Tilting the Hourglass

Chapter 9

"Auntie! Alis na ako!" I shouted for Auntie to hear as I grab my stuff.

"Kung hindi ka uuwi, siguraduhin mong safe ka with him!" She shouted back while watching Netflix's Ginny and Georgia. I heard her cuss while watching the show. Galit na galit siya sa misogynistic tone ng show pero ayaw niyang tigilan kasi gusto niya napapanood si Georgia. Siya lang nagdadala ng show eh.

"Auntie! Uuwi ako!!" I scrunched my nose at what she said as I headed outside without waiting for her to tease me more.

She knows that I'll be hanging with Aron tonight and she's giving me her support. Gusto pa niya ay papasukin ko si Aron sa bahay eh hindi naman kami para ipakilala ko siya.

I spotted his car and immediately went inside. He's wearing a black and white stripe shirt, jeans and nike shoes. Mukha at amoy siyang mabango!

"Nakaka-gwapo talaga sa lalaki ang nakarelo." I told him as I tapped his black wristwatch.

"Gwapo naman ako kahit walang relo ah?" He said before flashing me a grin.

"Kapal mo." I said as I pulled his head and kissed him full on the mouth.

He was taken aback at first but he started to deepen the kiss as he reached out to grab my neck.

This is how we are right now. No feelings involved kaya wala man sakin noong sinabi sakin na playboy siya. So what? I'm chasing his physical warmth at alam ko naman na wala akong panahon for any emotional paradox.

I let out a small moan when he stopped kissing me on the mouth and started kissing my ear, He nibbled on it a bit before going down to my neck.

I was holding my breath while leaning my back to give him more access when I felt him suck on it. I gasped and hit his head.

"Tangina!" He protested while scratching the part where I hit him. "What's that for??" Cool niyang tugon.

I checked my neck on the rearview of his car and saw the pinkish spot he marked. "Anong what's that for? Look at what you did!" I angrily said while pointing to my neck.

He looked at me then chuckled sexily. "Not my fault. Nakakagigil ka."

My eyes widened at what he said. "Ohmygosh! Your mouth!" Sambit ko at narinig ko naman siyang tumawa. "Just drive! Geez!" I turned my attention to the window when he tried to poke my waist.

"Yes, Madam." He said, did a salute and started driving.

We're on the way to the club dahil gusto daw nitong isa na mag chill since stressed daw siya sa school. Stressful nga naman kapag graduating student na, hindi lang halata sa akin dahil lagi akong maganda.

I was going through my socials when my stomach suddenly rumbled, Aron gave me a side eye so I reached out for a mint candy inside my purse, opened and ate it.

"Sa may Revel nalang ako mag order ng finger food. Hindi naman ako gutom." I defensively said.

"Ako gutom." Tipid na sagot ni Aron pagkatapos ay pinasok ang sasakyan sa drive-thru ng starbucks. "What do you want?" He asked casually.

"Hmmm." I looked at the menu "Hbiscus tea and Everything Bagel." I answered him.

He rolled his eyes and told the staff his order. I picked up two hibiscus tea, everything bagel, which is my order, penne pesto, and blueberry cheesecake.

"Sobra naman ata pagkagutom mo?" I blurted out what was on my mind while we proceeded to the counter. He just shrugged his shoulders in return.

When we got our orders, he gave me my drink, the bagel, the pasta and the cheesecake----
