Xander just stared at the face, a handsome one for that--- with his mouth slightly ajar, eyes blinking absentmindedly. He can't seem to move a bit, just sitting there and gawking at the man looking at him. He wanted to say something, but he can't find the right words. it's probably because he's still trembling from what just happened.

"who the hell are you?" the man asked, eyeing him intently. "how did you get into my property?"

Xander still can't speak, when in fact he's good with words. He's used to giving words of comfort to patient's relatives before and after his surgery procedures, but right at this moment, he just looked like a fool who keeps on staring at this guy. He can't help but think that he met him once before---that he has seen him somewhere.

"haist! I don't have the whole night to ask you questions, dude. It's getting late and I'm closing my gates, so you better talk." the guy said, placing both hands on his window, leaning closer to him. Xander could feel the guy's minty breath fanning his face."just tell me who the fuck you are. speak quickly or I'll call the MPPD."

Xander got alarmed with what the guy said. He can't call the authorities, or his father will know what happened. and he knows what his father will do the moment he finds out about it. and he won't allow it.

"P-please, I-I mean no harm to you, or to anyone. It's just that..."

"it's just what?"

Xander bit his lower lip and held on tighter to his car's steering wheel. He's afraid the guy won't believe him, that he'd still call the police.

They guy stood up properly and heaved a tetchy sigh. mas lalong na-tense si Xander dahil ramdam nyang naiirita na ito sa kanya. He looked at Khairie on the backseat. kailangan nya pa itong iuwi pero sa sitwasyon ngayon, hindi nya kayang bumyahe mag-isa dahil lasing ang kasama nya.

"just get out of your car, bro. get out, or I'll rip your car door."

He got no choice but to remove his seat belt and get out, hesitantly, from his car. He stood there unwieldly before this guy whose one eyebrow is arched perfectly at him. His resting bitch face is enough to make Xander uncomfortable. nakadagdag pa sa suplado nitong aura ang tatlong pilak na hikaw nito sa kaliwang tenga na kumikinang kapag natatamaan ng liwanag mula sa  florescent lamps. The guy, the owner of this property he crashed in is wearing a gray shirt and tattered jeans and a pair of leather slippers. His hair is done in an undercut, emphasizing his oval shaped face and strong jaws. He's standing right before him, arms folded on his chest.
