When love is near

Chapter 31

He drinks his bottle of beer. Looking down and shakes his head while a smile continues to grow on his lips.

HUY!!!

Steve startled him.

Grabe sa pagkatama pre ah. Hit and run ba?

Adriane smirks and avoid Steve's teases.

O ito ba yung magnanakaw ng puso?

Ano? Pinagsasasabimo dyan?

Sus! Ako pa eh.

Leaned his arms on the table and looked at Adriane intently.

Oh, ano nanaman yan?

Tinamaan ka tol!

Pfft

Sus! Oh tapos hindi mapakali kung saan saan umiikot ang paningin. Nag-cr lang yon oh, hindi mawawala yon.

Adriane giggles.

Seryoso pre. Masaya ako at nakakatawa ka na uli ng ganyan.

Alin?

Yungtawang in love

He looked outside and whispered

In love...

She washes her hands, then looked at herself in the mirror. She gently stokes her hair up and down, presses her lips gently.

Are you done?

Wena interrupted her baffled mind.

Um yeah, was just about to dry my hands

Okay.

Wena checks her out. Jamie got conscious.

What's wrong? May dumi pa ba?

Wala. You are so pretty  more even now that you're wearing that kind of smile Jamie.

I'm lost

Curiousity painted her face.

The smile of a lady who is so smitten with a man.

Eyes widened. In denial.

Ahy teka lang ah

Oh, don't try to hide it Jamie, kinikilig ka kaya

Hindi naman... 

Hindi?

Hindi masyado Ha Ha Ha

ha ha ha. No wonder Adriane can't get enough of you, even your laugh is contagious

You sure do know a lot about him

Yep, only because he is a childhood friend and it's one thing anyone shouldn't be insecure about. I may know a lot, but not everything.

Sigh. He is full of surprises

Yes. Kailangan mong tapyas-tapyasin to get into his core. Pero  alam mo wala siyang laban sa charm mo eh

Talagalang ah

Yes! Natunawmo walls niya, effortlessly.

You sound so certain about that no?

Ha Ha Ha. Girl just believe me.

Oh, bakit parang natutulala ka pre?

Wala lang. Ang bilis lang ng mga pangyayari

Oh, for a guy ehdibadapatmasaya ka? Hindi kana nahirapan pa

How to sustain it? Yun ang naiisip ko. Isa pa, si Jamie

Ah, so in love ka nga. Pang matagalan na kasi ang naiisip mo.

Always been like that Steve.

Oo nga, na planado ang lahat. Pero this is the very first time na nag-aalinlangan ka dahilkay Jamie. Dahil hindi ka sigurado kung pareho ba kayo ni Jamie ng gustong mangyari. Pero kahit na ganon, willing ka parin sumugal. Tama ba?

She is so intimidatingly different. I must climb mountains just to be with her.

But, by the way you two started? I guess she adjusted her height.

Adriane placed his elbow on the table and drink his beer.

Mukhang kaibigan nga talaga kita.

Tagalna. Pero pre, eto lang, ang mahalaga sa ngayon pareho kayong masaya.

Nod his head yes.

I guess so.

Oh, rest room nabaang new home adressniyo? Mukang balak niyo na duon tumira ah?

Anukaba! syempre babae matagal talaga kami sa cr noh?

Ganun?! Ang lalaki kasi pag sobrang tagala sa cr ano eh

Hoy!!!!

Adriane interupted Steve.

Wena sat down beside her fiance. Jamie supposed to sit beside Wena but Adriane pulled her hand gently, closer to him.

Oh, saan ka?

Uupo?

Malayosa akin?

Ikaw naman, masyado mo akong namimis

Ahynako Ms. Jamie totoo yan. Kung pwede lang sumugod sa CR ginawa niya na

Kaw naman hon, wag mong bukuhin

Jamie sat down in front of Adriane as his whole body covers hers entirely.

He whispered to her ear.

You are so beautiful for these eyes of mine to behold.

Adriane! nakikiliti ako ano ba!

He whispered again.

I miss your lips, I might kiss you here

Anoba! Mamaya na nga yan Adriane naman eh!

she giggles.

Ha Ha okaysorry na. Pero, mamaya ah!  (whispered with his husky voice)

Ah guys, baka gusto niyo na mag-kwarto ahy este mag-kwento!

Steve mokingly said.
