Tourney of Beguiling (North Series #2: Fausea)

Chapter 10

Scandal

"Hanggang kalian ka ba dito?" Charry asked while pulling my comforter.

"What time is it?" pipikit pikit pa ang aking mga mata.

She sighed then lay beside me. "Alas nuebe na, Fau. Hinahanap ka sa akin ni Kuya Faust-"

I covered my ears with the pillow beside me.

"Rhyno kept on-"

Hinampas ko na ng unan. She is ruining my day!

"Aray! Sakit non a!" she shouted at pinaghahampas na din ako.

I groaned and lazily sat down, sumandal sa headboard at inayos ang strap ng aking sleeveless.

"Bellamy says that I can stay here as long as I want." I rolled my eyes.

I've been staying in Bellamy's condo unit for days now. I can't stand seeing Alfaust at home, I am very disappointed.

"You can now come out, Rhyno flew earlier today nagtungong ibang bansa sabi ni Kuya."

Nagkatinginan kami. She held my hand and smiled solemnly. Charrina has been there for me for the past days. Lumambot ang kanyang expression nang titigan ko siya ng malamig. I don't want to talk ablout Rhyno.

I already knew his reputation to girls. I thought I was different. Men bow down on me but here I am, nadala din niya.

I was completely getting along with him, hindi ko namamalayan na natatangay na din ako.

Maybe this is my ego speaking, I liked him and felt that he does like me too. Pero sinong niloloko ko? Men liked many women. They just can't stick with one.

I wish I could find a love like my parents but this era is very modern. Nakakatakot na.

"Magrereview nalang pala tayo." She chuckled.

Papalapit na ang final examination. Last exam at g-graduate na kami. Kaonting tiis nalang. Maybe I'll rest for months and for sure after those months lilipat ako sa Ilocos para matulungan sina Daddy sa fish farm. Mas gugustuhin ko pa 'yon.

Hindi ko na makikita si Alfaust madalas, kasama ko pa sina Mommy. Maybe the fresh air of the province could cleanse all this heavy things inside my heart.

I've been hiding here, I don't want to see Rhyno. Nagagalit ako, pero mas nagagalit ako sa aking sarili. I let myself be attached with another man again. I don't love him but it feels so heavy. That scene felt so heavy.

I stood up and tied my hair in a high ponytail.

"I stayed up all night reviewing already."

Tumayo din siya. "Our block is arranging a party before final examination. Sa Friday na 'yon. Sama ka?"

"Saan daw?"

She shrugged off. "Sa Xylo daw sabi ni Tere. Sila na bahala sa reservation. Sinuggest ko nga ang Belliqour pero namamahalan daw sila."

I pursed my lips but eventually smirked. I am definitely going. Bumaba kami ng guest room after changing clothes. Good thing that Bellamy's unit is big. Two story, may personal gym pa siya.

We ordered pizza habang nagwowork-out.

I am running on the treadmill, Charry is doing planks. That girl, she loves to preserve her abs. Nasanay na din naman kami dahil member ng chearing squad. Now, time flew so fast.

"Didn't you know that Cole searched for you after their championship? I went to their after party. E, ayaw mo namang sumama nagmumokmok ka lang dito."

Umiling ako. "I have enough drama for now."
