Fiancé

"Ayoko nga, sino ka ba ha?!" tinaasan ko na siya ng boses.

Kung umakto akala mo naman kung sino sa akin, kanina mabait ngayon bumabalik na sa pagiging masama.

"Do I need to repeat myself? I'm your fiancé Claire and I have the rights to know who's your fucking friends and who you need to meet. Don't provoke me or else, you don't know what I can do." he said coldly.

Nakipaglaban ako ng titigan sakaniya kahit nakikita kong na-iirita na siya sa akin ay nagawa ko pa din na matawa.

"You have your girlfriend Evan! and don't fucking my friend because you didn't know her!" pagtatanggol ko.

"I broke up with her." he said and look away.

We became silent for a minute, bakit? Bakit siya nakipaghiwalay? Nalaman ba ng Dad niya?

"Don't mention her again, Claire. I want us to start again, no fighting and shouting."

He walks towards and keep staring at me,

"I want to know more about the girl who I will spend my whole life with."

"Claire bakit hindi mo ko pinuntahan kagabi sa office ko? I'm waiting for you last night." Senyora said while we are eating breakfast.

Hindi ko alam kung anong sasabihin ko sakaniya kanya nanatili akong tahimik dahil lumilipad nanaman ang utak ko sa sinabi ni Evander sakin kagabi.

"I want to know more about the girl who I will spend my whole life with"

Hindi ako masyado nakatulog kagabi sa kaka-isip sa sinabi niya, pagkatapos niyang banggitin ang mga salitang 'yon ay inalisan ko na agad siya at nagkulong na sa kwarto.

I know he's playing with me, maybe he's bored and-

"Clarisse? I'm asking you." banggit ni senyora kaya napatingin ako sakaniya.

"We talked, I'm sorry." singit ni Evander kaya napabaling sakaniya si Senyora.

He's staring at me while eating, he didn't bother to stare back at Senyora.

"Oh, I didn't know hijo. Hindi naman kasi nagsasalita itong si Clarisse sa akin." She laughed awkwardly. 

"I... I'm sorry, totoo po sinabi ni Evander." saad ko.

We became silent 'til we're all done. I plan to go to the farm again, babalikan ko lang 'yong si Adan at Mang Robert. Habang naglalakad ako palabas ay may biglang sumulpot sa gilid ko.

"Where are you going now Claire?" I look at the man who's leaning on the wall and who's wearing a plain black t-shirt, pants and boots, in a simple outfit he still looks like a God to me. At the age of 22-year-old boy it's not so bad for him.

"Are you going to answer me or just keep staring at me?"

Hinuli niya ang tingin ko sabay nginitian niya ako, I felt my knees tremble. I am just sixteen years old but I am feeling this type of kilig? whatever Ana calls it! He just fucking smile at me for the first time!

"S-sa farm, gusto kong bumisita kay Mang Robert," sabi ko sakaniya ng magkaroon ako ng lakas na magsalita.

"Hindi ka pa talaga nadadala sa nangyari sa'yo kahapon ah?" he smirked.

Hindi nalang ako nagsalita ng maalala ko rin ang katangahan ko kahapon.

"Fine, I'll go with you." sabi niya sa akin sabay hila sa braso ko.
