"Kung mang-aakit ka, Pwede bang sa'kin ulit?" (Completed)

Chapter 10

"Aray ha!"

Kamuntikan pang mabagsak ang cellphone ko ng bigla akong batukan ni Zeleste habang nag-iisip kung anong sasabihin ko kay Bry.

"Isang oras kanang naka tingin sa cellphone mo oi, Bitaw-bitaw." Pang- iinis niya.

"Paki-alam mo ba! Palibhasa pareho kayo ni nanay Yeji puro trabaho ang inaatupag. Landi-landi din oi!" Depensa ko kaya napataas ang kilay niya.

"Kung makapagsalita parang isa lang nilalandi mo, ah, Ilan ba ngayon mari?"

"Isa lang." Sabi ko.

"Di nga? Yung totoo,"

"Gaga, Isa nga lang! Ayan oh!" Pinakita ko sa kanya ang screen ng cellphone ko kung saan nakabukas ang account ni Bry sa instagram na kakagawa lang kagabi.

"Joined Yesterday. Waw," Pagbasa niya.

"See? Isang hot professor, Dj, Bassist at music teacher lang naman ang nilalandi ko ngayon." Pagmamalaki ko.

She crossed her both hands. "How long will it last this time? 1 month? 2 months? Alam kung magsasawa kadin jan, Alam ko ugali mo ah, Umayos ka De Vera."

"Sa lalaking to? Kaya kung itaya yung buong lifetime ko malandi ko lang to', Chour!" Pagbibiro ko.

"Ewan ko sayo. Wag ka lang gumawa ng–––"

"Ikakadamay ko." I cutted her. "Alam ko na yang linya mo officer, Kabisadong kabisado."

I visited Yeji on her ongoing firm earlier kaya dumeretso nalang ako sa bahay ni Zeleste. Yeji's right now firm is a bit small because the construction is still ongoing. I really admire her the last she took a case. She decided to defend a criminal due to her boss and everyone thought that she will win the case no matter what happen. Everyone sees her as 'No mercy for money lawyer', So everyone expect her to be a cheater for money. They didn't even know her principles.

Yeji is a type of woman who stand on justice, She is not just a normal lawyer at all. She defended her client but with a twist. At the end, After losing her first case,  She resigned on the firm and build her own firm after.

"Napadalaw ka?" bungad agad saakin ni Luca.

"Bakit bawal?" I tried not be readable.

Napasingkit agad ang mata niya. "Suspicious. Hindi mo'ko pupuntahan sa trabaho kung wala kang kailangan. At this hour, You are probably on your bar or on a spa."

"Matinik ka talaga," I whispered.

"So, Ano nga? Malapit na matapos break time ko." She crossed her hand over her chest.

"Pwede mo bang tanungin si Cameron kung anong paboritong pagkain ni Bry!?" Dere-deretso kung sabi.

She gave me a teasing smile immediately while raising her brows. Nakakainis! Hindi naman kasi ako ganito, I have my own ways on getting a guy pero iba to ngayon noh. Baka ako pa yung bumigay....ng diko nalalaman.

"Wala nabang effect yung '1000 ways of getting a guy by Xyra Xiomora De Vera', huh, Xyra?" pang iinis niya.

I took a deep breath at umiwas pa ng tingin. "This guy is different...."

"Halata naman. Tingnan mo nga sarili mo, oh, Dati kung may gusto kang makuha....nakukuha mo agad without our help or advices. But look at you now, Asking me...a strange favor." She said, Acting like she's very surprise.
