C6 Chapter 6

"Who even gave the idea to enter her room?" The man who looked like a robot said. Ernaline seemed to have seen the other half of her older brother Reiden.

"It’s Jasper," Kaizen pointing at the man.

"It's Kyle," Jasper pointed out

"It was Senri," Kyle said.

"What? Why me?" The four still pointed out each other. Ernaline immediately grabbed the baseball bat she was holding so that the four could run behind the sofa. They are annoying!

"Calm down Hija. I haven't been baptized yet. Don't ruin my future first, I'm still a virgin."

"Shut up Kaizen. What virgin are you talking about? How many women were you the other day?"

"You shut up Jasper, I didn't know Grei's sister was so deadly and those women came up to me and tied me to the bed!" Kaizen said. Reiden was just shaken by the antics of the four. He got up from his seat before approaching his sister and snatching the baseball bat she was holding. Maybe what else these four could say to his sister made her even angrier so he stopped them immediately.

"Calm down baby, I'll tell you everything."

"So, you will live here?" Ernaline asked.

"Did Mom and Dad know this?" she added before turning to her brother who was reading the newspaper.

"Yeah, they know about it," Reiden spoke lifelessly to his sister. The news is full of massacres in the city and rampant looting of prestigious buildings.

"Find your own house. You can't be here." Reiden did not look at her sister but focused his eyes on a headline.

"What?" Kyle complains.

"If we do that, we will lose everything we have ... career, luxurious life, even our personal lives will be shattered. Will you be sad to see your own family suffer?" Kaizen was tense and looked like he was going to cry.

"Besides Ernaline, you are our vocalist. In short, you will be the leader of the band. Whatever you decide we will follow written in the contract that we will be together under one roof. We were sorry about what happened earlier. We just want to test you out if you are qualified to handle us." The girl thought about what Kyle had said. Even with his bad habits, he knows how to apologize. But she still would not forgive them.

"Boss Cal also wants to see the song you made tomorrow and according to Kyle, it will pass our taste so there won't be a problem. Just a little practice then viola you have your debut." Jasper added to convince their princess.

Ernaline did nothing but agree to Calvin's condition but they will not live here in the house but a condo unit owned by Senri. They cannot benefit from the money of her parents. After all, she knows how to research the backgrounds of her bandmates. Who is she to not take advantage of the wealth they have? Oh well, she’s the newest vocalist of their band.

"I'll carry your luggage," Kyle whispered to the girl as she dragged her suitcase out of their house.

Ernaline gave Kyle a death glare. "Interfere with everything but not my things, Espasol!"

"What the fuck is Espasol?" Kyle frowned at its call to him. Kyle even looked at Jasper who simply laughed.

"Whatever!" Ernaline left the astonished Kyle before approaching the place where Jasper and Kaizen were busy playing rock-paper-scissors. Whoever won would drive the van.

"Get in the car you assholes. We're going to spend the night, I have a photoshoot tomorrow." Kyle scolded the two who immediately complied. Jasper sat in the driver seat and Kaizen was in the passenger seat before starting the engine. Even before the van went far, Senri, who was in front of him, fell asleep immediately. The girl ignored that but just put on the headphones and played.

"Have we arrived yet?" She asks them. Because even before his buttocks warmed up, they stopped immediately a few minutes after they left the village. Kyle turned to the girl.

"Nope! We're here in a supermarket. We need to buy our stock," he answered.

She just shrugged before following the four down the car. For the first time, she went to a market with only those men accompanying her. She covered the hood of the jacket over her head. It's hard and they might get hit here she means the guys she was with. Her companions were not mere creatures. As she stepped on the entrance of the supermarket, she was shocked when the four men with her were already trapped in the door and were trampled on.

"Ouch!" Ernaline groans quietly.

Disgusted she went through the crowd until she entered the market. The cold air-condition greeted her until she went straight to the source of the cart. The guard greeted her but Ernaline ignored him. Ernaline went straight to the dry foods, she took vegetables and fruits that she estimated would take a month.

Ernaline also took pork, chicken, ham, two trays of eggs, and seasonings. Ernaline is busy getting what they need while the four idiots can't leave the group. Who is as guilty as ever appearing in public? Maybe they forgot they are one of the celebrities being looked up to today? Boys will be boys, being thirsty for women’s attention.

Ernaline was currently at the chips stall when she realized her wallet was left in the car. She turned her gaze in the direction of the four who were still busy taking pictures and autographs with the fans. What lucky bastard.

Ernaline was blown away by her stupidity because she didn't bring her own money. She could not return her purchases because a guard followed her inside the supermarket. Explosively she dropped the gigantic chip on top of the cart full of food. She approached the mob in confusion.

Ernaline coughed loudly. "Excuse me? Can I borrow them? As you can see we'll buy groceries." Ernaline said calmly. She's not a bitchy-like-attitude, but she gets annoyed and wants to scratch someone’s face in situations like this.

"Miss, can you line up? We're first! There's the line, wait your turn!" Ernaline was stunned by what the woman said and even pointed to the 'queue' supposedly at the very end.

Seriously?

Ernaline was blown away by the feeling of being so annoyed. She was about to leave when Espasol spoke.

"I'm sorry ladies. But our 'Queen' is irritated right now. We don't want to eat at the restaurant when she's angry especially; we prefer her cooking than the professional chef here in the Philippines." Kyle said to get the group of women out of their way. He knew that the girl was mad at him again but he didn’t mind at all.

"Who's that bitch?" it was as if the four men's ears were ringing. These women have no right to call their Princess by that name since she is innocent of things like this.

Kaizen stopped Kyle from saying the right thing. Kyle almost forgot they were in a public place.

"Are you a stupid girl or are you deaf? She was called Queen with our Prince, maybe she was probably an important person"

"I hate her!"

"Me too."

"Me three."

Ernaline rolls her eyes before turning away from the four fleas. They were even apologizing to the fans.

Ernaline was surprised when someone snatched the cart from her hand and Senri's serious face appeared on her while the three idiots were holding the cart themselves.

"FINALLY!" Ernaline shouted after falling on the sofa. They also traveled for more than 2 hours because Senri's condo is in Pasig while the CDC is in Makati.

"Damn it's heavy. Who would have thought of going to the grocery store?" Kaizen complains.

"Shut up Kaizen. Put that in there in the kitchen and I'll fix it later!" Jasper shouted as Kaizen grinned at them.

The condo is on the fifteenth floor and they are on the twelfth floor where the rooms are large, according to Senri. On the fifteenth floor is an event hall where the party desired by the occupants is held. The interior and exterior design of the condo where they stay is beautiful. It has five rooms with respective comfort rooms and bathtubs. Fortunately, she has her room. She will make sure that she will double-locked the door later before she sleeps because they’re might enter her room again with this four, it would be better to be sure.

"I'll go to bed first," Ernaline said goodbye before climbing the four flights of stairs.

"It’s too early Queen," Kyle said

"Sleep tight dragon!" Kaizen

"I hope you won’t wake up, forever!" Jasper

Ernaline turned to Jasper from where he is.

"Maybe you want me to ruin your future Jasper?" The young man immediately covered what he was supposed to protect. Ernaline entered the room and set aside her suitcase and guitar. Maybe she'll fix her things tomorrow. Wanting to sleep, Ernaline lay down and stared at the ceiling.

‘Is this perhaps the beginning of a new phase in my life full of adventure? My life is so boring. And I must say that I am happy because I met Kuya Calvin especially the band Blackhand.'

Until she gradually closed her eyes regardless of the door being open.
