Get Me Out of Here (Completed)

Chapter 30

Chapter 30

"Armie, you're here!" Tumayo si Naomi at Carl Trey para yakapin ako.

I smiled at them.

Samantha pulled me to sit beside her. They're occupying a large rectangular sofa, kasama nila roon si Gelo at Sean na parehong kaka-graduate lang din at may latin honors katulad ni Dylan.

I looked at my cousin when I felt his stare at me, I smiled. "Congrats, Sean."

He nodded. Umupo siya sa tabi ni Gelo na nasa harap lang din namin. I smiled and congratulated him too.

"Kailan ka pa dumating? O matagal ka nang nandito? Huwag mong sabihing nagtago ka nanaman sa amin?" Sunod-sunod na tanong ni Samantha.

I chuckled. I remember that I hid from them last summer.

Umiling ako. "I arrived just the other day."

Her eyebrows furrowed. "Before the graduation?"

I nodded.

"So you came here for the graduation? Bakit hindi kita nakita kahapon? Sinong kasama mo? At saan ka natulog?" She then looked at Sean curiously.

My cousin chuckled, he shrugged and looked at me cockily before he shook his head. "I don't know anything, baby."

Litong tumingin sa akin si Samantha, nagtatanong ang mga mata. I felt the need to tell her the truth at that moment. Lumingon ako sa kinaroroonan ni Dylan at nakitang abala pa siya sa pakikipag-usap sa mga kakilala.

I sighed. And I thought he's gonna take care of this but I think he forgot that I'm with him. Ayoko man ay alam kong sumasama na ang timpla ng pakiramdam ko.

Napatingin ako sa pinsan ko at napansin ang paninitig nito sa akin. He smiled when I caught him staring, and then he looked at Samantha. "I think my cousin is hungry. Stop asking her questions and let her eat first, baby."

Samantha sighed. "Sorry, akala ko kasi tinaguan mo nanaman kami." She smiled and held my hand.

Nagtawag siya ng waiter para magpahatid ng pagkain.

"Nauna na kaming kumain kasi maaga kami dito. Larry and Xian were here but they left early because of Kian. At hindi ko naman alam na dadating ka, hinintay sana kita. Nagkita kayo sa labas ni Dylan? You were with him earlier.."

Para makaiwas sa mga tanong niya ay tumango nalang ako. I looked at my cousin infront of us who's watching us while drinking wine. He smiled at me and I find it weird. May alam ba siya? Sinabi rin ni Dylan sa kaniya? I sighed.

Hindi nagtagal ay dumating ang pagkain. Mabuti nalang at hindi ako picky eater kahit pa ngayong buntis ako. I started eating while the rest of them are already drinking wine.

Kahit alam kong pinapanood ako ng pinsan ko ay hindi ko mapigilang lingunin si Dylan dahil masyado na itong matagal. Napakurap ako nang nakitang katabi niya na si Ken na nakikipag-usap sa mga kaibigan. I then remembered that he knows about us, nag-iwas tuloy ako agad ng tingin.

"Ang tagal naman ni Dylan, feeling artista naman." Napairap si Samantha.

Gelo and Sean laughed. "Pagbigyan mo na, bigla siyang nawala kahapon kaya ngayon palang siya binabati ng iba."
