Dusk Till Dawn: Forever (Book 3)

Chapter 6

. . .

"I hope nag enjoy ka" nakangiting sabi ni Althea kay Jade. Jade just nodded giving her a 'kilig" smile. Kinikilig sya sa binibigay na ngiti ni Althea sa kanya, however, normal lang para kay Althea ang ngiting yon, walang ibig sabihin.

They both starred each other then Althea finally mumbles,"And, uhm, I'm sorry for riding on your car. I mean, imbes na ako ang may dala ng kotse, eh nakikisakay ako sayo. I just don't know how to drive pa." Althea said shyly.

"It's okay. Pero you should learn how to drive para sa work mo. May sasakyan ka ba?" tanong ni Jade.

"Uuuhh" Althea closes her eyes thinking if she really had a vehicle.

"I think, I think I had one." sagot ni Althea, but unsure kung meron talaga sya. Because from the first day she started to work and act as a human, kay Batchi or Wila lang sya nakikisabay nang ride, or she manage to get a taxi.

"Ahh, hehe. Bye." chuckled ni Jade.

"Bye, good night Jade"

Pareho nilang nilapit ang kanilang mga mukha to give each other a friendly goodbye kiss, unfortunately, muntikan na nila mahalikan ang isa't isa. They stopped and move their heads backward.

Jade make an awkward laugh while Althea's face slightly turn red.

"Sige, bye." awkward na natatawang sabi ni Jade.

"Bye" nakangiting sagot ni Althea. Couldn't help but beam a deep blush on her face.

Jade was about to ride inside her car when David's car parked beside's Althea. Althea felt curious, pero hindi pinansin ang kotseng tumigil.

"Jade? Oh, hi Althea?" David greeted. Athea just gave a quick smile then ignore David's presence.

"Saan kayo galing?" Nakangiting tanong ni David, tumingin sya kay Althea then back to Jade.

"Anywhere. Gumala, kumain" sagot ni Jade at nag glance ng konti kay Althea na busy sa cellphone nya at hindi na sila pinapansin.

David just nodded and noticed Althea standing, ignoring them.

"Althea?" David called out. Althea gave him a quick glance and answers him a "Hmm?"

"Uuwi ka na?" tanong ni David at tumingin kay Jade then back to Althea.

"Yes" matipid na sagot ni Althea and gave him another quick force smile. However, kumunot naman ang noo ni Jade sa attitude na pinapakita ni Althea kay David.

Althea doesn't want to act rude towards David. In fact she want to entertain the guy. But the problem is her mind and heart, feeling nya nag co-collide. Some part of her mind, she's getting annoyed and pissed towards David. Dahil bigla nalang itong sumulpot sa tabi nila ni Jade. It's just that, she don't like David around when she's with Jade. Sa puso naman nya, she could feel something that stings into it, like what she was feeling from her head. She could feel a spear stabbing her heart kapag nakikitang masaya si Jade sa tabi ni David. Maybe she could feel more stings if she does have a heart. Kasi lagi nyang sinasabi wala syang puso, but a stone heart, meron sya.

"I'll gonna go park my car inside. I'll be back in a second." biglang sabi ni Jade kay David. Tumango si David. Nag glance pa si Jade kay Althea pero hindi ito nakatingin sa kanya.

"Aahh. Kamusta ang araw? Sulit ba? " nakangiting tanong ni David. May ibig sabihin sa sinabi. Althea just nodded, hindi aware na may ibang meaning ang pag tatanong ni David. David look away, tatakbo naman si Jade palapit sa kanila.
