The Nerd's Scheme

Chapter 8

Khloe

I smiled at the server when she placed my order on the table

"Thank you"

She smiled back and bow her head a little. She was about to leave when I took her attention again

"Ahm can I ask you a question?"

She looks confused but seconds later, she nodded

"About that guy... " I lowered my voice and pointed at Logan who is sitting on the other corner near the glass wall. Nang dumating ako kanina ay wala pa sya. I just went to the restroom and when I got back, I saw him sitting there while drinking his coffee

"Is he a regular customer here?" I can't help but asked. It's not that I care about him. Napapansin ko lang kasi na after ng first encounter namin ay madalas ko na syang nakikita rito sa cafe pag pumupunta ako

"Hindi po Ma'am. Pero recently po ay napapadalas ang punta nya rito"

It's 15 past 9. He should be in a bar not in a cafe. I glanced at his place again. Napansin ko na kada may pumapasok sa cafe ay agad syang nag aangat ng tingin. Is he waiting for someone?

I'm in his blind position so he wasn't able to notice me

Ah nevermind. Ano bang pakialam ko sa kanya? Hindi ko pa nakakalimutan ang ginawa nya kanina

Nagpasalamat ako sa babae at magalang naman itong tumango at nagpaalam. Aside from the ambience and structural design of this cafe, I also like their service. Mabilis at mababait talaga ang mga workers. If there is an idle time, it was very short and bearable

After reading another chapter, I decided to go home. Anya is already at home and she was bombarding my phone with her messages

Iniligpit ko ang mga gamit ko at tumayo. Lumabas ako ng cafe nang hindi tinitignan ang pwesto ni Logan

Nag aabang ako ng taxi nang biglang sumulpot sa harap ko si Logan. I rolled my eyes in annoyance

"Do you need anything?" mataray kong tanong. I don't have any reason to be nice to him

"I just want to give this back" ipinakita nya ang libro na hawak. That's mine! Ang akala ko ay tuluyan ko itong nawala!

Kukunin ko na sana nang bigla nyang iangat iyon. Damn! He's tall! Hindi naman ako maliit pero mas matangkad lang talaga sya sa akin

"Give it to me!" tumitingkayad na ako pero wala pa ring nangyayari. Do I have to jump? But even with that, I don't think I could reach it

"Tell me your name first"

Tinigilan ko ang pagtingkayad at sinamaan sya ng tingin

"I won't fall for your trick"

He raised an eyebrow and an amusing grin plastered on his lips

"What trick you are talking about?"

And now he's playing innocent. I rolled my eyes

"Ibigay mo sa akin ang libro ko" inilahad ko ang kamay ko. Napatingin sya dun at nagulat ako nang hawakan nya iyon

"I'm Logan and you are?" he asked while shaking my hand. The heck is wrong with this jackass?

Mabilis kong binawi ang kamay ko. I glared at him. He's really damn annoying!

"I told you I won't give you my name!"

He shrugged and placed my book behind him

"Then I will not give this to you"
