Psycho's Mine

Chapter Thirty

I don't know who is the woman in the media but she's stunning!

**************************************

Do you ever experienced a headache so bad you want to just tear your skull open and just look for the source of pain that's in there somewhere? I am really eager to do that right now. If pain is a person, I'll punch it in it's fvcking face.

"Suuuup Gio!" anang isang boses ng babae na pamilyar na sa akin. The woman sat down beside me at the island counter in the kitchen where I was bent over and counting one to ten internally. The dull ache in my head just won't go away, nung isang araw pa ito and it's getting worse everyday.

Tiningnan ko ang bagong dating na si Eris na ngayon ay tinutungga ang baso ng gatas that Gio prepared for me. Her long mane of galaxy colored hair is tied into two french braids. Ano na namang ginagawa nito dito? Not that I don't like her being here but lately, she's been staying a lot of times in my company. 

Eris stared at my disheveled hair na epekto ng rendezvous namin ni Keith kagabi which I didn't bother to brush after I showered, he sure likes to pull my hair a lot. Ehem. I dismissed the thought as soon as it crossed my mind, thinking about what happened last night doesn't help with my stupid headache. "You look like hell," she stated after taking my appearance in.

I just grunted as an answer at saka inabot ang bagong baso ng gatas na inilapag ni Gio sa harapan ko and drank it. Kahit papaano ay medyo nabawasan ang sama ng pakiramdam ko after gulping down the warm milk.

Hindi ako nakapasok sa opisina dahil na-late ako ng gising, apparently, my alarm clock isn't loud enough to wake me on my deep slumber. Hindi din naman ako ginising ni Keith na umalis pala ng maaga papunta sa kung saan. His office siguro, ugh, I don't know. I don't wanna think.

"You should really comb your hair," said Eris. Umalis ako sa pagkakaub-ob sa counter at saka siya hinarap, combing my hair using my fingers. "You know, nagiging tambayan mo na ang office ko. Are you going to guard me in here also?" I inquired habang pinipilit na tinatanggal ang buhol sa buhok ko. These knots just won't give away.

"Yep." She answered, popping p. "Ako muna ang magbabantay sayo dahil may ginagawang something important ngayon si Dante," she added grinning, "sabi niya."

I smirked at what she said, "O kaya ay nagpapalusot lang siya dahil ayaw ka niya kasama."

She faked a gasp habang nakahawak sa kanyang dibdib na parang nasaktan siya sa sinabi ko, "Don't say that!" she said wide-eyed. Pouting, she added, "He loves me!"

Napailing-iling na lang ako at binaling ang atensyon kay Gio who was always wearing his white chef uniform, I'm craving for his risotto right now. "Can you cook that famous Italian dish before?" I requested, "I haven't enjoyed it last time."

"Sure, Miss." He answered with a bow at saka nag-umpisa nang mag-prepare ng mga gamit niya. Eris however, turned to him still reeling at what I said kanina, "Diba Gio? Mahal ako ni Dante?" sabi nito. 

"Hindi." Walang kaabug-abog na sagot ni Gio na nagpatawa sa akin. Savage.

"Giovanni!" Sigaw ni Eris na pinandidilatan ng mata ang kausap.

I stopped laughing, "Wait," putol ko sa kanilang dalawa, "you're name is Giovanni?" 

Keith's personal chef smiled down at me and placed an arm in front his stomach and bowed, like what butlers do. "Gio for short, signorina," he said afterwards.

I gaped at him, "You're Italian?" 

"Duh," sabat ni Eris sa gilid ko. I didn't know that he is Italian, nor have an inkling of, kase magaling siyang magtagalog at hindi halata ang accent nito. They can't blame me!
