The Playboy's Pursuit

32: That Someone from the past

SUZY’S POV

“You’re crazy, Liam. Mabuti pang bumalik na’ko sa taas.” Napapailing na saad ko na rito before I pulled out my hand from his hold na siyang ikinatigil ng tawa nito.

Akmang iiwan ko na sana ito doon but before I could even take a step, mabilis ng humarang ito sa harapan ko. Gone was the amusement in his face as he towered over me wearing a no nonsense look in his face.

“Don’t you think this would be our chance to continue our talk earlier, Suzy?”

When he reminded me with that, the urge to run again was too strong right now.

I took a step back para lumayo rito while glaring at him.

“Pwede bang kalimutan mo nalang ‘yon, Liam? I’m not here para pag-usapan ‘yon ngayon. I’m just here for Samantha kaya umakyat na tayo.”

I clenched my teeth when he just smirked at my way.

Can I punch him now so I could wipe out that darn smirk in his face?

“No. Kailangan ko lang malaman ngayon kung bakit parang hindi mo man lang masagot ang mga tanong kong ‘yon kanina.”

“Dahil hindi ko kailangang sagutin ‘yon, Liam.” Tiim ang mga bagang na sagot ko rito which he answered with a shook of his head.

“Ah-Ah… Kailangan mong sagutin ‘yon, Suzy kung gusto mo talagang lubayan na kita ng tuluyan..”

My brow quirked up at that statement.

“Lubayan? Are you sure na gagawin mo ‘yon kapag sinagot ko ang tanong na ‘yon?” I asked to confirm if my understanding was right.

He didn’t answered right away. And for a while, he just stared at me closely, as if he was giving it a deep thought. Well probably, he finally realized kung gaano kadali ang pinagagawa nito ngayon dahil sa sinabi nito.

“What? You want my answer right? Sabihin mo lang na ‘oo’ at sasabihin ko sa’yo ang sagot ko sa mga tanong mong ‘yon..” hamon ko rito when still, he didn’t talk.

This time, it was my turn to smirk at him. I have the upper hand of this situation now. Hindi na’ko takot na sagutin ang tanong na ’yon dahil hindi naman niya pala kailangang malaman ang tunay na sagot ko.

Pwede ko namang sabihin rito na ‘oo’ dahil wala akong pakialam kung seryoso na nga talaga ito o sa kung ano mang nararamdaman nito sa’kin. I just wanted him to leave me alone.

I noticed him heaved up a breath habang seryoso na ang mukha nito. Probably he had finally made up his decision now. And it must be----

“No deal.”

“What??” gulat na tanong ko rito which he just answered with sweet smile. Too sweet for my taste that I hope would rot his darn head!

“Narinig mo ko, sweatheart. Alam kong ‘oo’ ang magiging sagot mo sa’kin ngayon para mapilitan akong lubayan ka which is…. NEVER. Never gonna happen. Let’s head back upstairs now.” Nakangiting aya pa nito sa’kin saka nauna ng umakyat ng hagdan.

Leaving me gaping at his retreating back. Too ready to bit off his head now!

T-That jerk!! Akala ko pa naman maiisahan ko na’to! How wrong I was!

“Ah Suzy?”

I glared at him when he called that nang tuluyan na itong makaakyat sa ikalawang palapag.

“What?!” asik ko na rito, ignoring if the few people around who were now throwing us a pry look.

“Oo o hindi man ang sagot mo sa mga tanong kong ‘yon, wala ka pa ring kawala sa’kin. You better watch out for my next move!” Nakangising saad pa nito sabay kindat sa’kin na siyang ikinainis ko pa lalo.
