ENCHANTED ( TAGALOG )

" Jen, I'm glad you're here na, I've been waiting for you since earlier. Bakit ngayon kalang? Mali-late na tayo sa unang araw natin sa klase". Reklamo ng kaibigan ni Jennie na si Rosé. Si Roseanne Park or mas kilalang Rosé ay kababata ni Jennie. Simula't sapol ay hindi na mapaghiwalay ang dalawa kaya naman napagkakamalan silang magkapatid. " I'm sorry Chipmunk, busy lang. May pinagawa rin kasi sakin si Dad tungkol dun sa presentation mamaya sa upcoming summer campaign ng Chanel". Sagot ng dalaga na may matang kahalintulad ng pusa. " My gosh Jen, you're still a student, you're not even graduating yet in college so why uncle wants you to handle the presentation for the summer campaign?". Sagot ng dalaga. " I'm his only child Rosé, ako ang nag iisang tagapag mana ng Chanel so I have no choice but to be obliged to whatever he wants me to do". Sagot ni Jennie sa kaibigan. " Yeah right, pati love life mo siya na ang nagde-decide. Jen kailan ka kokontra sa mga pinapagawa sayo ng daddy mo? He even set you up to someone na hindi mo naman mahal. That guy named Kai? he's nothing but a jerk guy. Sobrang yabang!". Inis na sambit ni Rosé sa kanya. " I don't have a choice Rosé, even if I wanted to complain I can't. Wala na si Mom na kokontra kay dad and wala rin akong magagawa dahil anak lang ako". Hindi naiwasang maging emosyonal ni Jennie. Simula ng namatay ang kanyang ina dahil sa sakit sa puso ay wala na siyang naging kakampi. Tanging si Rosé nalang ang natatakbuhan niya sa tuwing sinasaktan siya ng kanyang ama kapag hindi nito sinusunod ang mga gusto nito. " Stop crying, I'm here for you". Yakap ng dalaga kay Jennie na walang magawa kundi malungkot sa sitwasyon ng kaibigan. . ---------------------------------------------------- ( YONSEI UNIVERSITY ) ( LISA's POV ) " Lisa!" I looked behind when I saw my best friend running towards me. When she reached me, she heaved a deep sigh before hitting my head. " Yah what the heck Chu! para saang yung pagbatok mo sakin huh?". I raised my voice at her since masakit yung pagkakabatok niya. " Because you didn't wait me. Bakit hindi mo ako sinundo sa mansion? tawag ako ng tawa sayo pero hindi mo sinasagot yang cellphone mo." This freaking chikin retorted. " Lowbatt". I shortly stated. " Lowbatt eh nag ri-ring nga yang phone mo e. I even called your mom and she said na hindi ka umuwi kagabi. Sabihin mo nga sakin, hindi ka pa rin ba tumitigil sa kakatrabaho mo dun sa coffee shop na yun?". This freaking chikin asked me. " Nope". I flatly stated. " Lisa you are the heiress of the MNBN Group. Ang pinakamayaman na tao sa buong Korea at isa sa pinakamayanang pamilya sa Asia tapos nagpapakapagod ka sa pag tatrabaho sa maliit na coffee shop?!". Sermon ni Jisoo sa akin. She's right, I am Lalisa Manoban and I'm the heiress of the MNBN group which means we owned a lot of restaurants, hotels, airlines, resorts, clothing line and maging MNBN Jewelry but of course my parents haven't introduced me to the world. Nobody knows me, kahit anong pag iimbestiga ng media para malaman ang nag iisang anak ng mga Manoban wala silang makuhang impormasyon. Ni hindi nila alam if babae ba or lalaki ang anak nila hahaha. Ang galing talaga ng parents ko. Gusto ng pamilya ko na hanggat hindi pa ako ipinapakilala sa lahat ay maging pribado muna ang aking buhay para magawa ko lahat ng gusto ko and isa na yun ay ang maexperience na magtrabaho sa isang coffee shop. Weird right? but my parents supported me. That's what I love about my parents, they are never against whatever I want and I'm happy with that. " Look Chu, tayo lang ang nakakaalam tungkol sa identity ko. Hindi alam ng lahat na ako ang anak ng business tycoon na si Marco Brüschweiler Manoban at Chitthip Brüschweiler Manoban besides, my parents were supported to whatever I want. They are not against if I work in a small coffee shop instead they want me to learn and interact with different types of people". I retorted which made her to shut her mouth. " Fine". She said so I smiled and wrapped my hand around her shoulder. " Don't worry, to make it up to you I will buy you a bucket of chicken, gusto mo yun?". I told her and upon hearing the magic word chicken she immediately smiled. " Yes please". She said and jump in happiness. " Mukha ka talagang manok kahit kailan, tara na mali-late na tayo hahaha". I said and we happily walk to our class. ----------------------------------------------------- ( JENNIE's POV) " Hi Jen, hi Rosé". I heard Jisoo greeted us as soon as she entered the classroom. She sat beside Rosé and gave her a warm smile. " Hi Jisoo, you look happy today, I wonder why?". Rosé asked the latter. " It's because Lisa promise me na ililibre niya ako ng isang bucket na chicken". Masayang sagot ni Jisoo sa best friend ko and speaking of Lisa, she also entered the classroom and the girls were start squealing when they saw her. Yup, even Lisa is not one of the elite students here in Yonsei andami pa rin niyang admirers mostly mga babae. I guess having a face like a barbie made her popular here in school kahit na hindi siya mayaman. Jisoo introduced me and Rosé to Lisa on the first day of school. She said that she's her best friend and at first I wonder how a person like Lisa became friend with one of the richest family in Korea, Kim Jisoo's family. At first naisip ko na related siya sa business tycoon na si Marco Manoban, ang pinakamayamang pamilya sa South Korea and Thailand at isa sa mayamang pamilya sa asia but when Jisoo told me that Lisa came into an ordinary family at nag tatrabaho siya sa isang maliit na cafe ay napag isip ko na baka pareho lang sila ng last name. Also, Jisoo told us that they became friends when Lisa help her when they were a child. Someone bullied her and Lisa came to the rescue and offered her the chicken that she was eating during that time to stop her from crying. Since that day, they became best friends. " Hi Nini, hi Rosé". Lisa greeted us, she looked at me and smiled but I just rolled my eyes at her. " Snob naman niyan". I heard she says. " If you're just here to pissed me off you better stop Lisa, I'm not in the mood, isa pa stop calling me Nini, I have a name and that's Jennie". I told her in annoyance. " I know but calling you Nini is cute, bakit wala ka sa mood?". She asked confusedly. Did I forget to tell you that Lisa likes to pester me. Ever since natarayan ko siya nung nabangga niya ako sa cafeteria e hindi niya na ako tinigilang asar asarin and I hate to say this but since the very first day that I laid my eyes on her, she became my crush but of course instead na maging mahinhin ako sa kanya I chose the other way, sinungitan ko siya. Lisa didn't know na I have feelings for her, and wala akong balak sabihin sa kanya dahil alam ko naman na wala siyang interest sakin kahit na alam ng lahat na she's into women than men. Isa pang dahilan, my dad. Kapag nalaman niyang may gusto ako sa isang tao na hindi katulad ng status namin sa buhay at siguradong hahadlang siya plus kontrolado na niya ang buhay pag ibig ko. " Wala kana dun". I shortly answered her. " Hoy nag aaway nanaman kayong mag lovebirds". Jisoo teased us so I rolled my eyes at her to hide the blush in my face before they could see the red tint in my cheeks " Nini lovebirds daw tayo sabi ni Chu hahaha". Lisa laughed at me so I hit her head that made her hissed. " Ouch ang sakit nun ah, di kaba kinikilig sa sinabi niya? kung iba yun baka nangisay na sa sahig hahaha". She said and laughed. " I'm not like anyone else Lisa. Hindi lahat crush ka duh". I said and she was ready to answer me but then someone interrupted her. " Jen". I lifted my gaze to see kung sino ang tumawag sakin and that's where I met Kai's gaze. I forgot na dito rin pala siya nag aaral sa Yonsei. Nasira na ang araw ko. " What?". I asked while raising my brow at him. " Nako nasungitan ka rin bro". Sabat ni Lisa pero hindi siya pinansin ni Kai at diretsong lumapit sa akin. " Let's have breakfast together Jen". Kai smiled at me. I was ready to answer him na busog pa ako but this monkey beside me butted in. " I'm sorry Jongin pero umoo na sa akin si Jen na magsasabay kaming kumain so sorry not sorry". Lisa told him, I noticed how Kai's gritted his jaw at her. " I'm Kai's boyfriend". Kai retorted at her but Lisa just laughed in a teasingly tone. " So? ano ngayon kung boyfriend ka. Bakit required ba na laging sumama sayo kapag yayain mo siya kung ayaw naman?". Sagot ni Lisa. " Best friend ko yan". Jisoo cheered he Lisa. Wala talagang pinipili tong unggoy na to, kahit sino nalang talaga aasarin.
