Hating Him (COMPLETED)

Chapter 17

Jealousy? What jealousy? 

I was so confused at what he had said. Nagseselos siya, bakit? May gusto siya sa akin? May gusto siya sa isang pangit? Cause I know I made sure he saw me as nerd Sofia and not Eleanor. 

Lumingon ako kay Harden na busy na ngayon with his laptop. After cuddling me kahit panay ang alis ko sa mahigpit niyang yakap, he didn't let me. He just let me go when twenty minutes passed and he seemed calm. Nakakabobo na siya for fvck sake! 

I badly wanted to ask him what was that for? Pero natatakot ako sa pwede niyang sabihin. Don't text other men? Kaya pala palaging deleted ang number ni Logan dahil nababasa niya convo namin? Why would he read it then? Cellphone niya? Siya may ari? Shit siya!

For the second time around deleted ang number ni Logan at hindi ko man lang nae-memorize. Kung hindi siya mag text ulit, hindi ko na siya mati-text pa. Let just hope Harden didn't text him bad things. 

I glared at him when he glanced at me. Naramdaman niya siguro ang matatalim kong titig sa kanya. Pero mas lalo pa akong nainis when I saw him smirked. He let out an audible laugh before he continued typing on his laptop. 

What's in Sophia that made him like me? Baka naman plano niya ito? He's a jerk after all. Baka nga plano niya ito para mas lalo pa akong pahirapan. So how much more pa kapag nalaman niyang ako yong babae na tinutukoy nila? Just merely thinking he would know at some point that the girl he was looking for is me made me tremble. Kaya lagi kong winawala sa isip ko dahil bigla bigla na lang bumibilis ang puso ko kapag naalala kong isa pala akong villain sa kanila. 

This is what Mom wants. I just wonder what happened in their company at biglang nagkakaganito bigla. Usually, Dad would not involve us, me and Edward with his work pero bakit involve na lang ako bigla? And worse, para mapalapit kay Harden. And then nalaman ko pa na para gamitin ko siya? Para gamitin saan? 

With all my thoughts, naramdaman ko na lang na bumibigat ang talukap ng mata ko. I put my head on the table at doon na nakatulog. 

When I wake up, hindi na ako nakaupo sa labas. I felt my back on a soft surface at hindi rin mahangin. Bumangon ako, and then my mind couldn't process what I'm seeing. Napatitig ako sa wig ko, malaking eyeglasses ko at ang mahabang coat ko na nakapatong sa bandang exit ng tent. I'm wondering why it's there? Diba dapat suot ko yon? 

I looked at myself at nanlaki ang mata nang makitang naka short denim ako at naka white crop top. My usual outfit when I'm Eleanor. Pero the thing that made me shocked was the hands in my tummy. Binalingan ko ang may ari non at nakitang si Harden. I then realized that he was probably hugging me while I'm asleep. And that only means he knows my facade! Oh my gosh! 

Biglang bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko. Agad kong tinanggal ang kamay niya sa tiyan ko. That made him groaned at nagising ko siguro. I saw him scowled as he opened his eyes. Agad itong tumama sa akin and swear mag tumindi pa ang kaba ko. 

I was not able to speak. Kaya nataranta na lang akong gumapang paalis sana ng tent when Harden suddenly hold my waist at saka ako hinatak sa kanya. Napakandong ako sa kanya and his hands snake around me, holding me to him. Napaawang ang labi ko sa closeness namin. And Shit lang, he was topless. Naka boxer lang din siya for fvck sake! 

"Let's sleep more," he huskily said. Namumungay ang mata niya dahil sa kakagising lang niya. Napaawang ang labi ko. I tried pushing him and tried standing pero hinigit niya ulit ako at napaupo sa kandungan niya. 

"What the hell, Harden! Pakawalan mo nga ako!" 

He didn't listen. He snuck his head on my neck, tightened his hold on me and tried probably to sleep again sa ganon naming posisyon. It didn't help that he was topless.
