My Possessive Enemy (Series #1)

17

"Asa."

I rolled my eyes at iniwan na siya roon. Narinig ko pa ang tawa niya at sumunod sa akin. Nakakainis siya... sobra.

Iyon lang pala ang rason kung bakit siya lumipat dito? He was really afraid to lose me, huh? How possessive. Maka-angkin para namang sa kaniya na talaga ako.

"Hey, wait!" Sigaw niya. Patuloy pa rin ako sa paglalakad hanggang sa maabotan niya rin ako. He then put his arm on my shoulder. "Today is your birthday pala, happy birthday. I'm sorry, I forgot."

Umiling na lang ako. Oo nga pala, today is my birthday. How come I did forget about my own birthday? Was it because I was just too sad? Well, birthday was nothing for me anymore, it started since I got trapped on Kaiden's jail.

"Do you have plans for your birthday?" He asked.

I shrugged again. "Ang mabuhay nang matagal ang importante sa 'kin." Humarap ako sa kaniya ang crossed my arms on my chest. "Celebrating my birthday with you would be disgusting."

His face suddenly went soft as his smile fades and looked down, nagpipigil ng luha. I suddenly felt a sting inside my chest... but no, I have to be hard in order for him to give up on me. I just wanted to be free.

"I know," he said. He look at my eyes again with a pleading eye. "But.. can I at least go out with you tonight?"

Umiling ako. "No. Ikaw lang ang magiging masaya niyan, para namang ikaw ang nag-birthday."

"Baby, just please... let me," he whispered again. "You're hurting me."

"Kulang pa 'yan sa mga ginagawa mo sa 'kin, Kaiden." I shoot back and walked away, leaving him there.

I didn't noticed a tear had just came out from my eyes. I quickly wiped it and went inside our room and acted so normal. Hindi na ako bumalik sa cafeteria, wala na akong pake kung wala akong kain.

"Why didn't you come back?" Nagtatampong tanong ni Jeyo. "Nakakatampo ka... may chika pa naman ako." He pouted.

I felt guilty for leaving him there. At oo nga, may sasabihin pa sana siya sa 'kin no'n. "Hey," I reached for his hand, natawa ako dahil inilayo niya 'yon. "Masakit lang ang puson ko."

"Your puson always hurts," he rolled his eyes. "What happened to you ba? I got worried sa 'yo tuloy. May tinatago ka ba sa 'min?" He raised a brow.

I bit my lower lip and denied quickly. Of course, I don't want to tell them now. Not now... maybe soon. Baka mahimatay sila or what.

"Ewan ko talaga na-paano ako. And, wala rin naman akong tinatago." I denied at the same time, I lied.

"You sure?"

"Yes, bestie," I smiled at him. Parang napawi na rin ang tampo niya dahil ngumiti siya. "Come on, chika mo na kung ano gusto mong i-chika."

"Okay! So, here it is..."

When the school day was over, lumabas na rin ako ng room. I was heading towards the gate, but I stopped when someone suddenly covered my eyes with it's palm.

"Aray! Sino ba 'to?! Bw*sit-"

"Hi," Raike suddenly removed his palm on my eyes and smiled at me. He tilted his head a little to the side. "Ano 'yon? Bw*sit ba ako?" He acted like he was hurt.

"O-oy, i-ikaw pala," I didn't know what to say! I was just surprise, okay?! And plus... ang awkward para sa 'kin! We just kissed earlier!

"Hindi, hindi si Raike 'to, Zior." Napangiwi ang labi ko sa kaniya, ang sarcastic niya masyado!

"Raike! Huwag mo nga akong iniinis!" I glared at him.

Umiling agad siya at tumawa. "Hey, joke lang naman." Umakbay siya sa 'kin. "Now, where are we heading?"
