Love You to the Internet and Back (Influencer Series #1)

02

"Alam mo?!" napasigaw ako, causing other people inside the kainan to look sa direction namin.

Bago siya nakasagot ay may lumapit na waitress carrying a tray containing two packs of burger and two plates of fries na in-order ni Keith. May kasama ring small glass jug ng juice. I can't eat all of this, I have a diet!

"Thank you," pasasalamat ni Keith sa waitress. I just smiled at her. "So, what were you saying again?"

Oh right.

"I was saying na panagutan mo'ko," I said. Damn, that didn't sound right. Before he could even speak, I continued. "I mean, what you did to me."

He smirked. "I just kissed you, there's nothing wrong with that."

Ugh, ang kapal!

"There's nothing wrong with that," I mimicked him. "You ruined my fucking reputation, Harrett!" I spat at him. As expected, lumingon na naman yung mga customers ng kainan dito sa amin. Grr! So chismosa and chismoso!

"Would you please stop shouting," Keith whispered loudly to me. I composed myself at inayos ang pagkakaupo ko. I sighed deeply before speaking again.

"All I want is for you to do something on this matter," I casually told him. "You could explain something or what?"

"Explain? Like that would change a shit? Kung 'di mo alam, people will still make shits lalo na yung mga fans ni Gianna," he mentioned his girlfriend's name like she didn't mean something to him.

That's where I remembered na nakipag break na pala si Gianna sa kaniya last night. Parang sabay nung pag post ng IG story ni Adrian about me.

"I'm sorry about Gianna, though," I told him sincerely. Nakaka guilty pero sana ganun din yung feeling niya towards me right now. Siya rin yung reason kung ba't kami naghiwalay ni Adrian.

Hiwalay, kahit wala kaming proper closure. We could have talk about it. My reasons are valid naman. Pero he chose to leave.

Sa sobrang kaba ko ay 'di ko na namalayang nakain at naubos ko na pala ang burger at fries. RIP diet.

"Yeah, I don't really care," sabi niya na parang wala lang sa kaniya. When I didn't reply at napansin niya 'yun, he spoke again. "What do you want me to do, then? Except explain though, I won't ever do that."

"Well, maybe we could try showing the people, that-that, we're into each other?" utal-utal kong sinabi sa kaniya. Sobrang nakakahiya kaya mag propose ng ganun!

Nabulunan si Keith sa iniinom niyang juice kaya parang nabalik sa baso yung juice na nasa mouth niya na. Yuck!

"You want us to do what?!" siya na yung sumisigaw ngayon sa aming dalawa. How the tables turned. I giggled.

"It's okay, we don't have to love each other," sabi ko, but his brows are still furrowed, obviously confused. "At least, kung tayo lang dalawa."

"I don't know, I-I don't know what to say," he stuttered. He's obviously uncomfortable. Kitang-kita ko sa pagtaas baba ng adam's apple niya.

"Oh c'mon! This is basically your fault! Kung 'di mo ko hinalik-halikan, edi wala sanang issue!" sigaw ko sa kaniya. It's so unfair. Siya yung nasa katinuan that time, he should have known better. Nakakagigil!
