Beauty ruled a Beast

Chapter 17

We're back to normal as if nothing painful happen to us this two rough weeks. I apologize to him and even cried even on my sleep while he kept on telling me that it's fine. That there's more painful than what I did. That what I didn't even stab him deep to his heart. I wonder why he said that. I want to know why but kept my mouth shut about it.

"How's life?" Si Senon.

Now that Sebastian and I are good. He's back to pester me again. Like nothing happen all this time. What's wrong with them? I feel lost.

"Good," tamad kong sabi.

I keep on glancing at my phone. He didn't reply yet. It's been a minute. What took him so long? In a call again? It's fine. But can't he reply to me while talking to that someone?

Senon keep on talking to me while we are in a meeting. I sighed and stand up. I left after telling them to continue without me.

All my jealousy was gone when I saw him sleeping in my couch. Hinubad ko ang suit ko at ipinatong sa kanya. I sit and stare at him when I noticed his phone in the center table. I picked it up without thinking. I know it's bad to used other people's things without their consent. But I'm so curious who he was talking always.

There's only seven number saved on his phone. What caught my attention is the number that has a name love and my love. I pressed the love first and saw my number on it. Namilog ang mata ko dahil don. I didn't know that's my name on his phone.

I'm so f-cking happy and I felt so high because of that. I totally forgot about the real reason why I meddled his personal things.

I called the my love without hesitation and waited for the person in the other line to answer.

I'm not nervous at all. My heart race because of anger. I felt it more the moment the call answered.

"Hey," malamig kong bungad sa sumagot.

The line become silent before I heard a little rustling in the background. I frowned.

"Who's this?" A cold little voice filled my ears.

Natigilan ako saglit ng marealize na lalaki nga ang sumagot. Pero hindi naman ako tanga para hindi malaman na bata 'yon.

Tumikhim ako, "are you the owner of this number?"

I can hear noise from the other line as if the kid is somewhere in the crowd. I can hear that he was walking before the background become silent.

"Where are you?" Tanong ko. Hindi na mapakali. I felt excited for some reason.

Sebastian's in front of me but because he's in deep sleep. I know he won't hear me. I felt sorry for using his phone but I can't stop my curiosity. It's my luck that he didn't sleep well last night. He's a light sleeper. One noise and he'll wake up.

He'll get mad if he find out about this but well whatever. I'll accept his cute madness.

"I'm at school," malamig at kalmado niyang sagot.

I can feel the coldness of his voice. I can't believe there's a kid who doesn't sound cheerful.

"I'm sorry. Am I disturbing you?" I bit my lower lips.

"Why do you have my mama's phone? Where is she?" Tanong niya pabalik.

Naestatwa ako dahil sa sinabi niya at hindi agad nakaimik.

What he said stock on my mind. He called him mama. He has a kid? Why he didn't told me? He thought I won't accept it?

Fuck. And here I am getting all jealous with the person he always talked to whenever I wasn't around. It's just a kid, for fuck sake. His son, to be exact.
