Arranged Marriage To My Boss (Completed)

Chapter 13

Nanlamig ang buong katawan ko sa sinabi niya. This was another first for me. Palagi nalang ba ako masusurpresa sa mga ginagawa niya? Sabagay, we were in a getting know each other stage.

We walked on the court, I wandered my eyes. Hindi parin ako makapaniwala sa nakikita. He pushed something and the above was moving slowly, transforming it into a covered court.

"Amazing isn't it?" bulong ni Zach. Lumakad siya papunta sa area kung nasaan nakalagay ang mga bola.

"Alam kong mayaman kayo but I never thought that a place like this existed," komento ko.

Kumuha si Zach ng bola and he started dribbling it. Kailan paba ako huling naglaro ng basketball? Sa gamezone lang naman madalas pero iyong huli talaga na may kalaban back in college pa.

I remembered how I always would be out of breath whenever I ran half way to the court. Ganoon yata talaga kapag hindi mahilig ma-involve sa physical activity, mabilis hingalin. Pakiramdam ko tuloy ang tanda ko na. I couldn't even do exercise straight, I would be resting the next few weeks after doing one.

"Shall we play?" he asked me eagerly.

Pinasa niya ang bola saakin. Hindi ko mapigilan ang hindi mapangisi. Hinubad ko ang suot kong heels at nilagay sa gilid.

"Walang dayaan ah."

"I don't cheat, Mrs. Esqueza," he said seducingly.

I eyed him confusingly. Binalik ko ang bola sakanya. "Is that part of the plan? You calling me that so I'll go gaga over you?"

"You know I don't need that." He smiled and kept dribbling the ball.

"So sinasabi mo na magaling ka?"

"What exactly do you mean?" he asked innocently.

"Magaling mag-shoot," sabi ko habang tinatali ang buhok ko.

He grinned. "I'm a good shooter, wanna try?"

Nang matali ng tuluyan ang buhok, lumapit ako sakanya. "Then let's see, Mr. Esqueza. Kung gaano ka kagaling mag-shoot."

Hindi siya umatras sa pakikipagtitigan ko. "Don't underestimate me, you won't be here standing with me if you tried it before."

Kumunot ang noo ko. "Teka, bakit parang iba na pinag-uusapan natin dito?"

"Huh?" He creased his forehead too. "Is that so? I thought you're asking me if I'm a good shooter. Because I am, Iris. Believe me, I am."

Tumawa ako. "Double meaning ba iyan? I can think about it, kung ikaw naman gagawa ng first move."

He shook his head. "I don't do that and never will be." Inabot niya saakin ang bola. "Do you want to play? Or are you afraid now?"

Kinuha ko iyon. "Afraid? No. I don't think so. Sa office pwede pa pero dito? Hindi kita aatrasan."

He took a step backward. "That's my girl."

My heart danced with joy. "You better watch and learn, Mr. Esqueza."

Binato ko sakanya ang bola at agad naman niyang nasalo iyon. Pumameywang ako ng nakakaloko.

"Let's start?" sabi ko sakanya.

He slowly dribbled. "You know the rules, the one who gets to shoot this ball on that ring wins. Loser need to strip atleast one clothe or item you have."

This was his playful side. Was he like this with other girls? He was trying to take advantage of this situation. Not that I'm complaining. Gusto ko rin naman makita ng buo ang katawan niya. Ha!
