Waiting To Hear You Say "I Love You"

Chapter 45

Inflicted

Inulan ng kung anu-anong klaseng tanong si Samantha nang simulan na nilang kumain. Most of the questions were totally random. She expects questions about her like her surname, age, course, hometown, the basic ones. But that is not the case at all. They asked her if she has any allergies, if she has a cat or a dog, or if she is a cat-person or a dog-person. They even asked her if she's willing to adapt a snake as a pet! What was that?! She was so lost with all the random and not-so-normal questions of Samuelson's brothers. But even if they sounded so weird, it brought them laughter. The dinner was actually fun because of their weirdness.

Hindi lang kawirduhan ng mga kapatid ni Samuelson ang natuklasan ni Samantha. Nalaman din niyang hindi pa pala nagkakagirlfriend si Samuelson. Na siya ang kauna-unahang babaeng dinala nito sa kanila. That gave her warmth and she felt proud. Samuelson is not just a gentle and a good guy. He's incredibly handsome, too. He looks like a bad boy with his right ear pierced and all but his face just screams he's good and a great catch. He has the same face as his brothers. Like their faces combined in his. The thick eyebrows. The chinky eyes. The pointy nose. The redish lips. The sculpted-like face. The tall body. He just looks younger. Kung titingnan, parang sa buhok lang talaga sila nagkaiba-iba. Samuelson has black hair yet styled differently. He has short sides with medium-length hair, styled into textured spikes. His chin is well shaved, too.

Everyone's attention was caught by a phone ringing. It was Samuelson's.

"Who is it, honey?" Asked Mercedes.

Samuelson looked at her. "It's Ron. I'll just take this." He turned to Samantha. "Saglit lang ako."

Samantha smiled then nodded. After that, Samuelson stood up and walked far enough for them not to hear.

The three men gave each other knowing looks then grin. After that, they looked at Samantha who innocently smiled back at them when she caught their eyes.

"Mom, is it okay to show Samantha our treasures?" Asked Steph.

"Sure, son."

Agad na pumasok ang tatlo sa loob ng bahay. Maya-maya pa'y lumabas ang mga ito ng may dalang photo albums.

It was Steph who first showed her his "treasure." After Steph was Vee then lastly, Lea. Turns out, their treasure was embarrassing photos of Samuelson.

Steph has Samuelson's baby pictures, Vee has Samuelson's naked pictures (all were stolen photos), while Lea has Samuelson's photos wearing girly clothes.

Nangingiti na lamang si Samantha sa mga nakikita nya at sa mga side comments ng mga kapatid nito. Not long after that, Samuelson joined them.

Nang makita ni Samuelson ang mga "treasures" ng mga kapatid nya na hawak ni Samantha, agad syang pinamulahan at mabilis na binawi ang mga ito mula sa kanya. Tawa naman nang tawa ang mga kapatid nito sa reaksyon nito.

"Damn, your face was priceless!" Natatawang saad ni Steph. The two seconded.

"I told you to throw these away!" Naiinis na sabi ni Samuelson.

"Kayaman kaya namin yan!" Sabi naman ni Vee.

Samuelson turned to Samantha with his flustered face. "Nakita mo lahat?" She nodded. "Pati yung collection ni Kuya Lea?"

"Yung nakapambabae kang damit?" He nodded. "Oo. Ang cute mo nga eh."

He blushed. Umiwas siya ng tingin sa dalaga dahil sa hiya. "M-Men don't like to be called cute by their woman, you know."

Unti-unting tumingin si Samuelson kay Samantha. Her heart just jumped in her chest when she saw his deep brown eyes, looking at her with embarrassment and desire.
