Jay-jay's POV
I'm sexy----charot!
As I looked at myself in the mirror, it just sunk into my brain that I was gaining weight.
I thought what Ci-N told me before was just a joke. I was wearing the one I got at the Christmas party. The Ms. Claus costume that was clearly hanging on the fabric.
"Navel sticking out." I whispered and fiddled with my navel while smelling it. Yack!!
I turned around slightly to look at my back. The skirt was too short. I put on my hat and took out my cellphone.
Batman's turn!
"Here you go Keifer..." I said and started taking pictures of myself.
Post! Please! This is awesome! SuperModel! Sexy back! Please! Please!
"Okay, this is..." I whispered and started choosing a picture to send to the King of Snakes.
I was afraid that those idiots would find out that I was the one who gave him the boxers, so I made a fool of myself. I just don't want this picture to go out in public, I'll skin that guy alive. I chose two pictures. One facing forward with my arms crossed and the other slightly turned away.
I hesitated before pressing send. I put down my phone and to my surprise the door to my room suddenly opened.
I saw Brother Angelo's reaction of surprise and anger when he saw what I was wearing.
"What the... What is that?! Why are you wearing that?!" He asked me angrily.
"W-what... Y-that... I just measured..." I blurted out as if he didn't believe me.
His gaze dropped to my cellphone that was lying on the bed. Suddenly, it rang. Dead!
I rushed to get my phone. Kuya almost tripped over it, but I beat him to it.
"What's that?! Do you have..." Suddenly, his eyes widened and it seemed like something was playing in his mind. "...Are you selling your body?!" Here he is!!
"Hey! No! You're so serious! Selling right now?!"
"Why are you wearing that and you don't want to show me your phone?!"
"Well... you're so OA!" He looked at me from head to toe. Honestly, I was already cold in this clothing.
"Jay-jay! I'm really telling you!" He threatened me while pointing at me. "...It's your turn!"
I nodded. "I just measured it..."
Brother Kuya just held his hand. He took a deep breath and looked at me again, but his eyebrows were still raised.
"Get dressed... We'll pick up Grandma at the Terminal." He said and walked out of my room.
Closing the door, I immediately looked at who had messaged me. Two messages, both from the King of Snakes.
From: King Ulupong
Message: 'Sexy Jay-jay... 😎😘'
Huh?! This animal is really cute! I also looked at the next
message.
From: King Ulupong
Message: (Picture attached)
'Souvenir... 😎😏'
It's really shameless! A picture of him wearing the boxers I gave him. He even posed it like an underwear model.
But he's so sexy----my! My Sexy! Awesome!
Whatever keeps coming to my mind. It's the fault of this dress. I immediately got dressed and went straight to the living room where Brother Angelo was waiting for me.
"We're leaving, Ma!" Brother said goodbye to Auntie.
Brother walked closer to his car. I followed and got in. I was in the seat next to the driver, Brother.
"You Jay-jay! What kind of nonsense are you doing!" He lectured me. This is the beginning!
"..Don't come to me and tell me you're pregnant! I'll definitely hit you!"
"Brother! No way!" I replied, looking angry.
"You'll answer! If I hit you, I'll hit you!" He threatened while raising his fist to my head.
This is even worse. Traffic! That's it... I'm going to give him a long lecture. I need to prepare myself. Why did Grandma just leave today?
"Tell me... Do you have a boyfriend?" he asked seriously.
I shook my head. "W-nothing..."
"What's wrong with you and Keifer?"
I looked at him. Keifer really?
"No... Nothing, nothing." I almost whispered.
"But you like him?"
W-what?!
"No, no!"
"You sound defensive..."
I fell silent and bit my lower lip. I couldn't figure out what Kuya wanted to say. We arrived at the terminal and even though there were a lot of cars, he still managed to find a parking space. Before opening the door to get off, Kuya spoke first.
"If you're going to have a boyfriend... Keifer, don't. It's different..."
I stopped. What did he mean by that? What Keifer, don't? I don't plan on having a boyfriend, why is he telling me this? Kuya got off so I did the same. There were so many people, I felt that we would have a hard time finding Grandma.
"Jay... Look for Grandma in the waiting area. I'll check on the new arrivals there." Kuya ordered.
I immediately went to the waiting area. Even though there were many people, it was very hot and hassle. I didn't fail in finding her because of the loud laughter of Grandma while chatting with.... Ci-N?
What's up here?! I approached Grandma and immediately waved at her.
"Hi Jay!" Ci-N greeted me.
I looked at her as if asking 'why are you here?'.
"You've been waiting so long... It's a good thing your friend came to join me." Grandma said.
"It's a good thing I saw him right away." Ci-N said with a smile.
Grandma stood up and was about to get her bag but I beat her to it. "I'll go, La." I said and Grandma nodded at me.
We started walking out of the waiting area. Lola and Ci-N were ahead of me. I couldn't help but think. I didn't understand why he was here and how he met Lola. We arrived at my Brother's tea but he still wasn't there. I immediately took out my phone and texted him. While waiting, the two of them continued to chat.
"...really? It's funny that Jay-jay has a friend like you." Lola said and kept squeezing Ci's cheek. This one was always so cute.
"I'm embarrassed..." Ci said softly.
I just winced at this kid's behavior. I mean, I know he's been like that before but it's weird.
"Maybe you're Jay-jay's boyfriend?" Lola asked, surprising me.
"Hahaha... No." Ci replied with a laugh.
Why do I feel like I'm saying something stupid?
"...His boyfriend's name is Keifer. Hahaha----aaagghhh!
Jay!" He shouted when I suddenly pulled his ear. Did you mention the King's name to Lola and introduced him as my boyfriend? Oh my! Suddenly Grandma slapped my hand, causing me to let go.
"La! It hurts!" I complained.
"The kid is hurting you!" She lectured me. Langya! She didn't care if I was hurt by what she did. But when Ci was all she cared about.
The truth is! Who's Grandson here?! Grandma rubbed the little boy's ear. This one was so pitiful. I felt like stepping on him now. Big Brother arrived and immediately came over to us. He was a bit surprised to see Ci. I'm not sure if he knew this little boy was my classmate.
"Grandmother..." Big Brother greeted me with a wave of his hand.
"Hi Big Brother!"...Ci-N greeted me? Kuya still nodded!
Kuya looked at her, then looked at me as if to say 'do you know this?'.
"My classmate... Ci-N Peralta." I introduced myself.
Big Brother gave me an 'ahh' reaction. Maybe he got whose child he was in front of. Kuya opened the car door. I went straight to the back to put Grandma's bag in the compartment.
I immediately grabbed Ci-N and head-locked him.
"How did you meet Grandma and how did you know that we were going to pick her up?!" I asked.
"A-aray! Jay!"
I let go of him but I was still holding him by the collar. I glared at him too.
"W-on your cellphone... I-I saw it in the pictures." She replied.
That made me think. Yes, I was the one who showed him that time. But I immediately looked back at him.
"How did you know that he was here and that we were going to pick him up?"
"W-you said that before you got drunk..."
I let go of her immediately. Damn it! I forgot that we were talking before I got drunk. But I'm not done yet.
"Why are you here?"
"I can't do anything for us----"
"Jay! Are you fighting with him?!" Grandma interrupted our conversation.
I scratched my head. "H-no..."
"Come on! Let's go!" She said to us.
I was surprised when I closed the compartment when Ci suddenly got in the backseat next to Grandma.
Oh! Did someone greet her?!
My seat was in the passenger seat next to Kuya again. Kuya and I kept exchanging glances. We were stuck in traffic again. Kuya and I were both silent but Ci-N and Grandma kept talking.
"What's Jay-jay's boyfriend's name again?" Grandma asked
Ci, which made me stop.
My gaze shifted to Kuya, who slowly turned his head to look at me. I quickly shook my head at him to say 'that's not true'.
"Keifer po... Mark Keifer Watson po." Ci-N answered happily.
Kuya's eyebrows furrowed. He quickly grabbed my ear. I couldn't move from my spot.
"Nothing! Nothing! You're done!" Kuya said angrily.
"N-no... Ouch! Kuya! N-that's not true!" I shouted while trying to remove his hand from my ear.
"Get ready for me when we get home!" He shouted at me.
Get ready for me, this Ci-N!
