ELLA
"Ella! Ella!!" Nagising ako sa sunod sunod na katok nung bwisit kong kapatid.
"What?!"
"What, WHAT?! Bumangon ka na diyan! Ma le late na tayo" and I take a look at my alarm clock.
"Duh 5:30 pa lang! At ang gising ko ay 6!"
"Kung gising mo ay 6 ang pasok ko ay 6!" O just ignored her and covered my ears. Pero siya hindi siya tumigil kakakatok. Kaya bumangon na ko at pinagbuksan siya ng pinto.
"Good our breakfast is already prepared maligo ka na tapos gumayak" this is what I don't like about her she's too bossy!
"Well bakit naman ako papasok ng maaga for you?!"
"Because you have to, remember last night? Tito Elias agreed that you can use his another car as our service, now maligo ka na"
"Ugh!" Pinagsaraduhan ko na lang siya at dumiretso na sa banyo. Pagkabihis ko ay kumain na kaming dalawa.
"Ilabas mo na lang yung kotse then ako na magliligpit dito"
"Pede ba wag mo kong utusan?!" Tumayo ako at padabog kong kinuha yung susi sa kamay niya. Well this black car is nice.
Paglabas ko ng gate sakto naman na tapos na siyang maghugas ng plato. At sumakay na.
"Tapos ka na agad? Sinabon mo ba yun?" I asked her.
"Just drive" the. I Started the engine. Walang nagsasalita samin pero na lang kung sasabihin niya kung san ako liliko.
"Late na ko ng 15 mins"
"Well sorry huh hindi naman kasi ganun ang pasok ko!" Dahil sa inis ko hindi ko napansin yung kasabay naming nagbpa park sa school.
"Ella?! Do you even know how to drive?!"
"Well yes kasi kung hind... hindi naman tayo makakarating dito ee besides it's another cars fault!"
Padabog akong bumaba para harapin yung stupid na driver nung isang car.
"Sanay ka ba mag park?!" Ang galit na sabi ko. But when I saw her ok I admit it she's like a goddess. Her black hair that it is in messy bun, her natural pink lips, and her scent of sweet vanilla. Plus her height that perfectly fit for a model.
"Well I think It's yo-" napatigil siya sa pagsasalita ng makita niya si Eris na lumalabas sa kotse.
"Gosh Eris ikaw pala nakasakay diyan are you ok? Are you hurt?" Ohhh she's too OA when she saw Eris siguro isa sa mga alipores nitong si Eris.
"I'm fine Cleo" At dumiretso na lang sa lakad paalis habang etong magandang babae ay sinusundan pa din siya ng tingin.
"Hey are you a fan of her?" Then she just give me a smile then she remove her sunglass to reveal her natural blue eyes. She's look very familiar to me.. Hmm where did I saw her?
"She's my friend by the way I'm Cleo"then she offer a shake hands. Which is kinuha ko naman, and bumitaw honestly na trauma na ko dun kay Shawn I felt that hindi na straight ang mga babae dito lalo na pag kaibigan ng step sister.
"You probably her new P.A" then I raised my eyebrow on her. Really do I look like a PA of my Step Sister.
"Excuse me? Ako PA well sorry I'm not I'm her new step sister" then she cover her lips which I saw it draws a little smile.
"Sorry you're Ella Quinn right?"
"Yeah?" Bilis ko naman sumikat?
"Hmmm I like your body do you want to join our swim-" then someone grab my hands oh it's her again.
"Stop! Stop! Sorry Cleo but first see first serve"
"It's first come first serve idiot" I correct her then she laugh so hard.
"Oh whatever basta sakin ka na" then she gave me this flirty wink of hers.
"Shawntel!" The angelic face of Cleo turns into well... Galit na galit na ewan.
"Yeah that's me... Isa pa bubuo kami ng alyansa ni Ella na papabain na si Eris sa pagiging President ng student council"
"I don't think she will agree with that Shawn, she's the new step sister of Eris" Shawn let me go with a shock on her face.
"Is that true Ella?!"
"Well sad to say yes so what's the big deal of that?" Nagkatinginan silang dalawa.
"You better keep that as a secret Ella between you, Cleopatra, Me and My Eris" did she put MY on Eris name?
"And me" tapos sabay sabay kaming tumingin kay Aira.
"Ok this is a non sense talk" then this Cleo press the button to lock her car at umalis na.
"SIYA BA YUN?!!" Yes finally nag sink in na din sakin lahat. Yung babaeng kausap ko ay yung sikat na model/ actress na si Lorelei
"Yup siya si Cleopatra Morgan a.k.a Lorelei the famous model slash actress of our generation" Shawn explained.
"Why are you a fan of her?" I cleared my throat I don't want to act like a stupid fan girl of her. Hindi ko siya nakilala agad dahil sa inis ko ngayong umaga.
"Of course not nakikita ko lang siya sa magazines" kinuha ko na yung bag ko sa loob ng kotse then I locked it sabay sabay na kaming naglakad papasok good thing wala pang masyadong tao dahil gusto ko muna ng katahimikan pero hindi mangyari yari dahil sa kadaldalan ni Shawn.
"Let's sit here in the back row" nakapagitna siya samin ni Aira.
"Pede kami na lang tabi ni Aira? Baka kasi hindi ako makapag concentrate kapag ikaw ang katabi ko" ang sabi ko kay Shawn kaya ako yung napunta sa gilid ng bintana at nakapagitna samin si Aira.
Currently we're on the 3rd floor kaya nakikita ko yung nasa labas, 7 am na dumadami na ang tao pero sa dinami dami ng tao ang nakakuha ng atensyon ko ay si Eris. She really looks like a well mannered person, a fine young beautiful lady.
"She's beaufitful right?" Nakita ko na lang na na nakaupo si Shawn sa desk ko. Shawn is a gorgeous too her tanned skin her height, and her black eyes if she studied on a university she probably be a Queen Bee because of her aura.
"Tsss" I just answered her.
"I really like her so much" nakatingin ako sakanya habang siya serysong nakatingin kay Eris.
"But you're a girl" i tried to contradict her but she just give me a smile.
"But I want to be her Prince and save her to her lonely kingdom" I see the sincerity in her eyes.
"Again you are a G-I-R-L" I try to spell it out for her so that she can understand what I'm trying to say.
"Sometimes prince can be a girl too"
"Oh poor you Shawn it will never happen as in never" hindi pa din nawawala yung ngiti sa mukha niya.
"Ikaw ba? Wala ka bang girl crush?"
"Wala because I'm straight as a pole bitch" again she just answered me with her laugh, then she pat my head na inalis ko kaagad.
"Nung umpisa akala ko din straight ako but when I was 8 years old I met a young girl she's my first kiss" then she back her stare to Eris. What? Her first kiss is Eris?!
"Maybe it's just that you're only confused, have you dated some guys out there?"
"Yes a lots of"
"You kissed them?" Then she just nod her head as an answer. Oh this girl is crazy.
"You want to come with me? I will meet some guys mamayang gabi"
"Oh I thought it's a date" ang pagbibiro niya.
"Shut up bitch it will never happen, ano sama ka?"
"Sure san tayo magkikita?"
"Hahatid ko lang si Eris then I'll pick you up here"
"All right I'll canceled our practice today" then she picked up her phone.
"And about that Shawn"
"Yes Ella?"
"Can I have a try out on you're team?" She hold my both hands and give me a wide smile.
"As a captain sure!" Then tumunog na yung bell. Kaya umupo na si Shawn sa upuan niya.
As what I see Shawn is a nice girl well she's a bi but I'm not against with it, but I'll help her to be a straight again and forget her stupid shit feelings for my step sister.

After class hinintay ko si Eris sa student council room.
"Why are you here?" This VP says, I just ignore her at sa wakas lumabas na din si Eris.
"Tara na" sumunod lang siya sakin. But this Athena grabbed her hands so we both stop at walking. I just cross my arms.
"Saan mo naman dadalhin si Eris?" Oh c'mmon don't tell me another girl who just fell in love with my step sister?! Give me a fuxking break!
"Athena... She is Ella Quinn she's my new step sister" this Athena girl just drop her jaw.
"Now will you please let her go? We really need to go home" sabay tingin sa orasan ko, kaya binitiwan na ni Athena si Eris. Tsaka sabay na kaming umalis.
"So tell me what's going on? Nagmamandali kang umalis" she put her seatbelt on.
"Aalis ako and I'm with Shawntel"
"Don't go out with her" ohhh smell something fishy.
"Why? Well I need to help her to forget her stupid feelings for one person" then I start the engine.
"I said no"
"Ohhh will you stop acting like a boss I'm your big sister Tita Madeline told me about that, I'm older than you 2 months"
"Such an Immature of you Ella, I know Shawn more than you know her so don't go out with her" she's still on her calm voice
"What's the bid deal my dear step sister? Are you jealous?"
"No"
"Why? You can't bare to see your first kiss dating with someone else?" Nandito pa din kami sa parking lot.
"Whata are you talking about?"
"Stop playing like innocent I know that Shawntel is your first kiss"
"No" and now there's a seriousness in her voice.
"You don't need to deny it I'm not against with it if you're a Les-" wh-what th...this girl is kissing me in my lips. After a few seconds umayos na siya ng upo niya.
"You are my first kiss" she says while she's looking directly into my eyes. I feel the sadness in her brown eyes. I want to slap her face but I can't there is something in my heart that telling me not to hurt her.
"Bakit mo ginawa yun?" I take a deep breath to calm myself before I talk to her.
"To shut you up" I can't believe it she stays calm na para bang walang nangyari kanina.
"Hindi mo ko mapipigilan aalis pa din ako kasama si Shawn" at mabilis kong pinaandar yung kotse.
----
"Hey Shawn sorry to keep you waiting" pagkababa ko kay Eris ay dumiretso na ko agad dito.
"No problem Ella so tara na?" Sumakay na siya sa kotse.
"Did Eris know about this"
"Yeah, and I don't know why she's trying to st-" ok I think I say too much.
"She's stopping you to hang out with me? I can't blame her" hindi ako sanay ng nakikita si Shawn na malungkot ok pang 2 days pa lang namaing magkasama but I can see a cheerful personality with her.
"Why do you like Eris? She's fucking cold as ice" she just give me her iconic laugh.
"Kasi siya yung laging nandiyan kapag down na down ako, she's always there for me... But last year when I confessed my love to her she's just dumped my feelings and that's my greatest regret. Kung hindi ko sinabi sakanya about my feelings maybe we are still friends" I don't see why Eris didn't want me to hang out with Shawn? Maybe because she just want to preserve my straightness then why the hell she just kissed me earlier?!
Beeeep!!!
Muntikan na naman akong mabunggo saisang kotse dahil sa kakaisip sa Eris na yun.
"Sorry na distract ka siguro dahil sa confession ko? Hindi ka siguro sanay makarinig ng ganung story"
"Well yeah... Ikaw lang yung nakilala ko na ganyan, but Shawn we live here in thus country na hindi lahat ng tao ay open sa ganyang relasyon some are just too judgemental to criticize LGBTQ, I don't want to hurt your feelings but you're a beautiful woman Shawn you can find a right guy for you. Hindi dahil si Eris ang first kiss mo ay siya na ang forever mo" ok long speech for me.
"Wait what?! Eris is not my first kiss" then she laugh so hard.
"Wh..what? B--"
"Sino ba nagsabi na si Eris ang first kiss ko? You are so hahaha forget it!" Tawa pa din siya ng tawa.
You are my first kiss oh no! That is what she meant! Shit Ella you're so idiot!
"I think we need to cancel this" ang sabi ko then I take my U-turn.
"Wait hey Ella what's wrong?" Nag seryoso na si Shawn.
"Nothing Shawn I just want to talk to her right now!"
"Wait don't tell me that you will say everything what I said earlier?"
"Of course not hindi ako chismosa I just really need to talk my step sister right now for our own personal matters"

Pagdating ko sa bahaywala pa din sila Papa at Tita Madeline.
Pagpasok ko kumatok ako kaagad sa kwarto ni Eris. Pagbukas niya ng pinto bumungad agad sakin ang step sister ko while she's wearing a sleeveless shirt and a short blue shorts.
"What? I thought you're with Shawn?" What's happening to me? I can't stop myself staring on her pink thin lips. I take a snapped on myself para bumalik sa dating ako.
"Why did you do that to me?"
"That kiss? Hindi mo pa din nakakalimutan?" Ang pang aasar niya sakin.
"Bakit mo nga ako hinalikan?!"
"To shut you up, well if you don't like it then return it" and now there's a smirk on her face she come closer and closer to me until I am against the veranda she cornered me both of her arms. Her brownish eyes keeps me off guard.
"Are you fuck-" hindi ko natuloy ang sasabihin ko when she bit her lips damn! It's hot.
"What?" Then I pushed her away that's why she fell on floor.
"You're disg- fuck! I don't want to see you again!" Padabog akong pumasok sa kwarto ko at humiga sa kama ko. When I hear the vibrate of my phone I check who's calling I amswered it.
"Thanks Yannie you Called" I feel a relief when I saw her name on my screen.
"Why what happened Ella? Sorry I'm busy for my examination"
"Nothing I just want someone to talk to"
"Oh may nangyari ba?" She asked with her concern voice. I can't say to her that I met a famous model slash actress Lorelei, that nerdy girl na inagawan ko DAW ng boyfriend, this crazy bi Shawn and about my kiss with my Step sister. Nah!!!
"Wala I just missed hanging out with you"
"So sweet I miss you too so much Ella, so how was your new school?" Oh damn pinaalala na nanaman niya.
"It's an all girls school so yeah I can't flirt with that school" then I heard a laugh on the opposite line.
"Bakit ka tumatawa?"
"Sorry pero pede ba kalimutan mo muna ang pag flirt? Mag-aral ka muna"
"Stop talking like Aunt Yannie" I frowned to her then I remove my clothes and kust wearing my undie.
"Well I just want to remind you that school is a place where you supposed to learn new things"
"Ugh! K fine" I don't have enough energy para makipagsagutan pa sakanya.
"Ok next week is a long weekend can I go there?" Napabangon ako dun.
"Oo naman! I'll send you the address"
"Ok see you next week Ella"
"See you next week Yanz" then I ended our call. When someone knock on my door. Maybe it's Tita Madeline because of it's soft knock. Pero pagbukas ko si Eris na gulat na nakatingin sakin with her cold look.
"Kakatapos ko lang magluto kumain ka na ba ng dinner?" Shit! Nung naramdaman ko yung hangin sa katawan ko ngayon ko lang napagtanto na wala akong suot na damit just my undies! Then I slam the door in front of her.
"Hindi ako kakain!" Ang sigaw ko habang nakasandal sa may pintuan at narinig ko yung footstep niya pababa ng hagdan.
Ok remember Ella Quinn you are straight as pole and you're 100% sure about your sexuality!!!
