CHINKY's POV
I DO not know what kind of hypnosis Grandma Yna used to make me want to grab what she was saying. Waaah! I'm really confused! I also felt sorry for Grandma and for her grandson.
I sighed. Lola Yna's convincing powers are really strong, my gosh! If I agree to marry Chrys, the problem is... he doesn't want to marry me.
But shouldn't I just help him to put again his heart together? Wait! And when did I become a mighty bond? Oh my! I am merciful!
Even Grandma's suggestion was to pretend that something happened to me and Chrys, but I am not that desperate!
My Devil Boss is so scary, I have never seen him so angry, but maybe if I told him about the things grandma and I talked, the world would collapse in an instant.
How can I get into trouble? I am just simple citizen of the Philippines who began working for Legacy to provide for my family's need and to study abroad — how did marriage get into my life? Or maybe there's something wrong with my fate?
CHRYSLER's POV
Damn! I was ninety nine point nine percent exhausted and stressed! Paperworks here! Paperworks there! Adding Grandma's nonsensical ideas, well, maybe tomorrow I'll be walking on the sidewalk while pulling a rope with cans because I gone crazy.
I heaved a sigh. I didn't do what Grandma told me to file for vacation leave because of Chinky and my wedding. I'm not crazy! Maybe I can soften Grandma's heart , so, that I can tell her that I can't get married to that woman.
No the hell way, I would marry her! I'm just a young man who looks for happiness and true love! And it's not because she's not beautiful or whatever, it's simply because there's no any room for another woman in my heart.
"Dammit!" I was startled when I heard a sound from a tumbled pot in the kitchen. As i approached the kitchen, i heard a murmur.
I wonder what that is? A thief? Or... I had goosebumps when i thought of ghosts. Nah, impossible!
I walked slowly to the guest room, to get my baseball bat, If it's a thief, i will smash him, but wait .. Why is he in the kitchen instead of my room?
Ahh, yeah, that thief might be starving to death or maybe he had plans to get the Refrigerator and my other kitchen appliances to sale it somewhere. I won't allow him to steal anything from me!
But hey, I'm all alone - what if they were ten? Nah, whatever! I'll get in! One .. Two .. Three .. Get ready! I was stuck at the entrance and blinked many times because of the person I was exposed to.
She was also surprised to see me, but eventually smiled. C-Chinky? Yeah! It was Chinky! WTH is she doing here again? I thought she left?
"What are you still doing here?" I asked.
"Ahm, You're Grandma said I can stay here for a while. She even took all my belongings at home and brought them here! I protested but.... "
"Ahhh, okay .." I said while nodding. Okay, she'll just stay here, alright. Noooo, wait! What? She'll be staying here? Is she crazy or what? As if I will allow her! "No! Get back to your house! You can't stay here! "I exclaimed. My head was starting to warm up.
"Look, it was your grandmother who decided to let me stay here, do you think I like it too?" She replied.
Grandma was very nimble and very determined, so maybe Chinky was helpless. But did she do anything to stop my grandma? Or at least pretend she was being attacked by an epilepsy, to keep hauling her belongings!
"Get out of here! Get out of our company! Get out of my life!" I shouted, then I pointed at the main door. "Leave!"
And I hit the table with full emotions and dramas. I feel like my eyes are turning red, because of my burning irritation. As I looked at her, my jaws dropped when I realized that she wasn't listening to me, because she had gone back to what she was doing and because she had an earphones, she didn't hear whatever I said. I calmed myself. I feel like my blood is boiling inside me.
"Hey! Why don't you listen to me!" I poked her shoulder.
"Oh my pink gay horse!" She said surprisely. Because she was too focused on cooking and dancing.
She removed her headphones. "What?!" She looked at me.
And suddenly my eyes widened as she came closer to me, I could still smell her breath, like a sweet candy..
I shook my head. WTH! I'm thinking?! So, I quickly pushed her away because as we got closer to each other, I might be possessed by an evil spirit and do something foolish to her.
"Ouch!" She screamed out loud. She ended up burning the frying fan behind her because of my push. "Aww!" She cried again. I quickly pulled her to sit in the dining chair, and I immediately took ice out of the freezer.
"Are you okay?" I asked her, then knelt down in front of her to put ice on her arm. It's crimson because of the burnt. It seemed so painful, because she was crying.
"I got burnt in a very hot pan because you pushed me! And you were asking me if I was just okay? You, are you okay?"She was full of sarcasm as she said it. Suddenly, I was consoled. Even so, here I am, I still have conscience left in my body!
"It's your fault!" I blurted out. I pushed her because she was so close to me.
"Yes! I'm the culprit of this whole thing! Why am I here? It's my fault too! You're going to blame everything on me! " She shouted at me. I got up from my knees in front of her.
I don't know what was that weird feeling I had earlier but don't get me wrong, it's not LOVE, never! Maybe it's a pity? Yeah, something like that!
And of course, she is the one to be blamed for everything that happened. I kept a distance away from her because she might take a revenge, you know. It's better to be safe.
"I'm sorry!" I almost whispered. But that's enough for me to hear what I have to say.
"What? What are you saying ?!" she shouted. I sighed, she really is a great contributor of the world's noise pollution.
"Nothing." I replied.
She stood up, then again went back in front of the pan. She removed it from the stove then brought it to the dining table. I could smell the delicious aroma of my favorite fried chicken! Yummy!
"Yeah, I cooked your favorite fried chicken as a thank you for saving me at the bar that night, you were my superhero! And Grandma told me that you love fried chicken, so, I cooked it for you." It was only then that she walked out of the house.
I was frustrated and did not move. I just heard the loud closing of the front door. Weird! But I didn't realize that I was already chasing after her.
"Wait!" I shouted, so she stopped walking, pulling her two big suitcases, which was even bigger than her.
She immediately confronted me. "What is it again?" She asked anxiously. Whoa! Relax, will you?
"It's already late, maybe you can go back home earlier tomorrow. What if you get lost? Grandma will surely beat me up. "I said softly.
"Am I a fool? Even cats can find their way back and I know where I live! Don't act as if you care for me! " She replied.
Hey! I am trying to be kind and considerate here. This girl is really weird. Tsk.
"Grandma will get mad at me when she finds out that I let you go!" I replied.
"Don't pretend to be nice because you're not. Now, I'm leaving, satisfied? And you won't be in any trouble again because I will quit from my job! I can't stand you anymore!" she said angrily.
I had goosebumps. She was so mad at me and maybe she even cursed me to death. I could also feel her black aura coming out of her body. An angry woman is the scariest person on earth.
"I'm sorry." I replied. She just looked at me in silence, as if she was shocked of what I said . "Stay here for tonight," And I quickly pulled her suitcase inside the house. I felt like she was following me. I don't know what's happening to me and why I did it again.
"I'll bring your suitcases back in the guest room." I said. I felt glad when she seemed to calm down. Then she entered the guest room.
I went back to the kitchen and ate the Fried chicken she had cooked for me.
Hmm .. how i missed my home cooked fried chicken, I've been craving this for so many years. It was tasted like Mommy's cooking back then. I didn't realize I was smiling as I ate the food.
While I was busy eating, my phone suddenly rang. I quickly wiped my greasy hands before taking my phone out of my pocket. And I smiled when I saw who was calling. It's Angela.
"Hello Angela !!!" I answered happily.
"Hey Chrys, what's up?" Why does her voice sound so sad?
"What happened?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Ahm, I have a sad news," she said. "My vacation was postponed because of my new endorsements and projects, I am really sorry, babe… "she replied.
She still had a lot to say but all of that didn't register in my brain. As if I had lost the desire to listen to what she had to say, as if I was a little boy who had taken away my favorite candy. Then all of a sudden I heard a sad song as my background music. Until she said goodbye to the other line.
I blew an air. I finished my meal without realizing it. I got out of the kitchen — went into my room — took off my suit— I want to get drunk tonight! I want to forget all these things. It seems like I'm going crazy when I stay a little longer here.
"Where are you going?" I was surprised when Chinky suddenly came out of the CR, just as I passed the door.
I stared at her face and I seemed to lose my voice because I could see, oh, was it Chinky? It looks so different! She had to pull out her full bangs, no thick eye glasses, and the fragrant scent was all over her. Her wet hair was dripping down her neck —she was just wearing a robe. I just noticed that she had a small and cute pretty face. She looks innocent, she is the face of NBSB and NKSB or No Kiss Since Birth! I swallowed the lump on my throat. Why does she look so hot?! Oh my! I'm burning up! I abruptly wanna punch myself.
"W-Why do you look so hot? I-I mean, ahm, it's so hot or humid tonight, so, you took a bathe, right? Yeah! I need to go."
Argh! What do I mean by this? I was able to fly so I hurried out of the condo. Wew! That was close. Before I left, I noticed that she was sneezing and her eyes were drowsy, perhaps she had caught a cold. Yuck, she has a virus!
