Celestaire's POV

I STOOD THERE SHOCK on what Blaze have just said. He's eyes are irritated as he look at the man in front of him. Gulat din ang makikita sa mukha ni Celine habang ang lalaki na nasa harap ay nakangisi lamang.

Ralph suddenly took my hand and pulled me behind him. I'm still shocked. The man's smirk didn't left his lips and he looked at Blaze up and down.

"Boyfriend? Pfft." He laughed and wiped a tear from his eye. Tumaas ang kilay habang may malokong ngisi sa labi. "Man, you don't know who I am."

Blaze rolled his eyes. "You don't know who you are messing with."

Bored na tumingin ang lalaki kay Celine. "Celine, sweetheart.. come to me."

Lalong tinago ni Blaze si Celine sa kanyang likod. "She's not coming with you."

"Blaze--"

"Iya, don't." Saway ni Ralph.

I stayed silent and just watched them. Nangunot noo ng lalaki at tumingin kay Blaze. Tumawa pa siya bago sumeryoso ang mukha niya.

"I'm her suitor and she's coming with me." Sabi nito.

"I'm her boyfriend, she's mine." Sagot ni Blaze.

Celine just looked at the two. No words came out of her mouth. Inis na bumaling ang lalaki kay Celine.

"Sino ba itong gagong ito?! Boyfriend mo?!"

She didn't talk. Blaze tsked. "Wala kang pakialam."

The guy smirked. "Talaga lang?"

"Mag-usap tayo sa ibang araw, Dominico. May mga ginagawa ako." Mahinahong sagot ni Celine.

The guy she called Dominico clenched his jaw. "Magde-date tayo ngayon din. Bakit?! Dahil ba sa lalaking ito?! Sino ba ito sa inaakala niya?!"

Natakot ako sa boses ng lalaki. Napahawak ako nang mahigpit sa braso ni Ralph. He felt I was frightened so he meddled in the tense talk.

"Please, don't shout. Nakakahiya sa mga tao--"

"Wag kang makialam! Manahimik ka diyan!" Sigaw ni Dominico kay Ralph.

"Who the fuck are you to shout at my friend?" Tanong ni Blaze.

Ngumisi ang lalaki. "Hindi mo talaga ako kilala? Well, ako si Dominico Flores. I'm the Mayor's son, so if I were you, you won't mess with me. Got that?" Bumaling na ito kay Celine at hinablot ang kamay. "Tara na, Celine--"

"Don't touch her!" Blaze said and punched the guy.

I gasped when Dominico Flores fell on the floor, holding his jaw. Inis lang nakatingin si Blaze sa lalaki. Agad naman tumayo si Dominico at sinapak si Blaze.

Lalo akong napakapit nang mahigpit kay Ralph. He was about to stop them, when Celine pushed Dominico, causing him to let Blaze go. She's glaring at the guy. Nagulat pa si Dominico at napalitan ng galit ang mga mata.

"Just stop! Ayoko sayo! So please, leave me alone!" Sigaw niya.

Dominico's jaw clenched. "What did you just said?"
