Deliberate Moves

Chapter 6

Pinagiinit talaga ng babaeng yun yung ulo ko. Bumalik ako sa bahay and walang tao pag balik ko. Nakasalubong ko si Manang at sinabi niyang nagpapahinga sila Mama kaya umakyat ako sa kwarto ko. Hindi naman nagtagal kumatok at binuksan ni Dani yung pinto sa room ko.

Can I come in? Tanong niya at tumango ako.

What do you want? Tanong ko.

Wala naman. I just wanna see you. Sabi niya.

Come on spill it. Sabi ko.

Do you like Ate Ly? Tanong niya sa akin.

Of course not. Bakit ko naman magugustuhan yung malditang babaeng yun? Tanong ko.

She's super nice kaya. Sabi niya.

Hindi kaya. Ano ba kasi talagang kailangan mo. You're not here just to ask me that. Sabi ko.

Can we go out again tonight? Tanong niya.

Why? Saka baka hindi pumayag sila Mama. Sabi ko.

I'm bored and I want to see my friends that I haven't seen for a while. Sabi niya.

So anong balak mong gawin sa akin chaperone mo? Tanong ko.

No. I'll invite Ate Ly so may kasama ka while I enjoy the company of my friends. Sabi niya.

Let me think about it. Sabi niya.

I know you want to. Sige na please. Sabi niya.

Fine but don't tell Alyssa that i'll be with you tonight. Mainit ang dugo sa akin ng babaeng yun and we'll bring Matt and Gab to look after you. Sabi ko.

Why do I need them if you're with me? Tanong niya.

Because Alyssa and I are going somewhere. Sabi ko.

I knew you like her. Sabi niya.

I don't. I will just teach her a lesson. No one messes with Kiefer Ravena. Sabi ko.

Scary. Sabi niya pero tumatawa.

What's funny? I'm serious. Sabi ko.

You are. Hindi ka niya type kuya. She told mom. Accept the fact that you can't always get what you want. Sabi niya.

I'll prove you wrong. I always get what I want. Sabi ko.

Fine. If you can't prove it, you'll pay for my honeymoon in Paris. Sabi niya.

Call and if I did, you'll cancel your wedding. Sabi ko.

That's so unfair. Sabi niya.

A bet is a bet. Bakit wala kang tiwala sa manok mo? Tanong ko sa kanya.

Call but only if you can make her fall in love with you. Sabi niya.

Easy peasy. Sabi ko at lumabas na si Dani.

I never backed down from a challenge. Ako pa ba? they will not call me ruthless if duwag ako. And even without a bet i will still make that girl fall in love with me and when she does I will make her regret messing with me. Napangiti tuloy ako magisa sa mga plano ko.

I wasn't surprised when Dani called and invited me to go out tonight and I'm sure na kasama niya si Kiefer dahil binilin niya sa akin not to bring anybody. Nagrent na ako ng condo kasi baka iinsist nila Dani na ihatid minsan eh hindi nila pwedeng sa bahay ng mga parents ako nakatira. Kaya kami nagkita kanina ni Kuya kasi nagdate kami with ate Coleen and the kids.
