Iya's Secrets (The Love I Found in You) Completed

Chapter 16: Breathtakingly Beautiful

IYA'S POV:

"Best ang ganda ganda mo! Sigurado akong di ka hihiwalayan ni Rhyle mamaya. Daig mo pa ang model dun sa show mamaya." Ang ingay ni Liz. Natural na wavy ang hair ko but this time nilapatan niya ng plantsa kaya naging straigth at ipinusod sa itaas. Simple lang ang pagkakaayos ng buhok ko ni Liz. Simple lang din ang make up nanilagay niya pero aaminin ko nag iba ang ganda ko. Si Liz ay simple lang din pero hanep din ang ganda.

"Thanks best. I'm sure din na mapapako mamaya ang paningin ni JC sayo. Hahah...." ganti ko sa kanya. Pinandilatan niya ako.

"Hmmm.... huwag mo akong pangunahan.... baka umasa naman itong puso ko. " natawa din ito. "But honestly best? I'm nervous."

"Don't be like that. Ako ang mas dapat kabahan ano." I wear a pink sequence spaghetti strap dress. Tight fitted dress that follow the curves of my body. Excited ako nakinakabahan. Kaya dinadala ko na lang sa biro kay Liz.

"Best? Kanino ka ba kinakabahan?"

"Kanino pa e di kay JC. Syempre siguradong kasama niya GF niya. Iwan best bahala na. Ang show naman ang pupuntahan ko doon, hindi siya.. e ikaw sigurado si ex GF ano?"

"Medyo.... pero bahala na rin. Basta kahit na anong mangyari. Let's have each others side ha."

"Sure best. What are friends for." And we hug each other. Narinig namin ang doorbell.

"Oh, god! Si Rhyle na yata yan. Ako na best ang bubukas para suspense." Lumabas na si Liz. Niligpit ko na ang bag na dadalhin ko at ni Liz. I looked myself in the mirror one more time at lumabas.

RHYLE'S POV

Honestly, I'm not in favor of this idea na dalhin si Iya sa show na iyon. I know It's been a long time and I'm sure of myself na wala na akong feelings para kay Rachelle. We've already met last week and I proved that my feelings for her is plain and I'm happy that we're friends again.

Akala ko I can't live without her dati, and now i thougth hindi oa ako nakamoved on but I'm wrong. I've already moved on. I already have Iya now and I don't know what to do if I will lost her.

That's why, I'm trying to protect her. Her feelings. She's so vulnerable and naive. She's pessimistic at times, overthinking things. Baka kung makarinig siya ng kung ano at mag overeact na naman ito, especially Justin is trying to prove something. I Dont know what's gonna happen sa pagkikita nila.

I press the doorbell button. AFter a minute bumukas ang pinto. Si Liz, yeah I remember na siya pala ang tutulong kay Iya. She smiled at me as I walked in. She looks stunning. I'm sure, tulo laway naman si JC nito. Lately, his so vocal with his feelings with Liz. Kisyo di siya makatulog o gusto niya itong makita. Kawawang JC.

But enough for that, I'm so excited to see Iya. Oh come on.. I can't wait to see her. "Where's Iya?" I impatiently asked.

"Lalabas na siya. Wait lang, I'll just get my bag and call her." Kapapasok lang ni Liz sa kwarto at lumabas si Iya.

Holy... sh****t ... she's breathtakingly beautiful... napanganga ako dun ha. I composed myself habang lumalapit siya. I can't wait to be near her. My nerves were rattling and my heart beats fast. As she's near me I hug her tightly feeling her soft body and her heart beats fast too. Oh god... she smells good too. I can't help but to hug her more tight and whisper to her ears. "Babe you're stunningly beautiful." I'm about to kiss her.

"Thanks Rhyle." She mumbled.

"Ooopps.... stop it.... baka masira ang make up. You know the lipstick and thing.?" Si Liz.

"Oh great. Come on babe?"I look at Iya waiting for a rescue but she just laugh. Oh great babe, stop doing that baka sa kama na lang kita dadalhin.

"She's right Rhyle. Next time na lang. Malelate na tayo." Sang ayun niya while she's still in my arms.

"I can't believe this, pinagtutulungan ninyo ako." I desperately said that.

"Babe! You have all the time to do it but not now, please?" She said, giving me her sweetest smile while she's holding my both cheeks. But I give her a quick kiss. Nagulat siya. Napatawa na lang ako at binitawan siya.

"You're so unbelievable. Ang kulit mo. Ayaw mo talagang magpautang." Nakitawa na rin ito na naiiling.

"I will not.... Admit it... you love it.. it's your fault. " pang aasar ko sa kanya.

"At ako pa ang sinisisi mo?" she's blushing. Oh great I love that.

"Of course, it's you because ang lakas ng dating mo sa akin.. and I can't help myself to kiss you... you know that."

"Hep... tama na nga kayong dalawa umalis na tayo. Nilalanggam na ako sa kasweetan ninyo. Hindi bagay... Baka malate na po tayo." Liz breaking our sisihan mode. Nagkatinginan na lang kami ni Iya at sumunod kay sa kanya.

I hold Iya's hand. It's cold and it's shaking. I can feel na kinakabahan siya kaya I hold it tight, giving her the warmth of my hand.... I give her an assuring look. I want to make her feel that I'm with her and I'm here to protect her. I just hope things would turn out great for us.
