DEALING DIAMOND (Mafia Series 5) (Completed✓)

CHAPTER 1

NAIINIS NA tinakwil ko ang kamay ni kengkoy na ngayon ay nakahawak sa braso ko, kanina pa ako naiinis sa kanya dahil sunod sya nang sunod.

Is he a dog ba?

“What the heck is your problem, Zachy? Gusto mo ba ako?” -I asked. “You know, Kengkoy, you're not my type, find someone na lang, okay? I'm pretty sure naman may mahahanap kang iba dyan, hindi nga lang kasing ganda ko pero alam kong mas better sa'yo. Stop following me, you're getting on my nerves na.”

Nagtagpo ang dalawang kilay niya sa isa't-isa. Sighing, I glared at him. Lately, napapansin ko sa kanya na he always making pa cute. I mean, Oo, he's cute and pogi pero hindi ko sya type. Ayoko kasi sa mga may dimple. He has a lot of humor at nabwi-bwisit ako sa mga lalaking ang co-corny ng mga jokes. I feel so sorry for him, I hope I can't hurt his feelings.

I puffed out a breath, my hand hovering over his back before I finally tapped him. “I'm sorry, Zachy, but I'm not available. Stop flirting with me, alright? Mahiya ka naman sa brother ko.”

“Zafire,” -lukot ang mukha na tumitig sya sa'kin. “What the fúck makes you think that I'm flirting with you? Why the hell would you think that I like you?”

“Duh? You kept following me kaya.”

“I'm not following you for god's sake,” -he retorted. “I am stopping you from dragging my clothes dahil naipit dyan sa lintek mong bag.”

Napamaang ang bibig ko sa sinabi niya. Paulit-ulit na umiikot sa tenga ko ang pangatlong huling sinabi nito.

“Did you just called my bag a freaking lintek?” -sinamaan ko sya nang tingin. “How dare you, Zechariah Roxas Montefalco. Mas mahal pa itong bag ko keysa sa buhay mo!”

“Seriously? Can you just let me cut this fabric in peace? I'm starting to feel like a nervous tailor here.”

Hinayaan ko syang hatakin ang tela ng damit niya sa napaka luxurious kong bag.

I stuck out my tongue, a defiant smirk playing on my lips, and flipped my hair before turning away. That kengkoy, palagi na lang bumibisita sa bahay ng kapatid ko. He always visits my baby brother at nagmu-mukha na syang pulubi dahil palagi dun kumakain, hindi tuloy ako makatyempo na makagawa ng prank para kay John.

Anyway, I have a good amount of time to work out the details of my plan. For sure naman magiging successful ang devil idea ko.

I hopped in my oh-so-fabulous baby pink Lambo, na binili ko pa kay kengkoy. With a flick of my wrist, I fastened my seatbelt and threw the car into gear, tires screeching as I tore away from the village. Ito talaga trip ko every weekends kapag wala akong magawa. I would travel here and there, minsan bini-bwisit ko ang kapatid ko kapag naiisip ko sya, sometimes naman tumatambay ako sa penthouse na binili ko for myself.

My life is boring, nakapagtapos na ako nang pag-aaral, successful, may maraming pera, nakakapag travel all around the world, maraming suitors pero hindi pa rin ako masaya.

Alam nyo yong feeling na parang may kulang, yong tipong perpekto ka naman sa paningin ng lahat pero kapag—okay fine, I believe in setting high standards for myself. I'm always striving to improve, and I'm not afraid to celebrate my successes. I know people say no one's perfect, but I think everyone has their own unique strengths.

While I was driving, I received a call from my cousin Nicole, who's apparently in Manila right now, having the best day of her life with her sugar daddy. “Hello, couzy!” -I chirped. “Where are you? Nasa resto ka na ba?”
