"It hurts when you have someone in your heart, but can't have them in your arms."
Chapter 2
Americ's POV
"Where's my earpiece?" I asked Apollo who is currently lying comfortably in my bed.
"There," He pointed at the side table. Umikot ako sa kama para kunin ang earpiece na iyon at isinuot ng maayos sa aking tenga, baka mahulog or lumuwag mamaya.
"Oy! Bumangon ka nga diyan kakalaba ko lang ng punda at kumot na 'yan." He just looked at me like I'm the most impossible person in the world.
"Excuse me? I'm the one who did the laundry this week. Don't argue with me sis," He has the nerve to shake his head and roll his eyes on me and continue typing and scrolling into his phone.
"Excuse me too, that was our clothes and you're the one assigned to do that." I stated as a matter of fact, dahil siya naman talaga ang nakatoka sa paglalaba ngayong week. Hindi kasama doon ang punda at mga kumot.
I really hate doing chores in the house that's why I'm making this a big thing.
"Can you please stop? Dali nalang dito I will show you some abs." I rolled my eyes because of how high his brows reached when he said those things. Malandi talaga.
"Don't me girl, May tinatago ka ding landi kaya dali na! Madaming nag-chat sa akin kanina, super hot and yummy." He forcefully grabbed me into the bed before positioning his phone infront of us.
Napataas ang kilay ko dahil sa mga pictures ng nag-gwa-gwapuhang lalaki sa instagram niya. Halos lumuwa ang mata ko dahil sa hubo't hubad na pang-itaas na katawan ng mga ito.
"See, 'eto yung ka-chat ko kagabi. Super hot sis! Diyusko! Mahihimatay na 'ata ako sa mga pictures na sinend niya." Napalingon ako sa kanya na halos tumirik na ang mata.
I snatched his phone away and looked at that man. Well just like what he said, medyo may tinatago akong kalandian kaya pangatawanan na natin.
"May bet ako diyan para sa'yo sis. Here let me show you," I smirk and looked at him before lending him his phone, sumiksik ako sa tabi niya upang panadoorin siya sa paghahanap sa lalaking sinasabi niya.
"Woah!" Napahawak ako sa aking panga sa sobrang pagkabigla. This man is gorgeous. "What's his name? Is he single? Baka engaged na yan ha? Ayaw kong sugudin ng babae one day."
I looked at Apollo's face who is now looking at me like I'm some kind of threat to him.
"You're judging my matchmaking ability? Siyempre single yan, Irerecommend ba naman kita sa may sabit. Takot ko nalang kapag nakipagsabunutan ka sa public-- well makipagbug-bugan pala." He shook his head before changing the man's photo, I got to see more of his hardness--I mean abs.
"Here, look at this. 'Eto pa oh?" We continue scrolling his phone at dahil malandi kami pareho ay napaptili na lamang kami kapag may iba kaming nakikita at naiisip. That's for us to keep and for you to realize.
We look like some teenage girl fangirling over some man's photo and Apollo should take all the blame, mas malandi sa akin 'yang bakla na 'yan eh.
"Hey you two, what are you doing?" Because of my reflexes and the man's familiar voice ay naitapon ko sa ibaba ng kama ang phone ni apollo.
"What the heck girl! Kakabili ko lang niyan nu'ng isang araw!" Apollo exclaimed while trying to reach his phone on the ground.
Sinamaan ko naman siya ng tingin dahil hindi niya 'ata napansin na si thorny ang pumasok. Apollo looked at me in disbelief.
