More Than Yesterday

Chapter 6

"Ergyl! Hey!" I sobbed out of deep sadness. It took a few moments to catched my breath at a later time and whispered a response to Iñigo. I knew his voice, it was a bit husky and sexy.

I felt the environment spinning so I desperately scrubbed the unpleasant memories.

When Iñigo came beside me, he quickly rolled his eyes and ran his hand through his hair. He was deliberately annoyed.

I knew I was in trance but I still managed to realized how Greek God my best friend was.

"Where have you been? Are you crying? Who the hell made you cry? Do I know him? C'mon, let's find out that freaking guy. I'll just give him a bang!" I was threatened when he gave me a menacing look. If looks could kill, I'm in the danger list now.

And his list of questions? It was like he didn't see me after so many decades. The result of having a possessive Best Friend.

"N-no. We don't have to do that. I-I'm fine. Where do you want to go? Leggo!" I searched for an excuse. I knew he was still angry and want to complain but I didn't hear anything from his mouth. He just spoke quietly through his clenched teeth.

"Are you sure you're alright. . . it was like your. . . ahm. . . nevermind" He argued and he left in a huffed.

I let my legs worked and hurriedly chased him, to be sure I hold his hand. Iñigo stopped for a while and entwined our hands.

"Sure thing, Iñigo. I am 101% okay so don't be upset now. Okay?" He never dithered again.

We did our friendship rituals like going out like nothing ever happened. Everyone thought we were in a date but for us, it doesn't have any other meaning. We did this many times.

There were times we fight, we were against with each other and disagree on whom should decide. But all that craps quickly stopped existing when I used my irresistible traits. He will never pause momentarily to treat me everything I want.

The secret was, I am born to be natural irresistable. With an effortless puppy eyes and tightly pursed lips, Iñigo will never doubt nor think twice to follow me. I'm the boss, in short, but I'll just do it sometimes. I don't want to abuse him. He was still a friend of mine.

We're here at Starbucks currently sipping a coffee in front of Iñigo's laptop. He's been watching Alfonso's game yesterday. This guy was such a bitter almond. Just because they broke up, he don't have guts to be happy and just contented in life to be forever bittersweet.

The true meaning of love is, if your love was happy with anybody else, you just have to be happy, then. Being bitter doesn't have a space in humans' heart.

But Iñigo was the only exception. He keeps complaining about the girl who was obviously flirting Alfonso.

This girl was so familiar. Ah! I knew it! She was the girl who was head over heels in love with Iñigo. The one that will taste my sweet revenge but saved by my next class.

So, what was the fuss all about? She completely moved on to Iñigo and presently hitting Alfonso?

That girl was so damn shit— I mean a dimwit. Something was amiss at her. She's a psycho girl, probably.

"If I could turn back the time, I wouldn't stop you in your sweet revenge because this girl deserves it, really" He was in all swivet. I can sense that he was in a state of extreme anger.

I teased him by filling the air with my playful whistles. Iñigo heard it and got annoyed so he slammed his laptop angrily.

"Oh! I almost forgot! Here's your iPhone, bitter gourd" He complained loudly on what I nicknamed to him. How I love irritating him playfully.

I didn't ask about the suitor thingy I saw in his iPhone. I don't want to irritate him more.

"Just move on, Iñigo. There were so many girls in this campus who were willing to be the princess in your castle but you were so choosy" My idea totally disgusted him.

"Or just choose a player again. He can be a football player, or a volleyball player or. . . or a badminton player. You love dating players but they just playing down your heart" I will fill his day again with my usual unwanted homilies.

"Or like in cliché movies. . . that you will take your revenge to someone close with him. His teammate was enough! You will make him jealous by doing cheesy moments and he will be jealous and then begged if you could give him a second chance. And because your stupidity, you will accept him again like nothing happened. The end of the goddamn story" But a point of doing cheesy moments with a teammate was totally not a good idea but such a disgusting idea.

Seeing a couple particularly with a courtly faces was such a huge decrease to Greek Gods.

"What if I don't want? I just want. . ." Iñigo gave me a seductive grin and gradually leaning his body on mine.

I glared at him. I hated that he was tall. In what he was doing now, I'm gradually become to shrink. He started to move towards me until there was an inch left. I stared at him with impossibly wide eyes. The way he was looking at me seductively made me vomit. He leaned closer and closer until. . .

His thumb touched the left side corner of my lips and wiped away the icing. I stared for a long time and got the idea that I was eating a dessert.

"If I just bring my DSLR, I wouldn't passed the moment that I don't have a souvenir on your odd face" He laughed. Iñigo was such a big bully.

"Let's just get out of here, you fat oaf!" Well, bully for him. That was a bully idea that wrung my heart.

But despite of being bully and somewhat a clumsy guy, I agreed the fact that he was a very kind person you never regret to be with.

"Nope! You'll stay here" Iñigo said emphasizing the p sound.

"And why? You'll leave without me?" Iñigo didn't talk back and just lugged his laptop to it's own place.

"Hey! I'm talking to you! Don't turn your back whilst I'm talking" Iñigo walked away like I'm the host who interviewed an actor and committed a mistake so he just walked out.

I had a trouble wrenching myself away from Iñigo's jaw-dropping farewell.
