SEVEN AND ARROW (Montana Series 2 | BXB)

14: Aesthete

๋࣭࣪☾⭑

I should have known Arrow would pull something like that. It's obvious he didn't like Dandrix for whatever reason. So, when Dandrix asked me out, Arrow decided to play with my conscience. Pinapili niya ako kung uunahin ko ang lumabas o ang gawin ang video presentation namin sa PE. He totally knew I took school seriously and would feel guilty for blowing off a requirement.

"Fine! I'll stay!" I exclaimed.

He drew a quick smile. "Good. I'll just take a shower and let's go to Laxamana Mall."

"What?" I asked. "Akala ko ba ay gagawa tayo ng video presentation? Bakit tayo pupunta sa mall?"

"You forgot? I destroyed my archery bow," he reminded. "We need another one to make a good demonstration."

I squinted my eyes. "Can you just go alone and let me meet Dandrix first?"

Tinapunan naman niya ako ng masamang tingin. "Bakit ba atat na atat kang makasama ang lalaking 'yon?"

"Mr. Castellan, hindi lang siya basta lalaki, kaibigan ko siya. And since he moved here at Montana, I haven't spent time with him to bond."

"Bond?" he repeated.

"Yes. That's something you don't know for sure," I said with a sarcastic smile.

He scoffed. "Go on, just insult me. Baka habulin mo ako sa huli kapag nagbago ang isip ko sa video presentation na 'yan."

My mouth shut, seemed my lips were deflating. Binigyan niya ako ng nakakalokong ngiti sabay hubad sa pulang sleeve na kanyang isinukat. I wanted to look away, but I didn't want him to get the idea that I was intimidated with him.

"You love the view, don't you?" he said, giving me naughty stares and smile.

I raised an eyebrow. "View? You mean your disgusting abs?"

He giggled like a villain. "Disgusting, huh? How about this?" he asked, quickly, he pulled down his red boxer shorts.

I wanted to dash my palm to my face to cover my eyes, but I was caught off guard. Mabuti na lamang ay may suot siyang underwear. However, I could still see what's inside it because of how thin his underwear was.

Why would he buy and wear such thin underwear?

Tumawa ng malakas si Arrow sa aking reaksyon kaya naman mabilis kong tinanggal ang indoor sleeper ko at ibinato ito sa kanya. Nasalo naman niya ito kasabay ng mas malakas pang tawa.

He gave me another playful smile, then he grabbed the garter of his underwear, planning to pull it down and show me his thing. Bago pa man siya magtagumpay sa kanyang binabalak ay mabilis kong binuksan ang kanyang pintuan at tumakbo palabas ng kwarto.

Dinig ko pa rin ang malakas niyang tawa nang maisara ko na ang kanyang pintuan. After a moment, Tita Meryl came running, looking surprised.

"What happened?" she asked.

"Ah... Wala po, Tita," sagot ko at ramdam ko ang nagiinit kong pisngi.

"Are you sure?" he asked again, smiling. "Ngayon ko lang ulit narinig si Arrow na tumawa ng gano'n."

I scratched my head saying, "I must be a good joker, Tita." I forced a smile, trying to remove the naked image of Arrow in my head.

Tita Meryl went near me and took my hand. "Thank you, Seven. Sana ay madalas ko pa siyang makitang ngumiti at marinig na tumawa."

Saglit akong natahimik sa kanyang sinabi. Kitang-kita ko sa mga mata niya ang kasiyahan. Despite the fact that I discovered she cheated to her husband, I couldn't still let my head crowd with criticism about her.
