"Ken come on, we're leaving!" My sister shouted.
I immediately took my AirPods and wear face mask and got off.
When I came out from the house, I immediately saw my mother was already in my older sister's 2.8 4x4 LTD fortuner car in the driver's seat next to the front. Of course I went to the back which is the passenger seat because I'm still not allowed to drive because I don't have a driver's license even though I knew how to drive.
My sister will drive since she is more knowledgeable and has a driver's license. I look at my cellphone and its already 8:00 am before we leave for divisoria.
The ride from Pasig to divisoria is only an hour since there is not much traffic yet. But my mind kept thinking on Ace Pierce Gonzales thing on f*******:. His last name is same with my crush's last name in my school.
Bryan Gonzales.
Bryan Gonzales is such a nice man. Sometimes a pervert. He is a muscular, handsome and a boyfriend material. He has a girlfriend which totally broke my heart. I don't know why but I cried seeing him with that girl,which until now I don't know what's the name I just know the face, punching my heart until it breaks into pieces. But I still have a crush on him. It seems like Bryan hits me by his hook like Franco in mobile legends then pull it just to hurt me. Sort of because he knew I have a crush on him because of Julia's talkative mouth. Julia is one of my best friend in my school so I told her a lot of my secrets but when it's about Bryan, he will say it to Bryan. Perfect best friend right? Sometimes I just wanted to slap Julia and zip his mouth. Going back to Bryan, I think he didn't like gays like me, he just respect lgbt community. And it's almost one year ago. It didn't bothered me anymore.
Arriving at the divisoria, many people were immediately exposed. The others don't have social distancing yet, they are really stubborn. My sister dropped us off in front of 999 mall.
"Mom, just wait for me at the food court, I'm sure it will take me time to park because of this cars!" My sister said.
"All right, Ken let's go," mama said and I just nodded and we left.
My sister can't really park because there are so many other cars line up to the parking lot just to park so the other cars almost take over the road. Including the crowded people.
Mama and I lined up to enter the mall, there was a temperature checking but I told to go first because she said earlier that she would buy something first before we went to the food court.
I followed her until we came to the end of a hallway in the mall. There was a*****e there that was very large where she stopped. I know who's the owner of this shop but nevermind.
"Mom, I need to take to the restroom," I said and she just nodded.
The restroom is nearby, just across the hallway so I walk as fast as I can.
"Bzzt! Bzzt!" my phone vibrated so I took it from my pocket while I'm walking faster.
"Patricia sent you a message," I saw the notification.
"Ouch!" someone ran into me again so my phone fell as well as myself to the floor.
"Sorry! Sorry! Are you okay?" A worried sexy and familiar voice that I've heard.
I just nodded while I'm still on the floor looking for my cellphone.
"Kennie?" The guy asked.
I'm surprised to heard my name so I look up to see who's talking.
"Bryan?" I asked.
Even though he's wearing a facemask, I can still manage to know him with his body and appearance and his voice.
He laugh.
"I'm surprised you're here. Looking for me?" He asked and laugh. He helped to get up and he took my cellphone and gave it to me.
"In your dreams,dick." I replied coldly but deep inside my heart is pounding because I saw him!
He keep asking that dumb question way back our face to face class.
"Ouch!" He said while holding his chest like as if he will have an heart attack.
I rolled my eyes and said goodbye to him.
"Next time look at your way not on your phone, babypie!" He shouted and It feels awkward for me to call me that stupid name by someone. Most of the people staring at me while I'm walking. That was so embarrassing. Ugh!
I'm finally done using restroom. I went to the stall were my mom is.
I saw her sitting in a side chair across from the store she had sold what.
"What took you so long?" she asked.
"I just looked for something." I sternly reply.
A man suddenly appeared from the door inside the store.
"Ms. Villanueva, here is your receipt. Thank you for trusting our store," he said.
"Thank you, Bryan. You're really handsome and kind." mama said to that guy.
"And cute," Bryan added and wink at me.
I rolled my eyes.
"By the way,this is my son, Ken. I guess you know each other since you're in the same school right?" Mama asked me.
"We're classmates,"
"We're best friends"
Bryan and I synchronizely said.
Mama looks surprise at me. She was shocked, I guess.
"This is your best friend and you don't even bother to tell to me?!" She asked me in disbelief and bump his hand on the back of my head.
"We're not that closed." I replied coldly. And it's the truth, were not that closed anymore.
"I'm sorry for his attitude, he's just childish." Mama suddenly said.
"Mom!" I shouted.
"Shut up, big brat!" She shouted.
I just rolled my eyes and folded my arms on my chest. While Bryan silently laughing.
"You can visit to our house if you want, I'll cooked you carbonara." She said to Bryan.
"Sounds good, thank you Mrs. Villanueva!" Bryan responded.
"Don't call me Mrs, just Claire,ok?" My mom said.
"Okay, Claire. Have a nice day!" Bryan said then wink again on me.
I rolled my eyes again.
"Let's go, Cathy might get mad at us." I said to my mom and she just nodded.
"Okay. Bye Bryan, see ya!" She said at last to Bryan and wave her hand. And then we left.
We are eating on the third floor now which is the food court of this mall although my sister took a while but my stomach managed to wait for a few minutes.
"By the way mama, patricia just texted me recently. We will be having a sleep over in her house tomorrow, Can I join?" I said. Asking my mom's permission.
.
"Is Bryan will be there also?" My mom asked.
I stared at her with my surprising looks. And Cathy, whose beside here, looks surprised also.
"Why are you so into that guy?!" I asked with embarrassment.
"Just answer me first!" She said.
"I don't know. Maybe." I deadpanned. I seriously don't know. It's not my business though.
"Ok, fine." She said lastly.
I sighed in relief that the conversation was done. I saw Cathy eating her haluhalo. Minding her own business.
