Chiara

"Gab. Gabriel Mercado."

Ow, the architect.

"Sab told me you were expecting my call."

There was something flirtatious with his speaking voice.

Kusang lumayo si Inigo sa akin, giving me my private space when he realized it was not Charles. Sumandal siya sa wall alongside their guestroom while I stood opposite to him.

"Ow, hi. Yes I do. This is about Jiselle Chiara Escapes, I am not sure if you've heard of it already."

I could imagine an invisible nod on the other line as he answered. "Of course, the biggest business venture in Santa Isabel. And how would I help the princess of the Kims?"

Nakatayo si Inigo sa tapat ko pero nakatingin lang siya sa mga paa niya, maybe not interested on our talk. Buti nalang.

Hindi pa niya dapat malaman.

"May icoconsult lang sana ako for second opinion. I wanted to check your availability, I was hoping the soonest sana. There are plans that I need you to check if feasible and possible for JCE and I need a pair of good eye to check on that."

He gave a subtle laugh on the other end.

"I am taking that good eye part as a compliment. Are you free on Sunday, lunch. I'll hand over your wedding invitation as well."

"I'm fine with that. You can message me the details. Thank you for your time." Me almost saying my goodbye.

"Nice talking to you Miss Kim. I am looking forward to meet you. Sab said things about you."

"Ow talaga, I hope just the good ones."

Inigo lifted his head with a lifted eyebrow.

Tumawa ang nasa kabilang linya.

"I'll let you know once we met. Excited to see you on Sunday."

He is surely flirting.

"Thank you again. Bye." I ended the call, avoiding it to prolong further.

"Done?" Tanong ni Inigo ng humakbang siya palapit.

"Hindi ka magtatanong kung sino?" Tanong ko sa kanya. Marahan lang siyang umiling.

"Nope."

Buti naman hindi na siya nagtanong but a part of me wants to see....

... a jealous Inigo.

Usually ako yung nasa dragon stages of jealousy and not him.

Umakbay siya sa akin ng naglakad na ako sa direksyon ng kwarto niya.

"So, start na natin yung 5 year throwback moments mo?" He asked cheerfully. Malakas na siko sa tagiliran ang binigay ko at humakbang ako ng mas mabilis para maiwan siya. "Magpapalit lang akong damit, magluluto na akong dinner." Sigaw ko sa kanya.

Mabilis siyang nakahabol hanggang nasa pinto na kami mg kwarto niya.

"Do you need a helping hand?"

Who needs a helping hand sa pagpapalit ng damit?

"Kaya kong magbihis mag - isa." I was about to shut the door ng pigilan niya yun ng kamay niya.

"Bat ang active ng naughty cells mo today, helping hand sa pagluluto tinatanong ko, hindi sa pagbibihis." Tatawa tawa pa ang walanghiya sa pang aasar sa akin.

"Diyan ka lang, wag kang papasok!!!

Bakit ang horny ko today? Anong meron hormones?
