Courting Rancis Ong: The Seven Despicable Boys (bxb) (On going)

/47/

I was holding my chest real hard as I try to disperse my pounding heart. I looked around and was overwhelmed by the myriad of people looking at me expectantly; they're waiting for me to utter a word.

I — unlike most people — doesn't have stage fright. I am already used on performing in front of a huge crowd because of years and years of experience from gymnastics. However, today is a different story. This is not your usual performance. Several people's life is at stake here, heck, even my own life is at stake here.

Did I caught you dumbfounded? I guess you don't know what the crap am I yapping about? Well, let me break it down for you.

Better yet let us go back to the time where I found out what the hell is this things all about. You guys ready? Flashback will begin even if you're not ready.

I looked at him all dazed and stupefied. All of the blood inside my body automatically — as if it already anticipated this moment — rushed to my head.

He stopped kissing me, he looked at me with lethal intent, and then he released an exhausted sigh.

My face is burning, my mouth felt drier than usual, and my heart is pounding its way out of my chest.

Hindi ko maipaliwanag ang nararamdaman ko. Oo, naiinis ako kay Yuno dahil sa mga sinabi niya at sa mga ginawa niya sakin. Pero hindi ko maipaliwanag ang kakaibang pagkainis dahil itinigil niya ang kanyang ginagawa.

Oo na! I'm such an annoying person. Pero masisise niyo ba ako? A good looking son of a bitch literally kissed me. Although, I had my fair share of saucy guys; there is something different about Yuno's way that turns me on. Maybe it's his eyes, or his raging sex appeal. Oh god help meh!

"I must be out of my mind." He distanced himself from me, he paced back and forth restlessly; creating a thumping sound that filled the room. "What am I thinking?"

I stood there, all flustered and shook. Yuno massaged the temples of his head as if trying to relieve himself from stress. I cannot help but think: "Is this guy really insane?"

"Okay!" he snapped. "That did not happened."

I flicked my eyes, "S-Sure."

Lumapit siya sakin pagkatapos ay hinawakan niya ako sa kamay, "Nababaliw na yata ako."

"Please let me go," I said.

Yes, inaamin kong nagustuhan ko din naman 'yong ginawa namin, at oo, nabitin ako dahil itinigil niya. Pero hindi pa naman ako nasisiraan ng bait at sinusubukan ko paring mag desisyon ng tama.

This guy hit, humiliated, and belittled me. I am in the right to feel loathsome to him. He is nothing but a sick hot guy — like Zac. What can I say? It seems like the word "crazy" is the twin of the family name "Kristofferson."

"You have to help us devise our plans," he said.

"Why should I? After what you just did to me, I guess no one in his right mind will bat an eyelash about your woes," I seriously said. I made sure that my voice is firm to make him understand how fucking serious I am.

"Oh," he chuckled. "I'm not asking you a favour. This is something that you have no choice but to comply."

"I-I don't understand," I peered at his face.

His brows furrowed, he sat on-top of the bed and crossed his arms. He then tapped the mattress right next to him, as if commanding me to sit next to him.

And so I did.

"Are you aware how rich and powerful the Kristofferson is?" he asked.

I know for a fact that Zac's family is one of the biggest palm oil exporter in the Philippines. But, that is the only thing that I know.
