Forge of the Heart (It Girl Series #1)

Chapter 1

I am born privileged, an only child with a supportive and loving parents. They support me in anything that I do and they accepted me for who I am and who I chose to become— from my dresses, make ups, caprices and even my hormone injections for my transition which is why i'm very grateful for them.

Well, I am born with a feminine facial features so it helps a lot thanks to my mom and also to my dad's foreign blood that made it easy for my transition. My mom taught me how to be prim and proper all the time and she's my fashion icon as well so like mother like daughter is kinda my daily mantra.

I was busy looking for bags at a certain boutique when I heard some voices behind me.

"Bro do it, get her number already" rinig kong sabi nung isang lalaki sa kasama nya na tinutulak nila palapit sakin.

Lumingon ako sa kanila and I gave them my sweetest smile.

"Give me your phone" confident kong sabi sa lalaki saka tinanggap ang phone nya ay tinype ang aking numero.

"T-thanks" nauutal pang sabi nya.

Di na ko sumagot at lumabas na sa boutique para dumiretso sa parking lot kung saan naka park ang sasakyan ko.

I actually think that we're from the same school tho, he kinda look familiar to me. I think he's part of the men's volleyball team if i'm not mistaken.

Nagdrive na lang ako at umuwi na.

"Asia where have you been?" Oh crap I forgot to tell dad that i'm going out.

Di naman ako papagalitan nito eh. Lumapit ako kay dad at kiniss ang cheeks nya.

"Nag shopping lang po sorry di na nakapagpaalam" paawa kong sabi.

"You're always like that, kelan ka ba matututo magpaalam pag aalis ka?" Sermon nya sakin

I sighed and look down, not wanted to make an eye contact to my grumpy dad.

"Wag mo na pagalitan ang anak natin hon" Lumapit samin si mommy na kabababa lang hagdanan at nilambing si daddy.

Tumingin ako kay daddy at nagpaawa.

"Next time dad i'll make sure na, please sorry na" I did my best paawa look at tumalab naman ito kay dad. I knew it haha

"Alright, Alright but next time grounded ka na pag di ka pa nagpalaam okay?" Banta ni daddy.

"Aye aye captain!" Niyakap ko silang dalawa af umakyat na sa taas.

I sighed and jumped to my bed. Tomorrow will be the start of classes. I wonder what will happen.

I get my phone and called one of my bestfriend— si Ches just like me transdyosa din

Me: Hey girl!!

Ches: Btch waddupp?

Me: Are you excited sa first day of class?

Feeling ko tinatamad pang pumasok tong isang to.

Ches: Girl why would I? Sinong matutuwa kung lilipat yung pinsan ko sa school natin. Babantayan na naman ako nun.

Rinig ko ang frustration sa boses nya

Me: Pinsan? Boy or girl? What year?

I'm kinda curious. Sa tagal naming mag bestfriend since elementary days ngayon lang sya nafrustate ng ganyan sa pinsan nya, ngayon pang 3rd year college na kami saka sya naging ganto.

Her: 4th year and lalaki sya sakit sa ulo. For sure makikielam na naman sakin yun.

Me: Don't stress yourself na wala naman magagawa yun sa gagawin mo. Mabuti pa mag beauty rest ka na kailangan fresh tayo bukas.

Her: Aight girl. Tata for now na bahala na bukas di ko nalang papansinin yun. Bye asia love you

Me: Bye Ches mwa

I checked the time and it's already 4pm. I walked downstairs para uminom ng tubig pero may bisita yata kami. Nakita ako ni mom at pinakilala sa bisita nya

"This is my daughter, Asia" pakilala sakin ni mommy sa bisita namin.

They're a couple in their early 40's and mukha parin silang bagets.

"Hi iha nice to meet you, I'm your tita Precy and this is my husband Arturo" Nakangiting sabi ni tita Precy. Ang ganda nya and I love her fashion sense.

"Hello po tita and tito nice to meet you too" Magalang kong sabi at nakipag beso na.

"Mom excuse me inom lang po ako" magalang na sabi ko kay mommy at pinayagan naman ako.

"Kay gandang bata naman ng anak mo mare" dinig ko pang sabi ni tita pagka alis ko. At tinuloy na nila ang kwentuhan nila.

I went to the kitchen to drink water nang maisipan kong pumunta sa garden to freshen up but instead, I saw a very handsome guy na may kausap sa phone. I looked at his aristocratic nose, his lips down to his perfectly chiseled jawline. He's probably God's favorite, he is perfection damn.

Di ko namalayan na nakaharap na pala ito sakin.

"Hey are you the maid?" nakangisi nitong sabi sakin.

Did I heard him right?! A what?! Sa ganda kong to? How dare he!

"Wh—" di pa ko nakakasagot ng dinugtungan nya pa sinabi nya.

"Can you please get me some water? Nauuhaw ako" nakangisi parin nyang sabi.

Inis na inis na ko sa lalaking to.

"Hey mister fyi lang ha I'm the owner of this freaking house kung saan ka nakatayo ngayon" hinead to foot ko sya at inismiran.

"Ay hindi ba ikaw yung maid dito?" Kunwaring nagkakamot niyang sabi at halatang nang aasar.

Fuck! So much for perfection! Ang pangit ng ugali nitong lalaking to. I'm trained to be prim and proper pero nawawala dahil sa lalaking to.

"Arg! Damn!" Before I burst out because of irritation ay umalis na ko na sa lugar na iyon at baka kung ano pa masabi ko sa damuhong yun.

Umakyat na ko sa kwarto ko na inis na inis. How dare he! Lumabas ako sa balcony para makalanghap ng sariwang hangin dahil inis na inis pa din ako sa lalaking yun.

"Pst!" I looked down and saw the motherfucker uttering something.

Inis ko syang binalingan at iniisip kung anong sinasabi nya ng mapagtanto kong "water" ang ibig nyang sabihin.

"Argg!" I mouthed fuck you and gave him a middle finger too at nginisihan lang nya ako at kinindatan saka
pumasok na sya sa loob.

How bad this day can be! My face heated so bad. Ramdam kong umuusok na ang ilong ko sa inis. Ngayon lang ako nainis ng ganto. Pumasok na ko sa kwarto ko at pagpahinga.

I freaking promise that we'll get even.
