DEL FRANCO BROTHERS: Alexis (The Charmer) (PUBLISHED) (COMPLETED)

Chapter Seven

Kanina ko pa hindi tinitignan at kinakausap si Alex habang si Alex naman simpleng oo at hindi lang yung naririnig kong lumalabas sa bibig nito, tanging si Adien lang yung nagsasalita saming tatlo habang naglalakad kami papuntang parking lot.

Kung wala dito si Adien, It will be so awkward! I frowned when Adien suddenly stopped walking and turned to face us.

"I'll catch up with you guys later, may ibibigay lang ako saglit sa lalaking yon." Sabay turo ni Adien sa lalaking nakatayo sa hindi kalayuan mula samin.

Hindi ba marunong magbasa ng mood tong Adien nato. Tama bang iwan kami. Anong gusto nyang mangyari? Magpatayan kami ng kapatid nya?

"Oops, bago ko makalimutan." Kinuha nalang ni Adien bigla yung susi ng sasakyan sa kamay ni Alex.

"Just to make sure na hindi nyo ko iiwan." Nakangising sabi nito kay Alex, pagkatapos nitong kumindat sakin.

I swear, I'll kill him later dahil alam naman nito na naiinis akong kausapin tong Kuya nya pero iniwan iwan pa rin nya ko kasama tong grumpy man nato at may gana pa talaga syang kumindat kindat? Sarap tusukin yung mata!

Naiwan tuloy kaming nakatunganga ni Alex malapit sa kotse habang tinitignan si Adien na masayang nakikipag usap sa lalaking nilapitan nito.

I'm not even throwing a single glance at Alex and neither of us saying anything kaya nagulat nalang ako ng bigla nalang pumunta si Alex sa harapan ko.

"So." Alex says awkwardly, clearing his throat.

"So?" I repeat, raising my eyebrow. I was giving him the biggest death glare of my life. May pa-so, so pa sya dyan na nalalaman.

He drew a deep breath. He grabbed my hand at hinila nalang ako basta basta palapit sa kanya. "I'm sorry." He whispered in my ear.

I scoffed but blushed furiously dahil ang lapit masyado ng mukha ni Alexis. I tried to push him away but he didn't budge.

Instead, he wrapped his hands around my waist, pulled me very close against him. "I'm sorry Sweetheart. I've had a terrible day tapos dinagdagan pa ni Adien. Forgive me?" He pleaded as he looked straight into my eyes.

Damn it! Unfair. Unfair. So fucking not fair! Who has the guts to resist that face?

I heaved a sigh of resignation. "Next time na gamitan mo ulit ako ng ganong tono, you'll be sorry." I stated, lightly punching his shoulder.

Magpapakipot pa ba ako eh tunaw na yung galit ko. Damn his gorgeous face!

He gave me a warm smile. "Thanks Sweetheart." He said, hugging me so tight.

We both jumped in surprise ng basta basta nalang sumulpot at yumakap saming dalawa ni Alex si Adien. "Group hug?" Adien asked with a grin. "Ok na kayo? Come on, uwi na tayo."

Napailing at napangiti nalang ako kay Adien dahil base sa sinabi nito, sinadya talaga nito na iwan kami ni Alex kanina.

Adien can be so considerate if he wants to.

"Give me back my key Ade. I won't let you drive my car." Alex said, snatching his car key on Adien's hand.

"Oh! Come on Alex. You owe me." Parang bata na sabi ni Adien dito.

"Come on Sweetheart, don't mind him." Nakangisi lang na sabi sakin ni Alex habang hinahatak ako paupo sa passenger seat. Nang makaupo at makapag seat belt na ako saka palang lumibot si Alex papunta sa driver's seat. How sweet is that?

Bubulong bulong naman na pumasok si Adien sa back seat habang natatawa lang si Alex buong byahe sa pagiging bugnutin ni Adien.

I shook my head in disbelief and amusement.
