Ikadalawampu't Walong Kabanata - Ang Pag-iimbistiga

Nang maka-recover ako dahil sa mga nangyari kagabi, pinilit ko ang sarili ko na tumayo at mag-asikaso. After all, I need to do my work well. If I don't want them to smear Takeru's name, I need to work hard. Although there is nothing between me and Takeru, me being his ex-partner can drag him down.

After I made myself ready, I took a deep breath. Alright, I need to act well. I need to act normal.

As soon as I saw him sitting at the edge of the bed, my cheeks warmed in embarrassment. The memories of the intense and passionate moment that happened between me and Takeru last night flooded my mind.

Shit, hindi talaga magkasama ang omega at alpha sa iisang room. I know that my heat is coming, and I still let him be with me. Such a damn omega.

I sighed. The memories played in my mind like a film strip, and whenever I think of them, the possessiveness that I have in my heart ignites. However, I quickly tried to shrug it off. It's not good to have these feelings.

Hindi ko na lang pinansin si Takeru habang nakaupo siya sa kama. Still, I could feel his gaze on me. Parang kulang na lang ay i-drill niya ang mga mata niya sa katawan ko. His gaze is so intense that it is difficult to ignore it.

I turned and looked at him, raising an eyebrow. "May problema ba?"

He almost immediately shook his head. "No," he answered. "Um, do you feel uncomfortable?" he asked, concerned.

Napatulala ako kay Takeru at saka mahinang umiling. "No." Umiwas naman ako ng tingin. "Why?"

He didn't answer; he only shook his head. Napatango na lang ako dahil alam ko na hindi ko naman na siya kakakausap pa. Wala naman kasi kaming magiging topic. Ano pag-uusapan namin? Past namin?

I mentally rolled my eyes.

Whatever.

Even though I tried not to look at him, I still find myself glancing in his direction. However, before he noticed, I quickly looked away.

Pakiramdam ko mawawalan ako ng lakas ng loob na kausapin siya na parang wala lang kung mahuhuli niya akong nakatingin sa kaniya.

We continue our ride since ilang oras naman ay makakarating na kami. Pero may pinagtataka lang ako.

I glance at Takeru. "Um, Takeru?"

I saw him glance at me and then look at the road again. "Yes?"

"I'm just wondering, ikaw ba ang nagpatato ng warehouse?"

He shook his head. "No," he answered immediately. "It was my grandfather's idea."

I asked again, and my voice was carrying both curiosity and anticipation. "Have you ever wondered why this warehouse is located so far from the city? Like, why is it located here in the middle of nowhere?"

I saw his brows furrow slightly. I could see that he was also interested in it. "Well," he started, "I have to admit, I also thought it was a bit odd," he added. "At first, I was curious. I mean, there's hardly any activity around here. There's nothing but trees and roads, a few cars passing by, and it's not the most convenient place as well."

I nodded my head, indicating that I agreed with him. "I guess there's a reason behind that," I continued, looking away from Takeru. I feel like my heart is going to jump out of my mouth. It's beating so fast. "Do you know why?"

A wry smile tugged at Takeru's face. "It wasn't a good story, do you want to hear it?"

Humarap naman ako kay Takeru, my eyes were full of curiosity and anticipation. Nodding my head, I said, "Yeah."
