Chapter 54

"So anona?"

Steve asked Adriane. He invited Adriane to lunch with their son Addie after his class.

"Anong anona?"

"Anong balak mo kay Jamie?"

"Wala"

"Wala? Imposiblengwalapre"

"Wala siyang kawala"

"YoWn!!! ha ha ha"

"Kaso, I really don't know where to start without her avoiding me. You know Jamie, the more I draw closer, the more she'll slip away"

"Sabi nga nila kung hindi mo madala sa pakiusapan"

Adriane stared at Steve knowing what's on his mind.

"No. No, no. There's no way I'll treat Jamie that way"

"Suggest langnaman pre"

4:00 Pm

Jamie decided to go home early and spent the rest of the day with her daugther. She endorsed all the papers to her secretary and hurried her way to her car. Just when she started the engine and stepped onto the accelerator, a man jumped in front of her car and bumped into the hood.

"Shittt!!!!!"

Jamie shouted and was firghtened.

"May nasagasaanako? Sa parking lot Jamie may nasagasaan ka?!!!!?

The man stood up quickly and managed to help his aching thighs.

"Aray! Teka, saglit lang"

His palm signaled at Jamie to calm down and wait.

"A... Adriane????"

Adriane limp, his way towards Jamie's window.

"Anong ginagawa mo? Gusto mong patayin kita? Next time magsasabi ka na Jamie pasagasa ako sayo eto o tatayo ako sa harap mo hindi nangugulat ka!!!"

"Jamie, calm down"

"Kasi naman Adriane madali akong kausap"

"Jamie I said calm down"

"Ano ba kasing problema mo? Dahilsa beach yunba? Gusto monggumantiyunba?"

"Jamie stop!'

"Okay"

He leaned closer to her face and said gently.

"Can we talk?"

"Pagkataposmoakongpagsungitan the other night?'

"I thought lasing ka at wala ka dapatmaalala?"

"Just a guess Adriane"

"So can we talk now?'

"I'm in a hurry Adriane. My daughter needs me"

"Just half an hour"

"Half an hour. You know half an hour is not enough for both of us Adriane"

She whispered to herself.

"Ano?"

"Wala! Eh hindi nga pwede"

"Papayag ka or I will do my best to enter this car and kidnapped you"

"That sounded as if I have a choice"

"Well, unless you want to still go. But ,but if you choose to go, I will again stand in front of your way and"

"Okay! Alright. Half an hour Adriane!"

"Yes Ma'am! Half an hour"

Adriane went inside her car and drove themselves somewhere where he can talk to Jamie properly. The two of them may look like a high school quarreling, even if they deny it, they both know that to be together, even if over a fight, will always be worth the while.
