Nang hindi gumalaw ang binata ay kusa siyang tumingkayad at inabot ang labi nito.
Pero ganoon na lamang ang pagkakapahiya niya ng umiwas ang binata.
Claudia Beatrix, you're such a whore!
Shit. That was embarrassing. Nagawa ba talaga niya 'yun? Umiwas ba talaga ng binata? Bakit? Why?
"S-sorry..." Her cheeks reddened in shame.
Tila gusto na niyang umalis pero pakiramdam niya mas lalo lang nakakahiya kung tatakbo siya palayo.
"What's the sudden change of mind, Miss Scientist? I thought you don't want me near you because I'm such a flirt?" He asked mockingly.
Kumuyom ang kamao niya. Her jaw clenched and fixed her specs.
"You know what? Nagsasayang lang ako ng enerhiya para hanapin ka. You just proved me right that you're such a jerk." Palatal niya sabay talikod dito.
Her chest tightened. She's not a cry baby at lalong hindi siya sensitive but what just happened is such a pride, dignity and ego crushing! Nakakahiya ang pagtanggi nito!
Or maybe you're just so confident, Claudia?
A strong hold held her arm that made her stop walking. Nakasunod na pala ang binata sa kanya.
Akmang bubulyawan niya ito ng marahan siya nitong hinila sa bewang palapit saka nilapit ang mukha at hinalikan siya sa labi.
Her breathing hitch in surprised. Her primary reaction is to push him but upon recalling that she needed his kiss ay kusang pumikit ang kanyang mata.
Base on her observation, recently she was being not herself. Her hypothesis is that she was not being herself because of his kiss, it was all started when he kissed her. And now, she wants to find out if she'll be back on her old self upon kissing him again.
"Stop spacing out, love. Open your mouth.." He muttered.
Slowly, she open her mouth letting his tongue played with her. Napasinghap siya at napakapit sa balikat nito. She tried to move her lips just like what he did. She mimicked his lips' movement that make him groaned. Humigpit rin ang pagkayakap nito sa kanyang bewang.
He taste like mint, due to his cigar. She should be disgusted, ayaw niya ng naninigarilyo but why does she find him so hot? Tila mas nagutuhan niya ang halik nito, lalo na't nalasahan niya ang tamis ng labi nito.
"School's not place for making out but I'm blind anyways."
Agad niyang naitulak si Hinx sa gulat at napalingon sa gilid nila.
And to her horror, it's the university's dean, Mr. Ace Benjamin!
"S-sir!" Kinakabahang bati niya at napa-bow ng wala sa oras.
He chuckled and look at Hinx who just seems so calm unlike her whose mind went havoc.
"Pinabantayan lang kita sa labas dahil may itinago ako sa loob but...Tsk. Tsk. Make an exception to the university's gem, Hinx." Naiiling na ani nito at napailing sabay tapik sa balikat ng pamangkin.
Anong ibig sabihin ni Mr. Benjamin?
Hinx face become serious, naanigan niya ng galit ang mata nito.
"She's different, Tito. Don't talk to her like that." Maypagpipigil sa boses nito pero halata ang galit.
"Oh, my bad. I apologized. Tho, that's not what I mean. Alam kong hindi naman tulad si Claudia sa mga...babae mo, it just that I don't want her to be your next target."
