Chapter 35

Trent told me not to wear the necklace inside the club so I followed his order and removed it from me. Binalik naman niya iyon sa box nito kanina at nilagay sa glove compartment. I know it will be safe naman on his car. This club we'll be going ay isang club so it's better to be safe than sorry. Mabuti na lang din ay pumayag si Trent because I know he hated too much crowds but for the sake of me, he agreed basta napagkasunduan namin na hindi ako aalis sa tabi niya just like what happened the last time.

I won't leave him naman. Takot ko lang noon pero ngayon, there's no reason to be afraid and leave him behind. Bakit ko pa tatakasan ang future life ko na kapag hawak-hawak ko ang kamay niya ay pakiramdam ko ay kumpleto na ang mundo ko.

Kapit na kapit ang kamay ni Trent sa kamay ko. It's like he doesn't want to lose me in these sea of crowds. He even wear a shades para raw hindi siya makilala once we're inside the club. Takot na takot ang jowa ko na makilala siya, but that's his way of preventing anyone who would invade his privacy and I totally understand it.

"We'll only be staying until midnight," paalala sa akin ni Trent.

"That's alright, that's not a problem. And I miss going to clubs around here kaya naman parang first time lang ulit sa akin."

"Weren't you going out when you're in the Philippines?"

Umiling naman ako. "I don't usually go to clubs lalo na sa Pinas. It wasn't my cup of tea, but my brothers usually does. Sa club sa Taguig nakilala ni Kuya Welbourne while si Kuya Nico naman na-meet niya 'yong ex-wife niya somewhere sa Makati. And then I met you here. Ibang-iba mula sa kanila."

"Have you had boyfriends?"

Napataas naman ang kilay ko sa tanong niya at bahagyan akong napangisi. "Why would you want to know that ha? Curious ka or nagseselos ka?"

"I was just asking," ngisi rin nito. "Don't make a big deal out of it."

I was slightly offended when he mentioned that. "How—wow. I'm not making a big deal out of it and so should I tell you, I never got a boyfriend ever."

"But have you flirted with anyone else?

"I did but that doesn't count as an actual relationship," depensa ko pa sa kanya. "I've had a few crushes back in college but I was more focused on my academic tracks so love life was never served for me at that moment. I didn't even mind getting one—"

"Until you met me," pagpapatuloy niya. Lumakas bigla ang hangin dahil sa sinabi or it was just Trent after all. "You didn't get a boyfriend because you're waiting for me, right?"

"Don't be so confident, okay?" I chuckled. "I wouldn't even met you if I needed to get out of family."

"And you wouldn't be away from your family if you haven't found out about my nanny job posting," he debated. "So what are you saying now?"

"You're..."

"I'm what?"

"Mahangin."

"And what that should be mean?"

"It means you're gwapo."

"I don't think so," he smirked, shaking his head. "I know you meant something."

"Guys!" Naagaw naman ni Sasa ang atensyon namin at sabik naman itong lumapit sa amin. "They have private rooms here. What would you like to have? Be in the huge area with everybody or we can get into the floor where we can still be around the crowd but on the second floor."
