Chapter 9

"I think these headlines and pictures deserve an explanation." Brows raised said of Mitch.

"Its a big misunderstanding." Thats all I can say. If I'll start explaining, I don't even know where to start.

"Misunderstanding? This are all shit, Donny! Miranda even told me that your sister Hannah addressed that you and Mia are dating! She even got a social media fight in IG just because she keeps of defending that girl! Benj and Hanna even posted a picture with Mia together with your family and to your house pa talaga! Hindi ako bobo, Donny! How can you do this to me? Hanggang kelan mo ko pag mumukahing tanga?!" She's getting to my nerves.

"Ano naman sayo ngayon kung yan ang nalaman mo? Why is like that I can't defend myself from you? If you don't want to believe, so be it! Now if you excuse me may game pa si Hanna." I stood up and start to walk. I lost words of what I've heard in her mouth. Sino ba siya para mag react ng ganun? She's not my girlfriend.

"Really? Is that what you're concern about, huh? Hannah's game? Or you just want to see Mia cause heaven's know na paepal yung babaeng yun at pupunta talaga siya dun ngayon!"

I stop on my track and faced her.

"Oh? Tama ba ako? Tignan natin kung gugustuhim mo pang makasama ang Miang yun sa gagawin ko mamaya sa party." She said and stood up.

"Payo ko lang, don't let Mia out of your sight, Donny." She said as she left me standing.

What the fucked?

I drive my way to Hannah's school. My head are in the sea of questions . Hindi ko alam na may ganoong headlines na pala. Did mom and dad have an idea on this already? And why the hell Hanna would say that Mia and I are dating? We barely knew each other!

Media nga naman. Dagdag pa tong mga articles na mali mali ang laman.

"Tignan natin kung gugustuhin mo pang makasama ang Miang yun sa gagawin ko mamaya sa party"

Suddenly I remembered what Mitch said earlier. I tighten my grip on the steering wheel. I know Mitch can do impossible things. And when it's impossible, its bad.

I parked the car in the parking lot. I immediately went inside the gym and spotted Mia who's keep on glancing everywhere.

May hinahanap ba to?

I also saw my family besides her. I walk towards their place without her noticing my coming.

I tap her shoulder causing her to startle.

She looked at me in her shock state.

As I saw her whole, I felt slightly irritated in her clothes.

She's wearing short. Revealing too much skin.

"Why are you wearing like that?" I asked in a furrowed.

"Bakit? May masama ba sa suot ko?"
She asked back.
