Chasing Stars

chapter 14

Napapayuko ako dahil pakiramdam ko ay panay ang tingin ng grupo ng kakilala ni Enzo sa amin.

I froze when Enzo tucked my hair behind the back of my ear.

"Baka makain mo ang buhok mo." He said softly.

I stared at him for a while before avoiding looking at him.

Ramdam ko ang pag-init ng pisngi ko.

I can't stand but think that he's giving me hints. His actions.. his words.... Damn it! I should stop.

"I'm done." I said kahit na kaunti pa lang ang nakakain ko.

He nodded. "Then maybe I should introduce you to my cousins."

Tumayo sya at hinintay na tumayo rin ako bago hawakan ang bewang ko at naglakad papunta sa grupo ng mga lalaking iyon.

"This is Leo. My youngest brother." Pakilala ni Enzo sa lalaking nakabanggaan ko sa may beach kanina.

Leo smiled and waved his hand. "Hi! Sister-in-law."

They are all not in our wedding. It;s my first time to see them.

"This is Conrad. My cousin. Tito Gray's son." Turo ni Enzo sa lalaking brown ang buhok.

He smiled at me also.

"This is Clarence. Conrad's younger brother."

The guy with the braces smiled. He looks young. Maybe fifteen?

"Then Marcus. Tita Criza's son."

The guy just look at me.

"That's all. Enough with the introduction and don't you dare bother my wife." Banta ni Enzo sa mga pinsan at kapatid nya.

Mas hinapit pa ako ni Enzo papalapit sa kanya bago kami naglakad paalis.

I heard him sigh.

"You okay?" I asked.

"Yeah. Those guys just stressed me out."

"Huh? Why?"

Nilingon nya ako at saka ibinalik ang tingin sa daan ng walang sinabi.

Hinayaan ko na lang sya.

Ayokong bigyan ng malisya ang mga ginagawa at sinasabi nya hanggat maaari.

Ayokong umasa.

"Do you know how to surf?" Enzo asked.
