CHAPTER FIFTY: SUITORS

All I remember was that he grabbed me by my wrist and out of the restaurant without even having second thoughts, pinapasok niya ako sa loob ng kotse niya dahilan para magulat ako sa actions niya.

I couldn't understand Elijah because he just smirked at Ares too? May problema ba silang dalawa? And is he actually jealous of Elijah? Is he actually serious?

Pumasok siya sa loob ng kotse niya kung nasan din ako, I want to protest to him pero baka mas lalo siyang magalit.

His expressions and the way his muscles tensed sa nangyari, kinda spooked me.

"What did he tell you?" bigla niyang tanong.

I tried to calm myself and just buckled my seatbelt bago ko siya sinagot.

"Just about my family, and about his visit here," I answered.

Medyo nacucurious ako kung may nangyari ba sa kanilang dalawa dati.

I mean, at first mukha naman silang maayos pero si Ares... Ares is just something else right now so it bothers me.

"That's all?" tanong niya ulet, hindi ko pa rin siya tinitingnan.

Tumango ako sa kanya at hinawakan ang bag na dala-dala ko kanina.

I heard him sigh and turned the engine on.

"So, once again... he's playing with me." I heard him say.

Playing? Anong playing? I don't think Elijah would do something like that, he seemed gentle and not someone who plays games with other people.

"Ares..." I spoke.

I want to change the topic para hindi na siya magalit pa.

I just don't like seeing him this mad and pissed. It's so overwhelming, a side of him that I've never seen before.

Is he really that jealous? And with Elijah?

Someone I'm related to?

"Whatever you're thinking, you're wrong. He didn't flirt with me," I said.

He glanced at me for a few seconds and started driving.

He then spoke after, this time, with a calm expression and a calm tone too.

"He's obviously trying to tease me, he's flirting! Of all people! It had to be you!" he exclaimed, his voice raising for every word he spoke.

I can feel his frustration, I took a deep breath and started speaking again.

"Look, obviously... hindi mo pa alam, don't you?" Ako na ang tumingin sa kanya, hinarap ko siya.

"He's related to me, that man is a Dixon."
I sighed after that.

Sana naman ay maintindihan niya ang ibig kong sabihin.

It's disgusting to even think about flirting with someone related to me, and he's just... not my type kahit na hindi ko siya kamag-anak.

"I know that." He answered back.

"Alam ko 'yun, I know that he's a goddamn Dixon and yet he still tried to tease me by flirting with--" hindi ko na siya pinatapos dahil unti-unti na rin akong nagagalit dahil sa pinagsasabi niya.
