LCS 11: Yves Vailen Mendoza (Completed)

Chapter 16

HINDI mapirmi ang mga mata ni Rion nang makita ang iba't ibang brand ng tools and equipments for baking. The renovation of the Cafe was still on going and so far so good. Madalas na mag update si Isabella sa kanilang lahat, she suggested to create a group chat pero umayaw ang mga ito. Saying they're busy, mumultuhin lang ang gc.

"Pwede naman na mag online shopping nalang." Yves said while roaming his eyes around.

Rion sighed and walk towards the different types and brands of mixer, she needed two of it, isang handy at isa para sa maramihan. Napasulyap siya sa presyo at agad na napangiwi.

Alam niya na pricey talaga ang mga gamit pang bake, pero kahit hindi sa kanya pera ang gagastusin, parang gusto pa rin niyang tipirin para may maiabot siyang sukli kay Isabella.

Yves wrapped his arm around her shoulders while she's looking for another brand of mixer, 'yong mas mura.

"The first one was better than that, Rion." He commented.

Her eyes bored into him. "Mahal," sagot niya.

"Mahal?" Hindi makapaniwalang tanong nito sa kanya.

Rion nod her head cutely. "Yes, mahal."

His lips twitched and his gripped on her shoulder tighten. Tsaka lang na realize ni Rion ang palitan nila ng salita nang makita ang sales lady n pulang pula ang mukha at parang uod na binudburan ng asin habang nakatingin sa kanilang dalawa ni Yves.

She chewed her bottom lips and balled his hand into fist. Pabiro niyang sinuntok sa tiyan si Yves, pero sa tigas ng tiyan nito, mas nasaktan pa ang kamay niya. Yves chuckled lowly, clearly teasing her, hindi na niya lang 'yon pinansin at kinausap ang sales lady na nakasunod sa kanila para matulungan siyang pumili. Sa huli, bumagsak pa rin siya sa unang mixer na nakita niya. Ayon daw ang best seller ng mga ito.

Kung kanina ay pinagsisihan niyang isinama niya si Yves sa pagbili ng mga gamit dahil sa panay na reklamo nito, but now she's actually thankful she pulled his ass off and bring him with her. Malaking tulong ang kaalaman nito sa mga gamit kusina.

"That's it, ipapa deliver ko nalang sa bahay since sarado ang cafe." Yves said without glancing at her. Panay lang ang tipa nito sa cellphone. "May gusto ka pa bang puntahan? Or you want to go home?" Yves asked lifting his one eyebrow.

Rion tapped his foot against the floor while thinking of a place. Hanggang sa maisip niya ang madalas na kainin nila noong high school student pa siya. She used to keep her allowance for a week, para lang makakain no'n.

"Sa food court tayo!" Rion excitedly said.

Tumango lang si Yves sa kanya tsaka pinagsiklop ang kamay nilang dalawa. Simple gesture from him and her heart was bursting out with joy. Kinagat ni Rion ang pang-ibabang labi at sumunod kay Yves. He's walking like a king, lahat nang mga nadadaanan nila ay kusa nalang tumatabi, even woman and young girls were looking at him with awe.

Sa gwapo ba naman ng kasama niya.

Humigpit ang hawak niya sa kamay ni Yves nang matanaw niya ang ex boyfriend malapit sa Watson store, may kasamang ibang babae. She smiled bitterly when she saw Dave grab the paper bags, at ito na mismo ang nagbitbit, na ni minsan hindi nito nagawa sa kanya.

Her eyes widened when Yves cupped her face and made her face him, pressing his lips against her lips.

"Stop looking at them, I'm jealous." He said. Walang emosyon ang mukha nito, but his eyes were full of hatred.

"I'm sorry," she apologized.

Huminga nang malalim si Rion at hindi na nilingon pa sina Dave. Hindi umimik si Yves sa tabi niya, he let her guide him towards the stall where she wanted to eat. A lopsided grin plastered on her lips, looking at Dave's and his new girl, wala siyang naramdaman na selos, she didn't even felt like crying, katulad noong una niya itong nakita na kasama niya 'yon.
