Reforming the Villainess (Reincarnation #1)

Chapter 13

Hi! Someone suggested that I should create a Facebook group page or a Facebook group chat for the readers of Reforming The Villainess, but I am a bit hesitant. If I were to create one, doon na ako magsesend ng updates ng RTV and interaction with me na rin. (Omg, I'm too embarrassed to say this. I am not used to this xD) 

Let me know your thoughts about this! You can directly comment here or send me a direct message here on Wattpad. Lovelots <333

AUSTIN WAITED UNTIL I finally calmed down.

Sumisinghot pa ako dahil nahihiya na ako na nabasa ko na ng luha ang shirt niya tapos malalagyan ko pa ng uhog. Kumuha ako ng tissue mula sa bag ko at walang kaabog-abog na suminga doon.

Natigilan ako sa ginagawa ko nang marinig ko ang mahinang pagtawa ni Austin. Pinunasan ko ang ilong ko at tinapon ang tissue sa malapit na basurahan sa amin.

Hindi pa rin nawawala ang ngisi niya pagbalik ko. Tinanggal ko na ang hoodie na pinasuot niya sa akin dahil naiinitan na ako at tapos naman na akong umiyak.

"Why are you laughing by yourself?" I asked.

"Nothing," he replied then he snickered, again.

I gave him a deadpan look and he loudly laughed because of it. My forehead creased.

"Okay, okay. People are usually shy blowing off their nose in front of someone, you know," Austin said.

My face heated in embarrassment when I remembered what I did earlier. "S-Sorry."

"No! It's alright, Brielle."

"No. It's not about that . . ." I trailed off. "I'm sorry you had to see me crying. You missed your class pa, because of me." I lowered my head.

"Brielle. Look at me."

Marahan kong inangat ang mga mata ko at tinignan siya. Wala na ang ngisi na nakapaskil sa mukha niya. Austin is always smiling and it's my first time seeing him THIS serious again after we hang out at the mall before.

"I . . . I'm your f-friend, right?" he stuttered a bit.

"Yes."

"Then, this kind of thing doesn't matter to me. We're friends, and it's normal for friends to comfort their friends whenever they have problems," he reasoned. "But I won't force you in telling—"

"Do you think it's a good idea to grant someone's favor even if you don't agree with it?"

"But is what you did right?"

"I don't know," I pondered.

"Are you happy?" he asked that made me stop.

"No," I honestly responded.

Simula nang pag-uusap namin ni Jamila, ngayon na lang ako ulit naging totoo sa sarili kong nararamdaman. I've been suppressing everything since that day. It felt like I was silenced forever. Pakiramdam ko, ano mang gawin ko, may masamang kapalit 'yon.

"This is about North."

"What?" My head immediately turned to him. He smirked at my reaction. He exhaled. Sumandal siya sa inuupuan namin.

"Pansin ko 'yung pag-iwas mo sa kanya, Brielle. Kahit sinong makakakita sa reaksyon ng mo kapag kaharap siya, maiisip na natatakot ka sa kanya o 'di kaya'y iniiwasan mo siya."

"Am I really that obvious?" I mumbled.

"No. I just know you that's why it was quick for me to see the changes." He shrugged.
