Taming Gray

Chapter 31

Comeback

"Is this the last one?" Tanong ni Gray habang ipinapasok sa trunk ng kotse niya ang huling canvas na binili ko.

"Mhh." I hummed as I watch his back flexing and all. I mentally knock myself off. Tanghaling tapat ay pinagnanasahan ko siya.

I can't blame myself though. His shirt was clinging on his body exposing the good linings of his muscles. I suddenly want to trace his muscles with my finger.

"Amber. Are you drooling at me again?" Narinig ko ang pagtawa ni Gray.

Kumurap ako at tiningnan siya. Nakaharap na ito sa akin ngayon at mukhang may sinasabi.

"Com'on, I'm hungry." Iyon na lamang ang sinabi niya at tuluyan na akong hinila papasok muli ng mall.

Pumasok kami sa isang pizza parlor pagkatapos sabihin ni Gray na hindi raw masarap ang ginawang sandwich ng kapatid niya.

"Good morning. Welcome to Pizza Plaza." The girl behind the cash register greeted us. She even have the courage to bat her flirty eyelashes at Gray, who is unaware as he is now busy looking at the different pizza variants on the menu board.

"What do you want babe?" Tanong ni Gray habang ang mga tingin ay naroon parin sa menu.

Ngumisi ako sa babae dahilan para mag-iwas siya ng tingin.

"Ikaw bahala." Sagot ko.

"How about Texas BBQ Chicken Pizza? What do you think?"

"Mh. It looks good."

"Texas BBQ Chicken then." Bumaba na ang tingin niya sa cash register. "And add mojos." Gray added.

The cashier checker repeated his order before Gray paid for it.

Nang pagkakataong maghahanap na kami ng mauupuan, naramdaman ko ang pagsulyap sa akin ni Gray.

Kumunot ang noo niya. "What's with that look?"

"Huh?" I asked in confusion.

"You look like you just won the lottery." Nahihiwagaan niyang sabi bago ngumiti.

Nagkibit-balikat ako. Umupo kami sa pangdalawahang couch sa tabi ng floor-to-ceiling glass wall ng establishment.

"Can I say that the prize to that lottery is you?" I smiled at him smugly.

He gave me his boyish grin, he crossed his arms and leaned on his chair. Hindi na siya nag-komento pa pero kita ko ang hindi maalis-alis na ngiti sa mukha niya hanggang matapos kaming kumain. Kinilig yata ang lolo niyo.

"So, how about we just drop your things in your house and come to my house?" Nilingon ko si Gray nang magsalita ito. Kasalukuyan niyang inililiko ang sasakyan palabas ng parking lot ng mall.

I comprehend his suggestion for a second. "Ano namang gagawin ko sa inyo?"

Nagkibit-balikat siya habang mahusay na minamaneho ang sasakyan nito. "Anything, or we can make use of our movie theater so that I can cuddle with you all day." Tumaas ang gilid ng labi niya.

"Nah. Give me more reasons why I should spend the day with you." I crossed my arms and look at him challengingly. A smile is plastered on my face.

"Mhh." He put a finger under his chin, mimicking a thinking man. "You can drool at my oh-so-sexy body for the whole day." He wink at me suggestively.

Wala akong ibang nagawa kung hindi ang tumawa. Sinabayan niya rin ito ng kanyang sexy-ng paghalakhak.

Tumango ako. Pwede.
