BITCHES SERIES 1 💗RED💗 : Love At First Sight

Chapter 16 : Moved In

"How about Dilbert Cerezo?"

Para akong pinalibutan ng yelo. Ang lamig ng pakiramdam ko at sobrang bilis ng tibok ng puso ko. Para akong masusuka sa kabang biglang bumalot sakin, kaya napasandal na lang ako sa sofa. Hindi ko maalis ang tingin sa mukha ni Garrett. At kitang-kita ko kung gaano kalawak ang pagkakangisi niya.

"She knew Dickbert?" Tanong ni Onyx kay Garrett pero sa akin nakatingin. Silang lahat ay sa akin nakatutok ang tingin maging si Higs ay ramdam kong nasa akin ang tingin.

"She's the fierce chic I was talking about who burned Dickbert's ass!" sabi ni Garrett na hindi rin inaalis ang pagkakatingin sa akin.

"You're working at GarTees?" tanong ni Higs pero hindi ko siya malingon. Hinang-hina ang pakiramdam ko at kahit ang pagkurap ay hindi ko magawa.

"The fuck dude? Hindi mo alam kung saan nagtatrabaho ang girlfriend mo?" Tanong ni Garrett na nalipat na ang tingin kay Higs.

"She didn't told me." Sagot ni Higs pero ramdam ko pa rin sa akin ang tingin niya.

"Because you never asked." Sagot ko na lang at napayuko. The hell's wrong with the world? Bakit alam ni Garrett?

"I own GarTees." sabi ni Garrett na parang nabasa ang nasa isip ko.

Napaangat na lang ulit ang mukha ko pero kay Higs na ako tumingin. "Well I don't think that he's serious about what he said."

"Then you should take his words seriously." Si Garrett ulit. "He was fuming mad, he pulled out his share that very day!"

Fuck! I know. Chic and Gwen told me about that.

"Didn't you know that he's so obsessed about you, he made a portrait of you in his office?"

"Oh my!" Biglang react ni Clarice. "Is he the same guy who got obsessed with Dana when we're in college?"

"Yeah, he's the same guy." Sagot naman ni Onyx. "The same lunatic loser."

"Oh my God, Hun. You really should move in. You don't know what he's capable of! He cut my hair when we're in college and stalked me!" sabi naman ni Dana.

"And for sure, kapag nalaman niyang si Rave ang boyfriend mo lalong mauulol yun sayo!" sabi pa ni Garrett.

"That's it!" Bigla namang sabi ni Higs sa tabi ko. Kaya naman naibalik ko ang tingin sa kanya. "You're moving in, Crim!"

"But—"

"No buts. We're not gonna fight about this, Crim. You're moving in here and I won't take your no this time."

Sinamaan niya ako ng tingin. Iba pala ang mga mata niya, kapag tumitig ng normal, shit nakakalunod. Kapag galit, double shit nakakapanindig balahibo. Pero kapag malagkit triple shit! Nakakatunaw! Awh! Landi!

"Kaya pala naging magugulatin ka this past days at nagdagdag pa ng locks! May ganyan na palang nangyayari sayo. You don't even care to tell me."

Napabuntong hininga naman ako. Guilty ako, kaya napayuko na lang ako. "I'm sorry babe."

Napalingon naman ako sa mga kasama namin. "Is it really necessary?" Parang iisang tao naman silang nagsipagtango.

"Why do you think we're living all in the same house with our girls? It's not that we're afraid of that loser, but we just want to make sure that they are safe all the time." sabi naman ni Onyx.
