The classes are about to start after two weeks from now. So, I'm thinking to buy school supplies.
My uniform was also delivered last week, to complete the package to go to the school, I'll buy my things now.
I take a bath and I choose my clothes. I'm wearing my off-shoulder tee and a tartan skirt and flat sandals. I do my hairstyle in a high ponytail and do my make-up to my face. I wore my apple watch, prepared the ear pods and I get my bag and iPhone.
I went downstairs and I'm happy that I see Daddy and Mommy in the living room, I will say to them that they accompanied me to the mall.
If Mommyla was here, she immediately come with me and we buy my needs. I guess Mommy's do the same.
"Oh, Hope where are you going?" Daddy asked when he noticed me.
"Mall." I smiled.
"Why? What will you do there?" Mommy asked.
"Buy school supplies, If you are not busy can you accompany me?" I pleaded.
"We're busy. " Mommy in her strict voice.
"Tss, fine." I rolled my eyes, my hopes fades and I get pissed. They are busy? Just one day that they will give time to me but she reasoned out that they are busy.
"Hope?" She raised her voice but I immediately went outside with my heavy feeling.
Kuya jumped a bit when I bumped him.
"Saan ka pupunta?" He asked.
"Bakit sasamahan mo ba ako o hindi rin?" I rolled my eyes, my mood when I woke up was changed immediately because of Mom.
"What's wrong with you?" His brows furrowed.
"Tsk, I'm going to the mall buying school supplies. Nagpapasama ako kila Mommy dahil ganon si Mommyla pag bibili ako but they are busy daw." I rant.
"Ako na ang sasama sayo." He insisted, I pouted but suddenly my mouth curved into a smile. I followed him in his car. When we arrived at the mall, we walked towards the boutiques.
"Kuya hindi ko alam kung anong brand ang maganda." I'm frustrated that minutes from now we are just walking around here.
"Should I call Amelia?" He asked. I nodded and he immediately called Ate Amelia.
"Hello... Can you come here to the mall?.... We don't know the brand of girl things...... Okay, we'll wait for you here... "He ended the call. I forgot something wala pa silang number sa akin. Si Daddy lang ang meron.
"Kuya, wala kang number sa akin."
"Phone?" I gave him my phone, he stared at it.
"Spoiled ka kila Mommyla. " He commented.
"Mas gusto ko dun." I pouted.
"Why? Ayaw mo ba kaming makasama?" He sadly said. We are sitting on the bench of this mall.
"Gusto...but feeling ko out of place ako dito. Gusto ko rin makabond si Mommy like yung ginagawa namin ni Mommyla." I sadly told to him.
"Sorry..." He suddenly said.
"Why?" I asked.
"You know gusto ka rin naming makasama, ilang years na wala ka sa tabi namin. Ilang beses ka lang namin nakikita. Palagi naming sinasabi na miss ka na namin. Nag request pa nga kami kila Dad na puntahan ka doon, pero pag nandoon kami lumalayo ka, sila Mommyla lang kinakausap mo. Hope, noong dumating ka gusto ka naming makabonding, hindi pa nga sapat yung nasa probinsya tayo kasi alam kong napipilitan kang pakisamahan kami at yung mga pinsan natin." He sighed and gave me a small smile.
"I'm sorry Kuya, babawi ako sayo. " I said and I rest my head on his shoulder. It's exactly Ate came, the feeling I felt of what Kuya said I've felt to Ate too.
"Ate can I hug you?" I told her, her forehead creased in confusion but she forgive me for what I wanted.
"I'm sorry ate." I said in a small voice while hugging her.
"Aww, baby sis." She emotionally said.
After that, I smiled at them both.
"Tara na!" I widely smiled at them. They grinned.
We followed ate to the boutiques of Gucci.
"Pili ka ng bag mo." She pointed to the bags. I looked around.
"I want that ate oh! " I pointed the Korean style backpack. A shade of light pink.
"Miss, eto nga po." Ate told to the saleslady.
My brother patiently waiting for us at every boutique, the girls turn their heads to him. He doesn't do anything to impress the girls but they went to him. He has this captivating and appealing face while Ate Amelia is admirable and graceful.
Kuya is in fourth-year college, he studied in Ateneo, his build was matured. He's 6 ft above. I also noticed him every day to go to the gym.
While Ate is in the second year of college in DLSU. I don't why they separated, they have the same course. She was part of the cheer dance and other groups about dancing. Her hobby was dancing in the morning.
I know to dance but I don't focus on that. I prefer swimming and riding a horse when I'm in the U.S.
After we buy bags, I went to Kuya but he was talking to a girl wearing a red body con dress. I raised a brow. Is she's Kuya's girlfriend?
"Let's go, Hope," Kuya said to me and he stand up leaving the girl looking at me with confusion but it's immediately changed into bitch.
"You didn't say that you have a date for today." She looked at me from head to toe and she smirked.
What? Date of Kuya? Me? Is this stupid? The age gap between me and Kuya was seven years. This is girl is blind.
Ate is not yet here, she paid for her bags.
"Girl, I remind you now, you're his girl for today only, and sorry for that I am the first girl in his life. He doesn't forget me easily." She smirked at me.
My lips parted. She's getting to my nerves. If this is the kind of girl was dated by Kuya, I will surely never stay with this girl.
"Vena!" Kuya warned her.
"What are you talking about?" I asked irritatedly.
Before she was about to answer but Ate came to us.
"What's happening here?" She asked confused.
"Amelia, you're with your Kuya's date. I thought you never come to your Kuya when he has a date?"
"Stop it!" Kuya butt in.
"What the hell! Who?" Ate asked.
"This girl!" She pointed me.
"God! She's our youngest sister." Ate revealed.
The girl called Kuya's Vena swallowed the bile in her throat and she paled. I smirked.
"Let's go Ate, KUYA." I loudly said the word Kuya and we walked away leaving her in shock.
"Let's take a picture!" Ate announced. She went in front of us. Kuya put his hand on my shoulder. We smiled at the camera of the cellphone.
After that, we decided to eat.
I'm getting hungry for that clown, she didn't know that I'm the sister of the man she flirts with.
"Kuya Chicken Fettuccine and Banana Strawberry Smoothie," I told Kuya.
While waiting for the food to serve,  I opened my Instagram and scrolled.
I see the tag post of Ate.
AmeliaF.G: siblings bond.
That was what she captioned, I went to comment sections. There are commenting about Kuya and reactions because of me.
Heart_sai: Amelia? Do you have a younger sister?
I went to the message and Alice message me and some of my batch mates.
AliceMiller: I miss you, Hope.
AishaGonzalez: I miss you too. How's the US?
AliceMiller: malamig parin😆
AliceMiller: I have something to tell you.
AliceMiller: remember the boy gave you chocolate with a letter. His name is Lux, he's asking you to me.
AliceMiller: I gave your IG account to him. If someone chats you named Lux Wilson.
AishaGonzalez: let's see it? You know hahaha.
"Hope, put down your phone. Eat first!" Kuya in a serious tone. I put down my phone and started to eat.
I looked around and someone caught my attention. He's wearing a polo shirt and jeans. Whatever he wears, he looks good. Ang sarap! Ng pagkain.
Our eyes met, I felt butterflies on my stomach the way he stares even it is cold.
His eyes are so deep and beautiful that my whole world is reflected in them. I averted my gaze, I can't contain his stares, it's too much for my heart.
Did I have a crush on him? No, it's big No!
But he was with another girl. The girl was giggling at him and for the first time, I see him smile. The true smile. It's like someone stabbed my heart on that view.
This is frustrating. I should focus on something else not on him.
I continued eating, even I can't appreciate the taste of it. It was like I'm a kid who did not give a candy.
When we were done eating, we went to the stores of shoes.
"Mario D' boro, Rusty Lopez, Parisian, Dior... " Ate continued saying brands of shoes. I scratch my forehead, lastly, we went to every boutique.
"Last, sa National Bookstore tayo." Ate announced when I'm done buying shoes and sandals.
We went inside the national bookstore. There are a lot of people.
Kuya following me everywhere, he's looking for books.
"Kuya nagbabasa ka ng mga romance books?" I suddenly asked him
"Of course!" He confidently answered.
"Suggest ka nga." I told him. He nodded looks for a novel book. He put it on our cart.
"I'll buy them for you." He said and he go to the counter.
Ate done buying my school supplies.
"Ate damit. " I requested.
"Okay!" She agreed.
We went to the boutiques of clothes.
"Hope, ang revealing ng mga damit na yan. You're so young to dress like that." Kuya said while his brows furrowed looking at those clothes. A short dress, tops, and shorts. 
"I'm comfortable with these clothes." I pouted.
"Hayaan mo na Kuya. " Ate said to Kuya. He's overacting.
He didn't answer but he put on t-shirts and other conservative clothes.
"Protective brother." Ate whispered, I nodded at her while looking at Kuya.
While waiting for Kuya, my gaze went to the two people who entered the boutiques. Jadiel and the girl I see a while ago. Where's Ella now?
I shrugged, I don't care if he is flirting with other girls. If I were Ella, I'll cage Jadiel.
"Let's go! " Kuya said. I looked at Jadiel and to my shock, he is looking at me intently. I bite my lower lip,  I need to stop this feeling when every time our eyes met my heart beats fast.
I'm mad at him! That was what I felt! I reminded myself.
