Chapter#2 Her Responsibilities (English Translated)
[Veera's P.O.V]
I was overwhelmed by the many pats on my cheek, at the same time the pat on my thigh as well. I
looked at mama who was combing and dressed.
"Veera. Before you go to school, feed your sister and let her bathe. Leave toys in their sped school.
Don't leave her crying when you leave their school. Make sure the house is locked before you leave.
Last night there was a robbery on the other block so take care of the house. Eat breakfast and take a
bath. It's late. You still have school. You take care of your sister. All right, bye Mama is leaving. I'm late
for the store. " Mama said directly while kissing my cheek and forehead, while she was wearing
sandals and her bag.
"Mama. The payment for Vita's school is needed later. It's in her assignment notebook. Then the
payment for my school ---" mama didn't finish me speaking because she immediately rode the cab that
she had got.
"Darling Veera, just tell Vita's school that her tuition is in promisory note first. Mama's salary will be
given for the second week. I'll just make a way for you. All right, baby. It's already seven o'clock." When
she said that, at the same time the cab she was riding was about to start.
What was that!? Mama didn't left me even a dime. Goshh
I just scratched my head while going back inside the house.
Even before I could enter the door of our house, my phone vibrated many times.
4messages from my bestfriend who is 3blocks away from our house.
There is an unexpected text from another person. It is Adam's text. My rich kid partner in thesis.
'Where are you sis? The class has started. '
'Sis, Sir will start after 10mins'
'Sis are you still at Vita's school?'
'Sis hurry up. I asked my dad if he had time to passby at Vita's school.'
'Veera. I just did the thesis alone. Your making me go nuts in the thesis, you kept on pulling me down.
You have not done RRL yet. Then you have not yet been able to produce questionairres. Don't use our
title. I thought of that Title. Think of yours. Bye.'
"Ahhhhh fck that." I was annoyed when I threw my phone on the bed and took a shower immediately.
5 minutes is my fastest bathe. I no longer have time to eat breakfast.
"Vita. Vita. Wake Up. It's getting late. Let's take a bath soon." I woke my special child sister while
smiling.
Even though Vita is like this, I really love my sister. It's hard but I can do it.
"Ah-taeh Iraaab- sahmuh ginniiepp ko"
'Ate Veera I have a bad dream'
Crying she hugged me.
"Shh calm down. It's just a dream okk. Vita is going to take a bath."
It is difficult to bathe Vita because she does not like water. So we will still chase. Vita once lost her
head because she slipped when I bathed her. Now before Vita takes a bath I always tie her hand so
she can't pull me over and run. I don't hurt her it's for her safety because she's the one who gets hurt
every time she does something weird. And I did not restrict her handcuffs because I knew she would be
hurt.
"Vita no! It hurts!" I said annoyed because the curtain rod fell on my head because she pulled.
At the same time as the curtain rod fell, the toilet cover shut, which unfortunately my other hand was
placed.
"Awwww" I kissed my hand. I looked up and I remembered it came from the side of the bowl. I was
almost angry but I ignored it. I should hurry Vita.
I quickly covered and rinsed Vita's body. Shampoo the hair and apply conditioner while brushing. The
last time I poured water on Vita while I was rinsing her I heard someone knocking on our door.
"JUST A MOMENT. VITA IS STILL BATHING." I shouted for the knocker to stop but it continued to
knock recklessly. As if the knocks wants to break on our door with whoever knocks. Gigel.
"Vita, come and sit here. Eat while your sister dresses you." I said calmly to Vita.
"What is it?"
My words were cut short when our landlady suddenly entered.
"ABA ABA VERA. How many months have you not been able to pay. When will you and mother want to
pay? Do you want me to let new tenants rent here that pays at the being said dates? YOU HAVE TO
PAY NOW. Because if you can not pay now I will rent this place to someone who wants to rent because
they know how to pay. " Our landlady said straightforwardly and irritably.
I can't even give her a look because I'm busy feeding Vita and dressing her, her socks and shoes.
"Ah, was that it Aling Maneng? Later in the afternoon someone will pay me for one of the kids I teach. I
will pay our rent for two months. Okay? My sister is going to school already." I said as I combed Vita's
hair and carried her bag.
Aling Maneng came out the door at the same time when she saw Vita and I also coming out.
"What a Kid! Hey Vera! Are you really leaving like that ?!" Aling Maneng shouted.
That's why I looked at Vita who was already wearing a uniform and looked good because of the
ponytail and due to the powder and the fresh look of her face.
'Ohmyghashhh. My sister looks good and I am the one who looks like newly woken up kid even after
taking bathe earlier. I haven't dressed yet because I only wear undergarments and underwear. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
I was covered all over my body. Gosh the number of young high school students who looked at me and
then obviously laughed at me.
"Ahhhhhh. Vita just stay there first. Ateee will just get dressed .--- Which Maneng please take a look at
Vitaaaa for a moment." I said confused and panicking.
I ran to our house too fast then went straight to my room and searched for my uniform.
"Gosh It is really today that I no longer have newly washed uniform T ^ T" Nochoice so I took my
uniform which was a bit smaller than mine.
This was my uniform last year. This uniform of mine is shorter and tighter. I don't want to look obscene
but I have no choice but to go to school. Vita and I are late.
Aling Maneng looked at me with disbelief in her eyes when I took Vita from her.
"Ahhhh This Child REALLY!!! The pity on this very beautiful kid who happen that... a big responsibility
was immediately taken and carried. She became the mother of her sister." Aling Maneng is saying
something but Vita and I are far away for me to hear that.
---
When Vita arrives at school, their flagceremony will begin, so I immediately took her to her queue and
leaned over where she could still see me.
"Oh hija. Did you sent Vita again? It looks like your mom is busy that you always sent your sister."
Vita's friend's mother greeted me.
"Absolutely Yes. Mama is a bit busy. Since then ..." I could not continue what I was about to say
because I would be filled with anger like this again.
"Infact ... there are only three of you ..." she said. I did not let her finish the speech because I
immediately left Vita with her. I said I was too late for class. I just sent a message to Vita's teacher
about what mama said earlier.
"I'M SO SO LATE AGAINNNNNN. KUYA GUARD!!!! DON'T CLOSE THE GATEEEEE YETTTTTTTT
OMAYGHASHHH." I shouted at our school guard. I was able to close and befriend the guards because
I needed it for emergency cases, but in some cases they are often unfair because they are very honest
in their work.
"Hurry up Veeraaaa. You should have entered the gate before the end of 10seconds." He hand signed
at me.

My phone vibrates.
'Sis, Sir said he will drop you ... If He you won't attend his classes today...'
I ran faster when I read my bestfriend's text. I almost seemed to be out of breath because I was out of
breath to just face Sir.
"SIRRRR T ^ T pleaseee there's just something urgent that happened so I didn't reach your class. I'm
really sorry." I cried once on my knees then pulled on the hem of his uniform.
"MS EUGENIO CAN YOU PLEASE DO NOT PULL MY UNIFORM. Stay calm. I was so considerate to
you for almost everyday of my class. I know it's always family reasons but to think that I only see you
MS EUGENIO like a bluemoon. I only see you in my class once in a while. How come that I will give
you a grade that, Just in the attendance alone your grade is totally pulled to the failing grade?! You're a
great student MS EUGENIO but I'm sorry I can't tolerate it anymore. It's the end of me being
considerate in your actions. If I don't see you in my class on Monday, I will drop you in instance.
Arraseo !? ' My Science teacher said emphatically.
'Stop crying sis. :( ' My bestfriend said while surpressing a cry.
I looked at her at the same time wiping away my tears and the cold that would have dripped.
"Don't cry about that Sis. You thought I was going to stop studying. That was just a subject. Hahaha
just lend me your notes. I'm going to review." I said while I comfort EunYeo.
"We have nothing to cry about. We must be happy forever. Don't let it spoil this beautiful day."
I added and stood up as we entered our classroom.
----
"The surprise quizzes are worsttt. That's why I hate surprises sis e HAHAHAHA. Anyways do you want
me to bring you to Lye Seo? Do you have a teach session to her today?" Eun Yeo said to me in a hug.
I just gasped. Exhausting day. My brain is completely melted.
At this time, the other students went their way to the Mall or to the T ^ T Arcade.
"Sis. Tell me Was I cursed? Why do I look like the one who made the world? I'm just a mere Korean
SeniorHigh Student I have no power to defeat this curse eotteoke!" I cried when I got in her car.
EunYeo is capable because of her parents' business. Simple Publishing House is their business and
popular with students and authors who self-publish their works.
Eun Yeo is my bestfriend since Preschool. When we moved here to Korea she was my first friend.
Despite knowing that the language I use is different then, since we are from the Philippines where
Mama and Papa met. My parents are both Korean although Papa is a Filipino Citizen and has changed
his name since he lived there for 15 years before meeting mama so papa is a Filipino. Sadly, he
adapted even the bad habits of other Filipinos. Dad is a gambler. It was so much when mama decided
(when I was 12 years old and Vita was only 2 years old) that they would separate.
Well that divorced did affect me. I adjust badly because I'm Papa's girl. So I'm also very angry with
papa now. I understood mama why she made that decision.
This Veera Eugenio Indeedd. Even in your eyes I'm Just an 18 year old , I can also proudly tell the
world that I'm one of the breadwinners of the family ?????
"Should I still bring you inside Sis?" EunYeo touched me so I was surprised.
"Oh. It's here that I didn't realize." I said laughing
Eunyeo just smiled at me and then said goodbye and started her car.
"Mommyyyyy! Unnie Veera is here alreadyyyyyy." Lye Seo said while hugging me.
"How was your school today My Seoseo?" I knelt down and messed up LyeSeo's hair then pinched her
cheek lightly.
"Ack stop It can you. I don't like you being here. You stink." LyeSeo's twin, LyePong said.
"Omo. Who is this little boy that is so yeopo? Omo. LyePong how was your day ????? Is Noona Veera
really stinky? Am I stinky? Smell me smell me" I said I just laughed when I saw LyePong ran away from
me.
That kid really ? is always jealous of LyeSeo.
These children I once saw in a library doing their assignment, at their case back then they were fighting
over the right answer so I approached. I taught them and they said if I was a teacher. I said no but I
could teach people at their age. They even said that I was good because they thought I was a teacher
and that I was even better than their teachers because they understood what I was teaching. After that
day I went to the library every day and I also did not expect that they would wait at the library every day
until their mother saw me teaching them in the library. Since then, the two of them have been my
student in tutorial sessions.
"Oh hi Veera. You look so tired. You can still teach them? Their exams are coming up and your
quarterly is also close is it fine with you?" Their mommy said they let me sit at their diner table.
"I'm okay Tita. It's just a bit stressful too." I laughed with my hand against mine.
"This oh. Appetizer before you teach. Have these snacks first." Their mommy said.
Their maids served me 3 classes of slices of cake and different types of my favorite lecheflan made by
their mommy.
"The amount of it, aunt, I will never run out. It's embarrassing" I said because I was overwhelmed by
their foods tha was offered to me.
"That is my token of appreciation to you for being kind to my children and for teaching them well."
Smiling, Tita told me
I am so thankful because they are the ones I have been teaching. They are kind children. Their parents
are also kind because they know when I have a problem, especially when it is a financial problem.
They cost me more than they should pay for the fee for teaching their twins.
My fee every time I teach is 90000won per month or Php 3800 ($ 78). They give me almost 100000won
or Php4000 ($ 88) per month. It's different when they give me another allowance.
Our review sessions with the twins today were easy. And their mommy also caught up with me for this
month.
"Thank you very much Auntie. Thank you very much aunty" I hugged aunty very tightly.
"Just take it as my gratefulness for you" she said and patted my back as she hugged me.
My phone vibrated so I separated from aunt and I also said that I needed to go home.
Then I just read the texts to me when I got out of the twins' house.
From: Vita's Advicer
'Ms Veera. Can you pick up Vita? ' 1:00 pm
'Ms. Veera. Vita, you need to pick her up.' 2:00 pm
'Ms Veera, your mother would not answer if she would not also pick up Vita' 3:00 pm
'Ms Veera. There has an emergency at home so I need to leave' 4:00 pm
'Ms. Veera, I just left Vita at the Guard House of your place.' 5:00 pm
I looked at my watch. Shocks. Its already 8:00 pm Vita has been waiting at the Guard House for almost
a few hours.
I quickly hailed a taxi and saw that Vita was not at the Guard House.
"Brother, where is Vita? I thought, her Teacher left her here?" I asked confused.
"Yes, she was just here before. I just bought ice cream for a while because she said she wanted it."
The guard said confused as well.
I went at every sites in our place and call for her name.
"Vita! Vitaaa! Viiitaaaa where are you ???" I shouted.
"Uyy Veera you are sexy now." The male junior highschools students said to me. They're obviously
drank.
"You stink away. You are doing nothing in your life as well as studying. Psh." Disgusted I said.
One of them grabbed me by the shoulder and slid his finger from my shoulder to my hand and then
kissed me on the hand.
"YOU PERVERTED JERK!" I was very sick then I kicked him.
The other one was about to punch me but I quickly hit him with my bag and then trampled on him to get
him out of balance.
Someone pulled my hair so I kicked him and he refused to let go of my hair.
"Busets, after all Drinks should be put in the head. Vita where are you baaa kasiii !?"
Concerned I shouted while still looking for her
I was tired so I headed to the bench near the playground first.
Where is Vita? She even walked away when her identification bracelette was broken. Hayst Vita.
'Our favorite letche flan, I kept one for you' I whispered in the air.
I heard a commotion near the slide, so even though I was scared I looked at what was it. I saw Vita.
"Vitaaa, Sister thought she would never see you again T ^ T Why did you leave the guard house? You
should have waited for your sister there? I'm sorry I was late to pick you up T ^ T Sister just got too
busy. sorry "I cried and hugged Vita. Vita is also crying. When I noticed he had a young man next to
him.
I was surprised by the presence of Adam.
"Why are you here?" I told him.
He was my only thesis partner who selfishly did the thesis alone. An only child, so he is a Mama's boy.
He has a cool look when it comes to form but I am more matured than him. He still acts as a child, very
immature although resposible at school.
"Thank you very much." He staring at me and said sarcastically.
"Why would I say thankyou? Did you find Vita?" I asked calmly.
"Yes I saw her. I saw her near our school. Then her number is on her school ID so I thought she was
your sister. I never thought you had a special sister Vera." He said giving the bag of Vita.
What? Near our school? How far did Vita go to get there.
"How many hours have you been with Vita?" I asked
"It's already 1 hour since I saw her. Let's eat first. She's been hungry for a while now. She's crying."
Adam answered me coldly.
We ate at a nearby ramen resto here in our area.
"Next time, don't leave your sister, especially if she is like this. What if I don't see her and wasn't the
one who had seen her? What will happen?" Annoyed Adam said.
The way you react to this, you would have really thought that Adam has a sister too, that he could
understand how I feel. Psh.
"I'm tired Adam we're going home. Thanks for the food." I said and loaded Vita while her bag and my
bag were attached to me.
Shoot! It's heavy.
"Then next time you can not wear such a short and fitted uniform. What a pain in the Eye." he said and
someone threw a colored plastic bag at me.
"Wash when you get home." He says.
He has really no manners. He had seen already that Vita was asleep and then He would still threw a
plastic at me. Psh
When Vita and I got home, we went straight to sleep. I never got to change my uniform before
I fell on the sofa.
That night Mama was not there yet. Sometimes I wonder why mama still has to work 3 jobs.
Can't she just work in an office job so he can take care of Vita and me?
