Napatakip ako sa bibig ko when I realized what I just fuckin said. I witnessed the infamous smirk again. Goodness!
"Really?" He asked and smirked. I can't answer. Mag-isip ka Christina! Gaga mo!
"Gago! Sagutin mo nga phone mo! Ang ingay niyan!" Singhal ko. Tsk tsk. He chuckled.
"As you wish madame" and he took the call. Turns out that it's his babe ang tumawag. Haayy. What are we even doing?
"Babe. Napatawag ka?"
"Missed you too."
Kakakita niyo lang eh! Mga 30 minutes lang naman ata ang lumipas! Okay, bat ba naiinis ako? Brrr. Napatingin si Van sa'kin and he chuckled. He chuckled! What's wrong with him?! Is it obvious that I'm pissed or what?
"Ah wala babe. May nakikita lang akong nakakatuwa dito"
Is that me?!
"Pabalik na ako sa firm babe. Why?"
I rolled my eyes. Such a cheater! Okay, pati na rin pala ako.
"Okay. Bye. I love you"
I love you. Those words struck me. I shouldn't tolerate him. Pero tangina, wala naman akong magagawa. I'm loving this thrilling situation!
"Hey. Are you all right?" At niyugyog niya ako ng mahina that made me come back to my senses.
"Yes I am. Please take me to the house instead"
"All right."
Tahimik naming tinahak ang daan hanggang makarating nalang kami sa bahay. Lumabas ako ng sasakyan. I was about to open the gate.
"Ehem" Napalingon ako sakanya and komportableng nakasandal sa sasakyan niya with both hands tucked in his pocket looking hot with his disheveled hair and all. I raised my eyebrow.
"What?"
"Won't you thank me?"
"No, I should thank Ali instead." He chuckled. Na naman?! Problema neto? Good mood masyado.
"Won't you invite me there inside your house?"
"No thanks, baka ano pang mangyari"
"As if you don't like it"
"Argh! Gago! Umalis ka na nga! Punta ka na sa firm mo!" Singhal ko.
"I will. I will. Babalik ako later."
"Why?"
"Because I said it in my notes?" He said it like it was the most obvious answer. With his answer, biglang nakapameywang ako at umiling naman siya.
"And of course I'm your bodyguard remember?" Gago. Susuriin lang naman niya yung backyard namin nagkataon lang na naghahanap ng bantay si daddy para sakin. Architect naman na siya ba't kailangan pang mag side job? Tsk!
"Whatever you say mister! Kaya shoo! shoo!" Lumapit ako sakanya at umaksyon na parang nagtataboy ng aso but what happened next made me dumbfounded. Biglang niya kasing hinapit yung beywang ko causing me to bump unto him and making it look like he's hugging me. He smiled and tucked a few strands of my hair behind my ears.
"You're irresistibly beautiful." I'm too shocked to even say a word. I mean, I know pangalawang beses na niyang nasabi sa'kin niyan but it still has that shocking effect on me.
"Can we stay like this for a while?" He asked then guided my head to rest it on his chest and I closed my eyes automatically. And I swear it was the most comfortble place that I've ever been! I don't know what's into him but I liked what he did just right this moment kahit na kakakilala palang namin. Argh!
"Christy" In his most soothing and calm voice he used, I melt.
"Hmm?"
"Will you wait?"
"What?" Wait for what? I'm confused. Hello? Baka may package or what. Dzuh!
Ang peaceful ng moment ngayon but I know that it won't last forever dahil time comes, this peaceful moment will become chaotic.
"I gotta go Chrsity" Bumitaw na siya sa'kin and faced me.
"All right. You take care" I said. He nodded in response and kissed my forehead. We both smiled because it was sweet, sooner this sweet thing will turn into a bittersweet one and I need to prepare for that moment.
"I will" He was about to open the car's door nang may tumawag kay Van in a most serious tone.
"Van"
Lumingon kami kung saan nanggaling yun and oh my ghad!
