Natalya (La Domina #1)

Chapter 2

Burn

"So you have a place here, huh?" rinig kong tanong nya habang nagpapa-park sa harap ng isang sikat na condo hotel

"Yup. But it seems like, I'm not the only one." sagot ko habang sinusundan ng tingin ang mabilis na paglapit ng dalawang valet sa kotse nya

Sumaludo pa nga ang mga ito habang may malaking ngiti sa mga labi nang makilala ang kotse nya kanina.

He chuckled. "Yeah. I have a place here too, although I'm rarely here because I'm always at my home or in my office in Pasig. If I ever knew you were just here..."

Hindi ko na narinig pa ang mga sunod nyang sinabi dahil bumaba na ako ng kotse. I don't need to hear another pointless words from him.

I just need to try something and be done with it. I sighed.

We're here right now because after he stopped me from kissing him at La Domina earlier, he told me that he don't want us to start like that and he wanted to tell me something. It's very important that he asked for somewhere private.

Sa ugali ni Garrick ay nakuha ko na agad gusto nyang mangyari. Napaismid ako. Pulitiko na nga pala sya at ayaw madumihan ang pangalan at larawan kung sakaling may makakilala sa kanya sa loob ng isang bar.

Ayoko ding lumabas ang mukha ko sa kahit anong form ng media habang kasama ang lalakeng ito so I invited him here, thinking that this is where I lived which he easily agreed. But I actually don't have a place here, I just knew that this is the nearest place that he has, here in BGC according from what Adrianna texted me.

I just need a place where I can conduct my plan.

"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat first?" rinig kong tanong nya pagkatapos maibigay ang susi sa valet at nilapitan ako na nakatayo sa harap ng entrance

Sinalubong ko naman sya at inabot ko ang kwelyo nya at inayos ito.

"Actually, I already looked for the top dish to eat. I just need your permission when can I eat it." I shrugged and looked at him

"Huh? Why?"

Ngumiti ako sa kanya at mas inilapit pa ang sarili.

"Coz it turns out that you're the dish that top the list."

Kuddos to Dorothea for this cheesy pick-up line na natutunan ko noon. Although, its very cringey.

Sandaling nagulat naman si Garrick sa sinabi ko at natulala lang ng ilang segundo bago umiwas ng tingin nang may ngiti sa labi.

He chuckled and reached for my hand that was hanging from his shoulder

"Well the top dish, refused." he answered firmly while in​ter​twin​ing his hand with mine "But he'll cook a real dish for you instead. I'm hungry too so let's just go at my place." dugtong nya pagkatapos ay hinila na ako papasok

I blinked twice when I realized that he just turned me down.

Cook for me? Really? That's not the Garrick that I know.

"Good evening, Mayor Vasquez." bati sa kanya ng dalawang receptionist nang makapasok kami

Tumango lang sya sa mga ito. Pero di nakaligtas sa mga mata ko ang paghagod sa akin ng tingin ng dalawang babaeng yun, mula ulo hanggang paa.

I'm wearing a simple white sleeveless bodycon dress that has a square neckline and a pair of white pointed heels. May trench coat pa akong dala kanina dahil kakagaling ko lang ng trabaho pero naiwan ko ito sa Haven. The point is, wala akong nakikitang mali sa suot ko. But based on the look from those girls, I'm sure they're thinking that I'm one of the sluts na dinadala ng lalakeng ito dito.
