The Bitch Queen

Bitch 25

I never experienced to love someone excluding my family and friends, of course. I never felt the feeling of being cared, being loved, and I haven't felt the feeling of being jealous. At mas lalong hindi ko naranasang mag habol ng lalaki.

Lahat nangyayari ngayon, lahat bago sakin. Chasing a guy? Nah, I never did it not until Zeus came. Yes, everything changed since I met him.

I now get the chance to feel being cared, being liked, and that feeling na may mga butterflies in my stomach. The fast beating of my heart, cheeks burning? I felt it now.

Everything I felt might seemed blurry but I think what Aphrodite said? I think,she's right.

Nakita ko si Zeus na papalabas pa lang ng bar kaya dali dali akong tumakbo para habulin siya. Nahihirapan pa akong makadaan since maraming nagsasayawan sa dance floor but I pushed them. Yeah, mean, right? I'm in a hurry, folks.

Pagkalabas ko ng bar, I scan the place and look for my car. Hindi nag dala ng sasakyan ang isang yun kaya possible'ng nasa sasakyan ko yun.

I don't know kung bakit ko ba 'to ginagawa. Kung bakit ko pa siya hinabol. But there this feeling na gusto kong malaman lahat ng nararamdaman niya dahil baka, pareho kami ng nararamdaman. Yes, I think I'm starting to like him.

"What are you doing here?"
A very manly familiar voice spoke behind me

My hands are starting to be sweaty and my hearts beats abnormally. Why do I feel nervous?

Gosh, Sapphire!

"Go back inside, AM. It's dangerous here." He said coldly

Kinakabahan man ako, nilingon ko pa din siya only to see his back walking away from me.

"GG."

He stop at his track but didn't turn

"Was that true?" I asked

Bilib nako sa sarili ko dahil nakayanan kong magsalita without stummering. I don't why but everytime I talk to him, I feel like I'm stammering.

"What do you think so? You think I was joking?"

Naglakad ako palapit sa kanya and when I was three steps away from him, I stop.

"I want to know the truth, GG."

He turn and face me with brows furrowed.

"What truth, AM? I already told you, I like you. Isn't that enough for you to believe me?"

Napahawak ako sa dibdib ko. Parang lalabas na sa ribcage ko ang puso ko sa sobrang lakas ng kabog neto. Gusto kong maglundag sa tuwa pero I don't know why.

"Forget it, wala ka namang paki." He turn his back at me again and start to walk away.

I want to say those words too but my feelings for him isn't that sure.

Aish! I'm confused! But damn! I can't stand seeing him like that.

Tumakbo ako palapit sa kanya.

"Stop!" I shouted

Huminto siya pero di lumingon sakin kaya naman hinila ko ang braso niya at pinalingon sakin.

"Ano?" He asked

"I---"

Shit! I can't! Do I really like him? Hell, yeah! Kahit naman gago 'to, he never failed to make me amused.

"What is it?" He asked impatiently

"Hays!"

Just say those words, Sapphire. Say it! Say it!
"I like you!" After saying those, I cover my face using my both hands.
