SANDOVAL'S DESIRE

Chapter 54 [Reunion]

Saji Argelia's Point of View.

"Kent Axel," pagtawag ko sa kaniya ngunit natural niya akong nilingon at nginitian na mas ikinataka ko.

Hindi ba niya tatanungin kung anong narinig ko?

"I can't stay any longer, thanks for your time." He said and glanced at me.

"You bought this?" tanong niya at lumapit na sa akin kaya naman tumango tango ako bilang sagot.

"I met three guys earlier, Gavin, one of the business partners, and a totally stranger." His brows furrowed.

"And?"

"I'm just telling you that I did," I said and sat down on the sofa, he rest his back beside me and then grabbed the chocolate muffin.

"Actually my favorite is something you're allergy at," he said and bite his muffin, "strawberry. It just tastes good right?" tanong niya kaya tumango ako bilang sagot at kumain na.

"By the way what should I do if my online bank account is out of money?" tanong ko na ikinatigil ng pag-nguya niya.

"Give me your account," he mentioned that made me curious.

"Why?"

"I'll fix it for you," he said and grabbed the drink but then he accidentally pulled my drinks that almost soak the carpet.

But because of his reflexes he catched it right away. "Sorry I'm kinda sleepy love," wika niya at umayos na ulit ng pagkakasandal.

Napabuntong hininga ako at isinandal ang ulo ko sa balikat niya dahilan para matigilan siya at tignan ako.

"Love," I whispered.

"If you're going to save one person—"

"I'd rather not choose, I hate choices that makes me choose." Mabilis niyang sagot na mahina kong ikinatawa.

"Bakit may choices bang hindi ka papipiliin ha?" tanong ko na mabilis niyang inilingan.

"That's why I hate choices love," he answered and put his arm on my waist.

"But make me choose between kissing you or hugging you, I'll do both and that's my choice." Natawa ako at napailing na lang.

"How much do you love yourself?" tanong ko.

"I love myself without computing how much I do," well he's really a lawyer.

Hindi ako makakahanap ng gusto kong sagot kung maiiwasan niyang sagutin 'yon sa paraan na gusto ko.

"Love can't be measured, pain can be level right?" tanong niya.

"How will you level pain? By rating it in one to ten? You can't." Pakikipagtalo ko.

"Why?"

"Because pain is a feeling attorney, you can't measure a feeling." Pagmamatigas ko.

"You can measure it by asking yourself," he answered.

"You can't, I told you. You can't sinabi ko na 'yan ng ginawa natin ang project sa bahay niyo." Ibinaba ko ang iniinom at sinamaan siya ng tingin.

"That someone can die because of heartbreak?"

"Obviously," I answered and rolled my eyes.

"Then why do I know that I was hurt more when you rejected me?" natigilan ako at tsaka bumuntong hininga.

Accepting defeat?

"But I was telling you, you can't measure it."

"But I can level it right? No one told me to measure it." Bumuntong hininga ako at pinagkrus ang braso.
