You Are Mine [ManXBoy] BOOK 1

Fifteen: I See The Light

Riri's POV:

That moment na sinagip niya ako, it just deepened my like for him. I was infatuated to him but I never showed signs. Naalala ko rin yung sinabi ni Christian sa akin na never had attraction to his brother. It's human instinct na alam ko na yung rason. But I can't help myself from liking him. That night when we were at a hotel, I was scared as sh*t and nervous. Baka atakihin ko siya bigla at gahasain. I have needs, I'm gay and he was hot. I remembered when he wrapped his arms in my waist, it's my cue to hold him just that night. He volunteered and I sleep on his chest. It's surreal though feeling that thing. I know wala akong chance but atleast were friends.

Napakabusy namin for this past weeks. There were bunch of requirements and exams at halos hindi na nga kami nagouting ng mga bff's ko. Pero may pagkakataon na grupo kami lahat sa research at kailangan naming magsama-sama to write our proposals and documentations. So I offered them na doon na sa condo ni Christian mamalagi. They bought foods and helped me cleaning the condo after we went on with our research.

Tungkol naman kay Christian, we have constant communication through messenger. Nag cam to cam kami at nagchikahan buong gabi. Gabi dito pero doon umaga. So lugi ako sa kanya since I always got no chance to sleep. But I want to see him though. He shared his experiences at mga natutunan niya sa bago niyang job. Sabi niya he will send money to me that I refused pero he always win and insisted to withdraw it tomorrow.

Sabi ko sa kanya bahala ka. He said it's my promise to you na hindi kita pababayaan as your brother. I was crying when I heard him said that. Para na ngang nakalimutan na ako ng aking kapatid. Siya lang kasi yung sandalan ko after our family disown me for being gay. Hindi ko iyon makakalimutan at hindi ko ito sinabi sa mga kaibigan ko pati kay Christian. Kaya malaking parte si Christian sa akin despite refusing him to be my boyfriend.

Ethan was always there to help and care for me too. Minsan nga may nambastos sa akin at inayawan ko ang kanyang alok, nakita niya yung mark of tight grip sa aking braso. He went crazy asking me where did I get this and that. I told him the truth and knew who did that since sinabi ko sa kanya ang itsura at nakita ko din ang i.d niya at nalaman ko ang pangalan. After that incident a couple of days he told me that guy just kicked out of the school. I never contradict him kasi he always win and I was scared of him if he's really pissed or angry. He was a beast since parati siyang nag gigym so, well built yung katawan niya.

I was at the mall buying groceries nang may nakita akong familiar figure. It was Ethan together with this beautiful girl. Plano ko sanang iapproach sila pero nang nakita ko silang naghahalikan, I rather not. I felt a pang of jealous since alam niyo naman diba na may gusto ako sa kanya.

I felt broken, hindi naman kami pero the fact na we are super close now.

I hurriedly went to cashier para bayaran ang mga binili ko nang may tumapik sa akin. He was a friend of my sister na nadate ko. Plano ko na sana siyang sagutin nang malaman kong pupunta siya ng Baguio to work.

"riri?, hey. kumusta ka na. ?" sabi niya sabay lagay ng mga binili niyang grocery sa counter.

"Lance?!, okay lang, ngayon lang kita nakita ah!. ikaw ba kumusta ka na?

"ok pa naman. Aalis ka na?". Sabi niya.

"oo eh. Mauna na ako."

"wait sabay nalang tayo. "

I waited for him pagkatapos niyang magbayad.

"kwentuhan muna tayo. Starbucks? may treat"

I was having double mind but I told him yes afterall. We went to starbucks at pumwesto sa labas. Mas pinili ko na dito nalang kami sa labas umupo. He went inside to order at bumalik dala ang aming drinks.
