Walang sali-salitang inabot ni Sol ang paper plate ngunit hindi man lang nag-ambang lumingon ang dalaga as if alam na nitong siya 'yon.
Nang mapansin na wala talaga itong balak na kunin ang inaabot niya ay kusa na siyang umupo sa tabi nito saka inilagay sa mga hita nito ang paper plate na may pagkain. Wala naman nang nagawa si Eilie pero hindi niya ginalaw ang paper plate.
"You know, I'm not mad" panimula ng binata
"I don't care whether you're mad or not. I prefer you being mad actually. That will make me more at ease" diretsong sagot naman ni Eilie nang hindi pa rin lumilingon
Sol took it as an advantage to look at her.
She's beautiful, and smart, but she can be selfish, and heartless. But those traits are the reason why he keeps on pursuing her. That's way more he likes it. It's her charm I guess?
Right.
Even that sounds way more like convincing himself.
"Then I'll be mad at you" seryoso niyang pagharap dito
Her strong gaze then started to face him in a slow motion. What? Why am I being like these? Why is she so gorgeous that my heart almost skipped a beat?
Walang emosyon na tinitigan lamang ni Eilie si Sol as if telling him that she doesn't care.
Those eyes.
Mariing ipinilig ng binata ang ulo sa mga naiisip. Eiliethyia then stood up and was about to leave when Sol talked again.
"Then pay me back by working for me" ibinalik ni Sol sakanya ang walang emosyon na mga tingin
Nilingon lang ni Eilie si Sol sandali saka hindi makapaniwalang nagpakawala ng ismir at ibinalik ang tingin sa dagat. Sol however remained looking at her.
That smirked knocked off his ego but he'll let it go for now.
"You're unbelievable. Hindi na kailangan, I can pay you with my own strategy-"
"I don't care about your strategy. You broke my phone so you'll have to pay me according my way"
He immediately cutted her words off. Let's see your limitation my heartless lady.
"Ano?! Bakit ka pumayag?!" hindi ma-explain ang gigil ngayon ni Andeng after her friend told her about the conversation she shared with Sollirim awhile ago
Well, she's obviously at fault here. She should take care of it even that means serving him until she's no longer indebted. That's part of the consequence of her reckless/impulsive actions.
"Ginoo naman Elya! Alam mo ba ang pinasok mo? What if...what if utusan ka ng mga masasama o kaya mapupusok?! I mean-I told you about them diba? They're playboys! You know how playboys think more than anyone else!" bakas ang pag-aalala sa bawat kataga nito
She looks anxious, disappointed, and helpless. Her face screams how dumb her decision is. It was like telling her that she just digged her own grave.
"I can handle myself" she assured her pero mas dumoble lamang ang frustrations sa mukha nito
"Can you even hear yourself right now?! Gosh I can't handle you! Here, call him right now at sabihin mo sakanya na babayaran mo na ngayon LAHAT" mahinang pagbato nito sakanya ng telepono
Nakasimangot niyang dinampot ang cellphone na lumanding sa kama.
"Look, it's just going to be a short while. And besides, bakit ko naman siya hahayaang abusuhin ako? I can handle myself promise. Kaya ko na 'to" she flashed her sweetest smile
