LOVE At First Sight

Cinq

"I am but who cares? I can do whatever I want. And what I want is you."

Mga salitang tumatak sa isip at puso ni Alexander sa mga oras na iyon. And even though he's happy knowing that there's someone out there who likes him, hindi nya maiwasang isipin kung bakit ba sya nito nagustuhan.

He's an asshole yes. But he's also a discreet man. Well, itong naging sya ang taya sa kanilang magkakaibigan, hindi na ito pagiging discreet.

But what's really her hidden agenda? Will she brag about my wealth? Let me try.

"I'm just a commoner." He used to say and only few of their friends knows his real status in life.

"So?"

So? He needs to explain? Fine! Kung yan an makapagpapapiga sa babaeng ito sa hidden agenda nya, then he'll explain.

"Meaning simpleng tao lang ako na may ordinaryong buhay. I'm just a freaking bartender. And I'm only saying this once and for all. I don't want to fall in love with you." Partly, it's true. Ayaw nyang mainlove sa babaeng ito na sobrang angat ang estado sa buhay. Isa lang syang hamak na bartender. Who would be proud of him?

"And I will not wait for that moment to come because your family won't accept me. I'm just a nobody—"

Hindi nya na naituloy ang sinasabi nya dahil nagulat sya sa sumunod na ginawa ni Tiffany.

Tiffany cupped his face using both hands and this time, she kissed him on the lips. Not quick, but a long peck of kiss.

And when Tiffany pulled away, gone those fierce amber eyes. The way she looks at him is drowning him even more on her mesmerizing amber eyes.

"I'll change your perception about that. Besides, it's you that I like. It's you that I want. So don't say that you're just a nobody because you're everything for me."

His breathing hitched upon hearing what Tiffany just said. How could this woman robbed his oxygen just like that? How could this woman make him feel like he's one hell of a lucky bastard? They've just met few days ago for fucking sake!

"We've j-just met..."

Tiffany smiled sweetly at him before she spoke. "I've known you for quite a long time. For sure you won't remember me. Pero ikaw? Hinding-hindi ko makakalimutan."

His mouth gaped in surprised because of what she said. She knows me for a long time? How? Kahit anong kalkal nya sa isip nya, wala naman syang maalala na nakilala nya ang babaeng ito.

"So don't you ever think that my feelings for you is shallow. Because when I said that I like you and I want you, I mean it."

I like you and I want you.

That words. It felt something deep inside of him that he can't explain. That euphoric feelings he's feeling inside right now. What kind of feeling is this? What is it exactly? Is it because he's proud that someone likes him? Or there's more reason behind this feeling inside of him?

Still he's confused.

But honestly, sagad na ang pagpipigil nya. He can't deny the fact that those attacks from this woman also made his body burn with lust. Kanina pa sya nagpipigil maski sa pagdidirty talk nito sa kanya.

And now, he can't control himself anymore.

He abruptly stood up and held Tiffany's hand and dragged her to the nearest fitting room on the store. He locked the door and pinned her on the wall before he drown himself again into her amber eyes.

Tiffany felt her heart beating loud and fast because of the anticipation on what will Alexander will do to her. Nagpatianod na nga lang sya sa paghila nito sa kanya eh. At tulad ngayon, pinagkakatitigan sya nito kaya't halos hindi na sya makahinga ng maayos.
