I recommend listening to ' Huwag Muna Tayong Umuwi ' by BINI.
Zayn's POV
My dad ended the call, and Naveah's face couldn't be read.
" sorry about that. " I said.
" sige, umuwi ka na. " She replied.
I sat by the tree and she followed. Hindi ko hiniling sa mundo na bigyan ako ng rason para mabuhay. Ngunit, ba't siya nandito?
" hindi. This is normal. " I replied.
" Ganon talaga yung dad ko, this isn't the first time this happened. " I added.
" But still, Zayn. Umuwi ka na. It's late na rin. Malayo pa bahay niyo. " She said with a smile.
" You want me to go home that fast? " I replied.
" Oo. For your own good. Baka ano pa ang mangyari. " She said.
" I have my motorcycle naman. " I replied.
" still, Zayn. Umuwi kana. " She said.
" In one condition. " I replied.
" ano? " She asked.
" ihahatid kita. " I said.
" no, Zayn. Okay lang. Kaya ko. " She replied.
" Edi hindi ako uuwi. " I replied.
" Zayn. " She said.
" sino kaba? " I questioned, jokingly.
" ah sige. " She replied.
" joke lang. " I said.
" I'll drop you off sa bahay niyo. Whether you like it or not. It's dangerous for you to commute or walk at this hour. If delikado sa akin, mas delikado sayo. Don't be stubborn. " I added.
" Oo na. " She replied.
Kinuha niya yung mga gamit niya sa bench, at pumunta kami sa motor ko. My motorcycle is a motorbike, and I'mm afraid she might not like how I will drive it.
" tangina. Ang laki. " She replied.
" Don't worry. I'll drive you safe. " I said and smiled.
I usually drive so fast in my whole entire life. And never once have I ever let someone ride my motorcycle.
But I'll let it slide, for her.
" I'm not sanay in riding this! Don't drive too fast! " She expressed as she rode my motorcycle.
To be honest, she is the most gorgeous girl I have ever seen.
She wore the helmet I gave her as she rode my motorcycle.
After that, I turned on the engine.
" hang on. " I said.
" yeah, yeah. " she replied as she held the rear at the back of her.
" not there. Sige ka. Mahuhulog ka. " I teased.
" asan? " She questioned. I held her hand and placed it on my waist.
I looked at her and we looked at eachother.
" tara na, huy! " She said.
I started driving fast, when I realized I had a passenger.
" Oh, sorry. But, don't worry, I'll keep you safe. San ba bahay mo? " I questioned.
" Not bahay, condo. " She replied.
" Oh. You live alone? " I questioned.
" Yeah. " She replied when I suddenly burst the speed which led her grip to tighten on my waist.
" tangina mo. " she expressed.
" My bad. " I replied as I chuckled.
" Dun lang yung condo ko. " She said and pointed.
" okay. " he replied.
" Sayo? " She questioned.
" secret. "
" kj mo. " she replied.
I drove and drove until there was a red light. I stopped and looked around when I saw an ice cream shop. I then looked at Naveah who was already looking at the shop.
" do you want one? " I asked.
" green flag mo naman. " she replied.
" no, hindi. " she added.
It was already the green light and I drove. Drove to the ice cream shop near us.
" Zayn, it's fine nga, I'm not into sweets. " she said.
I didn't listen and just parked my motorcycle.
" tara. " I said.
She went down and we went inside the shop.
" what do you want, Naveah? " I questioned.
" ikaw. " she said and matched it with a laugh.
The cafe had a vibe, it looked very expensive, and we were the only ones filling the room.
I just stared at her leading her to stop laughing.
" You're such a kj! I'll buy na nga! But you won't pay for it. " She exclaimed.
" I will, Naveah. Whether you like it or not. " I replied.
" you don't know what I like. " she said and rolled her eyes.
I didn't mind her and ordered.
It's true. I don't know what she likes.
" Good Evening, Miss. I would like two scoops of all, one medium sized Mint Chocolate Chip, two bottles of water and two slices of red velvet cake. It is to eat here, that's all. Thank you. " I said leading for the cashier to widen her eyes.
" t-two scoops of all? " the cashier questioned as if making sure she heard it right.
There are 13 flavors and 2 scoops is equivalent to the small size cup.
" Yes. Since it is to eat here, you can just be the one to decide on where to place it. Whether one flavor in one plate or you will place it all in one plate. " I replied.
Naveah was clueless of what I ordered because she was already sitting down.
" Okay, sir. Your order will be right there in 5 minutes. " the cashier said.
" that would all be a total of two thousand two hundred forty two. ( P2,242 ) " She said and I paid for it.
I thanked the cashier and went to Naveah. After that, Naveah stood up to order herself some Ice Cream. But before that, I gently held her hand leading her to stop.
" I already did. Naveah, just let me. " I said leading her to smile and sit back to her seat.
" You really did not have to, Zayn. " She replied.
" I wanted to, Hev. " I said and smiled.
After that, an akward silence filled the place as we waited for the Ice cream we were craving for. Well, I'm not a big fan of sweets.
The akward silence was broke by the waiter who served the Ice creams I ordered.
The waiter placed the Ice cream flavors one by one leading Naveah to be shocked.
" Cookies and cream is my favourite, Zayn. " She said paired with a sigh and a fake cry on her face.
" I did not know. I can't seem to know what you like, just by looking at you. " I replied with a cold tone.
" edi sasabin ko. What I like is ikaw. " She said as she smirked at me, leading me to feel cringe at what she just said and did.
If this girl wasn't Naveah Raya Guevarra, I would have left her sa park and never ever interact with her again. But it's Naveah.
