Embracing the Chaos (Eclipse Series #1)

Chapter 03

Natatawang mukha ni Wyn ang bungad nito sa akin after telling her that. Sabagay, she's not Wyn if she's not being like this to me.

"What so funny ba? I hate you!"

Halos takpan ko na ang mukha ni Wyn na kanina pa nagpipigil ng tawa. Plus the fact that everyone are watching us bickered here in Lemonade.

"You," Pinalobo nito ang pisngi niya, umirap ako. "He's lowkey taking you as joke." She then burst into a laughter.

Hinampas ko ng hawak kong libro si Wyn na kanina pa ako patagong tinatawanan. Naiinis na ako, mabuti pang hindi ko na lang sinabi ang tungkol sa bagay na 'yon.

Sanay naman na akong mangimkim ang sama ng loob at mga sikreto. This just bothering me so I tell her about it.

"Fuck you!" Sinupalpal ko ito bago nag-focus na lang sa binabasa.

I'm holding a book and reading it carefully. Nasa may exciting part na ako ng novel na 'to and yet Wynonna's started to disturb my inner peace.

I'm still pissed about that. I felt like I'm a joke but I'm not offended because what he said was actually on point. That's why I'm really pissed.

Ano bang karapatan niyang diktahan ako sa mga gusto kong gawin at hindi? I admit I'm not taking study seriously than it should be but is he my parents or something? Ang annoying lang.

Hindi man lang niya sinabi na gusto niyang maging daddy ko, char. Set aside my kalat, naiinis talaga ako.

"Did he really said that?"

She's turning into bright red, pigil na pigil ang tawa dahil alam niyang naiinis na ako ngayon at baka bigwasan ko na siya. Tho, there's a soft chuckled escaping on her lips because she can't stop it, ka-badtrip ampota.

I sipped on my Apple Juice. Lemonade is serving a fresh juice so we came here and I'm grounded. I smiled fakely when I caught one of the customer's eyes watching us. Some of them are from La France Univ. Tinakpan ko ang mukha ko gamit ang librong dala ko nang tumawa ng malakas si Wyn.

Tangina, isa pa if-friendship over ko 'to.

"It's not funny tho," Nakanguso kong bulong, still hiding my face while reading. "Stop laughing na!" Banta ko.

Mas lalo itong tumawa para mas mainis ako rito. Ako rin namumula na sa pinaghalong inis at hiya. I've never been a topic in town for I'm trying my best to remain lowkey in people eyes.

I was so embarrassed on what Axel's said in front of my face that I forbid myself to see him. I avoided him at any chance I get. I tried to stop liking him as well but I can't stop thinking about it.

It drive me nuts!

"It is kaya." She still insisted while biting her lips, supressing her laugh."I told you, that Fortugues is out of your league." She snapped her finger in front of my face.

"Ah, whatever!" Umirap ako.

"I'll make kwento," She suddenly went serious.

I nodded. I'm not interested if it's all about her crush who like her back or if it's all about the mess she creates while drunk. For pete's sake, laging gan'on ang kwento niya sa akin.

Pumalumbaba siya, "You know kuya Diordè?" She asked, tamad akong tumango bilang sagot dito. So, what's with him ba? "Kasal sila ni Ate Triofea which is pinsan ni Axel."

"Tapos?" I asked, still uninterested.

"It was a fixed marriage kasi!" She said as she grabbed the book I'm reading so that I can focus on what she's saying. "So, there's an instances that Axel will undergo the same as ate Triofea since they're cousin." She concluded.
