The Boss' Nerd

Training (Part 2)

Maine just agreed to get everything over with. She needs to steel herself kasi nakakaramdam na siya ng kirot sa tagiliran niya! Maine assigned Paolo and Nico to different partners kasi pag sila ang magkapartner malamang hindi makakatawid ang dalawa, lalandiin lang ng "babae" ang kapatid! Sinimulan na ng grupo ang pag-akyat, parating na ang kabilang team. Good thing, they were all prepared na with the gear and all. And off they go with their first partner at nagtagumpay silang makarating sa kabilang side. The first partner cheered the next and guide them where to step their feet! They guide them until everyone was able to cross the net rope! The only partner left was Maine and Richard! The other team are left behind by two sets!

Kung kelan naman malapit na matapos ang obstacle, saka kumirot ng husto ang sugat ni Maine sa tagiliran! Namutla ito pero hindi nagpahalata! Richard, took Maine's hand and let her climb first the steps, he took her by her waist and apparently nahawakan nito ang sumasakit na sugat ng dalaga!

"Uggghhhh!" Napaigik ang dalaga. Dahilan para makabitaw ito sa kasunod na baitang!
"What the fuck --? Bakit hindi ka magsabi agad??" Galit na sabi ni Richard ng nakita na may bahid ng dugo ang kamay niya mula sa tagiliran ng dalaga! Namumutla na ito! Richard was about to call the medic when he was stopped by Maine!
"Don't do that or else...!" Maine warned him.
"Pero dumudugo na ang sugat mo! It should be checked!" Richard insisted.
"Mahahabol na tayo ng kabilang team, cooperate! Mamaya ko na iintindihin yan! Pag natalo tayo dito, mas lalong hindi kayo makakaalis mamaya! Magkakaproblema ang celebration..!" Maine said.
"Ahhh, bakit ba ang tigas ng ulo mo?" Richard can't help but feel frustrated.  He knows how important the event later plus his mission! When he realized something...

"I will go on to that party if you will come with me, then!" He blackmailed Richard.

"Are you mad? You should be there!" Maine said, flabbergasted.

Tiningnan niya ang kasunod na team sabay sabing..

"Uyyy, nakatawid na yung isang team! Isang team na lang pagitan natin!" Richard said and he relax a little...

"What??? Oh, shoot! Let go of me, I need to climb this!" Maine said, as she tried to whack Richard's hand off her arm, but she can't... Kumikirot pa yung sugat niya plus nakakaramdam na din siya ng pagkahapo!  She then blurted out...
"Okay, I will go later if we win this! Now, let me go!" Maine said.
The moment she agreed, Richard let go of her hand and climb up the ladder! When he established his position...

"Akina ang kanang braso mo! Hihilahin kita pataas!" Sabi ni Richard sabay abot ng braso sa dalaga! He then pulled her up, once settled, he let go and gave her arm to Maine and then settle her again before climbing up again..  This was his strategy until they reach the net...

After reaching the net, Richard made sure na lahat ng gear ni Maine is secured.  He even tried to yank it off the rope as hard as he can, before letting her be the first to walk through it.

Medyo bumabagal na si Maine at Richard need to coax her.  Apparently, he can think of anything the could talk so he decided to mock her!

R : Oh, Captain, walang dayaan!
M : What the heck -- ?
R : Wag mo sadyain na natalo tayo para makawala ka lang tonight!
M : Lt, I want to win this para sa inyong tatlo, lalo ka na! Gusto ko makaalis ka na dito, the soonest possible time! Tapos magpapatalo lang ako! Ugok ka ba?
R : Malay ko ba, ang bagal mo kasi e, mas mabilis pa akong kumilos keysa sa iyo e! Are you really able to pass the captainship kasi parang ang lampa mo e!
M : What ??? Are you questioning my capacity to handle thus special forces?

Richard just shrugged his shoulders and continue to his task while spying the other team...
"Good, we are still ahead of them with a huge lead!" Richard said to himself...

Maine, on the other hand, was fuming and to prove him wrong, she willed herself and this time totally ignored her pain.  She closed her eyes and pushed her self to the limits! She ignored it when she felt something is dripping on her side. 

"Makikita mong lalaki ka! Napakayabang talaga! Akala mo kung sinong magaling! Porke malaki ang katawan at yummy ang biceps niya!?? Hindi porke bakat ang malapad na likod nito na parang masarap sampahan, yayabangan ako nito! At lalong porke ang guwapo niya, he will question my capabilities???!!" Inis na inis na sabi ni Maine sa sarili...

"Hindi porke guwapo ka sa paningin ko ngayon, kukuwestiyonin mo ang capabilities ko nilang kapitan ng team na ito!!" Sa sobrang inis napasigaw ng malakas si Maine na narinig ng lahat!

"Bwisit ka! Pag nakatapos ako dito! Tumakbo ka na! Ipahahabol kita sa bala ko! Wala akong pake kung guwapo ka o maganda ang katawan mo! Para lupa ang makinabang sa iyo! Bwisit!" Sigaw pa rin nito, habang nagpapatuloy ito sa pagtawid sa net rope na mas bumilis ngayon sa pang gigigil sa binata!

Nakakaloko namang napangiti si Richard dahil parang nagmamantra ang dalaga sa inis sa kanya! But he needs to do it para mapabilis sila at malapatan na ng lunas ang sugat ng dalaga! Kung pwede nga lang pasanin na niya ito, ginawa na niya e! Kaya lang hindi papayag ang dalaga kaya he resulted to taunt her, galitin siya para pataasin ang adrenaline nito.  He heard somewhere na pag mas challenged ang dalaga mas nakikita mo yung tapang at angas ng dalaga! Pero hindi niya inaasahan Yung pagsigaw ng dalaga kanina, kung wala lang siyang malaking dahilan malamang inasar pa niya ito! Malamang ininis pa niya lalo kasi nagagandahan siya sa dalaga lalo na kapag namumula ang mukha nito sa inis! Akala talaga niya, wala siyang dating sa dalaga! Ang totoo, ang baba na ng self-esteem niya kasi kung lahat ng babae, napapalingon sa kanya pag dumaan siya, si Maine kahit yata pasimpleng sulyap hindi ginawa ng dalaga! Kaya pakiramdam niya ngayon, sobrang guwapo niya dahil sa mga sinabi nito!  He is still on his own reverie when he heard...

"Faulkerson, bilisan mo! Pag natalo tayo dahil sa iyo, pasasayawin kita ng bala ko!"

Nagulat siya at nakita niya na may nakatutok na derringer sa kanya!
