NOPI Chapter 37

Sephine's POV

Kinuha ko na yung kustara't tinidor ko pero hindi ko maigalaw ang kamay ko. Nagdalawang isip muna ako bago ako nagsalita.

"Uhh. Isn't this too much for us?" tanong ko habang tinignan ang mga pagkaing nasa harapan namin ngayon

May limang serve ng barbeque, shawarma, hotdogs, fishballs, pizza, tempura, kikiam, siopao, siomai, kwekkwek, shake, ice cream, water and.. Is that.. Isaw?

I've seen them before and I only knew some of what they're called just now because they are names in the small card boards written with their names beneath them.

This store is very accommodating. Did they notice that I'm not used to these?

"Just start with what you want to eat. We can take our time," sagot niya saka niya kinuha 'yung isang isaw kaya naman pinanood ko siya habang kinakain niya 'yon

How can someone be so handsome even eating something like isaw? Charles! Of course! Edi siya na ang gwapo.

Dahil ignorante ako eh kinuha ko rin 'yung isaw at walang dalawang isip itong kinain.

Nakakunot ang noo ko habang ngininguya ko ito't pinapanood lang ako ni Charles habang tawa ng tawa.

"Hmm. It's good" sagot ko saka ko kinuha ang isang stick at tinusok ang isang siomai at agad itong isinubo

"Hmm! This is good too!" sagot ko saka ko kinuha ang sumunod pang pagkain not noticing that Charles already stopped eating and was only watching me

"Seph," tawag niya kaya naman bahagya akong napahinto sa kakatusok sa mga pagkain at agad na kinuha ang shake saka nag-sip dito

"Hindi mo ba ako tatanungin kung bakit ito ang pinakain ko sayo at kung bakit dito kita dinala?" tanong niya kaya naman napa-tilt ang ulo ko

"Nope. Tama nga naman ano? Base sa rumors na naririnig ko ikaw raw 'yung tipo ng lalaking mahilig sa 'The best', 'grand' at kung anu ano pang mamahalin which is fit for someone with your title" sagot ko kaya naman natawa siya

"Well, at least now you know the difference between the rumors and the truth. Bakit ikaw? Mukhang hindi ka naman sanay sa mga ganito ah, ba't pumayag ka na dalhin kita dito instead of a 5 star restaurant?" tanong niya kaya naman napataas ang kilay ko

"What?" tanong niya

"At least now you know the difference between expectations versus reality" pangga-gaya ko sa sinabi niya dahilan kung bakit siya ngumiti

"You're really different from the rest, you're the either the best or perfect" agad ko nang tinabunan ang mukha ko dahil sa sinabi niya dahilan kung bakit siya natawa

"I love seeing you blush, Seph. Don't cover your face," sagot niya pero hindi ko parin siya pinakinggan at tinabunan lang ang mukha ko

Nang maramdaman ko ang napaka-init niyang kamay na humawak sa akin ay agad na akong napasilip sakanya.

"Straightforward and modest, smart and calm, beautiful and so graceful. Sephine Cruz, just who are you? Why do you keep on making my heart beat so fast?" tanong niya saka niya binabi ang mga kamay ko saka ako tinitigan ng seryoso

Being under his stare.. isn't uncomfortable at all. In actuality, if you saw his eyes, you would feel like you're being sucked into a deep hole but the only thing that's weird in that aspect, is that you don't want to retaliate or even try to escape.

He has complete control of my feelings. I didn't know I could fall for someone this deep.

"My heart is also trembling with too much affection from you, so could you stop confessing already?" naiinis kong tanong dahilan kung bakit siya natawa at sinimulan nang paglaruan ang mga kamay kong hawak hawak niya
