#1:That Heartless Woman (Y.JW)

THW 25

Jungwon's Pov

Wala pa si maldita ah.Sabi ni Jay hyung kasama daw si Sunghoon na late ngayon sa theater class.Sometimes they're too early to come here and now I think they're going to be late.Hindi pa rin ba nakakamove on si Astrid sa nangyari kagabi?Hope she's in the mood later because if not?Well ako nanaman ang makikita niyang pagbubuntungan ng galit.

While waiting to her near at the gate,I saw a familiar car na dineretso sa parking lot and I saw Sunghoon hyung's silhouette.Binuksan nito ang windshield then made a silly face habang nakayukong tulog si Astrid sakaniyang tabi.

I made a silly face to Sunghoon hyung but then Astrid suddenly gaze at me and I think she thought na siya ang inaasar ko dahil sa paniningkit ng mga mata nitong nakatingin saakin.

I covered my face making a small hole between my hands to peek at her hanggang sa makita ko ang tuluyan na paghinto nito sa parking lot.

What the heeeck?!

Is she staring at me?

Should I run?

Lumabas ito ng sasakyan and she started to get on my place while still looking at me.I guess she's already judging my whole personality!

"N-no! it's not for you!yah!Sunghoon hyung!Ikaw nga magsabi na hindi sya yung dinidilaan ko!Ikaw yun eh!"I said explaining what happened while she's in the car.I look at Sunghoon hyung at sinenyasan syang magsalita.

"Bahala ka dyan!"Sunghoon hyung replied bago kami lagpasan.

WHAT?!

Here she is staring at me with those judging eyes habang ako naman ang tumingin sa malayo trying to be cool infront of her.

"Ano nanaman maldita?"

"cute"maikli nitong sagot bago ako alisan ng hindi man lang nag iiwan ng kahit anong reaksyon sa sinabi niya.Napahawak ako sa magkabila kong pisngi dahil sa biglang pag-init nito.

"H-hoy!"I was about to say something but when she turned around to face me tinanguan nya akong sumunod sakanya.

"Pagong kaba?Bakit ba ang kupad mong kumilos Yang Jungwon?"

"Oh!look who's baaaack?! How's your Christmas day?"nilagpasan lang ni Astrid ang pagbati sakaniya ni Rebecca but Rebecca still follow us.She looked at me at sya namang agad kong inilingan wala ba syang tanda kay Astrid?

"Don't worry Jungwon!"she suddenly stretch her arms to reach my hand to grab me but then Astrid hold my left arm.

"Why Astrid?May pupuntahan lang naman kami ni Jungwon sandali?"her voice is kinda---argh bakit nya ba iniipit yung boses nya?nang-aasar ba sya?

"Do you want me to stab your neck?"sandaling napalaki ang mata ni Rebecca after what Astrid have said to her ngunit agad din namang nagbago ang ekspresyon so that,hindi mahalata ni Astrid ang pagkatakot niya.Kahit ako rin naman siguro but too bad Astrid.For me,I know she can't

"So you're a murderer now?"

"Kung ikaw lang din naman ang papatayin ko bakit hindi?"sandali silang nagkatitigan until si Rebecca na mismo ang umiwas.

"Release your hand on him"malamig na tono ng boses ang pumasok saaking mga tainga.

Rebecca raised her hands near at her chest while smirking.

"Chill,Astrid"

"And leave us alone"lumayo ng kaunti si Rebecca from us tsaka naman ako hinatak ni Astrid sa tabi niya.

"Good dog"Rebecca's eyes widened in surprised and her mouth was half gaped away.

I look at Astrid's face and she was smiling on Rebecca ng kumakaway-kaway pa habang nakangiti.

"Siguro you have mental disorder noh?Do you have multiple personalities?"

"Do you want to go with her?"

Sinarado ko na lamang ang aking bibig na animo'y may zipper na nakakabit sa labi.

Habang tahimik na naglalakad papasok ng room,Astrid looks at me at bahagyang tumingin sa likuran dahilan upang tuluyan akong mapalingon roon.I saw Rebecca leaning on the hallway's wall while looking at her nails.

I noticed Astrid's pace quicken as a grin slowly carved into her lips.

What is this woman thinking again?

"Oh!--I forgot my tumbler..."Astrid stopped walking as she peered inside her bag.

"Eh? nakalimutan mo?May tubig naman ako dito share nalang tayo?"

"No thanks,Jungwon I can buy one in the cafeteria."then she smiled.

What?

"Place your arms over my shoulders!"bulong nito sakin while we're walking.

"H-huh?Bakit?"Why is she making me do that thing?She really doesn't want me to place my arm on her shoulder.

"Just.do.it!"I immediately did and after that thing my hair skin stood up when she wrapped her left hands around my waist.

"Are you craving huh?"bulong na tanong ko sakaniya.

"Craving for what?"bulong na sagot nito saakin.I smirked on her bilang pangasar at sya naman tong pasikreto akong kinurot sa tagiliran.

"Can you just act like you're---"when we turned the hallway,we met Jay hyung and Jake who dropped the folder he was holding when we saw the two of us sticking together like this.

Astrid's eyes widened in surprised and suddenly pushed me away bago niya lagpasan sina Jay-hyung.I heard someone giggled at the back which is Rebecca.

Binigyan nila ako ng nakalolokong ngiti habang ako naman itong nagkakamot ng batok bago sila lagpasan.

"It's not what you think,hyung.Bye-bye!"I said at kumaway sakanila ng hindi nakatingin.My heart was beating so fast when they saw us.Argh!no!bakit ba kase ako pumayag sa kalokohan ni Astrid ni hindi ko nga alam kung para saan 'yon.

"Jungwon-ah binata kana!"sigaw ni Jay hyung na ramdam kong abot-tainga ang ngiti while he's talking.

"Nice one Jungwon!you tamed the tiger!"tinakpan ko ang magkabila kong tenga while closing my eyes.I sighed in relief ng tumunog ang school bell nang saktong nasa pintuan na ako ng room.

Astrid's Pov

No! It's not what they think!I was trying to fool Rebecca!What if she likes Jungwon right?So syempre she will confess to Jungwon but sadly Jungwon doesn't like her diba?I mean,hindi naman talaga siya gusto ni Jungwon!

Argh!bakit ako kinakabahan ng ganito? I was just trying to fool Rebecca lang naman?

That's right,Astrid!Wala naman yung pag-akbay na yon it was just an act right?right?

Pag nagtanong sila if what was that for? I'll tell them that I'm just fooling around.Ganon dapat Astrid there's nothing wrong with that.You and Jungwon are friends so there's nothing wrong with that.

*Riiiiiiiiing* the school bell rang napaangat ako ng tingin sa taong nasa pinto and it's Jungwon.Our eyes met then I raise my left eyebrow while crossing my arm on him.

"Panget mo"sabi nito sakin habang nakasimangot.

"T-tigas ng mukha mo ah!"He was about to sit behind me but I used my legs to block him so he could not pass.

"Do you like me huh?"diretso nitong sabi that cause me para maningkit ang mga mata kong nakatingin sakaniya.

"Kapal ng mukha mo!I just want you to sit beside me."

"And why?"

"You know what?forget it"

"Joke only!mamaya na kase!"

"So how was your short date?"napalingon kami Kay Rebecca who's playing with her hair using her index finger.

"You fool."
