Back Series 1: Back To You (BxB)

Kabanata 24

Clayn

Kinabukasan, nadatnan ko si Cade sa sala namin pagkababa ko. He was sitting comfortably with his arms on the back rest and legs crossed. Bahagya naman akong napahinto sa pagbaba sa hagdanan. The memories of last night flashed.

We kissed.

We friggin kissed!

What the fuck!

The thought of it made me blushed. Agad na bumundol ang kaba sa aking dibdib. Paano ko siya haharapin ngayon? It'll be awkward for sure. Damnit!

Pupunta kasi ako sa studio ngayon kasi bukas na ang aming dance presentation. We will just have some meeting and final touch. I'm already dressed up and ready to go pero hindi ko alam if tutuloy ba ako sa pagbaba.

Nahihiya pa akong makita niya ako.

Nahihiya ako baka ipaalala niya yung halik. I wasn't a good kisser and that'll just made me more embarrassed.

Ano bang ginagawa niya dito?

Habang nag-iisip ako kung tutuloy ba ako o hindi ay biglang may tumawag sa likod ko.

"Oh, bunso! Hindi ka pa ba tutuloy?" it was mom.

Liningon ko siya. Papababa din siya, wearing a red fitted dress that hugs her body perfectly. All the curves are on its right place. My mom, even when she's on her late forties, she's still look so young.

Sabi niya kanina na may pupuntahan silang isang conference meeting.

"I actually gotta go, mom. Bye!"

At kiniss ko siya sa cheeks.

And now, I'm very much aware that Cade was already looking at me. For sure he had heard mom called me. His piercing eyes felt so intimidating na kahit nakatalikod ay ramdam ko parin.

Nagbuntong-hininga ako at bumaba na. Hindi ko alam kung paano ako magre-react ngayon. Should I acknowledge his presence or ignore him?

"Cade, hijo, isabay niyo nalang to si Clayn sa Lane Studio. I-drop niyo nalang ni JK ha?" si mommy.

I halted.

"Sige tita, no problem." and Cade smiled to my mom.

His smiles, I don't know but I find it so attractive. I didn't usually see him smiled like that considering our past.

"Mom, I can take care." Agad kong pag-angal.

Bakit pa ako sasabay? I'm not comfortable being with him now.

"Oh stop it, bunso. Sumabay ka na sa kanila para safe. No more buts." she said it with finality. "Sige na mga ijo, I need to go. Take care okay?" paalam ni mommy.

Wala na akong nagawa at nagbuntong hininga. I faced Cade who's brows are shot up right now. Kuya is still probably dressing up right now.

"Good morning! Did you had a good night sleep?" he asked me smirking.

I feel like may pinapahiwatig siya kaya namula ako. This man. Can't he just stop talking about last night?

"Yeah!" I simply said and sat on the other sofas.

I saw how his brows furrowed. I only shot my brows up to him.

"Come here." he tapped the space beside him.
