Not His Type

Chapter 22

Chapter 22

"Your place is still the best one everytime I go back here in the Philippines." Halos hindi ako makahinga nang marinig ko na boses ng babae iyon.

My timing was so wrong! You're such an idiot Kashmere.

"Gale, you're always welcome here." He said which made my heart so freakin heavy.

Ugh, I have mixed emotions right now. I'm sort of embarrassed, sad, and angry like hindi ko alam gagawin ko at this exact moment.

"Aww, I'm so touched. Well, I missed it here. And I can't believe that you actually went back to France just to pick me up. Seriously, you're not falling for me are you?" The girl named Gale said. I was waiting for Zade's answer pero hindi na siya nakasagot. "I'm just gonna use this room as usual?"

"No, you can't. That room is sort of a mess right now." Sagot ni Zade sa kanya. I guess that's the room na naka-lock kanina pagpasok ko. What's in there?

"Anyway, I'm going down for a bit." She said then I heard the door unlocking and closing, mukhang nakalabas na ang babaeng kasama niya. Now what? How do I leave this place without Zade finding me? 

He was walking around his condo, probably fixing some of his stuff from his luggage. What bothered me is that he sat on the sofa and sighed very heavily na para bang napaka-laki ng problema niya. I'd like to comfort him but something in me kind of felt angry. Why the heck would he go abroad to pick up some girl and he wouldn't even tell me? Hindi nga niya ako sinabihan. He even made the girl stay inside his place. She must be so special.

Tanga ka rin kasi Kash eh. Punta punta ka pa dito akala mo naman may mapapala ka. Haven't you read enough books on how guys break up with their girls? This is definitely a major sign  that he's not that into you anymore, you dimwit.

I heard him going inside the bathroom, I think, kaya naman naglakad na ako ng mabilis papunta sa pintuan. Wrong move dahil right after passing through his bathroom door, bigla itong bumukas at bumungad sa'kin ang mukha niya. Both of us were clearly shocked and nobody moved until a few seconds after.

"Kashmere? Why are you here?" He asked, definitely starting to panic.

I turned around and started walking towards the door. I can't take the humiliation, the hurt, and the anger that I am feeling right now. I'm so not in my right emotional state to talk to him. He grabbed my hand to stop me.

"Let go." I said.

"No, tell me why you're here." Hinarap ko siya, removing his hands from mine.

"You think you have the right to make me explain? I have a lot of questions, Zade, pero nasagot iyon lahat sa isang iglap." Sagot ko.

Yumuko siya, and that only meant na hindi niya kayang i-explain ang nakita ko. Lahat nang nabuong sagot sa utak ko ay totoo and he doesn't need to explain any further. Tears started falling from my eyes. Wow, I'm actually crying because of a guy. This is so not me.

"Kash, we have to talk."

Then he stepped coser to me, all I did was to step away from him. Mukhang nagulat siya nang makita akong umiiyak. I'm sure he wasn't expecting me to cry over something like this, but surprise, it hurts more than he think it does.

"Kash.."

"No, its okay. This is probably a wake up call for me, maybe its time to wake up from the dream that I hope would become a reality. Goodbye." Then I walked out of his condo. 

A few steps from there, nakasalubong ko ang isang babae and she smiled at me. She was very beautiful. The way she dolled herself up, halatang she's really a fashionista. I slowed down for a bit to see where she was heading. I wished I hadn't though dahil pumasok siya sa kwarto kung saan ako galing. So that was Gale.
