Psycho Series #1: Chasing His Obsession

Chapter 12

It's four in the morning but I am already awake, this is my always routine. I'll refresh my mind to my upcoming lesson to each subject I had, my mind exercise indeed.

Suot-suot ko ang reading glass, tutok sa mga notes ko. Pero nawala ako sa pagfo-focus nang marinig ang long couch dahil umusod ito, do'n kasi siya nakahiga ngayon. I can see how tremble he is, manipis lang kasi ang kumot niya hindi katulad ng nasa kama niya.

Inalis ko ang comforter sa katawan, tahimik at maingat na hindi makagawa ng ingay sa kama, nang makalapit ako dito, saglit ko pa siyang tinitigan.

I squat beside him and put the comforter on him. "Thank you..." I mouthed then smile.

Bago bumalik sa kama, sinuot ko muna ang makapal na hoodie. When I sitted, I gaze at him, looking at him throughly.

I'm really thankfully that I met him.

...

Suot-suot ko na ang uniform ko, nakapagayos na ng buhok at mukha. I'm ready to go, but this man is still on the bathroom.

I crossed my legs, sitting on the tip of bed. Later on, he came out.

"Bilisan mo nga dyan, nagugutom na ako." I said, annoyed.

Masakit ang ulo ko ngayon kaya pasensyahan kung masungitan ko siya.

"Bumaba ka nalang do'n, don't wait for me!" Humahangos na ani nito

Umirap ako sa inis at tumayo na ng tuluyan. Naglakad ako palapit sa puwesto nito, hindi pinansin ang pagbilis nang tibok ng puso. He's topless for damn sake! May suot na itong black slocks at kakasuot pa lamang ng puting polo niya.

Nang mamali ito ng pagbubutones dahil sa pagmamadali, walang sabi na lumapit pa sa kanya at tumigil sa harap. Ang tatlong nabutones na niya ay tinanggal kong muli, habang nakatingin sa kanyang mata.

He didn't react or say anything, he fight against my eyes.

"Pag sinabi kong gutom na ako, gutom na ako." Mariin na ani ko, hinila ko ang laylayan ng polo niya kaya't napalapit pa 'to lalo sakin. Still no react. I started to buttoned his polo. "Bakit hindi ka nagising ng maaga?"

He bit gaze out then gaze on me again, he's thinking of reason. "I forgot to alarm my phone." He answered

Hindi ko napigilan matawa. "You alarmed your phone, I was staring at you for whole two hours..." I panicked when I realized what I've said. "I-I mean, I was reviewing some lessons and I can't stop gazing at you kasi ang loud mo! You snoring!"

Naging mabagal ang pagkurba ng ngisi sa labi niya. "Am I loud or just good-looking guy so you can't stop gazing at me? Am I right, Savannah?" He handed his necktie to me

I scoffs in disbelief. I snake his necktie on his neck and pull him, he didn't flinch and I can see he's liking what I am doing or just teasing me again.

"That's not the real topic here." I firmly said. I started to tie his necktie. "You've lie again. You didn't forget the alarm, your alarm is irritating so tell me why you said that you forgot to put an alarm?"

He immediately looked away. "Then, I lied. That's not a big deal." He simple said.

Sinagad ko ang necktie niya kaya't napaubo ito kasabay ng pagbaling sakin. "To me, It is. I hate liars, Lawson."

...

"Sav, talaga bang okay ka lang? Grabe 'yung kaba at takot ko no'ng nalaman ko na nasaksak ka. Dapat nagpahinga ka nalang muna sa inyo eh, tutulungan naman kita makahabol."
