"Where do you want to go?" Tinignan ni raffy si alexa na napakalawak ang ngiti at nagniningning ang mga mata. He clenched his fist. He knows that alexa is infatuated with him. The girl even confess her feelings to him. Nagulat man ay wala siyang nasabi kundi ang titigan at abutin sabay yakapin eto. He doesn't know what to tell her. Mamaya ay masaktan niya pa eto at maging dahilan upang manganib ang kanyang buhay at ng kanyang pamilya. Lalo ng ng babaeng kanyang minamahal.
Abuela ermita called him and told about those photos. Him and mayanera.
My men already killed the spy arthus. Take some precaution at siguraduhin mong mag-ingat ngayon. Once they knew about maya they will eliminate her. Alam mo ang bawat patakaran iho. Keep safe for me okay. I'll take care of maya here.
"I want to go to amusement park raffy. I've never been there" alexa sweetly smiled at her. He can't help but to return the gesture. She's a sweet lady. Any man would fall for her. He stared at her and he can't help to admire her beauty. Hindi nakakasawang titigan lalo na kapag ngumingiti na eto. Pati mata ay nakangiti din.
"Alright" he whispered and drove them to amusement park.
Pagdating pa lamang nila sa nasabing lugar ay mas nauna pang bumaba si alexa at tuwang tuwa etong inantay siya sabay yakap sa braso niya at tinuro ang feeris wheel na gusto netong sakyan.
He felt a pang in his chest. Kumislot bigla ang puso niya. It felt weird. He knows he loves maya but why it feels weird when his looking at alexa. When his holding her. He kind of felt protective of her all of a sudden.
Inalalayan niya eto pasakay ng feeris wheel. Dalawa lamang silang nasa loob ng umandar eto.
"Ang galing. I've neveer been here. My parents and grandparents are too overprotective of me to the point na nakakasakal na. Minsan nakakainis but what can I do. They were just protecting me dahil sabi nga nag-iisang babae lamang ako ng pamilya at prinsesa. So-" napatitig na naman siya dito. Sa pagdaan ng araw ay unti-unti niya etong nakikilala at napagtanto niyang mabait at masunurin etong anak.
Is he wrong? He knows he likes maya. Mahal niya eto? Mahal niya nga ba si maya? Bigla natigilan siya. Napaisip.
Fuck this!
"Uy raffy ayos ka lang?" Nag-aalalang tanong ni alexa. Kanina niya pa kasi napapansin si raffy na natitigilan. Palageng tumititig sa kanya tapos mag-iiwas ng tingin. It felt weird. At the same time ay may ibang nararamdaman si alexa. She likes rafael. Her grandfather ask her na kilalanin muna ang mapapangasawa niya bago siya humindi sa kasal.
"The Simons are powerful people. Our ancestors had been their allies for generations and you are bound to marry one of the Simons alexa. You can't say NO. I'll talk to their patriarch and make the deal of our families be legal. Pangako na isinulat sa dugo mismo ng ating ninuno na hindi mapuputol ang ating sinimulan. Bibigkisin ang ating pamilya bilang isa. Make me proud my grandaughter"
At ngayong nasa harap niya at kasama niya ang lalaking inilaan ng pamilya para sa kanya ay gagawin niya lahat magustuhan at mahalin lamang siya ni rafael.
Raffy blink. Damn it! Is he starting to like alexa? But what about his mayanera? And by the mention of mayanera's name his heart started to pounce. Lumalakas na halos mabingi siya. Shit! This is getting out of his grasp he can't like alexa. Yet his heart says otherwise. He thiks his starting ng to see her and its making her heart go haywire.
Pagkatapos ng feeris wheel ay sa cart wheel naman eto sumakay. Pinanuod niya na lamang eto and she looks likr a kid deprive of simple things in life. Halos karamihan sa mga kalalakihang nadadaanan ng tingin niya ay dito na nakatingin sa sarap ba nmn netong panoorin habang tumatawang naglalaro.
His fone vibrated kaya hinugot niya eto sa bulsa at sinagot nang makitang ang daddy niya ang nsa kabilang linya.
"You need to be home at six son. Are you with alexa?" Nagtataka man ay sinagot niya ang ama at sinabi na namasyal sila ni alexa
"Bring her. The party will start at seven pm. Don't be late-"
"Wait? What party?" rinig niya ang buntunghininga ng daddy niya.
"Just be her before seven. I'll text you the address" and his dad hang up. He was gapinh at his phone when he felt someome kissed him. Mabilis niyang nabalingan si alexa na ngiting ngiti.
"You eye brows furrowed honey. And i want to kissed you kasi nakakailang na yung tingin ng mga kalalakihan. I just want them to see that i am already takem by you" and alexa wink. Napatitig siya dito. And he just realized at that moment why his heart pounded and why he felt a protective things towards her. She looks so delicate. So naive.
He sigh. Napapaisip siya sa party na tinawag ng ama. What could it be?
Nang nasa sasakyan na sila papunta sa hotel na itenext ng ama ay di mapigilang maglakbay ng isip niya kay mayanera. What should she feel kapag dinala niya rin eto sa amusement park. He's trying his best to fullfill families traditions.
"Hey, are you okay raffy?" nagulat siya sa malambot na kamay pumatong sa kanyang braso. Alexa stared at him worriedly.
"Are we going to the hotel? Mom and Dad said the engagement will start at eight in the evening that's why i asked you to take me to amusement park beacase when we start preparing for our wedding I don't think we can go there again and-"
"What engagement?" Natigil si alexa sa pagkekwento at napatitig sa kanya sa nagtatanong na mga mata
"Our engagement" and he just fucked up when he heard her say those words. The day he dreades not to come. The words he hated to hear.
Fuck Engagement!
If he will to be engage he wants it to the woman he longed to be with for the rest of his life. He want to be it to the woman he love. His heart.
