❝Doon ka sa pinakalikod umupo iha. Kumapit ka ha..❞ Sabi sa akin ng drayber nang makapasok ako sa loob ng vhire. Nagtungo ako sa likod at umupo sa bakanteng upuan katabi ng matangkad na lalaki. Nakasandal ito, nakatakip sa kanyang mukha ang cap at naka crossed arms.
Nagkaroon ako ng pagkakataon na suriin siya, thinking that he's fast asleep .
❝Stop staring at me.❞ Bahagyang napaawang ang aking labi nang magsalita ito. Shit! I can say that he's an American dahil sa accent nito but how did he know that I was staring at him?
❝I can feel if somebody else is staring at me.❞ Mind reader din? Tinanggal niya ang cap na nakatakip sa kanyang mukha at umayos ng upo. Lumakas ang tahip ng aking puso nang magtagpo ang aming mga mata. I quickly looked away and faked a cough.
❝Going back to the province?❞
❝Yes and you?❞ Nilingon ko sya. Shit! Ang gwapo ng gago! Noong naghulog ata ng kagwapohan ang Diyos, sinalo nya lahat.
His eyes are crystal blue, his nose is so pointed, his jawline is finely chiseled, and his lips are damn seductive. ❝ I'm from United States of America and I come here to spend my vacation at Malapascua Island.❞
❝Ikaw lang mag-isa?❞ Napakunot ang noo nito. Naalala ko na hindi pala ito nakakaintindi ng Tagalog.
❝I mean, don't you have any colleague or a tourist guide?❞ Napahawak ako sa kaharap na upuan nang biglang kumalog ang sasakyan. Perhaps the road was pretty bumpy.
❝No, but if you wanna come with me and have some fun, I'll pay you.❞ Nagdadalawang isip ako kung sasama ba o hindi, thinking that he's just a stranger. We're strangers to each other.
❝Well, I'll go for it.❞ I smiled at him and he smiled back. Chance ko na 'tong makapunta sa Malapascua saka may bayad pa. Ang swerte ko na ata kaya tinawagan ko si mama para magpaalam dito na hindi muna ako makakauwi sa bahay.
Luckily, okay lang kay mama. Hindi nalang ako bumaba sa baranggay namin at dumiritso nalang sa Malapascua.
❝Have you been here before?❞ He asked me as we got inside Oscar's restaurant. The foods were generally mixed of Filipino and European dishes. Nakakatakam.
❝No.❞Nagulat nalang ako nang bigla niyang hapitin ang aking baywang at tinitigan ako sa mata.
❝Can you kiss me?❞
❝Ano? Ahh What?❞
❝Can you kiss me in the lips? Women here are staring at me and I don't want being stared at. Let's pretend that we are couples.❞
