ZAZALAB ONE SHOT STORY

I CHOOSE HIM OVER YOU

Mariin ko'ng hinawakan ang kanyang kamay upang hindi ito makaalis, Were in her office to take a talk. But she still avoiding me.

“Give me 5 minutes  " I begged. She began to fidget but I tighten my grip.

Nagkakilala kami noong summer, sa isla at gabi iyon. A few years back at a friends gathering and since then, I couldn't get her off my mind.

Maganda siya, sobrang ganda hindi lang sa panlabas na anyo.

Ngunit alam ko'ng may boyfriend siya. But she still entertain me when were in island.

Doon ako nagsimulang ligawan siya.

I  tried not to be too obsessive however it became merely impossible.

Hinawakan ko ang kanyang pisngi at tiningnan siya, “Look at me..“ I said, she slightly annoyed that she kept pushing me away. "Do you really not feel the same way I do?" I asked, knowing well she would deny it.

Gaya ng inaasahan ay umiling ito, tinangging wala siyang pag tingin sakin.

I felt it and was sure she did too. The way she vibrated whenever I was near, the way she avoided looking me in the eyes and the way she began to breathe rapidly said it all. I inclined my body closer to hers, "Why are you lying?" I whispered softly. She tried pushing me away but failed miserably.

“Pwedi 'bang pakawalan mo ako, baka may makakita!" she begged hopelessly. Piercing my eyes on her I delicately rubbed the back of my hand on her cheek.

“Mas gugustuhin ko'ng mangyari 'yon..“ I confessed shamelessly. She let out a heavy sigh and swinged my hand off.

"Don't be scare. I'll take care of you" I insisted impatiently. I could tell by her silence that she wanted it just as much as I did. Her expression changed from angry to confused. Although I was being honest, she didn't believe I'd really fallen head over heels for her. I took her hand in mine and slightly squeezed it, "come with me" I pleaded wholeheartedly.

She glared at me incredulous maybe that a guy like me said such things. She suddenly snatched her hand away,

"Tumigil ka na!" she reproached seemingly upset. It was easily perceived how hard she fallen for me too though she'd denied it several times

"Hindi ako katulad ng iba babae, may boyfriend ako!“ she informed me. Clearly she was trying to convince herself more than me that it was true. She stepped away distressed of how evident it was she was lying.

"You really don't feel anything for me then?" I asked desperately. A feigned smile formed on her lips as she locked her eyes with mine. Before she could answer, I scooped her in my arms and placed her against the wall. Her eyes wide open as she gasped for air. I gave her a sincere look before diving myself in for a kiss. She twitched and pushed trying really hard to be released but I was persistent

A few seconds she stopped moving and so did I.

I unlatched my lips from hers and looked at her apologetic yet satisfied. We were both out of breath staring at each other in disbelief.

Her expression was difficult to read and it was probably 'cause she'd confirmed her feeling for me. After a minute of staring silently at each other her eyes begin to get watery.

It was the guilt building up knowing she'd just cheated on her boyfriend physically and emotionally. I smeared away the falling tears with my thumb attempting to redeem my mistake. I was sure I'd lost her forever with this and was ready to let her go. Instead, she gripped the sides of my coat tightly and stared at me with bleary eyes.

I knew then what she meant and kissed her again. This time, she didn't object and follow my lead. We immersed ourselves in satisfaction forgetting about everything and everyone. It was more then the feeling I imagined it to be. It was happiness in the small form of her.

But the sound of doorknob creek, nilingon ko iyon at nakita ang kanyang boyfriend sa salamin. He's outside in the office and waiting to open the door

I looked at her, begging not to leave but she step away. Pinunasan niya ang luha bago magbaba ng tingin.

“Im sorry..“ she walk and run to greet her boyfriend, While me. Im alone and hoping that im the one who's hugging her.
