Chapter 7

Darius

Simula nang tumanggi siya sa aking alok ay hindi na masigla ang loob ng condo.

Paminsan nalang rin kami nagkikita.

Nagpapakabusy na rin ako sa mga business investors at mga reports habang si Gin naman ay umiiwas sa akin.

Kaya naman ay nagkulong nalang ako sa aking kwarto.

I really hope that she would think about this. Ayoko naman na i-drag siya dito, pero nangyari na at ayoko na rin abalahin si Tina at Geisler. May sarili na silang buhay.

Dahil na rin sa pagkidnap ni Adrian sa akin ay nagiging paranoid na ako sa aking paligid. Na-iistress na rin ako eh.

I just hope that my face won't become so haggard and worn out.

God I miss her enthusiasm.

****

"Sir, here are the reports from yesterday's meeting." Ani ni Geisler habang inilapat ang folder na kanyang hawak hawak. Tumango lang ako at hindi na umimik.

Halata na rin na napansin ni Geisler ito ngunit hindi na siya nag abala pa at lumabas nalang sa office na walang tanong.

Ughh. this is so embarassing...

I really really took the time and effort to plan about my trip, and then this happened.

It's not like I blame Gin and Geisler for this because honestly, it's my fault.

I'm really a hopeless romantic gay -.-

"Zen? Zen?? Zenriel? Can I come in?" Pag-uulit na katok ng tao. Kumunot lang ang aking noo, hindi ko alam ngunit biglang sumikip ang aking lalamunan at hindi ako makasalita.

"c-come- come in!" Matipunong ani ko.

There, the door was slightly opened and a woman's head came in to peek.
"Zen?"

I buried my hands to my face. Jesus kilala ko 'tong boses na ito.

"Zenny! I missed you!" Tina squealed and immediately hugged me. I rolled my eyes at her but still patted her back affectionately.

"Tina...ba't naparito ka?" I asked quietly. She just jumped excitedly and grinned like a madwoman.

"I heard about the sudden failure of the investors. What happened?" Seryosong tanong niya. Napa-iling lang ako at nagbuntong hininga.

"Adrian Salcedo ruined the investment. Basically by almost luring me into investing into their company." I muttered, cringing at myself.

"Adrian? as in yung boyfie mo?" She gasp dramatically.

Napairap lang ako sa kanya at tumango. Gosh napaka OA nitong impaktang 'to.

"Yes Adrian as in yung EX ko." diin ko sa kanya.

"Hayst Zen, ang malas mo talaga pag dating sa pag-ibig." Panunukso niya at napaupo sa aking sofa.

Napatayo lang ako sa aking kinauupuan at umupo sa kanyang tabi. "Wow ha, porket may asawa ka na pwede mo na akong asarin." Wika ko at napatingin sa kanyang wedding ring. Ngumiti lang siya at sumandal sa aking balikat.

"Akala ko na kasi noon..tayo na, tapos, too late na rin nung nalaman ko na baklush ka. Ipinagkasundo na tayo eh."

Napaisip lang rin ako sa mga kagaguhan namin ni Tina noon.

Back then we were highschool sweethearts, hanggang sa nag college kami at hanggang sa career namin. Mas bestfriends pa nga kami kaysa mag jowa eh.

Dahil na rin sa wealth ng parents namin ay naisipan nila na ipagkasundo kami. I know well that it's a bad idea, because I know to myself that I'm getting confused about my sexuality.

I shut people out, especially Tina. I can't even tell my family.

Alam na alam ko kung anong gagawin nila sa akin kung sa oras na malaman nila.

Buti nalang rin at andyan si Geisler para kay Tina, but at first I was hesitant to let her go, but eventually I finally did it.

And it hurted me to see her with someone else.

For a few months in america I had met Adrian. Oh he was charming *insert sarcasm*

Kung alam ko lang talaga na ginagamit lang ako ng Adrian na yan. Hmph. Gin was right, he was up to something.

"Darius, kape muna oh! mukhang malalim 'yang iniisip mo." Geisler laughed as he made his way across us.

I came back to my senses as soon as he said that. Of course. "Tsk. yeah right." I grumbled under my breath.

"I just wish we could talk freely for today Zen, Hon can you escort me outside?" Pagtitili ni Tina. Tumango tango rin ang isa at tumayo. Tina sadly smiled at my and leave a peck on my cheek. "I'll be back for the arrangements Zen." She winked and excused herself.

****

Time have passed and there is still no call from Gin. I became worried. What if she passed out? or Kinidnap siya? Hay jusko.

"This Girl.." I muttered.

It was already evening, and Gin should be calling me right now. I mean I know that she's avoiding me but this is something new.

Napa-iling lang ako sa sarili ko at hindi na pinansin ang iniisip ko. Mukhang wala lang talaga siyang gana para tawagan ako.

I buried my face on the table. Seems like being a CEO of a enormous company is a stressful job.

I blacked out for a few minutes suddenly hearing faint knocks. I groggily prepped myself up rubbing my eyes.

When I regained my composure I noticed that it was raining heavily.

"Come in.." I monotonically said.

My eyes went up to the figure just by the door.

"Gin? bakit ka andito?" Tanong ko.

Hindi lang siya sumagot at biglang lumapit sa akin. I can smell her scent

"Since when did your fashion sense increased?" I jokingly said she just chuckled lowly sitting at my desk.

"U-Uhh?" Shoot. I freakingly forgot how to use words. My throat tightened and basically my palm is sweating.

She sushed me out and suggestively pulled my necktie.

God I feel so dizzy right now.

She then sat on my lap and gently carressed my cheek.

"Gin? what are you-"

I can feel her minty breath, her lips inching closer to me.

Please don't tell me that I'm turned on by this.

Darius. Bakla ka. Gay. Baklush. Bading. Homosexual. BL lover oh ano pa jan. Huhuhu so help me God.

I can feel my pants tighten.

AAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!
