Imperfect Hearts [On Going]

3rd IMPERFECTION (06-10-2020)

When I said pretty, I mean it.

Neneng has really gotten that refined looks of older version of my sister. This time, she wears a moss-colored, sleeveless dress revealing her smooth, slender arms and that, I didn't realized at first, sexy collar bone. With that view, cross-legged, nuckle on her chin, I can say she's an understatement of being a maid.

Nang mapansin kong isang minuto na rin kaming nakatayo sa labas ng aming kwarto, I frowned at how 'HINAYUPAK' they are to just barge in to our room without my prior authorization. Si Neneng, I gave her a questioning look, hindi porque pinag-isipan ko ng magagandang bagay ay mag reyna-reynahan na siya sa aking harapan. At itong skaterboy-slash-ladies' man, I threw him my coldest eyes, hindi porque gwapo ay makikipaglandian na sa loob ng kwartong binabayaran ko.

"Okay, okay. Calm down, ate Arylle." Si Chella na napansin ang pakikipagsukatan ko ng tingin sa dalawa na mukhang walang balak magpaliwanag.

Paano nagagawa ng lalaking ito ang umupo sa aming sofa ng hindi manlang nahihiya?

At itong Neneng na ito, bakit ba ang ganda niya para sa isang chimay?

Baka sustentado nitong si skaterboy? Ts.

"Ate Neneng, I thought ikaw lang ang pupunta. I didn't know you're with skaterboy." Naglakad na papasok si Chella sa loob at hinarap ang dalawa.

So she knows.

"Alam mong may bwisita tayo pero di mo man lang sinabi." Nanggigigil kong turan sa kapatid ko ngunit ngumiti lang ito habang tumatango.

Muli niyang tinignan ang dalawa at nagmukha siyang maliit na mayora dahil humalukipkip pa ito sa harapan nila.

"Why is skaterboy here?" Nang-iintrigang tanong nito sa dalawa.

"Nandito siya para samahan lang ako. Siya si Zedd, kaibigan ko. At paano mo nalaman na skaterboy nga siya, Chella?"

'Z-zeddy?'

I mentally gibed with the sudden thought.

I lost my interest so I just went in. Ibinagsak ko ang mga pinamili namin sa sahig, faced the door at pabagsak din itong isinarado. I went to the kitchen ng may mabibigat na hakbang, nagdadabog na binuksan at pabagsak na isinara ang refrigerator matapos kumuha ng tumbler na pabagsak ko ring ibinaba pagkatapos uminom ng tubig. I even punched the table and made a crack in it. Hindi ko maipaliwanag ang lebel ng frustration na nararamdaman ko ngayon. With that, I was drowned with my thoughts again.

"I heard something is cracked. Is she breaking a glass?" Si skaterboy.

The two girls just laughed at him.

Ts. Sige, tumawa kayo dahil huli ni'yo na 'yan.

ZEDD

"Do I really need to go too, Sierra?"

I asked the girl who just shambled in to my room without my permission. I thought she's working in the city and I had no idea that she's here.

"I thought you're at work, why are you here?" I asked.

"Nandito 'yong trabaho ko, Zedd, kaya ako nandito. Akalain mong hindi ko agad nalaman. Magaling, magaling." She said it as if she's talking to someone.

I'm surprised because of what she said.

She's here?

That's impossible. There's no way she knew this place.

"And that makes me required to go too?" I asked, pretending I'm annoyed when in fact I am really bolt out of the blue.

She stared at me so I pulled the comforter upward even more until it reached my neck. For goodness' sake I am only wearing a boxer. Sierra is still a girl and I am still a good boy. It's embarrassing.
