In the end, I went to the store to buy everything that he's asking me to buy. Wow! Just wow! This list is lengthy! It'll fill up my cart! I started collecting all of the stuff I needed to buy. It's just these that's in the list anyways:
1 cartolina white
1 cartolina blue
1 cartolina green
2 manila paper
3 pentelpen blue
3 pentelpen red
5 scotch tape
1 box of pencil
1 box of hbw pen
2 paint brush
1 acrylic paint blue
1 acrylic paint green
1 acrylic paint red
500 pcs bond paper
1 plastic of colored paper
1 plastic of glossy paper
5 pair of scissors
5 erasers
5 rulers
... and the list goes on. Seriously. Even the people behind me at the counter are starting to complain because of how long and how many stuff I'm buying.
"That'll be 3,893.50 pesos ma'am."
I was dumbfounded when I heard the price so I looked at the counter screen to see if the price was right.
"Wow. It became that much.Wait..."
I grabbed my wallet from my pocket and looked inside of it.
"Oh no."
"Ma'am, is there a problem?"
Yeah, a big one. That monster called Cross forgot to give me money to pay with! Ugh! And I don't even have that kind of money! Waaa! What should I do?
"Umm... excuse me, can I return all of them? I don't have money to pay with."
"What, ma'am?! Stop joking around! A lot of time was wasted from scanning all of your items. There's even a lot of irritated people behind you because of how many items you were buying, and you're not paying for them? That's just not right. It's either you pay for all of these or I'll call a guard."
"W-Wait! Don't! Wait a second..."
Shit, I don't know what I should do.
"Can I explain myself first?"
"Are you paying for them or not?"
"I really don't have any money to pay with, look at my wallet, I only have 20 pesos."
But the cashier girl didn't listen to me and called a guard.
"Guard! Guard!"
"Wait! P-Please dont! Please..."
I nearly started crying from begging her to stop, I don't know what to do. Everyone in the store was looking at me, I hope that the ground splits apart from how embarrassing I'm feeling right now.
"How much?"
"Y-Yes?"
"I said, how much."
"A-Ah! 3,893.50 pesos!"
"Please add this," He then gave her a book
"Ah, yes sir." She quickly scanned it.
"4,043.50 pesos please."
He grabbed his wallet and gave her the payment. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
"B-But..."
"I hope you still remember me,"
He said while reaching for his change.
"Let's go, I'll help you carry your stuff."
He grabbed the bags with my purchases while I was left standing there.
"What are you waiting for?"
"H-huh? C-Coming."
I went to him and grabbed the other bags while I was still confused. I don't know where we're going but I just followed him quietly. I'm still trying to figure out what just happened because it was very quick and very messy.
"Ayy!" I hit him with my head back when he suddenly stopped.
"Were you stalking me?" he looked at me.
"Ha? Stalking?"
"Yup, because I always see you. The other day it was the soccer field, now it's the store. You're a stalker, aren't you?"
"Eh?" I turned red from what he said "I'm not stalking you!"
"Okay, if you're shy to admit that you're stalking me, let's just call it following me."
"What?! I really don't! Us meeting was only a coincidence! Don't assume!"
He suddenly laughed and ruffled my hair.
"I'm just kidding. You can't take a joke. Forget about what happened earlier, you look too unhappy. Not a lot of people saw it anyway."
"Even so, it was very embarrassing. The cashier even shouted at me and everyone in the queue were looking at me. Also, thank you for paying those, I promise I'll pay you tomorrow."
"It's okay, you can pay me whenever you want or with whatever you want."
He suddenly leaned forward to my face. Wait, don't come near my face Chad, you'll see my pimples. Eeek! But waaa, his eyes are melting me.
"You can even pay with your body."
"EH?!"
My eyes widened as I pushed him away, he continued laughing while moving back.
"I knew you were going to push me again! Hahaha!"
"You're not funny!" I said while annoyed.
He went close to me a tapped my shoulder and said "I'm just kidding!" while still laughing
I irritatingly removed his hands from my shoulders and grabbed the bags from him.
"You're a real joker. I'm going, thank you for helping me pay. Don't worry, I'll pay for all of them tomorrow."
I turned around and started carrying all the bags.
"Hey, I'm just joking. Man, you're annoyed already? Wait, don't go yet."
He tried to grab the bags from my hand but I didn't give it to him
"Because your jokes aren't funny and not just that, this wasn't the first time you did it to me."
"Ah, that night at the ice cream parlor? Have you still not forgotten about it? It was just a joke... You're too sensitive. Get used to me already, I'm just like this whenever I fool around. Don't leave anymore."
He's still trying to grab the bags from me.
"I'm leaving so let go of the bags. I don't appreciate your jokes and go find someone else if you want to fool around. You can't make fun of me just because you're handsome."
I know that he's only making fun of me because I'm ugly anyway. Maybe because everyone at his school and surroundings are all beautiful and handsome. That's why he's not used to seeing ugly people and enjoy it whenever he makes fun of me with his jokes. But what I hate the most is when someone laughs and toys with me.
"It's not like that! I'm sorry Pepperspray, please don't leave yet. I'm alone and bored here at the mall."
He's still trying to get the bags off my hand
"Do not call me Pepperspray!" We look like idiots fighting over bags. "Let go of the bags"
"But Pepperspray is cuter than Eya."
I was suddenly surprised when he said my name, does that mean he still remembers my name? Argh, I'm feeling flustered even if I shouldn't be. Calm down Eya.
"I don't care, I said let go of the bags! I'm leaving!"
In my surprise, he really let go of the bags and placed her hands behind his head.
"Okay, whatever, babye!"
He then turned around from me and started walking. He actually left me. I tried going outside the mall while carrying all the bags but... it's too heavy. It's hard to walk, can I even reach the exit of the mall? I'm carrying four really heavy bags! But I need to keep on going to get out alive. I'll just pretend that I'm doing body building and these are barbels. Go Eya, you can do it!
After 30 seconds... Ajuju, I can't do it anymore, they're too heavy.
"I told you I'll carry them."
I got surprised when someone came close to me and grabbed two of the bags that I was carrying.
"You don't even have any muscles, Pepperspray."
I looked up to him because he's taller than me and became dazed from his handsome face that was smiling.
"Is there something on my face or am I just that handsome?"
I snap out, "This arrogant guy. Give it back, I can carry them."
"You're the one who's arrogant, what you mean you can? You look like you're about to start crawling on the ground earlier because you couldn't carry all of these bags."
I gave up. "Fine."
If only I wasn't
ugly, I might have already started flirting with Chad or maybe he's
flirting with me because he's very insistent. But I know that he's just a
kind person or super friendly so he's helping me even if my face is in
the other side of the spectrum from his. I'm ugly, he's attractive, it's
like he's heaven and I'm earth, he's water and I'm mud, he's cake I'm
bread *and the lists of high & lows follow*.
"I'll drop you off to your place."
"It's okay, even if it's just at the taxi stop."
He can't drive me back to Cross's house because he might discover that I'm working there. I don't want anyone to know that, it's a good thing that Cross didn't announce that I was his personal maid or else I might have gotten in trouble with his crazy fans at school
"Is that so, alright."
He gave me a lift until the taxi stop, he took the book that he brought and put all the bags inside the taxi and said.
"Okay, go in."
But I looked at him before riding the taxi and stretched out my hands to him.
"Let me borrow some money for the fare."
I know, I'm being shameless right now but it's true that I don't have anything to pay for the taxi ride. I only have twenty pesos. I'll be collecting money from Cross from all of the expenses here since he's the one who asked me to do this. It looked like Chad was surprised from what I did, but he just laughed and grabbed his wallet from his pocket...
"I told you I'll just give you a ride. See? You're in even more debt now."
I feel like my face is going red from embarrassment, I don't know, I'm really feeling ashamed from all the debt I have from him today so I was looking away while my hand was still reaching out to him.
"Thank you but I prefer taxis, just give me the money already. I really need to go home. I'll pay you tomorrow."
"Here."
He gave the money but not to my hand but to the driver then went back to me and ruffled my hair.
"You have a lot of debt to me so be careful, okay?"
After that, he turned around and left. I was left standing there while holding my head until I went inside the taxi. Pwew! Like, what was that? Dug dug dug, calm down, my heart!
At the MONSTER'S house...
"Here, all the stuff you asked me to buy."
I went straight inside his room and plopped down all the bags on the carpeted floor. He's just sitting in front of his computer so he turned his chair around to face me, he even had his arms and legs crossed.
"Do you know how to knock?"
"Do you know how many things you asked me to buy?" I asked him.
"Do you know how to respect your master?"
"Do you know how much all of that costs?!" I didn't give in to him
"Do you know that you're getting on my nerves?!"
"Do you know that all of those costs 4 thousand plus and you did not give me even a cent?!"
"Do you know that you shouldn't be talking like that to you master or I'll kick you out of the house?!"
"Do you know that you can't do that because only your father can fire me?!"
"GET OUT!"
"Yeah right!"
I walked out of the room and slammed the door but opened it again afterwards.
"I forgot! You owe me 3,893 pesos!"
I closed the door again but I remembered something again so I opened the door once more.
"What now?!" he irritatingly shouted
"And 50 cents!"
Dear Diary,
Why do I always cross paths with Chad Jimenez? Maybe we're soulmates? Just kidding! But why is he so handsome and so nice? I can't stop feeling flustered! My heart can't stay still whenever he's there, ayyy so corny.
- Eya
P.S. I hope Cross Sandford steps on poop, he's so annoying.
