Will you choose me? (Montecarlo Heir #2)

Kabanata 10

"Ay nako! Sinasabe ko na. Si Amiel yan no? I don't know nalang Ria ha." May halong inis at malisyosang tanong ni Pierce.

I rolled my eyes at him. Sa pinsan din niya sana lalo na at mukhang offend na offend sa tanong ko. It's hard to express your pain, eh? Why don't you make your feelings known? Gulatin mo ang pinsan mo malandi ka!

"Basta. Ano nga?" Pilit ko habang tumutusok ng pagkain gamit ang tinidor. We are eating our lunch outside the campus. Dahil talaga kay Pierce kaya natuto akong kumain sa mga fast food eh.

I've been thinking about what Anton and I have been doing recently over the weekend na pakiramdam ko ang haggard haggard ko at kulang sa tulog ng pumasok sa school. Nakakabwisit!

True to his word, I haven't heard from him since then. No more morning messages, hindi narin siya tumatawag sa gabi. Pero nakaabang naman sa mga stories ko on facebook and instagram at doon naman naghaheart reaction.

He likes me. It's safe for me to assume. Right? He wouldn't do all of that just for a brotherly concern. Or did he? Mali ba ang pagkakaintindi ko? Fuck, Ria! Your thoughts are embarrassing!

"Pano ba. Ako kasi basta guwapo, malaki ang katawan, at anlakas ng sex appeal. Ayon. Bet na bet ko ang otoko pag ganon. Kahit di masyadong malaki ang anes epek na choosy paba?" Sabi nito sabay hahikgik "Tapos para malaman mo kung bet ka din niya dapat haharutin mo para malaman mo kung go ba siya sa eksena. Kikindatan mo siya tapos pag kinindatan ka niya pabalik or kinagat ang labi habang nakatingin sayo then boom! Epek siya sayo! Bet ka din niya for sure so pwede na kayo-" This bitch! I need a serious answer!

Natatawa siyang umilag ng halos itusok ko sakanya ang hawak na tinidor. "I'm asking you on how will you know if a person likes you or if you like them. Romantically, you idiot! I don't need to hear how you are hooking up with boys in a bar!"

"Edi parang infatuation ganon? Eh ganun din! Sa physical appearance naman yun naguumpisa duh." Pabalang na sagot ni Pierce.

So I'm infatuated? Or maybe it's my raging hormones? How he has this effect on me. How I can easily be distracted by just staring at his lips.. or admiring his skin complexion.. or his height and built. And how he had treated me the past weeks. Ano iyon?

Yes. It's probably the raging hormones. I think it's normal for a teenager like me. What isn't is that I am having this feeling towards him. It doesn't make sense.

I like Amiel. He's a douchebag but I still like him. I guess I was mad at what I saw the last time but I know I still like him. I used to stare at his biceps, he looked so hot when all sweaty from playing basketball in the court. He has fair complexion compared to Anton that's why it's obvious kung namumula siya.

Ganun iyon ah? It's the same feeling, yes? Halos isang linggo akong nagkukumpara at paulit ulit na nagisip hanggang sa pilit ko nalang binalewala. It's not like I'll die with not seeing his messages. Eh kelan lang naman nagsimula ang ganoon.

"Tsk." Di ko mapigilang mapapalatak sa inis. Hindi pwedeng malisyosa lang ako. Aba e sinong matinong tatawag sayo gabi gabi at tuwing gigising sa umaga.. just to check on you? Check? And now you have the guts not to message me anymore, huh? Completely ignoring me. Ni ha ni ho wala!

He is not active on social media pero alam kong online siya. Dahil lagi siyang nakaview tuwing may stories at my day ako sa instagram at facebook. Nakaheart reacts din siya sa mga inaupload ko.

"Still following, Ria?" Ms. Reyes asked. She's in her mid twenties and a math professor in San Vicente University. I went home early so I can have at least an hour of tutoring session with her. Kung hindi ko kaya, tuwing weekends naman pero mga three hours lang. Ayaw ni daddy na masyadong magtutok sa ganito dahil pumapasok din naman ako at gusto niya na maenjoy ko ang weekend na pahinga. I have these tutoring sessions for the last three weeks and I think this week will be the last for now. Isang linggo nalang ang ipapasok namin at Christmas break na.
