Chapter 38
Hindi ko alam kung anong problema ni Ice at mukha siya laging iritado sa driving lessons ko. This is the second Saturday and the last day for my driving course, at pwede na akong magsimula sa behind-the-wheel next week.
Nang natapos ang araw ay nakuha ko ang certificate para sa driving course na natapos ko. Mr. Flores congratulated me at the end of the day. Ngumiti ako sa kaniya at nagpasalamat bago pinuntahan si Ice na naghihintay lang sa labas ng room, nakasimangot maghapon.
Hindi ko na sana papansinin ang pagiging iritable niya pero nang nakita kong ngumiti at bumati sa kaniya si Mr. Flores at hindi niya pinansin ay nairita na rin ako.
"What's your problem?" I asked when he opened the door of his car for me.
Hindi siya sumagot at iminuwestra lang sa akin ang front seat. I rolled my eyes before getting in.
Nang sumakay siya ay agad ko siyang hinarap. "You're being unreasonable, what's wrong with you?"
Nakakunot ang noo niya akong tinignan, "What unreasonable? Put on your seatbelts."
"Mr. Flores smiled at you, you didn't even tried to be polite and you just ignored him!"
I saw his jaw clenched. Tinignan niya ako, this time his whole face looks so sarcastic. Nagulat ako dahil hindi ko alam ang pinagmumulan ng iritasyon niya. Okay naman kami kahapon at nitong mga nakaraang araw ah?
"I don't know him, why will I smile at him huh?"
Umawang ang bibig ko sa gulat sa sinabi niya. "What's your problem?"
"Stop asking and just put on your seatbelts so we can leave," mariin niyang sinabi.
"No! Tell me what's your problem!"
He sighed, "I don't have a problem."
"Then why are you so grumpy?" Pinagtaasan ko siya ng kilay.
Hindi siya sumagot. He looked away instead.
"Ice!"
His jaw clenched once again. This time, hinarap niya ako, seryoso at iritado na rin.
"Fine, I don't like your trainor." He said looking so pissed.
Kumunot ang noo ko, "What?"
He shot his eyebrows sarcastically, "You heard me, that's all. Now let's go home."
He tried to insert the key to the ignition but I stopped him by holding his arm. Tumigil siya at tumingin sa akin.
"Are you jealous?"
Because there's no other reason for him to dislike Mr. Flores unless he is jealous! At hindi ko alam kung anong nakakaselos doon.
He chuckled, "Yeah, I think so.."
And he didn't even deny it!
"What's there to be jealous about? He's a trainor!"
"He's a guy, and you keep on smiling at him, I don't like it!"
I looked at him unbelievably. Hindi ako makapagsalita dahil wala akong alam sabihin. He just can't manage his possessiveness. I remember that he dislikes me hugging his brothers too. Hindi na ako dapat magulat kung ganito rin ang reaksyon niya pero hindi ko mapigilan.
"I don't like any other guys holding you too, I'm sure you know that."
"It was just a shakehand, it's formal!" Giit ko nang naalala ang interaksyon namin ni Mr. Flores kanina.
