Girlfriend? For Hire! [BL]

Chapter 46

Aiden's Point of View

Palabas na sana ako ng kwarto para kausapin si Luca nang may bigla akong maalala. Napahinto ako saglit at napaisip bigla.

Gosh, muntik ko na malimutan, kailangan ko na talaga maghanap ng matitirhan habang narito pa si Luca para may kasama ako mag-impake. Gusto ko sana sa malapit sa mall, hospital and convenient store para hindi masyadong hassle kung sakali na may kailanganin ako bigla. Agad akong napatakip ng ilong paglabas ko ng kwarto. May nasusunog ba? Bakit ang usok dito?

"Oh, you're awake?" I know it was Luca who asked. Siya lang naman ang kasama ko rito.

I waved my hand in the air to blow the smoke away, while my other hand was covering my nose. What the heck is this one doing, and why is there suddenly smoke here?

"Why is there smoke? Is something burning?" Sunod-sunod na tanong ko. Nang humupa na ang usok sa harap ko ay nakita ko siyang nakatayo sa kitchen habang may hawak na sandok. "What are you doing there?" Pahabol kong tanong.

Don't tell me... He tried to cook? What's gotten into this guy? Has he lost his sanity? Does he know how to cook?

Aiden, isn't it obvious? The house is full of smoke because of the thing in the kitchen. That said, he doesn't know how to cook!

"Uh, I got bored, so I tried mimicking a dish in a magazine," he explained, bowing his head and looking at the magazine next to him. "But I don't think I imitated it," he added, before looking back at me.

Napapikit na lamang ako at napailing, hindi makapaniwala sa narinig. Hindi pala mabuti na bored ang isang 'to, kung ano ang maisip kahit hindi siya marunong sa isang bagay na 'yon ay gagawin niya. Akala ko bahay lang ang dapat kong hanapin, mapapahanap rin ata ako ng kasambahay dahil sa lalaking 'to.

Anong oras na ba at bakit mukhang may energy na 'tong lalaking 'to?

Tinignan ko ang phone ko para tignan kung anong oras na— 9 AM? Bakit pakiramdam ko ay 7 AM pa lang? Damn.

"Go take a bath; we're looking for a house today," I said to Luca. Sasabihin ko na lang sa kaniya mamaya ang tungkol sa pagbisita namin kina Wyatt pagtapos namin magtingin ng bahay.

"I'm hungry, though, and I want to eat first," he complained.

I sighed and walked towards him. "We'll eat later. You wash yourself up for now. Hmm?"

He averted his gaze and pouted. "Haa, fine. As long as you'll pay."

"Okay~" I replied, chuckling. "Go now," I added, and tapped his shoulder to make him move.

"Argh, don't push me!" He whined before he moved away and went to the bedroom to get his clothes.

This little— I didn't even push him, so what the heck is he blabbering about? Tch. I just tapped his shoulder for goodness' sake. Gosh, he's such a grumbler. Haa, I need to be patient for this guy, he's my younger brother after all. Let's let it pass for now since he followed my order.

Pagtapos niya maligo ay ako naman ang sumunod. Katulad ng napag-usapan ay kumain kami bago naghanap ng bahay. Hindi ko na nabilang kung ilang village ang napasukan namin, ang alam ko lang ay inabot na kami ng hapon sa paghahanap. Maayos naman ang mga bahay nila kaso kailangan ko pang maghanap ng malapit sa mall, convenient store at hospital.

Hindi naman ako naghahanap ng masyadong malaking bahay dahil kaming dalawa lang naman ni Luca ang titira ro'n, at magiging mag-isa na lamang akong titira ro'n kapag umuwi ng California niya si Luca. Okay na siguro kahit iyong may garage lang at hindi masyadong malaki, pero hindi rin masikip kapag may mga bisita. Ang tanong, magkaroroon kaya ako ng mga bisita? Sigh...
