The Unexpected Bride (On-Going)

Chapter 32- Wish granted

Kimberly Arisha's P.O.V

I was holding my phone. Andrei's calling me for somewhat reason. I prayed it would be important.

"Hello?"

(Psttt, tulungan mo nga ako.)

"What?" napaisip tuloy ako. Heck! Ito na kaya 'yon? Well I hope so!

(Na–realize ko kasi na mali ako. Na may girlfriend na 'yung lalaki tapos ngayun kailangan kong bumawi kay Tracy...)

Bingo!

"It's about time, Andrei." hindi ko mapigilang matuwa. Hay. I thought they were using the pride until the end. Good thing hindi. I'm happy for Tracy at nakaahon na si Andrei from drowning in jealousy.

(Uh yeah pero ano, Pakausap nga kay Angelo, dali.)

Napatingin ako sa gilid ko kung saan kumakain si Angelo. I finished already while he still eats. It's friday today and nasa bahay na kami. I don't think I should bother him kasi mukhang busy siya at... Dammit... I'm shy.

"Uhm..." Andrei! Kung tawagan mo na lang kaya siya sa phone niya? Ugh!

(Bigay mo na.)

Dammit Andrei. I know what you plan to do. Do I have any choice? Bwisit talaga.

Unti unti akong lumapit kay Angelo. He looked at me nung nas harap niya na ako. Then he smiled. Uh, what?

"Ano gusto mo? Kiss?" He teased me. K-kiss?

My eyes grew big. Honestly, I was shocked. It's been a long time since he last teased me. Wait, why is it such a big deal for me? Hindi ba dapat natutuwa ako because he stopped teasing me? So... Susungitan ko na lang siya? Alright. I can't let him see my emotions. But heck, matatago ba 'to? Ugh. Ang hirap!

"As if. Uhm... Si Andrei. He said he wants to talk to you." napaiwas ako ng tingin. I was relieved at kahit papaano ay nasabi ko 'yon na mukhang mataray. Well, I'm good at hiding my emotions... Pero hindi kay Angelo. Damn. Nahalata niya kaya? Oh please at sana hindi.

"Oh? Bakit? Sa girlfriend mo?"

Hindi muna ako tumingin or nakinig. They have personal business I guess.

Later on, they finished their talk. Angelo returned me my phone. I looked at him dahil mukhang may sasabihin siya sakin. I'm interested kung ano man 'yon. Ghad. Some things did really changed? Bakit dati ay wala man lang akong pakialam sa sasabihin niya?

"Bukas daw, idedecorate daw natin itong bahay gamit ang mga kakornihan ni Andrei. Papuntahin mo daw dito si Tracy." he said to me.

"Uhm... Sure, anything for the two." I said.

I didn't say anything after. Pero siya... He keeps on smiling at me. He's been doing that thing since we've first met but now.... It's not creepy it just... Makes me very conscious. Stop staring!

"Why?" tanong ko.

Umiling siya then he smiled while looking down. What is it now? Angelo, stop making me feel like this... So nervous, conscious, confused.

"Wala... Uhm... Ganda mo pala. — panik na ako!" He said at umakyat ng madalian.

Uminit ang buong mukha ko for I don't know what reason. Ganda? What was that for?  Heck... This feeling in my stomach makes me sick... But in a good way I think...
