The Arranged Marriage (Under Edit)

Chapter 17

Yvonne

"Yvonne...Are you here with us?" ani Trix at nagsnap ng fingers niya.

Natauhan ako bigla at umiling iling. Napaupo ako sa sobrang gulat at impormasyon na nalaman ko. Sino ba ang hindi? Wala atang plano si papa na sabihin sa akin na isa siyang FORMER MAFIA? I didn't even know he was a gambler kung hindi ko lang siya sinundan sa isang private casino. Tsaka si tito Alexis? What the hell? Who wouldn't be shocked about it? Geez! Nakakastress!

"Well that explains it." Tumayo ako at tiningnan sila. Kumunot ang mga noo nila habang nakatingin sa akin, confused about what I stated.

"Explains what?" Christine asked and grabbed my arm. "Tell us."

"That we own a secret firearm laboratory." I should've known. Hindi man lang ako naghinala kung ano ang rason kung bakit iyon ipinatayo ni lolo at papa. But, is Lolo also a mafia?

"What?" Gulat na tanong nila. "Firearms?! Tito owns a firearm lab? Are you okay with that?" Tumango naman ako bilang pagsasangayon.

"So you're not afraid?" tanong ni Cherry na umiiling. "I haven't traced tito Emmanuel about the firearms and its lab."

"I'm not afraid nor angry." Bumuntong hininga ako. "He is my papa. It's okay, I guess?" I shrugged and we walked.

"Let's go back to the topic. This conversation is way too serious." Trix blew a long but relieved sigh.

"Paano ba kasi kayo nagka-ON ng dash na yun?" tanong ni Cherry na parang naiinis. "I still don't like him."

"Sa bar ng loyal and close friend ko na friend rin pala niya." Natatawang sinabi ni Trix na parang nagfaflashback ng ilang segundo.

"Sinong friend ba yan hah?" curious na tanong ni Christine. Sa tono ng boses niya naramdaman kong may pagseselos iyon. Of course, we're friends from the moment we came to this world.

"Si Carl." Trix fixed her hair at humarap sa salamin na kinuha niya sa nagsasalamin ng bakla sa gilid. "I'm so pretty. I would marry myself. Yeah?"

"Lalaki?!" sabay na tanong ng dalawa.

"No actually beki siya but I prefer calling him Carl. He is Carlisle, he's hot but gay. Nasayangan nga ako." Bumuntong hininga siya at hindi na ako nakapagpigil sa tawa ko.

"Saan ba yan naka-aral at mabuti ba yang baklang yan sa academics at friendship?" Christine said and rolled her eyes.

"I'm sure mabait yan at hindi plastic." Cherry said with an acerbic and sarcastic tone.

"Dito and yes he's good."Trix rolled her eyes at linagay ang kamay sa bewang. "Bakit ba ayaw niyo sa kanya? Are you jealous?" the both of them just looked at each other and shrugged. "Actually nandoon siya." She pointed someone at a long distance.

The actually looks straight and manly. He has this effortless, messy dark brown hair. A sharp and tight jaw. Those gray eyes that can steal people's attention like a camera. Those thick eyebrows which is completely natural! And that smirk his wearing when he is with his guy friends that can make any girl even guys question the whole existence of beauty.

Damn, Is he even a human? He's the perfection of men's beauty standards.

"Carl hali ka dito!!" sigaw ni Trix and wave her hands all over.

"NGAYON LANG AKO NAGDASAL NA SANA MAGKAROON NA AKO NG JOWA NA KATULAD NIYA AT STRAIGHT!" pasigaw na bulong ni Cherry.

I held her hand and pinched it. "Maybe he's not a cross-dresser. Baka closeta lang." bulong ko naman at tumango ito. "Uso na closeta ngayon."
