章 6: Funny
It's already 9 in the morning but I'm still here lying on my bed. Tinatamad akong gumalaw pero kailangan ko nang bumangun at gutom na ako.
I sat down on my couch near the window and continued to read the book I was reading. But I can't understand what I'm reading at all. My brain is still thinking about him. I got up and went out of the veranda. As I stared up the sky, I think it's time to put things back to where it was before.
But after a moment, I felt like he is there again watching over me so I turned my head and i am right. He is drinking coffee with his usual poker face.
"What can I do para mabayaran na kita agad?" I suddenly said.
"Wae? Why? Give me any valid reason first." He just replied.
"I'm sorry but hindi ko pwedeng sabihin ang reason ko." Sagot ko agad sa kanya.
"Oh, I see... fine..hmm.. what could it be." He said as he seems like thinking. "Why don't we do this, sumama ka sa akin tonight sa ball party. You don't need to pretend or do anything, just be my partner and your debt will be solved. As easy as that... ano, deal?"
"Sure." I said without even thinking. That moment I am only thinking about how to get over that crazy debt.
"Wow.. that was quick.. fine then, I'll will pick you at 5." He replied and turned back. But he's about to close the door nang dumungaw ulit sya. "Ahh.. Don't worry about what you will wear, ako nang bahala. Got it?"
...
It is exactly 5:00 when he came. He appeared infront of my door with all black suit. And I felt like my jaw dropped as soon as I saw him. He is handsome as always but now, lalo pa siyang gumwapo. Sa tingin ko, nasanay na syang nakakakita nang mga babaeng natutulala sa kanya. It seems like nothing to him. At ako naman, I felt awkward being with him. Kasi naman, the guy beside me is wearing a suit and I am only on my jeans. We're now heading somewhere when we stopped on a certain building. Sumusunod lang ako sa likud nya and nakikita ko ang mga babaeng napapanganga sa kanya. Pumasok kami sa isang salon.
"Anyeong Noona, Ikaw na ang bahala sa kanya." He said at umalis na agad siya.
Afterwards, lumabas na kami nang nagmake up sakin. Pagbukas ng pinto, the vampire's eyes met mine. Then my heart began to beat loud again kaya agad kung iniwas ang mga mata ko sa kanya. I felt so awkward so I just bit my lips habang nakatayo lang sa harap nya. I don't want to look at him dahil ayokong mahalata niyang I am so nervous at dahil pakiramdam ko ay parang nakatingin parin siya sa akin. Sumulyap ako sa kanya ng nagtama na naman ang mata namin. Pakiramdam ko ay nag-init ang mukha ko. Bakit siya nakatitig sakin? At huh? He suddenly averted his gaze? Usually i'm the one who always avert my eyes first everytime na magtama ang aming mga mata. He is acting a little weird? Then the makeup artist suddenly talked.
"I was surprised when she told me she's not a half Korean. Kasi naman she looks like Korean more than looking like a Filipina. And now, there's no doubt na papagkamalan syang full blooded Korean. She's gorgeous isn't she?" She is talking to the vampire. But the vampire just gave her a dress na hawak niya and said; "Ito nga pala ang isusuot nya. I'll wait outside."
Pagkatapus ay tahimik lng siyang tumalikod ulit. Anong problema niya?
....
Its already 8 and we're heading to the party now. The dress he chose is so perfect I think. It is simple yet elegant and I think i like his taste. But why is he so serious? He never talk to me since we went out of that salon.
We stopped in front of a fancy hotel.
We entered and while we we're on the elevator, nagsalita siya.
"Are you nervous?"
"Huh? Of..of course not." Agad kung sagot sa kanya.
"geojitmal.(liar)" Tipid nyang sabi.
"I'm not lying..." hindi ko pa natatapus ang protesta ko when he grabbed my hand at inilagay niya ito sa braso niya. Huh? Napatingin nalang ako sa kanya sabay ang malakas na pagkabog ng heartbeat ko.
"I know, I told you not to do anything pero hindi naman siguro big deal sayo to right?" sabi niya and the elevator opened.
"Yeah, i'm fine." Sagot ko. Pero ang totoo ikaw ang dahilan kung bakit i'm so nervous right now, not the party you idiot vampire.
.....
I now see Koreans. And I think most of them are students. But there are also some kids and older ones.
Napakapit ako nang mahigpit sa braso niya nang marealize ko na lahat yata ng mata ay nakatingin sa amin.
"What's wrong, my problema ba?" he softly said habang patuloy parin kaming naglalakad.
"Huh? No.. I just felt a bit awkward. They're all looking at us." I softly replied back to him as I tried to lower down my head.
"Yah! Raise your head up babo.. I know you're a silent kind pero hindi ko akalaing shy type ka rin." Nang-aasar na sabi niya.
"ofcouse not.. this is not shyness, I just don't like being a center of attention and I don't like events like this." Protesta ko sa kanya when suddenly four boys came.
"Eyy.. bro.. how are you.." they hugged each other and I already knew they're buddies. Then they started talking in their own language while I am watching them. But after a moment, they all looked at me.
Then they began to talk to me in Korean as they seems like being shy?
"She's not a Korean." Agad namang sabi ng bampira.
"MWO???" sabay sabay namang sigaw ng apat na lalake na ikinagulat ko. Umalingawngaw ang sigaw nila kaya tumingin tuloy ang lahat sa kinaroroonan namin.
"Aish jinja!! What the heck are you doing." Sabi ni Vampire habang binabatukan ang apat na boys. Then, nag usap na naman sila sa kanilang sariling language. Then, tumingin ulit sila sa akin.
"Yah! Can't you even introduce her to us?" sabi ng isa sa kanila.
"Ahh! Guys, this is...." The vampire stopped and looked at me. And that moment our eyes met, I think both of us realized something.
Oo nga pala, we don't even know each others name all these time yet. Haha, gusto kung tumawa. It's crazy but it's the truth. Bakit nga ba hangang ngayun ay hindi pa namin alam ang pangalan ng bawat isa?
"Jade... I'm Jade Heraz." Agad kung sabi.
"Hi Jade. I'm Hyunwoo, and this is Chandoo, Dongwoo and Shiyeol." Hyunwoo said and all of them bowed they're head a little as sign of respect. I'm not ignorant about Korean culture kaya I did the same thing which I think is the right thing to do.
This is actually an anniversary party pero parang kakaiba. Meron din silang mga presentations and these Koreans are really talented. Even a little kid is very good in playing violin. Meron ding nagpresent ng mga kpop dances and traditional Korean dances and it is interesting. First time kong makapanood ng live Korean dance kaya napahanga ako. It is swift and seems so hard. Habang nanonood ako, I did not notice that the vampire is no longer there in my side. Hinahanap ko sya pero di ko sya makita until I went to the comfort room. I am washing my hand when a group of Korean girls came. Lalabas na sana ako ng humarang sila sa harap ko and then, they began to talk in Korean. As I observe them, I know they're talking about me. Then, suddenly one of them pushed me. What is this, are they just doing the same thing that I've only seen in dramas? Seriously? I can't believe this. Kahit minsan hindi pumasok sa isip ko mangyayari sa akin ang ganito. Now I can't help but smile.
"Mwoya?? Yah!! You shit girl. Why are you acting like one of us? Yahh, who do you think you are to be with Jin oppa? Huh?? Huh??" one of them said as she put her finger on my forehead. So, this is all about that vampire. And Jin pala ang pangalan niya. Nalaman ko ang pangalan niya in a worst possible way ever. And that girl just called me a shit? So, this means that all those crazy bullying that I've seen in dramas are really happening? Grabe, this is really so funny. But, isn't this just too much? I am being bullied like this just because I came here with him? No matter what it is, this doesn't makes sense at all.
"I think we need to give her a lesson." Sabad naman ng isa pang may katabaan. Then suddenly, that girl in front just... slapped me!? What the heck is this? Whoa, I can't ask for more. There's no way I can just let this go. No way!
