chapter ten | jealous

"Kainis, mama naman kasi eh.." naiiyak na ungot ni Windsor bago sinimulan na muling paandarin ang sasakyan.

"Let's go home, I'm tired already. Magkita na lang tayo bukas," I said in finality.

"Airvieh.." Windsor sobbed like a kid. He's not even crying, umaarte lang.

I ignored him and just remained silent while thinking a lot of things and possibilities that might happen. Hindi ko maintindihan. Windsor told me before that he already mentioned me to his Parents, but now that he called them, his Mother suddenly told him about a date and other name of a girl.

Ako ba ay pinaglololoko nitong lalaking 'to? O baka naman.. Hindi ako tanggap ng Parents niya at 'yung Ejzhaori na 'yon ang gusto? Tss, ano naman? They don't even know me yet. Baka sakaling mag bago naman siguro kung magpapakita ako sa Parents niya? Iyon ay kung ipakikilala ako ni Windsor sa kanila..

I blustery sighed when I noticed that we're already outside our house. Kahit masama ang loob, pinilit ko na maging kalmado upang kahit papano'y hindi lumaki ang pagtatalo namin. I want everything to clear too, because I don't want to over think things.

"Ayusin mo 'yan Windsor, sinasabi ko sa'yo—"

"Opo boss Airvieh, promise. Hindi talaga ako nambababae!" pinagsiklop niya ang sariling mga daliri at kamay, tila nagdadasal na huwag na akong magalit sa kanya.

Childish.

"My mom wants me to date Ejzhaori—"

"Ejzhaori pala huh.." tumango tango ako.

"Airvieh naman eh.."

"Oh ano?" my brow puckered up, waiting for his other explanation.

"Promise, sinabi ko na may girlfriend ako. Airvieh yung pangalan! Paulit ulit pa nga!"

"Oh?"

"Then she told me that she set me up on a date with her business partner's daughter. Sa ibang University 'yon be, sorry talaga hindi ko sinabi kasi nawala sa isip ko—"

"Nawala sa isip mo? Bakit, hindi ba importante 'yon?"

"Hindi—"

"Anong hindi?!" pinanlakihan ko siya ng mata.

"What I mean is.. It's not that important because I'm not really interested to date that girl. Syempre ikaw yung bet ko, ikaw girlfriend ko!" he defensively said.

"Do something about it. Ayusin mo 'yan kung—"

"Yes baby, please stop threatening me? Swear, trust me.. Hindi ako nambababae at wala akong plano.." seryoso nang anito.

I slightly felt relieved because of Windsor's assurance. Maya maya lang rin ay natapos na ang pag uusap namin at umuwi na rin siya kaagad. Iyon nga lang, patuloy niya akong kinulit sa texts na huwag na akong magalit.

Ako:

Stop annoying me. I believe in you, okay? Now, sleep and take a rest. I'm not mad as long as you're going to fix that.

I placed my phone over the bed side table after I hit the send button. I lay down on my bed and stared blankly at the ceiling, thinking about our new challenge in our relationship.

Yes, I think this is our new challenge. I don't want to think of it as a problem, but a challenge instead. Gusto ko man na pangunahan ng galit at selos, hindi ko magawang mag palamon doon nang tuluyan dahil iniisip ko rin naman si Windsor at ang relasyon naming dalawa.
