Once Upon He Was Mine (Good Girls Series #4)

Chapter 46: Card

“Talaga? Kung ako sa ‘yo? Susupalpalin ko ‘yon!” Demi exclaimed, today’s Friday. Yeah, September 22, our monthsary. And I am currently watching his basketball game with the current varsity players of college.

“Si Felexys? Ang ganda niyan, eh! Lagi ‘yang laman ng pageantry noon,” Iryn said.

After I told them about our last encounter, I can see how annoyed they are. I didn’t intend to annoy them by telling this, I just think that I have to tell them about it.

“Eh ano kung maganda? Maganda rin naman si Brey at matalino, medyo pumalya lang sa tangkad, pero balik tayo sa ganda at talino. Tapos lamang lang siya sa hinaharap. Pero si Brey-Brey pa rin ang mahal ni Matthew,” Audrey said. Bigla naman akong napatingin sa ano ko. It’s not that huge just like Lexy’s, but I am confident and comfortable with it. And I’m not competing naman so I don’t have to be insecure.

Pero kahit na!

Parang bigla akong naliitan sa dibdib ko. I just frowned while thinking of it.

“Sabi ni Matthew ayaw niya raw sa desperate girls. Tingnan mo si Ericka ngayon, gano’n din kahahantungan ni Lexy.” Zeus wiggled his brows.

“Ikaw ba? You want desperate girls? 'Yong naghahabol?” Iryn asked. Zeus just clicked his tongue.

“Bakit ba lagi kayong nakakahanap ng paraan para maitapat sa akin ang spotlight? Tsk!” He scratched the back of his head. Demi just chuckled.

“Oyy, wait! Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!” Demi raised her hands in front of my face with her closed eyes. She slowly opened it and glared at me.

“W-Why?”

“Aldrich? Si Aldrich nakasama mo sa Jail Booth?” she asked, still glaring at me. Medyo kinabahan naman ako. Nakita ko pa ang pagsulyap sa amin ni Ken pero agad din namang binalik ang tingin sa court.

“Y-Yeah, why?” I tried recalling what he told me that time. Nakakainis lang dahil ayaw noon mawala sa isip ko. I just feel something weird inside me kahit sinabi naman niyang joke lang 'yon.

Am I in love again? No,

Honestly, no. I just felt something… goose bumps on my skin? Eww

“Ah! Ang swerte niya!” Audrey exclaimed. “Sana all, nakakalapit kay Aldrich! Crush ko ‘yan, eh!”

“Hey, ako ang nauna! Hindi mo naman siya makikilala kung hindi ko siya pinakilala sa ‘yo,” Demi said.

“Gwapo nga siya, in fairness. Mukhang Italiano.” Iryn nodded while showing us her phone. My lips twitched in disgust. She really did stalk him?

“Yuck!” Zeus exclaimed. “Gwapo na ‘yon, Gabby? Mas gwapo pa kami ni Ken d'yan, eh!” He rolled his eyes.

“Timang, baka kaibigan mo rin ‘to? Kung makapanira ka,” she retorted.

“’Wag ka na magselos, Zeus. Ikaw pa rin naman number one sa puso ko. Second lang naman si Aldrich.” Audrey smirked, Zeus looked at her.

“Sure ka?” Zeus smirked playfully,

“Oh my gosh! Shemay!” I hit Iryn’s arm.

Did Zeus really say that?!

“Nademonyo ka!” Demi squeezed Zeus’ cheeks while laughing out loud.

“Stop that, Janee!” Zeus yelled. “Sure ka na talaga d'yan, Audrey?” Zeus asked once again. Pigil ang hininga ko habang pinapanood ang dahan-dahang pagtango ni Audrey. Zeus grinned before messing his own hair.
