Trapped In You

Chapter 23

Chapter 23: Sooner or later

Magkatabi kami ni Dylan sa sofa kaharap si Mr. Williams, he was so surprised about my visit and I was surprised about Dylan. Pumunta ako dito dahil sa kanya at siguro magandang chance na rin ito para makapag-usap kami.

Medyo natulala pa nga ako kanina sa kanya dahil unang beses ko lang siya uli nakita ng harapan sa apat na taon. It took me by surprised. Naii-star-struck ako na hindi mo malaman ugh!

"What's so important that you have to come to me in person, Ms. Elyne?" Nag-cross legs si Mr. Williams. "Will you sign the contract?"

I slightly glance at Dylan and he's facing forward. I smile broadly. "Well, if Mr. Alford can convince me..Why not?" Naramdaman kong napatingin siya sa'kin pero hindi ako natinag. "I want him to pursue me hard to become one with your company, Sir. If that's not really bothering--"

"Wait, what do you mean pursue you?"

Tumingin ako sa kanya at mahinhing ngumiti. "Let's talk about that later, we have to listen about Mr. Williams will going to say right?"

He nodded and he clasps his hand. "Well, why not? It's not really a bother Mr. Alford? If she sign the contract then I will sign yours too, not bad right? I will invest a huge amount of money Mr. Alford, once you win the heart of Ms. Elyne Ferrer. That's the deal."

I really don't know why they want to hire me as their pastry chef. Yes, while I'm in new york, I become an Icon, why? I've become a famous graduate pastry chef and I've also once become a model, sinuggest lang yun ni Tito Rod kaya makikita mo ako sa iba't-ibang magazine but that's all, hindi ko naman alam na magiging sikat talaga ako para habulin talaga ako ng mga kumpanya.

However, I think that's the advantage to it because that's the reason why I get to see Dylan again.

Palabas na ako ng company nung sinundan pala ako ni Dylan. "What are you doing?" Agad niyang tanong sa'kin.

"What do you mean?" Taas kilay kong sabi. "Bakit ako ang gusto mong sumuyo sa'yo?"

"Bakit hindi?" Balik ko naman. Halata sa mukha niya ang pagka-frustrate, did I stressed him out that much? Did he hate that much? Did he hate being with me? "What do you want to do?"

"Do you really want to talk about it? Then, mamayang gabi alas-otso." Nilapitan ko siya at tinignan ng diretso sa mata. "Sumipot ka at ayokong magpadala ka ng ibang tao. Okay?"

Pumara ako ng taxi at iniwan na siya doon.

Subukan niya talaga akong hindi siputin! Humanda siya sa'kin, nanggigigil talaga ako sa kanya eh. Sayang ang pag-aayos ko at pagpapaganda ko tapos hindi niya ako sisiputin, ang sarap manapak ng alien sa moon alam mo yun?

I wore a dark green cocktail lacey dress and heels. Humanda ka Dylan!

Nakarating ako ng restaurant at hinanap kaagad ng mata ko ang taong gustong makita nito.

Napatigil ako saglit and I smiled..My heart beats faster and faster. He's wearing a black suit and hindi siya naka-tie, naka-unbuttoned lang yung dalawang butones niya and that totally makes him hot, yung kanina niyang nakababang buhok ay naka-clean cut na kaya kitang-kita na yung mukha niya, I was amazed when he looked at me with his eyes, his hazel eyes that I missed and his full lips smiled.

Ngayon ko lang siya talaga natitigan ng mabuti, hindi tulad kanina.

He stood up to welcome me. Inabot niya yung kamay niya sa'kin, nakalapit na ako sa at nakipag-shake hands ako sa kanya, and sari-sari kuryente ang naramdaman ko sa buong katawan ko, god! I still feel the same. Sana hindi niya naramdaman ang pagkanginig nito.
