22-Loving an Arrogant Boy

Azalea:

"So, how was the date?" nakataas ang isang kilay na tanong ni Jamaica sa akin.

"It was good." Sagot ko ditong nakangiti.

"Too much good you can't handle?" she said it with another meaning.

"You're impossible." Napapailing na wika ko dito pero di pa rin nawawala ang ngiting nakaguhit sa mukha ko.

"And my best friend is crazy in love." She said mockingly with a wide grin in her face.

I just rolled my eyes on her dahilan para makabangga ako ng tao.

"I'm sorry." I said apologetically not looking at the person.

"Bitch earthworm!" pasigaw na wika niya at nabosesan ko naman agad ito kaya napalingon ako dito.

Yeah right, it was Cindy. I see her with a witch smile plastered in her face. "Such a loser." She snorted but I didn't say anything. "So, wala ka na palang dila? Or... maybe you're just afraid na Zach will find out who you really are."

Napangiti at napataas ang kilay ko sa sinabi niya.

"I'm sorry, pero hindi ako masyadong nakikipag-usap sa taong makikitid ang utak." Matamang sabi ko sa kanya na ikinagulat niya.

"What did you say?" she said it holding her anger.

"Hindi ka naman siguro bingi, di ba?"Nakataas ang isang kilay na sagot ko dito.

"You bitch!" balak sana niya akong sampalin ngunit pinigilan ito ni Ryder na ikinabigla ko rin.

"Ryder?" Sabay naming tanong ni Cindy. Mag-iisang linggo na rin kasi itong hindi namin nakikita dahil busy ito sa pagtulong-tulong sa negosyo ng magulang niya at balita ko nagte-take na lang ito ng mga private lessons kaya kahit hindi na ito pumasok ay okay lang.

"You will not like hitting her, Cindy." He said it with an authoritative voice which makes her shaken for a while but managed to composed herself. Agad din naman niyang hinila ang kamay mula sa pagkakahawak ng lalaki.

"And you have so many knight in shining armor, you earthworm." sa halip ay baling niya sa akin pero kinibit balikatan ko lang ito.

"You could find yours too." I tilt my head on her and that makes her lips form into zero.

"Ha! ..." she tries to open her mouth to say something but did not managed to find the right word so she just turn her back to us.

"That was close." Sabi ni Jamaica sabay buntong-hininga. Nginitian ko na lamang ito bago binalingan si Ryder.

"Kailan ka pa dumating?" balita ko kasi nagpunta sila ng family niya sa Singapore the last few days.

"Kaninang umaga lang." nakangiting sagot niya sa akin.

"May pasalubong ka ba?" si Jamaica ang nagtanong na ikinatawa ni Ryder.

"Typical Jamaica. Kaya naman pala patay na patay sayo si --" hindi na natuloy pa ni Ryder ang sasabihin niya nang takpan ni Jamaica ang bibig nito at pinukulan siya ng masamang tingin.

"Wala kang sinasabi , Ryder." She gritted between her teeth at inalis na niya ang kamay nitong nakatakip sa bibig ni Ryder.

Nakangiti namang binalingan na ako ng lalaki.
