Chapter 23

I raised a brow at Jax. "Huwag mo akong pag-tripan. Sinasabi ko sa iyo, hindi ako natutuwa." I said as he looked at me in disbelief.

"I already told you about it!" He protested.

Napakunot naman ang noo ko. "Gago, akala ko nagbibiro ka." Kako naman.

His forehead creased even more. "What?" Hindi makapaniwalang sabi niya. "Since when did I joke about stuff like these in front of you?"

My jaw dropped. "This is why you made me pack for two whole weeks?" Kako at tumango siya.

"I told you we were going. You didn't believe me?" Hindi makapaniwalang sabi niya.

Unti-unti akong umiling at napahawak nalang siya sa ulo niya. He looked so done with me. "Where did you think we were going?" Tanong niya at napalabi ako.

"Sa Palawan?" Kako at lumaki ang mata niya.

"What?!" He said in disbelief. He was so in disbelief that his British accent was getting thick. "I told you we were going to London. Many times, love. Many times. And then you're going to tell me that you think we're going to Palawan? Bloody fucking hell, Desiree."

Ngumuso naman ako. "Ih." Pagmamaktol ko. "Parang hindi ka kase seryoso eh."

He rolled his eyes. "When will you trust me, huh?" Tanong niya. "Firstly, when you didn't believe that I've fallen in love with you. Secondly, the time that you didn't believe that I can drop everything for you just to see you. And lastly, this." He said softly while caressing my hair.

"Your trust issue is pissing me off." He pinched my cheeks.

I frowned. "Pero real nga?" Tanong ko ulit.

He groaned. "Yes! But, if you don't want to go. We can just change plans and go to Palawan instead." He sighed.

He looked like he really wants to go to London. Halos apat taon na rin daw siyang hindi bumabalik doon eh.

I sighed. "No need. We'll go." I said as he immediately smiled.

His eyes twinkled. "Really?" He asked.

Tumango naman ako. "You always talk about how much you miss London. I want to see it for myself." Kako.

He kissed my cheeks, that made me freeze. "I promise you, that it'll be worth it." He grinned and held my hand.

"Papaalam lang ako kila Mama." Kako at tumango naman siya.

Then he snapped his finger. "I'll tell Mommy too that I'm courting you. They're also in London right now." He said as my eyes widened. Gago?!

"Tangina? Seryoso ka na naman?" Tanong ko at tumango siya.

He rolled his eyes. "Why do you make it look like I'm always joking?" He asked as I laughed.

I ruffled his hair. "It's not like that." I said. "Masyado lang talaga atang malala ang trust issues ko." I added.

He nodded. "So, basically, you're the problem, not me." Tumango-tango siya.

Tinignan ko naman siya nang masama. "Ay talaga ba, Atlantis?" Inis na sabi ko.

Kinagat niya ang pang-ibabang labi niya na para bang nagpipigil siya ng ngiti. "Problema mo?" Tanong ko.

"Atlantis?" I called him again when he didn't respond.

His ears were red and I couldn't figure out why. "Atlantis Jax. What the fuck is wrong with you?" I irritatedly said.
