I saw her again..
He's rushing to reach the elevator so he could go to tenth floor. But on his way, a sight of this girl suddenly stop him from moving. His heart skip a beat. Then, he slowly walking towards the lift entrance and try to ignore her presence. They didn't even noticed him because aside from wearing a black cap that almost covered his face, couple of women were busy bullying this girl.
He witnessed how they mocked at her and laughed at her. His brows furrowed and greeted his teeth. Pitied for this girl, who wasn't able to protect herself from those bitches. He witnessed how she closed her eyes and took a firm hold on her fist so she can control the angry inside her that might going to burst out anytime. He admired this girl, who managed to control everything and chose to kept in silence.
Some who's also inside the lift were feasting their eyes on her wet blouse, as if she's almost naked, where they have seen her black brassiere undergarment.. And it makes him more angry. But this girl try to cover her wetness by her arms. And then again she closed her eyes as if tears might falling.
"Here, Miss. Use my coat." he immediately handed his coat and put it on her shoulder to cover herself . And then he heared those bitches a loud gasped. As if their in shock seeing me. But he ignored them.
"Oh my Gosh!" Loren's jaw dropped on what she saw, parang 'di makapaniwala sa nakikita niya. Even her eyes twinkled.
"Are you ok now, Miss?" the man continue asking with concerned. Unti unting namang umangat ang tingin ni Khady sa pinanggalingan ng swabeng tinig na 'yon...
Now, he finally saw this girl's face with this closed. Una niyang napansin ang magandang mata nito. Sa kabila ng makapal na salaming suot nito ay hindi maitatago. A mixture of colours green and brown pero mas lamang ang brown kung tititigan ito.
Hazel eyes.
Bumagay ito sa kaniya dahil hugis almond 'yun.What's that?... sparks?
Hindi niya maintindihan ang bumalot sa kaniyang katawan. Parang may kung anong kuryente siyang naramdaman.
Then, his eyes continue exploring her face. Again, he mesmerized how beautiful of her face, those rosy cheeks, pointed nose, and when he continue travelling down through her lips. It still open in shocked. Her luscious lips were inviting. He groaned in silence.
Para namang natauhan si Khady, napatuwid siya ng tayo. "Ahm, o-oo okey l-lang po ako." tarantang sagot niya. Napayuko ulit, nahihiya sa hitsura niya samantalang napakagwapo ng nasa harap niya. Napayakap ng mahigpit sa coat na suot niya.
Salamat sa coat nito at natakpan ang halos kita na niyang kaluluwa.
Napapikit siya. Natauhan dahil para siyang nakakita ng greek God na nakatayo sa harapan niya. Pansamantalang nakalimutan niya ang kahihiyang nangyari sa kaniya.
Samantala, para namang walang tao sa paligid. Tulala sina Loren ng tingnan niya. Tulalang nakatingin sa lalaking tumulong sa kaniya. Shocked written all over their faces. Napa-angat muli ang tingin niya sa lalaking tumulong sa kaniya nang maramdaman niya ang kamay nito sa balikat niya.
"Come on, you better get change." aya nito sa kaniya. Saktong bumukas ang lift, hindi agad naproseso ang utak niya nang hilahin siya palabas ng estrangherong lalaki. Tuloy tuloy silang lumabas ng hila hila ang kamay niyang hawak nito.
Tiningnan niya ang magkahawak nilang kamay.
Bakit ang sarap sa pakiramdam?
Hindi siya nakatutol sa kabiglaan. Pero aaminin niya gusto niya ang nararamdaman niya habang hawak nito ang kamay niya. Nagpatianod nalang siya dahil gusto na talaga niyang magkalayo kina Loren at magpalit sa lagkit ng katawan niya.
