SABOTAGING MY WALKOUT QUEEN

MEETING HER 08

NON-STOP BICKERING

Athena's P.O.V.

"How dare you?" I growled as I pushed him back to the pool.

That was when I remembered that he was one of the best swimming athletes in school. I haven't watched any swimming competition in St. Augustine's Academy yet, I had only seen his face on some posters.

Napahawak tuloy ako sa ulo ko. Hindi na sakit dala ng trangkaso 'yong nararamdaman ko ngayon kung hindi sakit na ng katangahan. The thought of him being drowned still lingered in my mind. Ni hindi ko nga alam kung anong gagawin ko kanina. I worried so much about him, then... I would have found out later that he was only acting and pretending?

Shit! Ang tanga mo, Athena! Masyado kang nataranta! How did you let yourself be fooled by someone like him?

This time, tumatawa na siya habang lumalangoy sa pool. He was even doing different kinds of strokes such as butterfly, front crawl and backstrokes just to catch my attention. I must say that whatever he does involve rhythmic and coordinated movements of all his major body parts.

Damn you, Cristoff! Enjoy that happiness... because I won't let this day pass without getting even!

"Helena, sorry na! Malay ko ba na sa katarantahan mo eh nakalimutan mong swimmer pala ako?" Binigyan niya ako ng ngiting nakakaloko. Nagso-sorry nga siya, but at the same time... nang-aasar naman!

I stomped off my feet dahil bwisit na bwisit ako sa kanya. "Eh bakit kailangan mong magpanggap na hindi ka marunong lumangoy? Bakit kailangan mong umarte na nalulunod ka na? Malamang, sasagipin kita. Nandito ka sa pamamahay namin and we will be the one in charge of anything that will happen to you! Alam mo namang may trangkaso ako, but what did you do? You made me jump to the pool!" malat na sigaw ko.

"Hindi ko naman sinabing tumalon ka tsaka malay ko ba na ayaw mo pala akong mamatay? Haha! Pero kung ikaw naman ang palaging magC-CPR sa akin eh parang gusto ko na lang din magpakalunod nang paulit-ulit." Alam kong namula ang mga pisngi ko nang dahil sa sinabi niya pero hindi ko siya pinansin. Nanlalamig ko na lang na piniga 'yong basa kong damit.

After a few minutes, he climbed at the side of the pool. He took off his uniform as well as his inner T-shirt. I could now see that he was half naked as droplets of water continued dripping all over his body and I just couldn't take my eyes off him. I must admit, my focus to wring my wet clothes suddenly left me.

In fairness for a sixteen-year old guy - he was already having firm muscles and six-pack abs. Though his body was not yet fully enhanced, I must admit that he was quite a head turner and once you saw him, you wouldn't even believe that he was only sixteen. And when he jerked his head to brush his hair up, it felt like everything abruptly moved in slow motion until...

"Enjoying the view?" he asked that suddenly made me aware of what was going on. I then blinked for a few times.

Shit! Did I just drool on him? No. He's my rival and I hated him most of the time!

"You wish! Enjoy the pool, you have to clean that later. I'll go ahead because I need to dry myself. If my fever gets worst, it is all your fault! Hmp!" Pumasok na ako sa loob ng mansion at umakyat sa kwarto ko. I needed to escape my flushing cheeks from him as fast as I could. Mahirap na, baka lalo pang lumaki ang ulo niya!

Pagkapasok ko sa kwarto, I didn't know why but I suddenly smiled reminiscing all the things that happened today. I even placed my fingers on my lips while feeling the incredible sound of my heartbeats. The sensation was tingling and I just couldn't get away with it.
