The Salvacion
"RiRi, wear your sunglasses too, para pareho tayo"
Yugyog ni Aniah sa braso ko habang nakaupo kami sa canteen, it's break time.
"Heh, 'wag mo kong idamay sa kalokohan mo"
Inalis ko ang mga kamay niya sa balikat ko at sinimulang sumubo sa tuna sandwich na binili ko. Linapag naman ni Nyllet ang tray niya na puno ng iba't ibang klase ng foods.
"I think this is enough"
Wow, diet daw siya niyan. Aniah fix her bangs and her hair bago nagsalita.
"How can you maintain your body figure, kahit andami mong kinakain? It's unfair" She said with bitterness.
"Perks of being an athlete" sabi ko.
Aniah is back to her usual self again being pretty,and lively. Hindi siya gaanong katangkaran, around 5' ft siya, but what makes her attractive is her personality. She's a social butterfly, well, siya lang naman ang Campus Queen, bow. We usually tease her-pa PEYMUS, famous masyado. Sa aming magpipinsan, siya ang maraming experience sa love, pati narin heartaches. Maganda nga, marupok naman, hay.
"Saan mo kasi pinulot yung boylet muna 'yun? Sa kumbento ba ?haha fucking study pers" bulong ni Nyllett na hindi parin, maka move on sa 'study first' guy. Well, that's a really a lame reason naman kasi.
Well, Nyllet is always like that. Lasing man o hindi, ang tindi mangalaska. Matangkad siya, physically fit at tisay siya like her mother, an Aussie. But unlike Asseya's delicate beauty and Aniah's charm, she is that disgustingly sexy, beautiful type . We envy her sexy, long legs. She has sparkly eyes and pouty lips. She's the school MVP princess and the captain of our volleyball team, the Moon spikers.
"Iww, boylet? You make it sounds gross? And please don't mention him again, it's embarrassing"
That's what I like about Aniah. She's moved on fast, she's not making it a big deal. Na love..is let come and let go. Parang motto ko lang, let live and let live peacefully haha
"Very good then, I raised you well, don't be shy to wear sunglasses, sabihin mo nalang may sore eyes ka"
I pat her head. She looked at me na parang naiinis.
"Yuck, you're so annoying, and why do you always pat my head. I am not a puppy" maarte niyang sagot at inayos ang kanyang buhok. Ang liit mo kasi...
Close kaming lahat na magpipinsang babaeng sa father side. We are the granddaughters of Mr. Fernand Salvacion, the famous owner of the Villa Hardin de Salvacion - the biggest inn and resort in the province. Lolo have three sons and two daughters.
Nyllet nd Nylipp are the twin daughters of my Tito Yael Salvacion with his wife Lanie. They have also a ten year-old son, ang pinsan naming si Nyx Thio.
Asseya and Anaiah are the daughters of Tito Laurel Salavacion and his deceased wife, Dione. Asseya is already a college student taking up medicine.
Ako naman, I am the only daughter of Celezar Salvacion, he died a long time ago. My mother also died when I was 8 years old. But I was raised and love by my father's family at nakatira ako kay Lolo.
I have two Titas. Tita Milan is married to the laywer, Mr. Yuchengco. I have cousins with them, sina Yram at Yrem Yuchengco at si kuya Yrom, diba rhyme sila.
And ang bunso ni Lolo ay si Tita Misha, a divorce woman pero happy daw siya . Anak niya sina Justice at kuya League, diba weird din ang pangalan nila haha Justice League.
The salvacion is obviously lazy in giving names. Yeah except mine, it's long na nakakatamad isulat.
My cousins have this graceful and elegant presence around them. Maraming nagsasabing magaganda at gwapo ang mga apo ni Mr. Salvacion, pero 'pag may gathering sa Villa, pinagkakamalan akong bisita ng mga kapwa ko bisita.
I don't know if something is strange about me. I'm slim, I have shapes, the average. I had a long black hair but usually tied them up. I had a thick eyebrow, a small face and a pair of dimples. I don't find them cute though. Maraming nagsasabing, I had this innocent eyes, they're small at medyo singkit which I find it irony with my personality. Pero ang pinakaiba ko nga sa lahat ng mga pinsan ko ay -- ako lang ang morena, like my mother.
All of my cousins have their own significant roles and worthy places they belong.
Like Anaih, she's the popular campus queen and the female representative of our batch, siya na talaga.
Si Nylett naman, the beautiful MVP player sa larangan ng volleyball while Nylipp is a famous social media influencer/vlogger and a multi-talented af.
At mga ibang pinsan kong nag-aral din dito sa Mikaelson Academy, they all left a legacy.
Tulad ni Yrem, the former school campus president during her time at ang kapatid niyang si Yram who is the Editor - in - Chief of our school publication for a long time. Si Justice, the Great excellence awardee when it comes to academics.
You know, they are the progressive and significant contributors gracing our society with their existence. And here comes me - the commonly one.
People are expecting me to be like them, but I am sorry, I like my life this way - easy, smooth, peaceful. Just like this.
Yas, this is my worthy place. My cousins are always supportive naman eh.
"Ey, brothers, what did I miss?" Ow, Nylipp is here.
Binagsak niya ang napakalaking bag niya na neon green sa harap namin at tsaka umupo ng nakangiti.
Of all my cousin, siya ang pinaka weird sa lahat ng weird. She also have a bangs like Aniah, and have this stylish and lively short hair with green highlights. Bob-cut siya actually na may bangs. I find Nylipp very cute and lit individual. She talks and walks the way she likes it. She is simply doing her things na parang may sarili siyang mundo.
Kambal niya si Nyllet pero magkaibang-magkaiba sila. Nylipp is shorter with round pointy eyes. What makes them identical is that they have the same lips, pouty.
"Hoy, naglalakad na wasabi, anong laman na naman ng bag mo't ang laki-laki?"
Nyllet asked her twin sabay abot sa bag.
"Shut up, porky. Walang foodums jan."
"Anung Porky!? Oy, palakang green, hindi ako mataba! Ang sexy ko kaya"
Here they go again, ganyan sila parang hindi magkapatid kung maglaitan. Ang takaw kasi ni Nylett...
"What's inside ba kasi?" Aniah asked curiously.
"It's my drone, I'm gonna film a school vlog later. Ico-cover ko ang aesthetic view ng school natin. Busu."
"Stop calling me busu!"
Busu is a Japanese term for ugly.
"Orayt. Busu!" She teased .
Haha baliw talaga.
She has nicknames for everyone. What's weird is that she calls me psycho, eh mas baliw naman siya sa'kin.
At dahil tuluyan ng napikon sina Aniah at Nylett sa kanya. They started attacking and hitting Nylipp, but she just keep on mocking them.
"Busu.."
"Porky.."
Tumatawa na lang ako at nanood ng payapa, nang may biglang nag-shoot ng popcorn sa aking bibig na kamuntik ko ng ikamatay. I choked hardly at halos maluha-luha ang mga mata ko sa kakaubo para maiduwal ang lecheng popcorn nayon. At rinig na rinig kong may nangingibabaw na tawa sa gilid-gilid.
The devil.
