No More Ignorance (BOOK 2)

Chapter 58

ELISA

Walang ginawa si Dominic na alam niyang ika-gagalit ko. He was quiet but obviously did not like Julian's presence. I knew he was jealous. But he doesn't have to worry because Julian is also like Alex. Alam kong pansin niya na iyon dahil habang kasama namin siya, nagkasundo agad si Alex at Julian. I know how observant he is.

"That Schweizer is gay. Am I right?" Dominic asked me for an nth time after we got inside my car.

I fastened my seatbelt first before I answer him.

Sa totoo lang, kanina pa siya tanong ng tanong sakin at malapit na kong marindi.

"Yes. So stop asking."

I looked at our son who is already asleep in the backseat. Napagod kakalaro at kaka-ikot kanina. It's already 9 PM and we're heading home. I've been busy all day. Dominic helped me to finish my undone paper works. While Alex is still on his training with Kara so we haven't able to talk for long. He can start next week. About Julian, he's planning to take Alex as a brand photographer because he discovered Alex's capability in photography. Alex showed Julian all his shots on his Instagram account. And Julian liked all of them.

"Alright. He's very manly to look at. But based on my observation earlier and your confirmation, I knew it. Don't worry, I'll respect him the way I respect Alex."

I hid my smile.

Glad to hear that.

He already started driving. I leaned on the headrest and closed my eyes.

I'm sleepy.

"He's great Dominic. Don't hate him. "

"I don't hate him. I'm jealous."

I opened my eyes and looked at him.

"Why? Because he has blue eyes?" Pang-aasar ko.

I saw the tightness of his grip on the steering wheel so I grinned in victory. I knew him well.

"I don't care if he has blue eyes. He doesn't have a p*ssy anyway." He smirked.

His answer made me gasp in disbelief.

WHAT?!

The next morning, I woke up early because it's my rest day. I have more time now with my son. Great timing because he has no class today.

I look at my watch. I am prepping up because the two were about to wake up.

Naaalala ko na naman bigla ang sinabi ni Dominic tungkol kay Julian. Nakaka-inis talaga siya! Kung ano-ano na lang ang nasasabi kapag nagagalit. Nakalimutan niya agad ang respeto na sinabi niya! Walang filter ang bibig niya minsan. Kung may ugali man siyang hindi nagbago, iyon ay ang pagiging bastos niya minsan.

"Good morning." Speaking of!

I breathed in the strong scent coming from him.

"Your perfume is too strong. May lakad ka ba?" Tanong ko sa kanya. Tiningnan ko kung ano ang magiging reaksyon niya. Kung maiinis ba siya sa tanong ko o ano. Pero ng makita kong nasa good mood siya, hindi na ko nagsalita pa.

I felt him walk towards my direction and he leaned against the refrigerator and watch my every move.

"I just noticed." He spoke and I looked at him. Ano na naman kaya 'yon?

"Marco hasn't visited you yet. Is he still alive?" I stopped and glared at him.

He's right. I've never seen Marco again after what happened between the three of us. I should ask him and say sorry at least.

"Why? Do you miss knocking him out?" I asked sarcastically.

But it seems that he's not offended by my question.

"Kinda. But no, I won't punch him again. I'm sorry, okay? But still, I can't change the fact that he's my rival."

I ignored him and pay my attention to what I was doing instead. Baka kung saan pa mapunta ang usapan namin at masira na naman ang mood ko. Rest day ko pa naman ngayon at ayokong maging stress day!

"Sorry." He said.

"Just please, don't hurt him again. Ako na ang nagmamakaawa sayo." Sabi ko sa kanya.

Pilit na ngiti lang ang sinagot niya sakin.

"I love watching you." I heard him say.

Hindi ko siya pinansin at hinayaan lang siyang magsalita ng magsalita. Pero ang makulit, panay sunod sakin kahit saan ako magpunta! Hindi ko alam kung matutuwa ba ko maiinis sa pagsunod niya sakin. Namana ni Eric ang kakulitan niya.

I was about to go to my room when he blocked me. I inhaled again his strong scent.

"Je t'aime." He said.

My heart beats fast after he said those words. Speaking in French does suit him well, oh my god.

This is getting out of control.

"Dominic—"

"I love you." He repeated.

"Okay." Sagot ko at nilagpasan siya pero bago pa man ako makaalis ay nayakap niya na ko.

"I'm sorry for offending you today and your Julian yesterday. I won't do that again."

Wow? Is this true? He's saying sorry?

"You should. Baka tuluyan na 'kong mainis sayo at hindi na kita—" Napatigil ako ng mapansin kong iba na ang lumalabas sa bibig ko.

"Hindi na?" Tanong niya.

"Never mind." I took off his embrace and face him. "I think Eric is still asleep. Why don't you help me to cook for him?" He looked surprised because he didn't respond right away.

He just stared at me first.

"Sure, baby. Let's go." And I startled when he carried me before we go to the kitchen.
