CHAPTER FIFTEEN
"Sweetheart! What's wrong?" tanong ni Leo kay Troian nang maabutan niya itong papasok sa kwarto nila.
He grabs her by the arm and made her turn to face him. "Ba't nag-walk out ka?" Anger and jealousy is written on her face and he tries hard not to grin coz he knows it'll just piss her off more.
"Bumalik ka na dun sa baba. She's waiting," matigas na sabi ni Troian. "No! Ashley can wait. I .wanna know why you ran away, sweetheart?" he sweetly said.
Troian just snapped at him and pulls away her arm.
He crossed his arms and watched her amusingly. He grins. "She's really damn jealous and I both like and hate it? Dang! I'm not making any sense anymore! I like it that she's jealous but I hate it coz I don't wanna cause pain or any negative feelings for her," Leo's thoughts.
"Hey! I told you to get back down there, she might be bored right now," Troian hissed at him which snaps him out of his thought.
"You're jealous," he stated with a grin. "What?!" Her eyes bulged that it almost sprung out from her eyesockets. "I'm not jealous! Conceited!" she fires at him and dart him a glare.
"Actions speaks louder than words, sweetheart. By the way, Ashley's my cousin," he said, grinning.
Troian's jaw dropped. "What? Cousin? Did I heard it right?" she thought. She can't believe what he said. Damn! She feels so ashamed right now. She acted like an idiot, running away and getting mad at him for bringing home a girl who is his cousin. Geeez, that was really a shameful act. She can feel her cheeks flushing so she tilt her head down to hide her face which is full of embarassment.
"Ashley just arrived from States, I picked her up from the airport. She's having her vacation for a month. She's Uncle Stanley's youngest daughter," Leo explained.
"Remember Uncle Stanley? Mom's brother?" he asked when she remained silent. "Yeah," she replied in a really soft voice that he barely heard her.
"Let's go down now?" he asked sweetly as he put a hand on her chin and lifted it up. "Ashley's eager to meet you," he encouraged. Troian just nod.
He smiles then pull her in and hugged her tightly. "I'm not that dick to bring home another woman. Always remember that."
Troian's heart is racing, pumping so hard like it's gonna jump out from its cage.
"Ok." He planted a kiss on her temple before dragging her downstairs.
