Chapter 2

At four-thirty in the morning. I already woke up. My whole body is so alive like I want to have a long run outside but of course, I can't coz my parents didn't like me to do a stroll alone especially at dawn or late at night. So every time I wake up early. I just scratch my eyes and smile beautifully. Do some jumping and stretching.

"Good morning gorgeous Bamby.." I whispered while yawning a little bit before entering the cold bathroom every morning.

Geez. Why I wake up this so early?. This is so early girl.

Before completely reaching the bathroom. I was stunned at the back door. Accidentally saw the chart that just hanging beside the door. It's already August 6, 2019. Days run so fast. It seems like it was just a summer break. I can't believe that this is our first day at school today. I kicked the door without thinking and damn! My foot hurts!!

"Bamby!.." I suddenly heard my brother Lance's irritating voice whenever he's disturbed. He's always been like that.

Oh my goodness! You should run now Bamby!

I took my bath, not as usual. Almost half an hour or a whole is normal to me. But not this time. I knew that minutes from now. My brothers will curse my name when they see me. I change my clothes to my uniform then put on my shoes. I'm not in a hurry. It's just that, I don't want to get late today. It's my first day and I don't want to ruin it. Of course. Take note of seeing my crush. Geez! This thought excites me.

Am I going crazy?. Oh well! I am crazily obsessed with the person I desire. I'll see him starting today. Yippie!

Crush. I guess. We all have a crush. Grade school?. I know you do? Stop pretending. You had one?. And exactly you remembered him or her right? This is where it all started. Either junior high or senior high?. Maybe you do?. That's maybe a yes! Give this a nod. Or maybe you had a special one in your mind but you did never let them know that you had a crush on them That's why most of it, it was all a secret. A secret that you and your best friends just know. But for me. It's different. I have a huge crush on someone and yet my family members especially my two brothers knew who he is.

"Hey, Bamby! Hurry up there!." Lance, my brother again shouted at me. The reason behind him making me rush is that he doesn't want to be scolded at dawn. Guess what?. It's because of me. Lol! Our both parents always reminded him that he shouldn't leave off me anywhere. Whether it's at school or anywhere. Of course not. What kind of brother he is if he is so careless about me?. He'll get what he deserves from Dad if he does.

I rushed running downstairs when I unexpectedly hit the wall. Damn wall! That's how amazing I am. Crazy! That's me. Bamby Eugenio. 13 years of age. Living with my both parents and two annoying brothers.

"What took you so long?.." This came from no other than my irritating brother Lance. He gave me a scary death glare. I just shrugged my shoulders at him then smiled at everyone. I saw Dad sat down at the left end of the table. Mom is on his right while our firstborn Mark is on his left alongside my annoying brother Lance. Everything's set. I'm the only one who doesn't.

"Good morning Dad." I gave him a sweet kiss.

"Good morning Mom.." I greeted her and gave her a sweet kiss and a gentle hug. She hugged me back and giggles. They just kiss me back without saying any word. That's how they greet when everything is set on the table. I moved to my brothers and kiss them too but this particular one stopped me.

"Big bro!?." I laughed at my complaint. I stood firmly while making a heavy sound on the floor. Pretending I'm this mad.

He just smirked and ignored my actions. He is checking now on his phone like I'm not that interesting. I looked at my older brother on his side. Asking for his opinion on making our brother annoy continuously. I laugh out loud in my mind! I can't control myself anymore that's why I need to bite my lower lip just to hide from laughing. Also, my brother Mark gave me his sign to do what should I do. That's the time I moved closer to him and lean on the right side of his face.

"Don't ruin my face will you?.." my lips are not yet on his bare cheeks but he suddenly pushed me away from him. He frowns.

Tsk! He's like a zombie. That's too early for that bro! What's up morning bear! So gay huh!

I just rolled my eyes behind his back while heading back to my chair. My both parents just giggled at us with my older brother Mark. They knew we are like this. Loves annoying each other. He is so nitpicky. Like duh! Is he even straight or half-breed?. Crazy ass. I don't know. Whatever it is. He acts like a gay. Err!.

"Are you ready now Bamby?.." Mom asked.

"I'm ready Mom." Always. I need to drop the 'always' thingy it's because I know they'll poke fun at me afterward. Instead, I just answered Mom wholeheartedly with a half-smile because my mouth is full.

"You still asked Mom?. Even on vacation, she wants to enter school because of her crush.."



"It's not!?.." I looked at him. Grinning.

"What?.." his signature smirk is making me an act of sweet revenge.

Hmmm.

"I don't have a crush.."



"Are you kidding?.." they all declared this in chorus. Here they are again. Unendingly teasing me. From the very beginning. They knew I had a crush but they didn't know who he is. Dad said that it's okay. It is normal to have a crush on someone but I must know what limitation is. That's my Daddy. He's always on my side but he already reminded me that I'm not yet allowed to have a boyfriend at my age. I know that. That's why I just look at first... from afar. For now. I'm hoping for a better tomorrow.
