What is love?

Chapter 49

We went home at hinatid na namin ang karamihan sa bisita doon sa hotel ni Carla pero itong si Carl sumama pa pauwi gusto daw niya I check yung progress ko doon sa sculpture. Kulang pa ata ang novena pag nakita ni Richard kung gaano ka touchy to si Carl without him even realizing it. Ito naman si Von panay pang asar saakin na lagot daw talaga ako. Ngayong pauwi si Von ang ginamit kong pang sangga kay Carl at sa gitna namin siya nakaupo. I have Richard's beaw on my lap, na eexcite na akong asarin siya.

RICHARD
Today's work load was lightened with how Dawn and I made amends sa aming away na di ko alam meron pala. I like having her near me kaya naisipan ko na pag uwi ko ay I will ask her to sleep in the same room together para naman di na ako alone and someone can warm my lonely nights. That's an extremely good idea I thought kaya nung dumating kami sa bahay I was whistling kasi I'm happy.

Nadatnan kong nasa living room si Von "oh why are you still awake?" Kasi late na ako naka uwi mga 11pm "kasi medyo kakauwi lang namin" sabi niya habang nanunuod ng palabas "what? Ganon kayo katagal sa labas?" "Oo eh, pano naman yung mga parents natin feeling tour guide" he chuckled "ahhh ganon ba, by the way where's your sister?" I said looking around "sa favorite place niya" he looked at me and had a weird smile on "okay ang weird ng ngiti mo diyan ah parang may masama kang balak" i chuckled din "you'll know why" he grinned

I was walking towards the sculpting room and I passed by a mirror so i pointed at myself and thought you're the man. I was still whistling on my way to the room and nagtataka ako bakit wala akong naririnig na music. Hmmm odd, and then as i get closer naririnig ko na parang may kausap si Dawn sa loob. Baka si tito lang isip ko nung nasa pinto na ako I was shocked to see Carl ayun nagtatawanan silang dalawa, ako lang pwede magpatawa kay Dawn ng ganyan.

I coughed and they looked at my direction, Dawn smiled and walked towards me Carl looked well ugly walang wala sa ka gwapuhan ko. "Hi" i smiled at Dawn and she pulled me towards Carl "Richard and Carl I know you haven't formlly met each other" she said and we stopped nung magkaka tapat na kami. "Richard" i offered my hand for a shake "Carl" sabi niyang seryoso mukha. We shook hands and nag hihigpitan kami ng grip,I think Dawn saw what was happening pero pinabayaan nalang kami "gabi na ah, bakit andito ka pa?" I turned to Dawn "oh kasi Carl wants to see my progress for a sculpture na i'm working on for a competition" she said

Sculpture for a competition? I know i looked confused "shocks, i forgot to tell you sinali niya ako sa isang competition" Dawn gasped and placed her hand over her mouth "okay lang you can tell me about it later" i smiled at her and caressed her arms. I can see Carl looking away and halatang naiirita "so di mo sinabi sakanya?" He pointed at me and scoffed. Aba maka point ka akala mo kung sino ka, "it's no big deal" i faced him. Feel ko their is tension in the air kaya "uwi ka na Carl" Dawn said and held his arm na sinundan ko ng tingin

"Dawn I can handle myself" mayabang niyang sabi "paano ka uuwi?" Concern na tanong niya Carl smiled and placed his face near here "pahiram nalang ako isang kotse niyo, i need some unwinding eh" he slowly looked at me. Nakita ni Dawn na naiinis na ako at medyo umambang lalapit "aba ano ka di.." "okay, Richard abot mo na key mo sakanya" mabilis na sabat ni Dawn habang humarang saamin "eto" I said and heavily placed it on his palm. "Sige i'll get going" he placed a kiss on Dawn's cheek at dahil nasa likod nga ako ni Dawn he smiled at me smugly while doing it. After that he went and left. "Ang yabang non ah" i said na naiinis "oh kalma ka lang" Dawn said rubbing my chest "ang puso mo, wag ma high blood" "bakit andito na yun?" I looked at her "well kasi close friend ni papa at mama magulang niya eh at diba sinabi ko sayo invited siya" Dawn is now putting my hands around her.
