CHAPTER 28

After dinner, Cole excused himself to do a phone call. Aiah took the chance to talk to her father dahil sa inasal nito kanina.

"Dad you shouldn't talk to Cole like that. He's trying hard to build his business naman don't make him feel that way." Aiah said politely.

"Make him feel what? I told you Aiah I am not trying to imply something. Not unless it's true." Antonio said.

"Antonio stop. Baka kung saan pa mauwi yan." Marylou said.

"Yes dad I guess that's enough. Hindi lang si Cole ang nasasaktan dito. Pati na rin si Aiah." Ian said.

"Thank you." Aiah mouthed.

Ian smiled back at his sister.

After dinner, Cole and Aiah decided to go home.

"Aiah ihahatid nalang muna kita sa condo mo. I won't stay there tonight." Cole said while driving.

"Aiah? Aiah nalang?" takang tanong ni Aiah.

"Oh come on don't make it a big deal." Cole said then scoffed.

"Akala mo ba di ko napapansin yung mga ina-act mo lately ha Cole? What's going on with you? Hindi na kita kilala!" Aiah said.

"Can you please shut up Aiah im driving!" Cole said angrily.

"Yung kaninang umaga ha, sino yun?! Who is Chynna ha?!" Aiah said.

Cole didn't answered back, he knows kung saan papunta ang usapan na yun. He remained silent para hindi pa lumaki ang away.

"Ano bakit hindi ka sumasagot ha?" Aiah said. Cole stepped on the brake so hard.

"Aiah can you please shut up for a while? Si Chynna client ko yun okay?! Ano ba naman pag dudahan mo yung tao?!" Cole said.

"Paanong hindi ako mag dududa ha?! Lately nag iba na yung ugali mo. Hindi na ikaw yung Cole na minahal ko!" Aiah said.

"If yan yung tingin mo okay fine I'm sorry pero si Chynna? Wala lang yun." Cole said.

"Talaga lang huh? Baka siya si BABE?" Aiah said then put an emphasis to the word "babe"

"Alam mo Aiah manahimik ka nalang pwede? Or better yet bumaba ka nalang ng kotse ko!" Cole said.

Aiah is shocked with the actions of Cole, she is too stunned to speak and she didn't realize that her tears are already flowing.

"Ano?! Ano pang hinihintay mo? If you won't listen to my explanations umalis ka nalang." Cole said.

Aiah can't help herself anymore, she slapped Cole so hard before going out of the car.

"Aiah im so—" Cole was about to speak when Aiah slammed the car door shut.

"Aiah!" Cole said as he went out of the car.

"Wag mokong sundan Cole! Just leave me alone! Ito gusto mo diba? Sinusunod lang kita!" aiah said.

"You always shut me down when you're mad. Imbis na ayusin natin tinutulak mo ako palayo and babalik tayo sa dati na parang walang nangyari.." Aiah said while crying.

"Aiah please I'm sorry. Umuwi na tayo delikado dito it's already late." Cole said while following Aiah.

"I said leave the fuck alone Cole. Lumayas ka muna sa paningin ko." Aiah said while continue walking.

Aiah is right, Cole always shuts her off tuwing may misunderstanding sila. Okay naman sa una ang relasyon nila but when Cole got into business with his new business partners nag bago ang ugali nito.
