Inip na napapasulyap ako kay Zero. Isang oras na ang lumipas at narito pa rin kami sa edsa.
Siya naman katulad pa rin ng mga nakalipas na araw. He's been quiet and a bit cold.
"Can I have one?" akmang aabutin ko na ang mint candy sa kanyang center console ng sagutin niya ako ng "No."
I creased my forehead. Pati ba mint candy ipagdadamot ng isang ito? What the heck.
"Pahingi lang ng isa," kinuha ko pa rin iyon. I looked at his face when he grabbed my hand with the candies.
"Why is it so hard for you to listen? To follow?" pigil ang boses na tanong niya. "Is it because my dad is the one who's paying you? Kung ako ba ang magpapasahod sa'yo, makikinig ka na ba sa akin? Susunod ka na ba sa mga sasabihin ko?"
"I just want to taste the candy, because I feel sleepy. What the hell is your problem?" kalmadong tanong ko sa kanya. "Kung ayaw mong mamigay sabihin mo lang."
"You always have a smart comeback or play dumb like you usually do," his face hardened.
"Candy lang iyan, Zero. Hindi mo ikakahirap 'yan," bawi ko sa aking kamay. "O ayan, isaksak mo sa baga mo!" malakas kong inihampas iyon sa kanyang dibdib. The pack of candies fell onto his lap.
My cellphone rang and I answered it immediately. Naramdaman ko rin ang paggalaw ng sasakyan. It was way better than picking a fight with him.
"Yes, agent Kairo," sagot ko. I faced the other side. Para maiwasan ang pagmumukha ni Zero. "I'm—"
My eyes flew to him when he grabbed my phone and turned it off.
"I'm talking to you. At least have the decency to pay attention," he said, annoyed.
"Give me back my phone."
"What if I don't?" he arched his brow.
"Give me my phone back, Zero," sa isip ko ay nagsisimula na akong magbilang hanggang sampu.
"Get it if you can," aniya at inilagay sa kabilang kamay, saka huminto muli ang sasakyan.
"I said give me my phone back!" paasik kong sabi sa kanya, hinila ko ang aking seatbelt at lumapit para makuha ang aking cellphone.
I tried to steal it but was careful not to get too close to him again. The memories of that night with him were still fresh in my mind.
He was using his muscular body to hide my phone, so I didn't have a choice but to get closer to him. But I still failed. Mas lumapit pa ako para maabot iyon ngunit gamit ang kanyang mahabang bisig at braso ay nagawa niyang iiwas iyon sa akin.
Sa sobrang inis, inalis ko ang aking seatbelt. Wala na akong pakialam kung halos mayakap ko na siya makuha lamang iyon. Pareho kaming napahinto nang mapansin ang aming posisyon, siya na nakaangat ang isang bisig. At ako... ako na nakakandong na sa kanya.
Palipat lipat ang kanyang tingin sa aking mga mata at sa aking labi.
"You really wanna get your phone," he said, wetting his lips.
I swallowed and nodded. "Yes, so give me back my phone."
"Gusto ko sana..." aniya at sinulyapan ang aking cellphone. "But I am enjoying our position," he looked back at me and moved a little, his eyes darkened.
I clutched his shoulders to support my body. Muli na naman siyang gumalaw, so it felt like we were grinding against each other.
"Can you feel it?" he asked in a husky voice, I saw the lust in his eyes. "That's how I feel every time you get near me, or even when your soft, luscious skin simply touches mine."
