Third Person's P.O.V
~*~
BEHOLD, a man with a captivating personality is coming wearing the smile that kills every girl who envy him.
He is absolutely handsome and he's walking with confidence knowing that he is the only one who's gifted with everything that he has, the looks, wealth, and talents.
Came from a wealthy family; having a wild circle of friends who're exactly the same as him.
Did I mention that he's damn rich? Cause he is. So, anything he wants, will or must, be given to him.
He can buy anyone's life, body, and even soul.
He already has everything, replaceable by money.
All he wanted is to enjoy his bachelor life, freedom, attachment with lots of girls, and wild people that surrounds him.
"Dude are you taking Amber for serious?"
Maagap na tanong ni Gelo kay Edward. The latter looked Gelo instantly.
"What made you think that I am taking her for serious?"
"Well unlike your other flings, she lasts longer than ever, are you enjoying yourself with her company?" Balik na tanong naman ni Gelo sa kanya.
Kasalukuyang magkasabay na naglalakad ang dalawa patungo sa kanilang silid paaralan.
Hindi na niya sinagot ang tanong ni Gelo, instead, he is estimating kung ilang buwan na nga ba sila ni Amber.
Amber was like his childhood sweetheart. At a young age, he considered his feelings for Amber that it is love, but it was forbidden back in their childhood times for they were too young, and another reason was, Amber's family migrated in USA for some reason which is unknown to him.
Edward grew wild. He always does things which brings headache to his parents. Until his parents let him do whatever he wants knowing he is uncontrollable.
He became more wilder thinking that he is alone and no one cares for him.
His parents only give money for him to spend, lets him use their wealth, he is bound of overpowering the other people claiming how mighty he can be.
He is known as a perverted jerk; he replaces girls just like his dirty shirt and tosses it somewhere.
He cares less to other people. He treated Amber as his fling, when he found out that Amber was not the same Amber he knew before.
He didn't pursue her. Knowing Amber who became clingy, bitch and a fame whore at the same time. Everybody knows that she is like that.
"Hey dude are you with me?" Tanong ni Gelo sa kanya na siyang nagpabalik sa kanyang ulirat.
"Three months na kami ni Amber," Edward stated as a matter of factly. Even though Amber changed, Edward thinks she is still his Amber. His sweet Amber.
Hindi niya rin alam kung bakit matagal na ang pakikipag fling niya kay Amber. Sa ngayon, hindi pa siya sigurado ulit sa nararamdaman niya.
Minsan na ring sumagi sa isip niya kung sakaling manunumbalik ang pagmamahal niya dito, well, hindi siya sigurado doon. Deep inside, he's hoping, still hoping na sana bumalik ang kababata niya, 'yong kababatang kanyang nagustuhan.
"Sa pagkakaalam ko, less than a week ka nagpapalit ng babae mo, anyare?" panunudyo ni Gelo sa kaibigan saka tinignan na may halong pagtataka sa ekspresyon nito.
"Bakit, ano ba ako ngayon?" Balik na tanong ni Edward sa kaibigan.
"Ang alam ko, nagkaka-fling ka lang naman kung wala si Amber sa tabi mo, alam mo naman kung ano ang ginagawa nu'n sa mga nangfi-flirt sa 'yong ibang babae hindi ba? Hmm, hindi kaya... there is something going on to the both of you?"
Natigilan ng ilang sandali si Eward at pawang napaisip.
"Yeah there is, LUST!" sagot ni Edward tsaka naglakad na ng mabilis na hindi man lang tinapunan ng tingin ang kaibigan.
"Owh, hey wait!" Natatawang humabol na lamang si Gelo rito.
"Hey Edward, watch out!" Sigaw ni Gelo ngunit huli na ang lahat dahil may nakabungguan na si Edward.
"What the hell!" Sigaw niya sa nakabanggaan.
"I-im sorry," munting naisatinig ng babaeng maiyain. Saka bumangon sa pagkakatumba at pinulot ang mga gamit nitong nagkalat sa saig.
"Sorry your face! Hindi mo ba ako kilala ha?"
Sigaw niya sa babae. Inayos muna ng babae ang kanyang salamin sa mata bago inusisa ang mukha ng lalakeng kaarap.
Hindi niya ito kilala kaya yumuko na lamang siya nang makitang galit na galit ito.
"H-hindi po, paumanhin nakayuko po kasi ako e. K-kaya hindi ko po kayo napansin,"
Parang nabingi naman si Edward du'n sa kanyang narinig. How could someone didn't recognize him? He is popular and the richest guy in this school and the probability of anyone who doesn't know him is 0.001%. And that's a fact. Truth be told.
"I know what you're thinking dude," Gelo tapped his shoulder habang napapailing na wari'y dinadamayan siya sa pagkakaapak ng kanyang pride.
Siya naman ay parang mas nainis kaya sinigawan niyang muli ang dalagang kaharap.
"Next time, try to make your eyes wide as hell so that you fvcking see your way out of me! And also, try to fvcking know who is Edward Shawn, you stupid ugly nerd!"
Pagkatapos sabihin ni Edward ang salitang 'yun ay dumiretso na siya sa paglalakad paalis. Hindi na niya inabala pang tignan ang ngayon ay lumuluhang dalaga habang pinupulot ang wasak nitong project na pinaghirapan pa niyang ginawa ng isang buong linggo para ipasa ngayong araw.
"Gago ka talaga pre! Ikaw naman 'yong bumangga sa kanya kasi tuliro ka!"
Hindi na lamang umimik si Edward kay Gelo dahil alam niyang busted siya, kahit aminado siyang, siya nga ang nakabunggo doon sa babae dahil sa pagiging ukupado ng kanyang isipan tungkol kay Amber at sa kung anong meron sa kanila.
Pagkapasok nila sa silid aralan ay halos mabingi na naman ang tenga ni Edward sa mga sigawan ng mga babae at binabae sa kanyang classroom, o madadaanan sa hallway.
Ganito makapag react ang mga ito dahil paminsan-minsan lang naman nila nasisilayan ang kagwapuhan ni Edward dahil kung hindi ito absent ay parati namang nag cu-cutting classes, minsan naman pag present ay sa court lang parating tumatambay. Kapag nasa classroom naman ay natutulog lamang o kaya nang-iinis sa guro.
Pumuwesto na siya sa kanyang upuan, well maghihintay lang ng treinta minutos pagkatapos ay out na siya. Maya-maya lang ay kinalabit niya na si Gelo na nasa harapan niya nakaupo.
"You know what to do."
Saad ni Edward, umirap na lamang si Gelo dahil kagaya ng nakagawian, siya na naman ang gagawa ng palusot para pagtakpan ang animo'y cutting classes king na si Edward Shawn.
To be continued...
