I Won't Let You Go

Jealous?

Ice Claude's
We were walking towards the restaurant of the resort here to have a meal.

"Ice!!"

Paglingon ko sa taong tumawag sa akin ay nanlaki ang mata ko at sinalo siya pero dahil mabigat siya at biglaan siyang tumakbo patalon sa akin ay natumba nanaman kami sa sahig.

"Argh! I told you many times not to jump on me like that!" Inis kong sabi kay Vlad.

He just laughed bago tumayo at hinila ako patayo.
He hugged me once more.
Pagtingin ko kay Kian ay nakataas ang isang kilay niya habang nakatingin sa amin.

"I missed you Ice! I never thought I'd see you here!" Masayang sabi niya.

"Yeah yeah whatever. We're hungry so please let go already." Sabi ko.

"We?" Tanung niya at bumitaw sa akin sabay tingin sa likuran niya. There stood Morris who was wearing a serious face with Kian who was still raising a brow.
What's with them?

Huminga ako ng malalim.

"Ahh! Morris!" Sabi niya at akmang yayakapin pero pinigilan siya ni Morris. Itinulak niya si Vlad sa noo.

"That was dangerous. Jumping on people so suddenly.. You should really start planting that in your head, Caldrix."
Masungit na sabi ni Morris.

I asked him why is he only using honorifics towards me and my brother. He said he'd never want to call someone as childish as Vlad as his master or even sir.
Although he's being childish while saying it as well.

"Kian, this is Caldrix Vladimir Towers. And this is Kian Steve Park." Pakilala ko sa kanilang dalawa.

Inilahad naman agad ni Vlad ang kamay niya kay Kian.
"Nice to meet the second friend of this cold blooded Ice."

Tinitigan ni Kian ang kamay ni Vlad bago ito tinanggap after a moment of hesitation.
"Nice to meet you as well."

Pumunta nalang kaming lahat papunta sa restaurant kasi mag isa lang daw ni Vlad. He was here with his Mother and Brother pero hindi sila palapasyal kaya siya lang mag isa ang lumabas.

Kumakain kami at kuwento ng kuwento si Vlad kay Kian ng mga bagay tungkol sa akin.
Napapansin ko namang napapasalubong at napapataas ang kilay ni Kian pero attentive namang nakikinig at nagtatanung paminsan minsan so I thought they're good.

Pagkatapos kumain ay hinila agad ako ni Vlad at inakbayan.
Naglalakad lakad kami sa may beach. May Festival kasi ngayon dito kaya may mga booth sa tabing dagat.
The last night will be on 29.

Nang magsawang umakbay si Vlad ay Hinawakan ako sa kamay at hinila habang palipat lipat kami sa souvenirs booth at pasabalong area.
Wala namang malisya sa amin yun since mahilig talaga siyang humawak ng kamay ng iba.

Pinasukat pa niya ako ng kung ano anong shirts jackets pati mga sumbrero.
Binilhan niya ako ng t shirt at jacket na may kapareho sa kanya.

Nang magsawa ay pumunta kami sa ice cream stall sa gilid.
Napapalingon ako kina Morris at Kian kanina pa and I can really feel his gloomy aura and he's been so silent. Sometimes I can feels pricking stares from the both of them as well.

Napatingin ako kay Vlad nung magring ang phone niya.
"Excuse me guys.. I'll just take this call."

Tahimik kaming tumango.
Maya maya pa ay bumalik siya.
"I'm sorry guys, I need to go. Something came up."

"It's okay. Be careful on your way" mabilis na sagot ni Kian.
I looked at him and his gloomy aura just now seem to have dissipated somewhere else.
