"hoy! San ka pupunta?" sita ko sa kanya nung talagang nagtuloy tuloy lang siya
"uhh? My room?" sabi niya lang, huh? My room? Teka samin toh? Eh wala naman akong natatandaan may ganto kaming bahay ah?!!
"teka naman! Kaninong bahay ba to?" tanong ko na, di ko na natiis eh, dirediretso kase sya na para bang alam na alam ang kabuuan nung bahay at ang nakakapagtaka pa nagbabow lahat nung mga nakakasalubong namin, weird
"its ours obviously though?" sabi niya and my jaw dropped, literally! seriously?!
"since when?" wala sa sariling tanong ko at namamangha pa din, nagpapalingon lingon ako hbang sinusundan ko si kuya
"you were not listening weren't you" he scolded and I looked away, so ito pala yung sinasabi niya dati, di ako nakinig, nakakatamad eh, ang dami dami dami dami damiiiii niyang sinasabi na nakakaboring kayaaaa sinong gaganahang makinig! Malay ko naman na may bahay pala kami somewhere near Siena diba?
"malay ko namang bahay pala yung pinagdadadada mo dun noh! ang dami dami dami mo kayang sinasabi that time na namiss ko yung important point—saka busy kaya ako nun malay ko ba" mahabang sagot at reklamo ko sa kanya at syempre hindi ko namiss makita yung parang nalugi niyang itsura
"attitude young lady!" sita niya, anjan nanaman ulit yung playful aura niya
"ikaw lang naman kuya eh, saka tayong dalawa lang kaya ayos lang yan" sabi ko then I patted his shoulder
"you really don't change do you huh? Kahit sa Siena pa kita nilipat, with such hope, wala, mas lumala ka nga lang" he said, di ko naman pinansin, like duh?
"yeah, yeah, so where's my room? I'm tired—I wanna take a bath, and I'm hungry—where's the food?" sunod sunod na tanong ko sa kanya and he just chuckled
"we're going there, kakatukin na lang kita when the food's ready" he said at tulad nga ng sinabi niya, hinatid niya ko sa supposed room ko and this was way, way, waaaaaaaaaay bigger than the one I had in our home, well mine was big but this was bigger, I didn't know na mayaman pala ang family namin (´・_・`)
may ivory painted door na may hint of rose gold na bumungad sakin, may metal designs din ito na victorian and venetian style mix ang design ng pinto pero napakafamiliar ng markings, pagbukas ng pinto bumungad sakin ang what looks like a recieving area, para mini sala, na may victorian style double sofa na magkaharap, may isang malaking oil painting na nakaframe din dito, may ibang furnitures din sa area na mukhang mamahalin din
after nun ay yung main bedroom na mismo, at tumambad sakin ang isang victorian style ulit na king sized bed at gold painted frame, may duvet din sa may paanan ng bed at may side table sa magkabilang side, mounted lamps sa taas ng side tables
It was a mixture of pink, black and violet, floral and butterfly themed, the room was spacious enough, yung King sized bed, pink and black and theme, may curtains na lilac ang color, and then there are flowers, artificial flowers na nagsisilbing clip nung curtains, then on the floor was a fur-like carpet, sa opposite side is an entertainment system, complete with stereo system and some books on the side
sa right side makikita mo ang naglalakihang window pannels at glass door papunta sa balcony, victorian style ulit ang design, hindi pa man ako nakakalapit tanaw ko na ang magandang view—yung garden siguro o kaya yung mga punong dinaanan namin kanina, sa kabilang side naman may nakita akong pinto, nung binuksan ko at pinasok bumungad sakin ang isang walk in closet
pagpasok mo makikita mo ang powder room, para itong maliit na hallway, may mga she,ves at cabinet, white painted walls at may mga window tapos sa right side naman yung walk in closet, sa left side makikita mo naman ang entrance papunta sa bathroom, may glass sliding door ito at nanlula ako sa laki ng area ng bathroom parang kasing laki na ata ng kwarto ko to sa bahay namin ah?
at nagulat ako nung kinalkal ko ang mga drawers at shelves doon, may mga damit, at hindi lang basta damit, branded clothes, from shirts, tops, pants, shirts, skirts and dresses, may mga formal wears pa nga akong nakita—name it and its there pati shoes at bags—so ibig bang sabihin nito matagal na to? hindi lang talaga ako aware?
yung bathroom naman white at gold ang theme, at marble design ang sa sink at tiles, been shaped ang tub na kasya ata ang dalawang tao sa laki, sa tabi nito ay yung shower na again kasya din ata dalawang tao sa laki, rain shower type ito at may maliit na removable shower head din na nakaattach sa may switch ng shower, may glass doors at divider din ito, my malaking salamin naman sa may sink at may mapansin naman akong stereo susyal naman
so I did what I came here for, I took a hot bath, played a music, and before I knew it, I fell asleep
I woke up after what felt like an hour, I just took out a dress and matching shoes and went out of the room para ikutin yung bahay which was really huge, glass house siya, and the view was great kahit gabi na, I'll make sure to check bukas ng umaga what's outside then
Nung napagod ako I decided to look for the kitchen and lucky for me, I did, and the table was set and saw my brother sitting there, his back on me, mukhang may kausap, di ako naalala, oh well
I just sat and waited for my brother, nung umupo na siya he said, we'll be having a visitor tomorrow kaya be on my best behaviour daw, e sa kanya lang naman bagsak ugali ko kase sa kanya lang naman ako ganon mehehehe
I took me forever before I found my room, and when I did, I went for the balcony to check, well I guess what we see at night would be different from what we may in the morning, but I liked what I saw.
Tulad nga ng sinabi ko, mas maganda nga ang makikita mo kapag may araw, and true to it all, the view was spectacular, I saw a garden—a huge garden sa isang part which I so wanted to go to, and some sort of maze-like path pero garden siya, maraming marble figures, statues—victorian style, then there's a fountain, kung lalakarin ko to it would take forever but ohh well, sulitin na nga lang
naenjoy ko tambayan yung flower garden, ang tataba at ng gaganda, madaming iba't ibang varieties ng iba ibang klaseng bulaklak ang makikita mo sa garden

Nung naisipan kong bumalik my brother was in this room na may grand piano, his back on mine again and he seemed to be talking to someone
"how is she?" asked the man
"she's doing fine" he answered
And then there was silence, and I took that moment to turn my back and storm back to my room, and I was surprised to the things I saw in there, lots of boxes, and then there's a golden box that caught my attention
I went to the dinning area and I was surprised with the man I saw there—it was the man my brother was talking to earlier—a man in his 40s with almost the same height and built as my brother, caucasian looking, parang kamukha niya din nga si kuya?—weird
"nandito ka na pala princess, I would like you to meet someone important" sabi ni kuya, hinintay ko na ipakilala niya but then he was silent kaya hinayaan ko na lang din
"you must be Genevere" the man warmly ask—with a warm smile and I dunno why pero ang gaan gaan ng loob ko sa kanya, napansin ko din na tulad namin ni kuya Blue din ang kulay ng mata nito pero parang may hint of green and brown din sa iris nito—heterochromia?
"uhh, yes, uhm..y-you are?" nahihiya ko pang tanong dito
"I am Zeiden" sabi niya lang, then he hugged me all of a sudden na kinagulat ko, lalo nung napansin kong okay lang kay kuya yung ginawa nitong si Mr. Zeiden, which was unusual of him—weird.
Habang kumakain, I really found it weird na para bang pinag-aaralan ako nung mister Zeiden like he was memorizing me for some reason, its creepy, yet I can't find any reason to hate the man which was again weird—even for me, and I know weird kase naman si kuya buong buhay ko weird na siya
***
We were on our way back nung biglang si kuya eh huminto sa kalagitnaan nung village, he said he need to take the call and that it was important, so I waited, nung nakita kong tapos na yung call I went out then I heard him sigh, I walked towards him and asked
"what's wrong?" tanong ko nung makalapit na siya
"nothing, but I gotta go, I can't drive you to school princess, you can take any car you want, just this once dahil may emergency ako at napakaurgent nito, but don't do anything stupid—or maybe take a cab, but then again rare lang din kung may dumaan man" he then sighed and well I was schoked, iiwan niya talaga ako dito??
"tss" was my reply kase namannnnnnnnn
"I'm really sorry princess, I really have to go, I'll make it up to you" he just said and as if on cue, he just kissed me on the forehead and he went inside the car and drove off, kaya pala mukha siyang nalugi kanina nung pinapanuod ko siya phasing back and forth habang may kausap ito pala yun
Then he left! What the fucking hell! Seriously?! Kuya?! You are so gonna pay for this big time Tristan Schneider Lecri!
kasalukuyan akong naglalakad lakad na pabalik sana sa mansion when a car screeched, and it was that familiar car that I saw that one night that caught my attention, the window opened and I saw him
"what are you doing here?" he asked, hindi ko naman mabasa ang expression niya, nakashades kasi ito at black kase ang interior ng loob na may red linings
"I was dumped" inis na sabi ko "yes. Dumped" patango tangong dagdag ko pa ulit
He stared at me and said "in the middle of this f***ng road? That person must be insane" he said na hindi makapaniwala, at sumasangayon ako sa kanya, baliw na nga si kuya ╮(╯▽╰)╭
"yes he is, and I'm gonna wreck his favourite car because of this" I said menacingly and I saw him stare at me like I was a crazy mad woman "de biro lang, dedekwatin ko na lang yung isang kotse ni kuya na matagal ko nang pinagnanasahan" sabi ko
"dumped huh?" bemused na tanong niya at mukhang wait is that relief I see sa gwapo niyang mukha? ಠ_ಠ "hop in" he said and I was shocked, is he—Zephyr the Black union head, the cold and emotionless, mysterious prince, giving me a lift?
pero teka is that a good thing? pag dating ng Siena panigurado—sigurado akong sa oras na bumaba ako sa kotse niya bukod sa pagtitinginan nanaman ako, malamang sa malamang eh pag ussapan nanaman ako ng madla—gugustuhin ko ba yun? uhh wala naman ako choice?
pag bumalik ako sa mansyon bukas ko pa mararating yung main door sa haba ng drive way na lalakarin ko para lang kumuha ng sasakyan (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`) sige na ngaaaaa no choice eh (╯°Д°)╯
"I'm just saving you from doing anything reckless" he just said then, once I buckled myself in, he drove off and went to that familiar road towards Siena, grabe naman saying yung chance, ang daya daya, kikidnapin ko na yung favourite baby ni kuya, saka naman dumating tong si Zephyr, finally I could flaunt a smexy car then..Ugh! wrong timing naman ohh....di bale makukuha ko din yun, and by the looks of it matagal pa bago makabalik ulit si kuya kaya I'm taking this opportunity mehehehe
"w-wait? What do you mean by reckless?" I asked
"well lets just say, someone did their homework well" he just said and then drove
