I've fallen for this badass

Chapter 4

"Kyaaa!"

I ran to the kitchen where the scream came from.

"Anong nangyayari?" I hysterically asked.

Then there I saw Chris. He's holding a glass of water habang nagpapaypay gamit ang right hand niya.

"Betcha by golly.. OMG girl, you're so lucky!" he exclaimed.

"Ano na naman yun?"

Lumapit siya sakin at kumapit sa braso ko, "Wag ka na mag'deny! I saw him out there! I saw Papa Light!"

I sighed for relief, "Akala ko naman kung ano na! You scared the hell out of me." then I walked out of the kitchen.

"Are you guys dating na??" he asked.

"No! Of course not."

"Talaga lang ha? Eh bakit ka niya hinatid hanggang bahay? Why?"

"It's because.." I paused for awhile,  "..aba malay! Trip niya lang siguro."

"Wag ka na magmaang maangan! I know you do."

"I don't." I headed to the stairs.

"Come on! Want me to tell you? It's because he likes you. Insensitive much, ateng? Or pretending to the highest level ang peg?"

I stopped and faced him, "Want me to tell you too? Well, I don't like him."

"No problem, girl. I'm sure you'll like him sooner or later."

"By the way, kelan magre'resume ang classes niyo?"

"Next next week. Why?"

"That's good. Para bumalik ka na sainyo."

"Ganon? Why so mean? Akala ko ba namimiss mo ko tuwing magpa'part ways na tayo? But why push me now?"

"Puro ka kasi 'light', you know?"

"Eh kesa naman yung lesson nyo today ang pag'usapan natin? That's so boring kaya!"

"Bahala ka diyan. Anyway, tumawag ba si Stef? Or dumaan ba siya dito?"

"Nope. But now that you mentioned her,I think I'll ask her to come over later. By the way, Auntie just called. They won't make it to dinner daw kaya mauna na tayong kumain."

"Oh.."

"Ganun na ba talaga sila ka'busy?"

"It seems like it."

"Ohh.. anyways, why don't we drink later?"

"I don't drink.."

"Weh? di nga?"

"..on weekdays." I entered my room and locked the door.

"Hey Francesca Lopez! Don't you dare slam the door in front of me."

"I just did."

"Lechugas, papasukin mo naman ako. Hindi pa tayo tapos mag'usap."

"Magpapalit lang ako ng damit, okay?"

"Ah.. okay. Hintayin kita sa kitchen ha."

Nagbihis na 'ko ng pambahay at nahiga sa kama. I closed my eyes wanting to take a nap..

"Bukas nalang uli, France."

..pero kusang dumilat ang mga mata ko nang maalala ko si Light. Hearing him call my real name felt weird, yet it also felt good at the same time.. But it's so unfair! He knew my real name, while I've no single idea of his..I think I gotta call Stef.
