Sapphire’s POV
Pagkatapos nang mainit na tagpo namin, tumayo si Grinn at pumasok si banyo. I pulled the duvet up and covered myself. Then, tears started to stream in my face. Tumagilid ako mula sa aking pagkakahiga. I don’t want him to see me in this state— wrecked and shattered. It’ll just boost his vengeful ego.
Bakit naman hindi? He got my virginity but he didn’t even give a damn about it. I thought he’d think differently knowing that he’s my first, but then, it’ll always be a hopeless presumption. He’d never love me the way I did, I just forced him anyway.
I closed my eyes, not minding the tears flowing freely in my face. I want to rest— I’m tired physically and emotionally. This is the price I have to pay for being selfishly in love, right?
“Hey, are you okay?” He asked while trying to suppress his laughter. Damn this pretty guy! His making fun of me, his enjoying this show.
“Uh-uh, yes. I’m okay. I was just surprised. I never thought I’d see you here. Quite an irony, right? Mr. Heartbreaker.” I showed him my oh-so-sweet-mocking-smile. Two can play this game, Mr. De Silva.
But instead of being dazed, he plastered his masculine smug that made him more gorgeous and… hot. Geez, I’m completely beguiled by his charms. He had this certain effect on me— making my heart race just by the trace of his manly scent and drowning me into his deep, dark and mysterious eyes.
I tried to compose myself. I can’t let him win this one. But then my self-possession shattered when he spoke. Muntik na akong mabuwang sa upuan ko. Geez!
“Oh really? Does that mean you were ONCE charmed by me too, Ms. Angeles? Besides, I was never a heartbreaker. Those girls knew from the start who I love but then they’ve willingly flaunt their selves to me.” He chuckled. “Hindi naman ako ipokrito. Hinain na nga sa harapan ko, aayawan pa.”
His eyes was filled with mischievousness. Damn this guy! His self-confidence is oozing.
“Nah-uh, don’t compare me with your fan girls, Mr. de Silva. I never had a single admiration for you then—“ pero bago pa matapos ang pinagsasabi ko ay pinutol na ito ni Grinn.
“Ow? Then? How about now, Ms. Angeles?” his grin got bigger.
“O-of course not, idiot! I’ve completely moved on!” He laughed piercingly. Sht! Why the hell did I stutter?
