" Ipinakita ni Pain ang hawak niyang ice cream kay Genuine pero tumanggi ito

" You ate ice cream yesterday baby eh. How about tomorrow?" Shee gently said "But ate, kuya gave this to me and said I can eat it." protesta ni Pain

Tumingin ang lahat kay Kuya Chase na ngingisi ngisi at nagpipigil na ngayon ng tawa.

"What? I didn't do anything ah." At tumawa ito. Mahinang binatukan ni Shame si Kuya noong hindi na nakatingin si Pain. Umiling na lang ako, ang gulo nila.

"Pain put that ice cream back inside the fridge. It's almost dinner time, you can't eat that." I calmly said but I think they took it the other way because Pain got scared of me and immediately did what i said.

"Kapag talaga si Ate Sikken ang umimik kahit hindi nakakatakot 'yung sinasabi niya matatakot ka." Biro ni Trust. Kumunot na lang ako ng noo at umirap. Anong ibig sabihin niya at ano na naman ba ang nagawa ko?

Habang patuloy na ginagawa namin ang aming mga kanya kanyang personal na ginagawa, nagulat kaming lahat nang biglang tumakbo sa amin si Yaya Xi na aligagang aligaga

"Naku, Ma'am, Ser uuwi daw ho ngayon si Donya Herschel at Donyo Riv. Malalagot ho tayo dahil wala pa po si Heaven sa mansyon.

"Shit, si Heaven." Wala sa sariling usal ko. Ang lahat ay aligagang aligaga na maliban kay Trust.

"Pwede naman nating sabihin na may lakad siya ngayon ah? 'Wag nga kayong mag-panic." Si Trust at isinandal pa ang ulo sa unan ng sofa.

"Linggo ngayon, Trust. Ano sa tingin mo ang idadahilan natin ngayon alas otso na ng gabi at wala pa rin dito ang babaeng 'yon?" Sagot ko sa kanya habang tina-type ang numero ni Heaven s telepono ko.

"Sabihin natin na nasa mall siya ng ganitong oras. Hindi na magtataka si Mommy at Daddy no'n."

"Hindi niya kasama si Yaya Xi. 'Diba ang rule eh kasama natin sila lagi? Malalagot si yaya pag nagkataon dahil kinukunsinti natin si Heaven. Besides, all the drivers are here. It's already suspicious." I answered again while the phone is ringing

Sumagot ka hiben!

"I texted Ate na.." Si Genuine

"She's not answering it." Kuya Chase in a pissed mode

[*dug dug dug, Yes, Ate?] Sumagot si Heaven ng telepeno nang may malakas na tugtog at ingay sa paligid. Nailayo ko tuloy ng bahagya ang telepono dahil ang ingay nito.

"Nasaan ka? Umuwi ka na ngayon na dahil dadating sila Mommy." utos ko

[Haaa? Anoo?? May dadating na Mami?! Tumawag ka sa 'kin para sabihin na may darating na Mami?] Rinig ang paglayo niya sa maiingay na tugtog para marinig niya ako ng maayos. Nasa club siguro ito. Napasapo na lang ako ng noo.

"Anong Mami? Uuwi sila Mommy! Umuwi ka na ngayon na ng mabilis kapag naunahan ka nilang makarating dito ay pare-pareho kayong malalagot." Tumingin ako saglit kay Yaya Xi na ngayon ay kinakabahan na

[Fuck, oo nga. Thank you ate, uuwi na.] At agad niyang pinatay ang telepono.

Bakit naman kasi biglaan ang pag-uwi ng magulang namin? Hindi ba 1 month sila roon? Two weeks pa lang ah

Heaven's PoV

Shit shit uuwi sila mommy!

Natapilok pa ako dahil sa kalasingan. Well, kaya ko naman at matino pa ang pagiisip ko. Pero kasi nahihilo ako! huhu. Paano ako uuwi nito ngayon?!

Inis akong umupo sa sahig dahil nahihilo na talaga ako. Nagulat na lang ako nang may kumuha ng bag na itinapon ko. Isang pamilyar na mukha ang bumungad sa akin at tinulungan ako para makatayo.

Kilala ko 'to!

"Nuwein right? You're Emir Nuwein?" I asked a little bit groggy. I swear he's twirling right in this moment

"Yeah. You're Sikken's sister right? Are you okay?" I giggled because of his question and playfully tapped his chest, giggling.

"Ikaw ah! Haha! Naalala mo pa si Ate. I really think together, you'll be a nice couple. Isang masungit na parang robot at matinong tao." I don't even know where my words came from but clearly, because of the alcohol. This is because of the alcohol.

"And.... I'm not okay. I need to go home now.. ASAP! A.S.A.P. before my parents finds out that I'm sneaking. I can get my nanny fired! We'll all be dead meat. Do you have a car? Can you drive me home? Mabilis ka naman siguro magdrive 'no? Kasi kung hindi, hindi ka naman siguro mag~" I was shocked when he put a finger on my mouth to shut me off. Aba, I wasn't done with my sentence!

He chuckled "I get it now, you just need a ride home. Stop talking and let's go, get in the car." He opened the car's door for me as I entered. Wow he's a gentleman pala. Bonus points 'to sa 'kin 'pag nagkatuluyan sila ng Ate ko. I laughed at my thoughts and he gazed at me questioning what's happening. Umiling ako.

SIKKEN'S POV

In all honesty, wala talaga akong pakialam sa rule ng parents ko. I just don't wanna make Nanny Xo get fired and humiliated because of this. I know my parents so damn well. I just don't want another chaos tonight.

Me and my siblings including Nanny Xi, were gathered at the main door waiting for Heaven hoping that her car, or should I say, wherever car she's into, that car will arrive first before our parents car. My heart was pounding fast as our automatic gate opened and it revealed a Porsche Car. I already knew from there that Heaven came first and everyone felt relief.

But what shocked me is that Enuih went out of it to open the passenger seats door where Heaven is seating. Nag date ba sila? Akala ko ba iinom lang ang babaeng 'to? I thought this guy flirted with me days ago and now she's dating my sister?!

"Hi, my beautiful family!" She yelled and laughed as a peacock. I suddenly became irritated of her being so irresponsible.

"Could you please act normal?! You better be sober before they go home." Pananakot ko at agad namang inayos ni Heaven ang kanyang sarili. "Sorry, ate." She was quiet for a moment ang then hugged Nuwein in front of me and wave goodbye "Thank you, Win."

"Sip a coffee inside and make yourself sober, Hae. They'll be here in 15 minutes, they texted me." Si kuya Chase ay nagsalita na rin

"Ayan alis pa!" Rinig kong panenermon ni Trust noong papasok na sila.

Nagpaiwan lang ako saglit para kausapin si Nuwein. Kung may balak siyang mangligaw sa kapatid ko ay itigil niya na. Pareho lang silang mahihirapan. Nakaramdam tuloy ako ng inis sa sarili ko, hindi ko alam kung saan ako nanggagaling.

Nang makapasok na silang lahat ay kinompronta ko na ito.

"Hi, gorgeous. I wasn't expecting to meet you tonight actually." He then smirked

Really? After dating my sister he's into me again? What kind of any body anatomy do this guy have to act like a total flirt?

I just shook my head looking to the side a little then faced him and stared emotionless

"Look, I don't wanna be involve between the relationship of you two," I pointed at the direction where Heaven is heading at "but if you and Heaven are dating or whatsoever. You should stop it. It will harm you both. Our family is complicated." I warned him

Ngunit ang pinagtaka ko ay ang naguguluhang ekspresyon ni Enuih. Natawa ito sa akin at minasahe ang sintido ng bahagya

"Ang dami mo naman agad sinabi sa pamilya mo." he chuckled " At saka, dating? Sino? Kami ni Heaven?" He fucking laughed "I just saw her in the club drunk and helped her stood up then she asked me to bring her home babe, don't be jealous." He teased me with a smirk and crossed his arms while staring at me intently.

"Jealous? Why would the fuck I'd be jealous?!" He grinned wider with my response

"But you're acting one, Sikken. Gusto mo ba ako?" He questioned me smiling that his teeth and dimples were out "I mean okay lang naman. You know I like you. A lot."

He. . . What?

Is this some kind of jokes again?

This man is getting into my nerves, really. Damn it!

"You know what, this is pointless. You may go!" And then I stormed off. I heard him chuckling as he went back inside the car. He's really pissing me off! Nagkamali lang ako ng akala, nagseselos na raw agad ako?! Assuming! Nag-iimbento pa siya na gusto niya kooo!

Ugh, I'm so mad right now!

But what's making me more mad is that I'm smiling. Am I crazy?!

"No," I hid my smile. "I better not fall for his games."

This is bad. He is bad.
