Prologue
Time check, its already 12:38 in the evening and still I can't sleep.
I am hugging a pillow trying to sleep when I suddenly remember the incident that has been played a biggest impact that changed me in what I’m now.
Minsan sa buhay natin, may mga pangyayaring either sasaya o malulungkot ka. This events can make you energized or can make you weak.
Masaya naman, oo. Pero sa una lang.
Meeting different kind of people making you adopt their personality, they can make you laugh, they can make you do the things that you’re not supposed to do, they’re making you want them more.
I consider myself as a prey and he is my predator that can harm me anytime, I feel so small and weak everytime he’ll going closer to me.
Nakakapanghina.
‘’Cass wake up!”
( ˃̶̤́ ꒳ ˂̶̤̀ )
“Wait, maaga pa give me 15 more minutes please”
Im still sleepy.
I covered my ears with my pillow and wrapped myself with comforter.
(= ̄ ρ ̄=) ..zzZZ
“Cassandra Meredith! Babangon ka o bubuhatin kita?” He just called me with my complete first name meaning he's getting pissed
"Ahhh! Liam put me down!"
He's now carrying me bridal style!
" I won't, stay still baka mahulog ka." He said while walking towards the bathroom.
" Put me down!"
"Not a chance" pang-aasar pa niya. "Aw! What was that for!?"
I punched him on the chest.
"Serves you right." I said before rolling my eyes to him.
"Maligo kana. Ang baho mo, tulo laway ka pa matulog."
Nanlaki ang mga mata ko!
"You!"
" HAHAHA. Just kidding." He pinched my nose, one of his habits. "Mag-ayos kana and make it fast your highness" Dagdag pa nito before turning his back on me.
Its not what you think. Liam is my bestfriend and he's pursuing someone but most of the time, people think that we're in a relationship. We treat each other as siblings, he's a year ahead but he doesn't want me to call him 'Kuya' kase nakakatanda daw yon.
I already started doing my morning rituals.
After an hour or so, Im done! Im good to go!
"Cassandra?" Its Liam again.
"Wait, Im coming!" One last look in the mirror before going out.
"What took you so long?" Iritadong tanong nito.
I smiled widely infront of him.
" Tss.. What's with that smile? Stop it and let's go." aniya bago ako hinila.
"Cassandra ija, di na ba kayo kakain?" its Nana Ophelia.
"Hindi na po Nana. Aalis na po kami" Paalam ko bago lumabas ng bahay.
"Hop in."
Liam opened his car para makasakay na ako.
“Thanks” sabay ngiti ko.
He nodded.
"Liam let's grab some food please, Im hungry." I said with a puppy face.
"Sure." Simpleng sagot niya.
"Yikes! Thanks!"
Tahimik kami sa byahe nang bigla siyang nagsalita.
“Are you ready?” tanong niya
“For?" kunot noong tanong ko.
“Going back to the Philippines?”
Yun lang pala.
“Of course I am super ready."
