Bittersweet Revenge

Chapter 10

Kanina pa masakit ang kamay niya na mahigpit na hawak-hawak ni Blake. Kinaladkad siya nito palabas ng kumpanya.Ni hindi nito alintana ang nagtatanong at gulat na mukha ng mga empleyado.Dahan-dahan siyang pumipiglas sa pagkakahawak nito ngunit lalo lamang nitong hinihigpitan ang pagkakahawak sa kanya.

"Hey!You're hurting me!Let go of my hand!"She shouted at him but to no avail. He walked towards his car not minding the curious stares of people around them.Some even took a photo of them. She heaved a sigh. That would be a scandal for sure.

"Just shut up,will you?!"Inis na binalingan siya nito ng ngbabagang tingin at itinulak siya papasok bago ito sumakay din at pinaharurot ang sasakyan nito.

Nanlalaki ang matang tinitigan niya ito.How dare him?How can he shout at her like that!

"Why would I do that when you dragged me towards here?!You hurt me!"Sigaw niya dito habang pinipigilan ang kamay niyang gustong kalmutin ang gwapong pagmumukha nito. Naiinis siya dito.Ang kapal ng mukha na sigawan siya pagkatapos nitong hindi magpakita ng ilang araw. How insensitive!

"I don't like what you have done a while ago,Bleau.Why did you that?"He spat at her as he continued driving in a fast speed.
Napakapit tuloy siya ng mahigpit sa dashboard dahil sa kaba.

"Oh God!Slow down,will you?!"Kinakabahan na sigaw niya."I don't wanna die yet."

Binagalan naman nito ang pagpapatakbo ng sasakyan nito bago siya binalingan ng tingin. Sakto namang nag stop signal.

"Why did you kissed him ,Bleau?"His face still dark as he stared at her. Napalunok tuloy siya at nag-iwas ng tingin dito ngunit binaling nito pabalik ang mukha niya na siyang ikinalaki ng mata niya.

"I-I.."Natatarantang sabi niya."It's my way of greeting someone I knew."Pilit pinatatag ang boses na sabi niya.Ang lakas-lakas ng tibok-tibok ng puso niya nang bahagyang lumapit ang mukha nito sa kanya. Before she can even talk,his mouth lowered unto hers.He kissed her hard and coaxed her mouth to open which she eventually did. She kissed him back when his kisses became harsh and demanding as if punishing her. She even encircled her arms around his neck as his hand travelled around her upperbody.He touched her sensitive and hardened peaks which made her moaned his name.

Napapitlag lang siya nang sunod-sunod na busina ang narinig niya. Nanlalaki ang matang napakalas siya agad kay Blake at inayos ang pagkakaupo. Nakakahiya!Did they just make out in a car?In public?Oh my God!Another scandal,Bleau!How nice of you!

Mabilis na pinaandar naman nito ang sasakyan pagkatapos siyang balingan ng masuyong tingin.

"We're not yet done."Anito na ikinalingon niya dito. What does he mean by that?Is this about them kissing?

"Done what?"Namumula ang mukha na sabi niya.

"Talking,of course. What else can it be?"He smirked as if he knew what she's thinking of.Napairap siya dito at binaling nalang ang tingin sa harapan.

Napabuntong-hininga siya ng malalim.Why did he kissed her?And why did she let him kissed her? She knew she felt something for him but they are not in a relationship for Pete's sake!Ang galing at nakipagmake out pa siya dito. Ni hindi niya alam kung may gusto din ba ito sa kanya.

"What are you thinking?"Pukaw nito sa pag-iisip niya.

Napailing lang siya at kinuha ang cellphone niya. There's a message from Brittany. Nireplayan niya ito bago ibinalik iyon sa bag niya. Napaangat siya ng tingin ng pinarada na nito ang sasakyan. Kunot-noong nilibot niya ang paningin.He parked the car in front of the restaurant.

"Why are we here?"Aniya.

"It's almost lunchtime, Bleau.We have to eat."Sagot nito at nauna ng bumaba.

Nagtataka man ay sumunod siya sa dito. Hinawakan nito ang isa niyang kamay at iginiya siya papasok sa restaurant.Tumango lang ito sa waiter na bumati dito.Suplado ang gwapo!Hmmp.

She felt the stares of the other people when they entered the resto hand in hand. She just shrugged her shoulders and continued walking towards the vacant seat.Iginiya siya nito paupo at agad lumapit ang waiter.

"I'll have roasted beef,rice,grilled bangus and wine."He ordered before he glanced at her."What about you,baby?"

Nabigla man sa itinawag nito sa kanya ay nagkunwari nalang siyang walang narinig.She didn't want to assume.Yes,they kissed but it doesn't mean they're in a relationship.He's a guy after all.

"I'll have a pasta please and a white wine.Thank you."Nakangiting saad niya sa waiter. Namula pa ang mukha nito na lalong ikinangiti niya.

"You need to eat more,baby."Blake muttered and he gave the poor guy a daggered look."Give her grilled chicken and rice. And stop staring at her if you don't want to lose your job."He added making the guy paled.

Tumango lang ang kawawang waiter at tumalikod na.

"Why did you say that?That's harsh!"Komento niya pagkaalis ng pobreng lalaki.

"He's staring at you.I don't want that."Balewalang sagot nito at sumandal sa kinauupuan nito."I can only stare at you that way."

"There's nothing wrong in staring,Blake!"Napailing-iling siya dahil sa sinagot nito. Saan napunta ang common sense nito?

"There is.Especially if they stare at someone I particularly owned. They won't like me angry,baby."He answered making her gape at him.She couldn't believed his words. Owned?He owned her?Bakit? Kailan pa?

"You owned me Blake?Really?" Natatawang pakli niya habang nakatitig sa madilim nitong mukha.

"Yes,baby.I own you.All of you." Walang kakurap-kurap na saad nito. "And nobody should dare get what or who I owned."

She wanted to laugh histerically at him but he doesn't want him to create a scene again. Ayaw na niyang dagdagan ang scandal niya ngayong araw.She had enough for today. She just stared at him.At his dark but very handsome face. The face that made her forget why she's back in the Philippines in the first place. Wala na.Hindi na niya alam but she's now in great danger. In danger of falling inlove with him.
