Love is, Stacey Sevilleja | Jhocey

Chapter 16

Jhoanna and Aiah where towards the wall of the pool, arms crossed over the edge as they stared at the view. While others are doing their own thing, Colet and Maloi where drinking at the bar counter while Sheena and Gwen are chilling in the jacuzzi. And Aiah's popular friends were already inside the house. Leaving them only swimming peacefully at the pool.

They are a bit far from her friends, because the Sevillejas have a long and wide pool area. The sun was setting between the hills. The sight was an awe inspiring experience that helped Jhoanna to relaxed.

"I miss you Jho."she heard Aiah say from beside her."I'm sorry I've been busy kaya madalas akong hindi nakakasabay sa inyo tuwing lunch."

"Namiss din kita." Jhoanna smiled."At saka okay lang yon Aiah. Alam ko namang busy ka at madami kang ginagawa."

Lately, Aiah hasn't been able to spend time with Jhoanna and her friends because she is too busy in the council office and other stuff, just now they met again after one week. And she admitted that she also missed Aiah because she was fun and easy to be with. She was really kind, sweet and gentle. She then thought that if Aiah is still the one she wants, she might be happy now, not like what she feels now that she is confused by what Stacey is showing and making her feel.

"Do you like traveling?"Aiah suddenly asked, removing Jhoanna from her thoughts. She shrugged.

"Kung may pera ako, oo. Pero mahirap ang buhay ngayon. Kaya hindi, I don't like traveling."

"We can change that."

"Kung sinasabi mo yan dahil gusto mo akong gawing katulong mo, sige papayag ako agad."Jhoanna teased.

Aiah laughed because of what Jhoanna said and flicked a little bit of water at Jhoanna's face.

"A girl as pretty as you, hindi ko hahayaang magtrabaho bilang katulong. Sisiguraduhin ko yan."Aiah called her pretty.

Usually, she would pass out from excitement if she still had feelings for Aiah, but no matter how hard she tried to bring back the feelings she had for her, it was gone. Aiah was looking at her eyes while smiling softly. What if she will pursue Aiah again to forget Stacey? But she suddenly brushed off that thought. It wasn't a good idea anyway.

But their conversation was interrupted when Taneo suddenly approached them, and this time he was holding a bottle of whiskey. Naka ilang alak na ba to?

"Aiah, someone was looking for you. May itatanong yata." Taneo sais.

"Who is it?"Aiah asked in curiosity.

Taneo just shrugged."I don't know. Puntahan mo nalang."

"Alright. Wait lang, Jho I'll be right back."Aiah said and smiled sweetly at before she left.

"Mind if I join you?"Jhoanna was surprised when someone suddenly spoke behind her. She thought she was alone, but Taneo was still behind her. And he is shirtless now. Because of that, Jhoanna felt uneasy. But she nodded and smiled at him. Taneo quickly went down into the water at tumabi kay Jhoanna. She was a little close to her, but Jhoanna tried not to assumed anything to it. Because she also knows Taneo and they have become friends. He even offered Jhoanna some wine but she quickly refused.

Because of that Taneo chugged his drink, it took him a few seconds to finish it immediately. Jhoanna hit his hand while laughing."Hoy dahan-dahan naman!"

"Galing ko diba?"It was obvious that he was drunk because of his actions, his eyes were clearly dazed from alcohol and she could smell off of him. She scrunched her nose because of the smell. It was disgusting.

"Anong magaling don?"

"Ano ba yan. Aren't you impressed by what I did?"Taneo held his chest as if he was hurt by what Jhoanna said to him. Jhoanna shook her head at her."Lasing kana, Taneo."
