A Line Between Us

Chapter 3

"Huh?!" Mas naguguluhang sabi ko.

Who in their right mind would go to Baguio with someone you just met! Nababaliw na yata ang isang 'to.

Hindi naman sa ayaw ko siya kasama.

In fact, he's doing me a favor. Eme!

"Why?" His brows furrowed, "You don't want to go with me?" He asked.

Agad akong umiling, "It's just that... it may be a hassle for you. Parang ang dami mo nang nagagawang favor for me." I laughed.

Pinadaan niya ang kamay niya sa buhok at binasa ang pang ibabang labi. Damn him.

"It's okay, Aurora. Seriously. Don't worry about it." He assured me.

"Okay, fine! Sabi mo 'yan, ah!" I said and then started eating my food.

"Yes, don't worry about it." He smiled, "So, are you in the same school and course with Solana?"

Tumango ako, "Oo, pero hindi kami blockmates, eh. Sayang nga. Pero okay lang din siguro naisip ni Lord na baka sawa na kami sa mukha ng isa't-isa since high school pa lang e magkadikit na kami." Tuloy-tuloy na sabi ko sakaniya.

I saw the amused look on his face while he was staring and listening to me as I talk.

"Ikaw? Where do you study?" I asked him.

"I studied architecture in France." He said.

My mouth formed into an "oh". So that's why hindi ko siya nakikita during family events or gatherings nila Solana. Napatango-tango ako. Edi magaling pala 'to sa arts?

Plus pogi points!

Kinagat ko ang labi ko at nagiwas ng tingin sa naisip. God, get a grip, Renee! Uminom ako ng tubig bago uli humarap sakaniya.

"So you plan to work here sa Pilipinas as an architect and hindi sa France?" I arched my brow.

He shook his head and my brows furrowed. So hindi siya mag wo-work dito at babalik siya sa France?

I think he noticed the confusion on my face kaya naman ay nagsalita uli siya.

"I'm planning to pursue my modeling career here or maybe try acting again." He shrugged.

Nanlaki ang mata ko. So he was a model in France?! So that explains his aura! Mukha nga talaga siyang model with his physique and that face? Jusko, kung dito na siya magiging model at mag artista ay paniguradong makakahakot agad siya ng fans.

"Wow! Go mo 'yan! Support kita. Gusto mo ako ang number one fan mo at ako na rin ang maging president ng fansclub mo, eh." I said and then gave him a thumbs up.
