ITlNIGIL ni Hailey ang motor ngunit hindi sya bumaba mula roon. She just held her head high while waiting for Trek's action. Nakita nya ang pagbukas ng pinto ng kotse at kasabay niyon ay ang pagkabog ng kanyang dibdib. Hindi nya maaninag ang mukha nito ngunit sigurado syang salubong ang kilay ni Trek. She could even imagine how the lines form on his forehead as his jaw tightened dahil sa pagkairita. Isa yun sa mga bagay na napapansin nyang ginagawa ni Trek sa tuwing mainit ng ulo nito which she finds very manly.
Lihim nyang pinagalitan ang sarili dahil sa kung anu-anong naiisip. She was in the middle of her escape and she was thinking of how manly he was. Hell! She even finds him sexy on his black leather jacket and tight jeans. Hailey shook her head.
She saw him walked forward and stopped in front of his car. Kasunod niyon ay parang walang anu-anong sumandal ito sa hood ng sasakyan at pinagkrus ang mga braso. He was as if waiting for her to speak up first. Ramdam nya ang mataman nitong pagmamasid sa kanyang mga kilos.
Sino ba sya sa akala nya?, Hailey told herself. He can't expect her to explain what the fuck she was doing in the middle of the road riding his motorbike kahit maghintay pa sya hanggang sumikat ang araw.
Pagkuwan ay nagsalita ito.
"Are you going to run away with my bike?" may pagbabanta sa tono ng pagtatanong nito. And to be honest, Hailey felt a little uneasy with it. But hell no! She won't let him know that he affected her..
"Mabuti pala at naisipan kong bumalik or else hindi ko na maabutan pa ang motor ko."Umiling-iling ito. "Alam mo bang walang ibang nakakahawak nyan maliban sakin?" He took several steps towards her saka tumigil, may tatlong metro ang layo mula sa kinaroroonan nya. Hailey was not sure sa kung ano ang balak ni Trek but she managed to appear calm while thinking of a good comeback.
"What should I do, Trek? It's the only ride I have." umpisa nya. "And as much as I wanted to leave your "baby" here," pang-aasar nya dito. "Sorry but I won't," she paused saka ngumisi. "Maybe after escaping this place, I'll call you where you can find this one." Tinapik nya pa ang sinasakyan na motor saka tumawa. "Or maybe, you can't find it anymore or maybe, just maybe, Trek." Pambibitin nya. "Kung makita mo pa, I can't assure you na buo pa ito. You know mahal rin ang spareparts nito. After all, this one is really good." Sabi nya pa na ang tinutukoy ay ang mamahaling motorbike nito.
To add more insult ay nilakasan pa nya ang tawa. She was laughing out loud para asarin si Trek ngunit agad ring natigilan nang marinig ang sinabi nito.
"How sure are you that you can leave this place, " he exclaimed seriously, "Hailey dela Vega?"
SHE was stunned for a while. What did he just say? She checked herself kung tama ba sya ng dinig. Did he just call her on her real name?
"Toung-tied, Hawk?" Trek asked in mockery. “Or should I say Hailey?" he chuckled nang hindi sya sumagot. "Which one do you prefer, baby?"
Nakuyom ni Hailey ang kamao. So it was confirmed. Bistado na sya ni Trek and she's not expecting that it'll happen that soon. She brushed the surprise on her system and spoke.
"So, you know now kung sino ako." she stated matter of factly. "So what Trek? Are you going to kill me too?"matapang nyang sabi dito.
