"How are you?" "Fuck you!" He laughed after I scolded him. I shook my head. "Tita scolded you last night, isn't she?" he teased and wiggled his eyebrows as he followed me walking down the hallway of the university. "Because you're such a pain in my ass. You always wanted to be the best." I hissed bitterly. I could see the grin on his face slowly fading. He averted his gaze to our way.  I hate him! I hate him for being my cousin! "Haven't you had breakfast yet? Let's eat. My treat. Let's go to the cafeteria." he offered. I took a glance at him and keep my both hands on my pant's pocket. He never changes. I know this is how he says sorry since we were little up until now. "Okay." I agreed and we went to the cafeteria together. *  *  *  * "Carbonara with one p

We are now sitting in the living room. I was next to Verna while I was opposite Tatay Mario and his sons. The others sitting on the floor.They just stared at me while Verna just bowed her head. Looks like she was embarrassed about what's happening right now.I feel like I was going to melt like ice cream the way how Tatay Mario glared at me. I gulp. It losing me the courage to speak even more. I feel like everything I am going to say should be favoured by them all.I glanced at Miggy's room when the door opened. My monkey cousin busy stretching his arms and yawning. When they saw us sitting in the living room, he spoke."Good morning! What's happening in here, guys? What's up?" he innocently asked while there's a smile on his face. Tatay Mario and his sons just stared in my cousin's direction. Didn't utter any word.Miggy's smile on his face fades away. He shifted his gaze in my direction

 The next morning."Cousin, can you go with Verna for a walk at the river?" asking a favour of Miggy who is now chopping wood here in the yard.I looked at him in disbelief."Me?" I fantastically asked while pointing at myself.Miggy stopped chopping the wood and wiped his sweat with the clothes he had taken off. I winced at what I saw.This man is gross."The brothers are in the rice field right now. They helping Tatay Mario on the farm," he explained and sat down on a wooden chair. I sat next to him."And so?""Come with her." he sparingly answered without even looking at me.I thought for a moment about his favour then suddenly, I smiled widely. Maybe, there's no one else in the river, right?"Okay." I agreed while there's a devilish smile on my face.My cousin looked at me critically. To my surprise, he glared at me."Don't do anything stupid. That's Manang Leti only daughter."

After the wedding, Mommy and I went home to Manila. Not only me, my mother and my cousins, also include Verna, Manang Leti, Tatay Mario as well as ten male siblings are coming with us.Mommy took them on vacation in our home which made me gasped in irritation. I thought I would be able to breathe lightly and move freely when I got home in Manila but...what a stroke of bad luck.Time passes by quickly. They were staying here at home for almost a month now. Mommy was so happy and always entertained by the family. She said it is refreshing to see another person in our house.She's genuinely happy to see again her boy best friend. She was even more pleased with the thought that his best friend's daughter was got married to me. Like what the hell?Now, it's time to say goodbye to Verna's family. They are now going back to the province. Tatay Mario can't let his farm be unattended and no one would take care of it if he wasn't there. My mother gave them an aerop

Verna's POVHere I am. Walking alone. I don't have a cellphone to contact Miggy. I don't have any money left because we had to share it earlier for our group project. I thought Alexander and I would go home together.I was crossing down the road when suddenly rain."Unlucky me..." I whispered to myself. I ran and looked for shelter. I only see a shelter for about a long distance. I had no choice. I kept running until I was sheltered in there.Maybe I'll before I walk again after the rain.I looked up in the sky and witnessed how dark the sky was. Add the heavyweight of the pouring rain.Pip!!! Pip!!!"What the fudge?!!!" I exclaimed in shock then quickly grabbed my chest. As if I was going to have a heart attack.I looked at the driver of the car who's the culprit on why I felt this way.I was all ready to throw many words but stopped when the car window get down. I saw Miggy's smiling face."Hop in," he said and smiled. He even got
