The Playboy's Pursuit

28: Those biceps

SUZY’S POV

“Suuuuzyyyyy!”

I halted with my steps when I suddenly heard that loud shout from the toilet. Drawing everyone’s attention in that floor. Dahilan para mapalunok nalang ako ng laway dahil parang galit na galit ang boses nito.

Oh my God!

Naloko na talaga!

I have to take a flight now before he could even spot me here.

Afraid with him, mabilis na’kong naglakad sa hallway papunta sa kabilang bahagi ng floor na’yon habang mariing hawak-hawak parin ang dala kong mop at balde na may lamang maruming tubig. I was actually half-running and half-walking right now, ignoring everyone’s curious gazes kahit hirap na hirap pa’ko ngayon dahil sa suot kong heels. Siguro nagtataka na ang mga ito kung bakit parang hinahabol na’ko ng kung anong demonyo ngayon habang panay naman ang lingon ko sa may banyo.

Then my heart almost leap out of my chest nang bigla ng bumukas ang pintuan sa banyong ‘yon and then came out Liam. The enraged and---- naked???

At the sight of him now shirtless, 'di ko mapigilang mapalunok na naman dahil dito. Dahilan para magsilakihan ang mga mata ng kung sinumang nandoon sa lugar na’yon. Shamelessly gawking at his glory.

Oh my God with this bastard! Why does he have to be this gorgeous??

Gusto ko rin sanang huminto ngayon and just gawk at him now pero bago ko pa man magawa ‘yon, his blazing eyes instantly focused on me.

Oh shit!

This time, para na'kong tinamaan ng kidlat sa pwet sa kakatakbo. Hindi ko na alintana kung natatapon na sa sahig ang lamang tubig mula sa balde. Gusto ko lang lumayo rito ngayon ora mismo at magtago mula sa kanya.

“Stop right there you woman!!”

When he commanded that with his powerful voice, I didn’t listened. I just keep running while in desperate search for a hideout. Desperate to escape from his ire.

“SUZY!”

“No! I won’t stop!” sigaw ko na rito as I was heaving up with deep breaths now. Ramdam kung hinahabol na rin niya ko ngayon.

"I said stop right there, Suzy!!"

"No! Never!" Sigaw ko na rito which caused his growl became more audible.

I didn't looked at him and just keep on running at the hallway.

Nang may nakakita na’kong papaliko, which from what I had remembered this morning was the way to the elevator, binilisan ko pa ang takbo ko and then swerved to that way.

There’s just no way na hahayaan ko itong mahuli n’ya ko-----

“Hey, Suzy?? Bakit parang nagmamadali ka yata ngayon?”

My head snapped to my right nang bigla ko nalang narinig ang boses na ‘yon. And my eyes instantly bulged out in horror when I spotted the smiling Klent outside of the window.

“Klent!!!” gulat na tawag ko rito as I skidded into a halt.

Nakalambitin ito sa labas ng bintana habang nakakapit sa safety belts na naka-attached sa katawan nito. Looking like a handsome burglar outside in his blue overall suit while a wiper and a sprays were in each of his hand.

Ho-ly Hell!

“A-Anong ginagawa mo diyan??!” taranta ko ng tanong rito as I ran towards him.

“Oh, I am just cleaning the walls. Ikaw? Why are you running this time? May humahabol ba sa’yo?” Takang tanong nito sa’kin while wiping off his sweats on his forehead.
