Gabriella's POV
I'm not going to lie, the urge to throw Alexander across this place or to just hurt him really really badly has become quite strong, and is still growing as time passes by.
During the early duration of the movie he did nothing but give me snarky remarks and trivial insults. At first I really didn't mind since I told myself he's only being childish and confronting him for it might stir up nothing but nonsensical arguments, and that's not something one should be involved in specially at a cinema. Not until for almost half an hour now, he's still throwing insults under his breath that I'm positive he made sure only I could hear.
Hindi ko na mabilang kung nakailang buntong hininga na ako just to try and calm myself down. It didn't really help din na his annoying demeanor is being fueled by his egotistical way of belittling other people. The people being said would be me.
The movie is almost at its end but he still wouldn't stop calling me names. Tingin ko nga he found it more amusing to insult me rather than just watch the entire movie. Again, childish.
Pero despite the urge to twist his body in such unimaginable angles, I remained benevolent. He wants to start something with me. It's pretty obvious. Most probably the fight he's been dying to have.
With yet another sigh sinubukan ko nalang ulit ituon ang aking attention sa malaking screen sa harap nang maikalma ko ang aking sarili pakatapos kong marinig ang panlalait nitong katabi ko about my supposed body and how I look like a 'retarded swine' as he defined it. Insults like this don't affect me really, but I guess at some point, specially went it's constantly repeated, it gets to you. And right now I could feel every bit of word, every syllable, coming from that mouth of his sink deep down my being.
"Ay hala ang panget naman nun! Hahahahaha parang si ano." Sabi niya trying to associate me with one of the movie's character. The attempt only made me heave another sigh.
"Shh, masyado kang maingay. Other people are watching." Saway sakan'ya ni Mike resulting him to scowl.
In my peripheral view, I saw how he threw one nasty look at my direction before setting his eyes back on the screen as he proceeded to mutter out words of defamation.
"'Di parin ba 'yan tapos?" Nabaling ang aking atensyon kay Dems nang siya'y magsalita. She has this tired look on her face indicating that she's been listening to Alexander's undying barrage of infantile insults hurdled towards me.
Hindi ako sumagot at walang gana ko lang ibinalik ang aking tingin sa screen. She took that gesture as a yes naman when she worded the words 'tarantado talaga'. Although I understand where she's coming from, I still didn't enjoy the profanity that was said.
And speaking of profanity, I've been enduring them a lot specially since this person who's done nothing but throw insults towards me loves to use them.
"Tangina ang panget naman nun oh. Ba't kaya may mga panget sa mundo?" Mahinang sabi niya.
I felt my jaw tightening.
Calm down.
When the movie ended I couldn't have been anymore ready to leave. As soon as lumabas na ang mga credentials I quickly stood up from where I was situated at mabilis na naglakad right pass them. Alam kong this is unlikely of me to just leave my companions unannounced pero I feel like any more I stay in close proximity to him, I'll lose control. And that's the last thing I want.
Narinig ko naman ang pagtawag sa'kin nina Adri nang maka-step out na ako sa row ng seats namin, but I couldn't look back knowing he's still there and I might actually burst.
