THE WILD'S DEEPEST AFFECTION (BURNING LOVE SERIES 1)

𝘾𝙃𝘼𝙋𝙏𝙀𝙍 16

RED YVONNA'S POINT OF VIEW

"Hey, cutie~" I cooed while carrying Linlo, the cute cat. I made her sit down in my lap while playing with her. Nakaupo ako sa front seat ng kotse ko.

She's so cute. Lyllo told me she just adopted Linlo, pero feeling ko ay hindi because Linlo's so beautiful to be a street kitten. Puti siya at palaging malinis, hindi rin siya wild. She's always calm and jolly, she's one of the reason why I don't want to leave here in Lyllo's house.

It feels so aesthetic, her house is pretty and simple. Ang mga gamit niya sa loob ng bahay ay sobrang cute din. My bestfriend's definitely obsessed with cats. Halos lahat kasi ng designs ng gamit rito sa loob ng house ay pusa. She like cats.

'Pag pasok ko sa bahay ay nag hubad ako ng aking jacket at ni- lock agad ang pinto. Sinalubong kasi ako ni Linlo kanina sa labas pa lang. She's that sweet.

Nag plan ako na mag- groceries since may pupuntahan rin naman ako. Pupunta ako sa office ni Mom at Dad mamayang tanghali para ipasa ang files na pinapagawa nila sa'kin. Hopefully, by the end of this month, they'll give me a project. Hihihi.

Pumasok ako sa guest room at nagbihis ulit ng pambahay. Mamaya pa naman ako aalis kaya siguro magwo- work nalang ulit ako at magsa- sound trip.

I was typing on my laptop when my phone rang beside me. Naka- upo lang ako sa kama at naka sandal sa head board, kahahatid ko lang rin kasi kay Lyllo. I am still editing my files so that I can submit this immediately.

"Hello?" I answered the phone without looking on the caller's name.

"Hey, Red." A familiar voice talked. I almost jump out of my bed when I heard his baritone voice again.

Napabangon tuloy ako mula sa aking kinasasandalan. "How did you get my number?!!"

"Easy, Yvonn."

"You shut up! I'm not joking around, pa'no mo nakuha ang number ko?!" Naiinis ko'ng tanong.

I heard him chuckled before answering me, "I have connections. Where are you?"

Kumuyom ang aking kamao at parang gusto ko'ng manuntok ng tao. At siya 'yon! Ang kausap ko mismo ang gusto ko'ng suntukin! Nanginig ang kalamnan ko sa aking iniisip. I swear I'm gonna blow up if he tells me he's here in Philippines.

"I'm not gonna tell you where am I..." Pabulong ko'ng sabi.

"Oh, you won't like the result, Yvonn."

"Don't call me that!" Sigaw ko. I gritted my teeth from irritation. "Stop b*llshitting me!"

Narinig ko siyang tumawa sa kabilang linya pero nagsisimula na akong mainis sa kaniya. Before I left to California, I changed my freaking number because I know he'll bug me again once I come back here in Philippines! How come he's got my new number! Pati nga ang cellphone ko na ginagamit sa California ay tinapon ko na, my phone's new! Pa'nong nakatawag pa rin ang kolokoy na 'to?! Damn it!

Nagpupuyos ako sa galit. I stood up and looked at my self in front of the damn mirror. My eyes are red and it's going to cry. Oh, no, no... Not again! No! No!!!!! Fucking no!!

"Narito ako sa Pilipinas. Bet you're in Philippines, too."

Hindi ako sumagot. Kumabog ang aking dibdib sa kaba dahil mukhang alam niya nga talaga na naka- uwi na 'ko. Tumibok ng mabilis ang aking puso at kinagat ko ang aking labi.
