Hate Me Until You Can't [PSLU #4] [GL]

Sylvia's POV

"There were four people who confessed to Zianna today and one of them is a woman." Karma said.

Sabay sabay naman kami nila Sage at Portia na napalingon kay Zia na kabit balikat lang na nakapamulsa, it seems like it didn't even bother her for a bit. Even last week, almost ten people tried, pero hindi pa sila nakakalapit Zianna turned them down agad.

I admit saming apat kasi siya talaga ang pinaka may charisma, kaya miski babae nabibingwit niya. She claims herself for being an aromantic kasi, she doesn't have any desire to entire relationships nor to engaged in any sexual activities.

So, basically wala pa siyang first kiss nor nagkaroon ng boyfriend or girlfriend.

"Typical Cervantes who gets a lot of suitors but ended up being a simp to one person." Portia teasingly said.

"Do I look like someone who's interested in romantic films?" Tumaas ang kilay niya na halatang nairita. Oh no Zianna, dalawang pinsan mo nga nabaliw sa pinsan ko, ikaw pa kaya?

"Di mo alam, ito ngang si Sylvia typical playgirl dahil nag break kami, ngayon mukang she would go down on her knees just to marry her professor." Sage nudging me while wearing a playful smile.

Ginantungan naman ng iba yun, aba ayos ah. Sila na nag decision ng feelings ko. Porket nagreklamo ako sakanila dahil sa biglaang cancel ng engagement.

"You forgot about the part that their engagement has already been dismissed." Pangaasar ni Karma kaya sinamaan ko siya ng tingin. Bakit sakin bigla napasa yung topic?

I wasn't able to continue having a dinner with my family that night dahil hindi ko nagustuhan ang pinaparating nila sakin, they didn't even tell me the reason, but I could tell from my sister's eyes that she knows- still she chooses to take sides and keep her mouth shut.

Pero hindi nakakaligtas sakin na she really wanted to tell me the truth, and her eyes screams that she's in pain which confused me with her body language. 

"Engagement lang naman hindi tuloy, edi pakasalan nalang agad. Pwede namang laktawan, yung iba nga jan nag aanak agad kahit hindi pa kasal at hindi ready." I countered back. Ngumisi pa ako na parang nagkaroon ng idea sa isip.

"Wag mong itanan, pero kung balak mo ikidnap sabihan mo ko. Ipapabantay ko nalang kay ate yung company ni Miss Elise sa Australia. Kami na bahala ni Blythe kapag nagkaroon ng aberya." Kumindat pa sakin ang sira ulo kong pinsan.

"Count me in, it sounds absurd, but I can take it. I love the thrill." Zianna added while having a mischievous desire in her eyes.

"Maybe I can lend a hand, but you might not be able to need my help. You're richer than me." Karma said while busy scanning through the papers.

"Mas powerful ka nga eh, mafia nga kayo!" Mabilis kong sabi, nanlaki naman ang mata niya at halos isubsob na ang mukha ko sa pader nang bigla niyang takpan ang bibig ko.

"Gosh, your mouth!" She exclaimed, I chuckled.

Tinanggal ko ang pagkakatikip sa bibig ko. "I know right, magaling talaga tong bibig ko lalo na sa-" Napatigil ako sa pagsasalita nang mapansin ko ang mapaglaro nilang ngiti at nakatingin pa sa likuran ko. I suddenly felt uneasy— no more like I'm in danger.

"Lalo na sa what?" A woman asked, I already memorized her tone of voice in which I could already recognized even with my eyes close. I swallowed hard the lump on my throat when I felt her existence who's seemingly making my entire body froze at the spot.

"I repeat, in what Acozta?" She asked once again. 

Dali dali namang umalis yung apat, and what's worst is that they even winked and formally saluted at my direction to pissed me off more, leaving me hanging with this professor which I could feel that that she's throwing a dead glare on me.
