On His Roster (Aviación #1) Completed

Settled

We're in Tresind Arabian Court-Dubai Marina. Still in our uniforms. The whole interior of the restaurant is sophisticated even their fine dining set up.

He demanded Niccolo to find Dinara and Niccolo willingly obliged. I unconsciously murmur something while both men struggled to keep me awake.

I heard Nathan asking about my hotel room but to his dismay i'm already too wasted to answer. For some unknown reason my lifeless arms clung onto Hervé's neck, that made both of us unsteady.

"I can't find her friend,"

"Guess she went out..." Niccolo informed the guys beside me.

Felt his hands on the back of my knee then carried my limp body, bridal style. I dont know him personally and its my first time to see him tonight, realizing what i did and our awkward position right now made me even more sick.

"Hungry...ah..can i have—" i tried to push his chest but to my surprise his strength and hold on me can't be weakened.

I loose my vision again and helplsessly rested my head on his shoulder. Hindi ko alam kung gaano katagal akong walang malay nagising nalang ako na nakalabas na kami ng club.

He helped me settle in the passenger seat and latched the seatbelt around my body. Heard them talking but was too lost in thoughts to understand what Nathan said to him.

"Here drink this."

"I am not thirsty..." umiwas ako nang inilapit niya ang bottled water. Heard him sighed as i challenged his patience with me.

He covered my body with trench coat then reclined my seat. "Keep that on or you'll get cold." giit niya. "Woman, do you even know how to listen?" Napailing siya nang di pa rin ako nakikinig. Inayos niya yun at siniguradong natakpan ang aking balikat.

"it's hot..." naiiyak kong reklamo pakiramdam ko ay nasasakal ako nang may nakadagan na tela sa aking leeg. I removed it and throw somewhere but was immediately stopped by a masculine hand. Heard him hissed and made sure that my skin is covered properly.

"You're really testing my patience right now." Heard him murmured then continued driving.

I should worry that i am now inside a stranger's vehicle but my head is killing me right now so i dont care whatever happened here there's nothing worse from feeling drunk and tasting the consequences of my actions.

Nagising nalang ako at napansin na nasa isang parking lot kami ng fastfood. I looked at him then down on the paper bag he's holding.

He leaned closer and adjusted my seat again. "I got take out. Waited for you to wake up so...i dont know what you prefer but this still good."

Can't help but look at him accusingly. Pagod siyang suminghap at nagtitimpi nalang sa akin. Inayos niya yun nang mapansing wala akong balak na kumilos. Isa isa niyang nilabas ang mga order niyang pagkain.

I stare at the foods be ordered, weighing what i craved or what looks enticing to eat.

"Just eat." He demanded when i stare at it for too long. Inirapan ko siya at Kumain na ako, gutom na gutom.

I picked the burger first and munched it silently. Since i am facing his side and the food are placed in between us i have no choice but to see what he's doing, watch his every move.

Tulala man ay nakita ko lahat ng galaw niya. How he pulled the drink out of the box, then unwrapped the straw and put it on my cup. Nakahanda na ang inumin ko sa harap.
