Sweetest Revenge (on Going)

1: unbidden thought

Nasa isang madilim na sulok ako ng isang bar, like the usual, I'm isolating my self, hiding from the judgemental eyes of the people around me, and for the nth times since i landed here another man approaches me,

"you look familiar"

What a chiché, i thought.

Tiningnan ko mula ulo hanggang paa ang lalaking lumapit sakin,

Well not bad, he is tall and very manly with tan complexion and brooding eyes, yun nga lang he is no match to my ex Arnold na mestizo at talaga namang artistahin

"I'm Einstein"
He said and extended his hand for curtsy.
Tinaggap ko to, i don't know , maybe because of the alcohol's kick.

"Leanna" I said and i gave him a crooked smile.

Ayoko na ding humaba pa ang usapan namin, I'm not interested, although he looked sizzling handsome but i wasn"t attracted enough to make me want to prolong our conversation. .

The man who I want is now on someone else's arms, probably he's having a good fuck right at this very moment...

Urgggg that unbidden though made me shiver and Agitated, disgusting! Sure kayang kaya niyang gawin un. Siya pa ba..

To divert my thought, i trued to play with this seemingly genius man. Naisip ko na kung kaya ni arnold, siguro naman kaya ko rin.

"you are quite taciturn Leanna" he stated and chuckled

I slightly giggled, like there's an inside joke with his word. Mukang tinatamaan na talaga ko ng absolut na iniinom ko.

"there is no single taciturn bone in me mr. Genius"

Tuluyan na nga akong natawa. Hindi ko lang naisip na may isang taong mag iisip na tahimik ako at hindi mahilig mag salita, while in fact i am outspoken and very loud, well maybe not in this moment nga siguro..

"really Leanna, but I have watched you from a far and i noticed that you've consistently ignored seven tenacious men in just an hour"

nakuha ng katabi ang atensyon ko,, he's a keen observant, tama siya ever since i came here ilang lalaki na nga ang nag tangka na makipag usap sakin, but because i wasn't interested, i just ignored them.

"talaga? Di ko napansin"
Palusot ko nalang ,. At sumimsim ulit ng alak sa shot glass ko, naisip ko na di na rin naman masama, this man beside me is hot!

"if you are not taciturn, then maybe you just a plain snob, huh" he said playfully

I took a second glance at him and this time i got a glimpse of his necklace, it's the same necklace I bought for Arnold,

It was afternoon that day when i decided to go to Arnold's plot. We've been together for 3 blissful years, we have traveled together , we watched movies together.. We do almost every stuff that usual boyfriend girlfriend did, except for Sex.

He's into it, but i'm not yet ready for that. Like other couple we did fight ,ours was usually because of me not wanting to commit premarital sex.
