Love Me (Completed)

Chapter 5 - Hate

I hate him. I hate him. I hate him.

Nakaupo lang kami ni Liam sa pavillion ng village dahil alam niyang galit ako at sinusubukan niyang bigyan ng sense ang nangyari.

Hinatid na niya si Flynne kanina pa pero pinuntahan niya ako sa bahay at niyayang tumambay dito. He was explaining to me what happened.

"I was there alam ko anong nangyari. Wag mo nang kampihan kaibigan mo."

"This started because of me. Hindi ko alam na magrereact siya or ikaw ng ganon. It was meant for teasing you."

Alam kong nagiguilty si Liam and I should let him dahil totoo naman na sa kanya nagsimula pero hindi naman niya sinabi kay Sebastian na iwan ako.

"I know. Pero iniwan niya ako! That's what happened."

Pag naiisip ko na iniwan niya ako doon magisa dahil lang sa childish temper niya naiinis nanaman ako.

Hours had passed pero 'yung inis ko hindi pa rin nawawala.

Iniwan niya akong nakatayo doon na parang tanga. Kung hindi lumapit si Liam at si Flynne baka hindi ko na siya kausapin kahit kailan. Wala rin nasabi si Flynne aa action ng pinsan niya because she knew it was wrong.

I don't care kung iniisip nilang mababaw ako. Mababaw na kung mababaw but this is me and I'm not happy with that. In the first place siya naman ang humila sa akin papunta doon tapos siya pa ang magiinarte at magwawalk out?

Tumahimik si Liam at tumingin sa likod ko. I already sensed Sebastian behind me since earlier pero hindi ko siya nilingon.

Nang lumapit siya tumayo si Liam para iwan kami pero tumingin ako sa kanya at umupo siya ulit.

Umupo naman sa tabi ni Liam si Sebastian pero hindi ko pa rin siya tinignan. "Sorry."

"Bakit ka nandito? Diba umalis ka na?" I snapped. "Seriously Liam? Pinapunta mo siya dito?"

"Sa akin ka galit so talk to me, Viktoria."

"Ayaw kitang kausapin."

He patted Liam and this time hindi ko na siya pinigilan umalis. Liam even squeezed my shoulder before he left.

"Can you please leave?"

Saglit ko siyang tinignan at nakita kong nakabihis na siya at nakapagshower na rin.

He crouched to find my gaze and I look away. "Sorry na. Hindi ko na uulitin. I know what I did and I deserve this treatment but please listen."

This is not temper tantrums. Huling nagtantrums ako bata pa ako and I'm not a kid anymore. Hindi ako nagpapalambing sa kanya at hindi ako nagpapasuyo if that's what he thinks I'm doing dahil inis talaga ako.

"Uuwi na ako." Sabi ko at pinigilan niya ako. He held down both of my thighs so I remained seated across him.

I glared at him. "So ikaw lang ang pwedeng umalis?"

"Let's talk first." Inalis rin niya ang kamay niya when he realize I'm not going anywhere.

"I'm sorry, okay? Alam ko galit ka. I just don't like the idea of you meeting him. I expected you to refuse pero biglang gusto mo na. Yno is the worst of the worst. And Ramos, he's your best friend. He was supposed to protect from that kind of people pero hindi ko alam kung bakit okay lang sa kanya na ipakilala ka kay Yno."

Hindi pa rin ako umimik.

"The girls I meet they are harmless at lalaki ako so it's a different story."

Tumaas ang kilay ko doon. What difference does it make? I hate when someone is pulling the lalaki ako babae ka shit on me.

"I know. But you have to understand. Maganda ka and guys will take advantage of you. You should be careful dahil babae ka. You don't just want to meet everyone who wants to know you. Hindi ko lang maintindihan bakit gustong gusto mo makilala si Yno."

"I don't care." Was all I said.

He sighed. "If you want to prove a point. Well point taken. I can introduce a nice guy if you want but I know that's not why you're mad."

"Alam mo palang galit ako edi umuwi ka na."

"Trust me I'm mad at myself right now too for letting you get close to that guy and for leaving you."

"If he is what you say he is then why did you leave me alone there? With bunch of guys I don't know. Sana naisip mo 'yun bago ka umalis. You know me the best kaya sana naisip mo rin kung anong mararamdaman ko." I said and I don't know but tears started forming.

"I know. Pinagsisihan ko ginawa ko the moment I walked out. Babalikan sana kita and then I saw Flynne and Ramos with you. And that you're mad that's why I gave you time before I approached you. Promise ko sayo hindi ko na uulitin."

"I hate you."

He smiled faintly then held the back of my head and slightly pulled me toward him. Sinandal niya ang ulo ko sa balikat niya. "Sorry." He said while brushing my hair.

We stayed like that hanggang sa alam ko nang hindi ako iiyak tsaka ako humiwalay at tumayo. Naglakad ako pauwi sa bahay at nakasunod lang siya sa likuran ko. I didn't need to turn around to know that he's keeping the distance but walking with me.

When I reach my house. I paused before reaching to open the gate. Hinarap ko siya at nakatayo lang siya doon habang nakatingin sa akin.

I haven't said anything since his long speech and after the suppose to be comforting gesture.

I reach up and planted a soft kiss on his right cheek. Not the usual playful annoying kiss I do just to annoy him but this is more of a thank you and a sorry and I forgive you kiss.

He just stood there. This time surprisingly he didn't wipe the kiss away and he didn't look annoyed. He just smiled at nodded.

Hindi ko na kailangan sabihin pa sa kanya through words ang gusto kong sabihin. He already knows. Somehow we just know that we're okay now.
