Works of Love (Hiraeth 2: Max And Chanel)

Chapter 7

"I-is it still part of the 1k ba?" She tried to hissed it out.

Max lightly chuckle and shrugged.

"Galing ko ba?"

She rolled her eyes at him out of irritation. She should really be careful in believing his words, one day she might assume and he's just joking lang pala.

She gasped when she remembered something.

"I almost forgot, I should talk to Klaz Smith pala!" She exclaimed.

Kumunot naman ang noo ni Max sa pagtataka at lumingon sa kanya.

"Kaibigan mo?" He asked.

"Nope. He might be my future fiancé." She shrugged.

"Ah.."

Lumingon siya sa binata dahil bigla itong tumahimik. Mukhang wala na siguro silang ma-topic? It's time to go now, right?

"Uhm, I think I should go. I-ikaw?" She asked.

Nagkibit balikat ang binata at nilagay ang kamay sa bulsa nito. He looks hot doing that, she won't deny.

"Aalis. Magpapa-enroll."

"Huh? But it's night already. Where are you enrolling?" She asked in confusion.

"Sa Jak Roberto University. BS in Anti-Selos." Sagot nito.

"H-huh?!"

Max just smirked cooly and shook his head.

"Alis na, Miss Ma'am. Baka hinahanap ka na rin ng mga Kuya mo. Sabihin pa nilang tinanan kita." He smirked.

She look at him weirdly while walking away. Max just smile at her and wave his hand. Even how much she wanted to frown, napapa-smile na din siya sa smile nito. His smile is contagious.

Tumigil siya sa paglalakad at tinaasan ito ng kilay.

"Why are you smiling, huh? You like me na?" Pagtataray niya.

"Payment mo, Miss Ma'am. Where na ba?" Panggagaya nito sa kanya.

Her cheeks blushed in embarrassment.

"I'm not satisfied with your performance!" Then she left.

He really know how to make her blood boil! It's okay na sana sila, eh!

"Miss Ma'am naman! Ginalingan ko na nga, eh." Max whined like a child.

Pinigil niyang mag-smile sa behavior nito. He's like a kid inside a perfect mature body. So adorable.

"I have no cash with me. Do you have phone ba? So that when I have cash we can just meet up." She offered.

She left her phone in the table. She's not also sure if Max brought one since he's working but seeing him picking up his phone out of his pocket make her feel relief.

"Meet up? Parang date ganoon?" Max asked.

She rolled her eyes at him.

"No. I'm just going to give you the money, that's it." She said while tapping her number on his phone.

Muli niyang binalik ang phone sa binata. Si Max na ang naglagay ng nickname sa kanya. She wanted to see what he named her on his contacts but Max keep his phone immediately while grinning.

"I-text kita ng good night mamaya baka hindi ka makatulog." Max smirked.

"Yeah. Because your good night will gonna give me nightmare. Bye!" She rolled her eyes and turn her back at him.

She heard Max lightly laugh. Napailing na lang siya.

She walk towards her seat when someone block her way. She haven't talk to this man yet but she already know who he is.
