Vow of the Dawn (La Carlota #2)

07

"Ano ba't hatak ka nang hatak?!"

I hissed and with all my might I squirmed out my wrist out of his hands, he dragged me to their kitchen, walang mga maids and it's just us and the food refills! His ears are all red and he let me go then sighed in exasperation.

"Galit ka ba?" I rolled my eyes exhaled harshly, hindi ako galit but if he continues to ask if I am then maybe I will get mad!

"No," I simply declared and fixed my loosely hanging hair, nagulo ata because of him, masyadong mabilis niya akong hinatak palayo roon sa kapatid niya! He's like a child throwing a tantrum and hiding his ice cream because he doesn't want to share, gosh!

"So galit ka nga," he concluded and placed his palm on the granite counter top of the kitchen, cornering me.

"Ang kulit mo? I said I'm not! Can't you comprehend?" My brows are now furrowed because I'm staring to get pissed, now I'm getting mad!

"Bakit ka ba kasi galit?" Napasinghap nalang ako sa inis, bakit niya ba pinipilit na galit ako?!

"Why are you even with me?! Where's your girlfriend! Gosh baka mamaya sabunutan nalang ako no'n bigla!" I said in a low tone, lumingon-lingon pa ako sa likod because mamaya naroon na 'yong Ellaine! Gosh naman kasi why is he sticking by my side! He's supposed to be with his girl!

"Hindi ko nga girlfriend, Let-" I immediately cut him off from denying his girlfriend for the nth time!

"Gosh, Light! Hindi mo kailangang mag-lie, okay?! I would appreciate it more if you'll speak the truth," I uttered and crossed my arms over my chest, puro siya palusot! Naiinis ako lalo! Does he knows how much it hurts to be denied?! "Alam mo, ikaw? You keep on denying your girlfriend, you'll get your karma in time! Ang rude-rude mo!" He let out a sigh and his head is bowed towards the floor.

"Kasi nga, Lettie hindi ko g-"

"Sinabi na nga ni Lennox d-"

"Kuya Lennox, Lettie, Kuya, at isa pa bakit ka ba naniniw-"

"Because even your mother announced it! Alangan namang she's bluffing! Tha-"

"Hindi naman kasi totoo! At hindi ako informed! Hind-"

"Don't you dare say na you don't know her because everyone knows she's from Priston, Light, now what I'm saying is.. I don't know why you're denying her in front of me because I really don't mind, mas ayos pa nga 'yon kesa 'yo-"

"Lettie!" Naiinis niyang untag at tinignan na ako, hindi 'yon pasigaw but it's more like a husky irritated voice. "Hindi ko nga kasi alam.. May gano'n talaga, okay? Gano'n sila, 'wag kang mag-alala, bukas din makik-"

"I don't care," I blurted, kita ko kung paano naiwang bahagyang nakabuka ang bibig niya, I really don't! I mean.. Saan naman may ganoon?! You have a girlfriend and your Mom surely announces it in front of Governors and other powerful clan of the whole town, tapos sasabihin mong hindi mo alam! Huh! I'm not that stupid! "I heard you really are a playboy and whatever you might be before but, denying the obvious, gosh Light! Kakarmahin ka! You do-"
