//Chandra Margaret//
I immediately put all the snack that I prepared for the boys. My hands are shaking a bit as I go to the living room. There is three boys in total. I dare not to look in their faces.
"H-here is the food." I clear my throat. Even my voice is shaking. The boy in the single sofa look at me. He's reading a book in his hand. I know that book! It's Our dawn is hotter than day. A book about two people who keep their night busy while sleeping in the daylight.
I kind of find it weird for someone like him to read that novel. "Thank you for the food." The man in the sigle sofa said softly. I blink a few times as I stare at his face. He's handsome with a baby face. He look harmless and gentle. I gulp before fixing my glasses.
"Are you even sure that she's the new maid?" An arrogant voice coming from a man with a scary arrogant face said making me want to explain and introduce myself. But the man from the kitchen beat me again.
"Why? She look like a maid. Beside if you are thinking that she is one of Michael's fling--" The tree of them stare at me. It makes me so uncomfortable that my palm started sweating. "--You gotta think again." The man from the kitchen continue.
I was about to open my mouth to talk when we all heard a car engine dying followed by my brother's appearance.
Kuya Michael's face instantly changed when he look at his friends. "What the fuck are you guys doing here and why the fuck is my sister in front of you?!" He harshly said.
I fix my glasses uncomfortably. Kuya I just want to remind you that I'm not used into cursing words. And it looks like my Brother's mouth is a cursing machine. Momma, my mother's mother, raise me properly. So I'm not into cursing and bad people. But it looks like I have a bad boy of a brother together with his friends.
"WHAT?! SHE'S YOUR SISTER?!" I grimace with his loud voice. The man from the kitchen. The one with the Anime face. Gosh! He is so loud!
Kuya Michael raise a brow. "Why? Did you did something stupid?" He suspiciously ask. The three men look at me and the Anime bishy laugh nervously.
"Of course we did nothing. Absolutely nothing." There is thickness in every words he said. The man with the glasses shake his head while the arrogant looking man is--- still looking arrogantly.
Kuya Michael look at me. I shake my head and my hands. "They did nothing. I just delivered some snacks for them."
It makes Kuya Michael to frown. "Can't you get your own food Dice?"
"Dice thought your sister is the new maid." The man in a glasses said before closing the book. He stand up and extend his hand.
I look at him as he smile at me. I fix my falling glasses awkwardly. "Hi, I'm Christian Michael's friend." I awkwardly shake his soft hand. Gosh! I feel ashamed for my rough hands.
"M-Margaret-- It's nice meeting you." I immediately let go of his hand and look away. I think I found my new crush. I have a lot of crushes that came from different books. Yes. I'm a hopeless romantic. Someone who loves fictional characters.
"Ops... sorry for earlier Margaret. I'm Dice by the way and that ugly arrogant man is Stone. Yeah~ he's like his name!" Dice, the Anime bishy said. He's bubbly.
"So you really thought my sister is a maid?" Kuya Michael ask and Dice nervously laugh again making Christian to laugh.
"W--well, I just ask for a food? It won't kill right?" Dice hesitantly said. My brother shake his head. "It can kill. I will for making my sister work for you." My brother roll his eyes before settling the foods (he have in his hands the whole time) in the table.
"Come on, Chandra. Eat with us." Kuya Michael said. I shake my head before smiling slightly. "I have a lunch with Mommy before going here...so I'm kinda little full."
Kuya Mayk nodded his head. "Okay. If you want you can take a nap first and there will be foods if you are hungry. " I just smile at my brother before going upstairs.
This is so much for my first time being here! When I finally flop in my bed. I just stare at the ceiling-- "oh, nice there's glow in the dark moon and stars." I smile and think that Kuya Mayk is so thoughtful in making my room better.
I get my phone from my pocket to have a music. It's so quiet here. I'm not used in being in a quiet place. It's somehow making me feel uncomfortable. I think I will need to adjust more since I was used in having my cousins around.
"This hurt that I'm holding's getting heavy
But I'ma keep a smile on my shoulders 'til I'm sweatyBeggin' on my kneesScreamin', "Someone come and help me"But by the time they're thereI've already hid the body~"I think I will miss my cousins company. It makes me to wonder. Will I gonna get any friends here?
"My breath's gettin' short and I'm unsteady
Wellin' up in tears as I lay upon your bellyTelling you, "I'm fine I don't really need nobody"But you say through a sighThat I said that lie already~"To think of it, I don't have much friends even in the province. I'm picky when it comes to someone that I will trust.
"I just needed company now
Yeah, I just needed someone aroundYeah, I don't care what song that we playOr mess that we makeJust company nowComfort crowd~"
I smile as I think of what bond I will make with my brother. I was also thinking on opening the topic about our parents.
Yeah, I just needed company now
Yeah, I just needed someone aroundYeah, I don't care what song that we playOr mess that we makeJust company nowComfort crowd~I was so lost in my thoughts to the point that I slowly fall asleep while listening to a random music...================================================================================//Boy's conversation//When Chandra is finally out of the boy's site. Dice look at Mayk's face."Is she your half sister? I remember you saying you have haft sister." Mayk give him a hard blow in his head making him wince. "Shit Bro! You don't have to hurt me! I'm just asking. She doesn't look like a full blooded sister."Christian frown at Dice words. "She look like Uncle Michael." Dice look at Mayk. He looks like someone who will kill now.Dice nervously laugh. "Hey, chill. I'm sorry okay? It's just-- your sister is such a nerdy." It is something that nice in Dice personality. His true and easy to read. But sometimes it will also be the one to kill him."Fucker! She grew up with our Mother. Of course she's too sheltered. I'm being careful with my words you know. She's religious and old fashioned. You can say that she's a simple young girl from the province."Mayk sigh. "I think we should all
//Chandra Margaret//I woke up feeling a little dizzy. It's look like I over nap. With my still sleepy head, I go down to look for my brother. I immediately saw him in the kitchen cooking. I frown "what's that?" I ask.Oh, judging from the smell, I think I know. It's Pancit canton. I like it more than spaghetti. I remember when we are still young, whenever I see Kuya we will eat five packs of pancit canton. With our small mouth, we can eat it all in one go."You haven't eaten anything. I kind of cook this since I will be taking you to the mall later." As Kuya inform me about mall, my sleepy head wake up. I smile and think of the book that I will buy."It's for the new semester right?" I ask to make sure. I don't want to buy anything anyway. Kuya Mayk nodded his head."Yeah, you don't have things since I told you to leave all your old school materials in Province." Yeah, he told me that.When we are done eating, I immediately go in my room to
//Chandra Margaret//Stone push himself out of the shelves and left me standing awkwardly. "Did he just quote Howl's words?" I ask myself. Or maybe it's in my mind?I just shrug before getting all the things that I need. Luckily I have my money on me. Kuya Mayk is still in the parking lot. What's taking him so long?A certain book attracts my eyes as I stare at it. It's You made my dawn. The sequel for Our dawn is hotter than day book. I was thinking of giving it to Christian. Seeing him reading the book earlier. But We are not that close for me to give him a book right?"Hey, Province girl still not done?" I look at Stone's annoy face as I grab the book and go to the counter."Did my brother texted you? I mean he is still not here..." I'm not worry about the money. I just want to be with my brother. Speaking of my dear brother. Stone's phone suddenly ring making the both of us to look at his pocket. He answer the call while I finish giving the thi
//Chandra Margaret//"Woah! You finally brought a girl in my cafè huh?" Amusement is dancing with the girl's eyes while looking at me and Stone. I frown as I try figuring who she is."Midnight." Stone address her presence. Stone looo at me and I look back at him. "She's the owner and a friend of mine."I mouthed "ahh" and look politely at Midnight. She smile so brightly like her hair. It's weird. Her hair matches the theme of her cafè. Serenity and rose quartz. "You find my hair weird?" She ask and I immediately shake my head. "Nope. Haha. I find it amazing and I think black and white hair suits you better." I bite my lip when I saw her smirk.Midnight wink at me before putting a menu book in the table. "I already use that color and I absolutely love it but I only dye my hair black and white when I need to kill someone." And then she wink again while I pale.W--what?! Kill?! Is she a killer?! Woah! I'm still looking at Midnight with n
//Chandra Margaret//I stare at my reflection in the mirror nervously. Monday, the day I always hate. And today will be my first day at my new school. I just hope I will stay invisible in everyone's eyes."You nervous?" Kuya Mayk ask me while looking at the road. I stop stomping my legs and look at him through the mirror. "I guess? Can you do me a favor?" I really need him to do this favor for me.Kuya look at me before nodding. "Sure, what is it?" I bit my lip before speaking. "Can you keep our status down? I mean I don't want anyone to know that I'm your sister..." I never been into this school but as what I have seen in my brother's fbook account, I know he's kinda famous.Michael frown at me. "What's wrong with them knowing you're my little sister?" He ask and I'm lost in my thoughts. Maybe because them finding out means I will be getting everyone's attention? I don't like that. I need to stay low profile."I just want a peace new high scho
//Chandra// *PRESENT* I don't like your little gamesDon't like your tilted stageThe role you made me play of the foolNo, I don't like you~ The night is cold as I walk down the dark alley. I look around while my phone is in my ear. "Are you sure this is the right address?" I still keep on walking even though I don't know where I am really going. I roll my eyes out of frustration. "It's their signature. Mysterious. That's what makes them famous plus their signature foods." Allan, my secretary said. I smirk when I think I finally found cafè. "I need to spend money in scouting this man. I just hope he's handsome enough to boost my working ability." I whisper while still on the phone with Allan. He just laugh a little. I don't like your perfect crimeHow you laugh when you lieYou said the gun was mineIsn't cool, no, I don't like you~ I was about to grab the handle of the door when I hear what Allan
//Chandra Margaret//First of all, the song is at fault. Second, that bad boy annoys me to the point I forgot to walk. And lastly, I was running so fast even though I don't know where to go. I just keep my eyes on the map and back to the hallway.I think I'm almost-----" Ugh!" I was startled when I bump into a wall. Wall?! Really?! In the middle of the hallway?! I thought go straight map?!"Oh, I'm sorry are you okay?" A familiar voice ask while helping me to stand up. I got a little dust in my skirt so I swipe it first. "Y--yeah I guess--" I still need to find the office! I don't want to be late. It will cost me an attention."You need help?" He ask kindly. I look at his angelic face and back to my map. Maybe his help won't hurt right? I sigh and ask. "Where can I find the office?" I think the map is out of date. I've been searching for the office for like an hour now.Christian walk closer to me to take a look at the map. I held my breath the mom
//MIDNIGHT MOURGE//=Flashback=(Song: Good day to love)"Dazzling sunshinefeels pretty goodI’m clumsy in everythingI’ve always beenI Know~""I heard you have a tough competitor. Should I expect you to lose this game huh?" I devilish smirk is on Edeth's lips while mocking me. I just continue drinking my wine while scanning the whole boring event.I recieve an invitation from the Styvier, saying I should go because I'm the favorite grandchild and of course the favorite topic of Marites! I smirk at her. "Why dream of it? Do you really think I'll go down that easily?" I laugh a little before returning my eyes at my cousin. "I'm not as easy as you think I am." I turn my look at Edeth again. Seeing her being furious is making me happy."Look at you...you can't even copy me. Try harder bitch." I just shake my head before leaving her in Shock."It’s complicated in many waysthese days
