Living With No Heartbeats (Living Series #1)

Chapter 4

Meet

"So, this is your place?" I said looking around. We're here in his condo unit. A little bit shocked and awkward. Maraming pumapasak sa isipan ko na pwedeng mangyari. I just throw that kind of thoughts. Sobrang green ko naman yata. Nahawa na ako kay Heart, ah.

"Yup. Have a seat. I'll get the first-aid kit." he said.

Pero hindi ko yon ginawa. Nilibot ko ang kabuuan ng unit niya. I thought while on our way, makakakita ako ng maraming kalat, or bottled of beer, his clothes na nakakalat kong saan-saan. But I'm wrong. His condo unit is very clean. The combination of black ang gray paint is very nice. I looked at the ceiling and it has a chandelier. He has a king size bed, side table and lampshade. The white curtains are dancing because of wind. Binuksan niya siguro kanina.

I walked towards his cabinet and saw a lot of watches. Mga mamahalin. But I've noticed he always wear that rolex one. I think it's a gift from a friend... or his girlfriend. Whatever.

Lumabas siya ng bathroom holding a first-aid kit. He changed his clothes. He's now wearing a black shorts and white v-neck t-shirt. Ngayon ko lang siya nakitang ganito ang suot. Well, it's his unit naman. Pero nakakapanibago lang talaga. I admire him about his clothes. Whatever he wore, he is still good on it. While me, I love the clothes, but it doesn't fit my body.

"Are you hungry?" he asked.

I just sit now on his black sofa and cross my hands in front of my chest. I looked at him.

"Kakakain ko lang kanina, diba?" I rolled my eyes.

"Easy. I'm just asking. Baka napagod ka sa byahe."

Concern yarn?

"Exactly. We're not here to eat. Baka next time gusto mo pala mag mukbang dadalhan kita ng damo."

He looked at me and his lips rose of a bit. He chuckled. "Anong nakakatawa? Akin na ang cotton, gagamutin ko 'yang pisteng sugat mo."I said iritated.

"Just say you don't want to make this with-"

"Shut up. Ang daldal mo,"

Lumapit ako sa kanya at kinuha ang cotton at nilagyan ng alcohol. After that, I put betadine. I heard him cursed pero mahina lamang iyon pero narinig ko pa rin. Mahapdi siguro ang alcohol kaya ganoon na lang ang reaksiyon niya.

So gay.

"Oh,  Masakit ba?" Tumango siya at nakangiwi. "Tingin ng sakit?"

"You're so... ugh," nasabi niya.

"Aba, napapaungol na kita? Cotoon at betadine palang 'to, kalma."

He chuckled.

"Stay still, ipapamukbang ko talaga 'to sayo."

"Ang alin?" He said teasing me. Iba ang nasa utak ko. Mama! What happened to my innocent brain? Balik puro green?!

Hindi ako nagsalita at pinandilatan ko naman kaya tawang- tawa ang mukong. Nilagyan ko ng band aid ang sugat niya. Mabilis ang hininga pero hindi niya pinahalata. His adams apple moved. Hindi ko na lang pinansin iyon.

"Yong cotton ang ipapakain ko sayo. Wag kang green. Alam ko nasa isip mo. Wag kang magkakamali kasi majujumbag talaga kita sa ano mo,"

"Okay, okay." natatawang niyang suko. "Thank you."

Nilagay ko na ulit sa lalagyan ang cotton, alcohol at betadine. I looked at him and I just realized kong ano ang posisyon namin!

Nakasandal siya sa sofa, while me, us on the top of him. I almost touch his..damn it. Agad akong namula at lumayo sa kanya. Agad kong kinuha ang first-aid kit at ibinalik iyon sa bathroom. To save myself too!

I closed the door and look at the mirror. I'm blushing for fuck's sake. Hindi naman ako kinikilig ah! I stayed in the bathroom for almost 20 minutes. Nang hindi pa ako lumabas ay narinig ko ang boses niya. Great! Just great.

"Uhm, K-kane. Are you okey, there?" he said.

Matagal pa bago ko iyon sinagot! He knows my name! Kanina pa kami nag uusap pero, we don't formally introduce ourselves. For what?

"I'm okey!" I shouted.

"Go outside. I want to pee."

"What?" gulat naman ako.

"I want to pee!" he said again. I heard him cursed again.

I have something on my mind. I smirked to myself.

"Just wait for a minute! Gosh." maarte kong sagot.

"What are you doing there for almost 20 minutes? Kulang pa ba ang make up mo? You don't need it. Your beautiful without it." he said.

Namula na naman ako dahil sa sinabi niya! Can he stop saying those, chessy...words! I don't like it! Mabuti at nasa loob ako ng bathroom at hindu niya nakikita ang reaksiyon ko. Sobrang kahihiyan na ito ngayong araw para sa akin!

"What are you saying? Don't play with me, with your words. It's not effective!" I said iritated. Tumingin ako sa salamin at medyo mapula parin ang mukha ko.

Nagulat naman ako dahil binuksan niya ang pintuan! What the heck.

"What are you doing! I'm not done yet! Omygad rapist! Help! Help!" sigaw ko.

"Shut up! I just wanted to pee. Ang tagal mo." agad naman siyang pumasok sa C.R. Good thing nakaseperate siya, kaya hindi ko naman siya makikita.

Lumabas ako at dali daling kinuha ang sling bag bago lumabas. Hindi na ako nagpaalam sa kanya. I'm mad at him. Really really mad! Pasalamat siya at condo niya yon. Pero mali parin siya. Ugh. I don't know why I'm here on his fucking unit. Bakit pa ako nag offer e, kaya niya naman pala.

I was about to go when someone grabbed my hand. I almost jumped and curse inside my mind when I see his damn face! So handsome, but I hate handsome faces.

"Wait, are now leaving? Without any words? Are you like that, really?" he said, a bit irritated.

Bakit kasi ang hot mo parin kahit nagagalit ka. Mas lalo siya gumagwapo kapag galit. Kaya gagalitin ko na lang siguro 'to palagi.

"After you open the door, do you think I can be with you in that room? Hindi ko kakayanin yon!"

"You don't know mine, too. And also, before you leave make sure you bring all your things." he squeeze his hair out of frustration. He's mad?

Agad naman akong napaisip kong may naiwan ba ako. Wala naman akong maalala. All may things is on my sling bag. Hindi naman ako naglalabas ng kahit na ano pagdating namin dito.

"I don't leave my things, either. It's all in my bag. I'll leave na. Don't chase me like a dog, sir." nagulat ako sa sinabi ko at ganoon din siya. Hindi ko pinahalata iyon at pumasok sa elevator. Pero bago pa sumara iyon ay pumasok siya! Ano bang gusto niya!

"Leave me alone, please." I said and greeted my teeth.

"I don't chase you like a dog, Miss Heon. I just wanted to return this fucking phone of you." he said and get out.

Kinalma ko ang sarili ko. Sobrang kahihiyan ang nangyari sa akin ngayong araw. I open my phone and saw a messages from Jezley and Heart.

Jezley:

Damn you, umalis ka raw kasama si Langford? Enjoy!

Kumunot ang noo ko kong bakit alam niya. Well chismosa pala sila.

Heart:

Don't forget the condom! Enjoy with Mr. Hot Langford. Ang landi mo!

I don't reply anyone of them. Instead, I called Manong Eric to pick me up.
