" Jared "
I remained looking at him despite all the things running on my mind. He's not gonna blurt out something so random it does hit every questions I have. He is looking back at me but this time he is calm. It amazes me how quickly the dust settled. Like we havent spoken for months and kept grudges for some time but now here we are.
" This is not the right place Fabiery. And I wouldnt be that easy talking machine if thats what you are thinking. After all you've done to me. You think a simple kiss can make me talk ? I want more than that. "
He's gotta be kidding me. Why is he trying to sell that information in exchange for something when I have all the right to know it when I demand to.
" You cant use that as a bargain. And what do you mean you want more than that ? "
" you'll be surprise to know what you can do. In exchange for truth. I'll guarantee every question. It will keep you up at night until you heard the last word. "
" Why did it took you this long ? Were you happy seeing me struggle on my
own ? Are you enjoying the show I am putting myself for ? "
I raised my tone a bit. Because learning that they both know I'm pretending to be somebody is cruel. Like what is going on in their mind everytime I say my name is River Fabiery when they know it isnt my name. I hate them for this.
" Do I look like I was enjoying any of this ? Tingin mo ba pahihirapan ko pa ang sarili ko kung pwede naman kitang kuhanin na lang basta ? Fucking ask Lorrie why it has to be this way. Who else got the custody over you huh ? Was it me ? None of this will ever happen River if she let me have the custody. "
We are not going anywhere with this until we have Lorrie telling her side. Mariin ko munang ipinikit ang aking mata bago bumuntong hininga. Magtatalo lang kami ng walang katapusan kung ngayon namin ito pag uusapan at sa ganitong pagkakataon pa.
" Fine. I'll think about everything Jared. Go back there. "
" You've been thinking everything for a year now. You start to make no sense Fabiery. Cant you see how things revolve around you ? Nothing is slowing down. Get real and be decisive. "
He smirked at himself before turning to me. Marahan siyang umakbay sa akin at humalik sa gilid ng aking noo.
" Now that you got things to consider, might as well be mindful of your actions from now on. Well, shall we ? "
Pinilit niya akong maglakad habang naka akbay siya sa akin pero hindi ko talaga maisip kung anong muka ang ipapakita ko sa mga kasama ko sa oras na makita nilang kasama ko si Jared.
" Jared will you do me a favor this once. Mauna ka na at bumalik sa upuan mo. Wala akong maisip na idadahilan kung bakit kita kasama. "
" Wag mong gawing tanga ang mga kasama mo Fabiery. They dont wanna hear bullshit. Tell them you kissed me because it's obvious. "
Kumalas ako sa pagkaka hawak niya at naglakad na lang din. Wala na akong pakialam kung sino pa ang tumingin. I bet no one will dare ask me anything.
Well to my surprise, there wasnt a lot of people when I got back. May ilang mga teammates si Jared dito at tulad ng inaasahan ko, lumingon nga silang lahat sa amin at kanya kanyang ngisi. Naupo ako at naabutan si Carlie at Bridgette na natira dito sa amin.
" where is Jamie ? " tanong ko bigla at lumingon silang dalawa sa akin.
" We thought she was with you ? " Bridgette responded with a frown.
No way. I thought she went back. I knew I should have followed her. But where would she be if not here ?
" saan ba kayo galing ? and I see you get back here with Jared but not Jamie. So where is she ? "
