"Bro! Gotta go, tinawagan ako ni Liam e! Sunod ka nalang daw, sinabi ko kasi nandito kaniig mo."

"What?!" I exclaimed. Kaniig? Yuck!

"Oh yeah, sorry Cara I was really going to talk to you but something came up with Liam, kayo nalang siguro ni Draven ang mag-usap, have fun vibin' in the kitchen." he said with a grin on his face, and waved us a goodbye sabay labas ng suite ni Thanatos.

After saying those words and leaving us, ay agad kong kinuha ang phone ko, feeling the awkward presence between us two. Gustong gusto ko magsalita kaso baka barahin pa ako nito, attitude pa naman ito. Bakit kasi walang magsasalita? Mga pipi ba kami? Ayaw nya ring unahan. Tsk, I dislike boys like this.

"Bakit ayaw mong magsali-"

"So you do arts?" he cutted me off.

"Uh.. yeah. Bakit?" 

"Wala lang naman. I once dream to become a artist but, Draven and Arts really won't come along." he said then cutely chuckled. So he once tried drawing? 

"Why? What was the result in process ba?" 

"Failed. It was when I was a child, I tried drawing a robot and I imagined it'd be a good one though kaso it turns out to be robot but a malfunctioned one." sambit niya and I saw how his face resembles embarrasment, I bursted out laughing, cutie.

"It goes with a trial and error though, so that really is okay." I tried cheering him up, while still laughing.

"Trial and error? You mean try and try and di-"

"Never give up, asshole!" I cutted him off, which made him chuckled.

"So which means if I pursue and I never give up, I can have it?" 

"Have what?" na agad ikakunot ng noo ko.

"The thing I really wanted."

"Bakit? Ano ba ang gusto mo?" I innocently asked, and patiently waited for him to answer.

"Pagmamahal" he sighed.

"Pagmamahal nino?" I asked, curiousity in my eyes.

"Why do you ask? Curious ka? O gusto mo lang maki-chika?" then he chuckled.

"I was just curious you dumb fuck, I don't even care about your lovelife."

"But you were now"

"No, I wasn't"

"E bakit ka nagtanong? Curiosity? Pareho parin naman yun ah? It's all for the perks of knowing" mahabang pagsasalaysay nito.

"Whatever" I rolled my eyes.

"Ang sungit mo din 'e but I don't care if you meddled with my life or what"

"Tapos?"

"Yun lang. Tapos!"

I rolled my eyes at agad inilayo ang tingin sa kaniya, but I still saw in the corner of my eye na kinuha nito ang cellphone galing sa bulsa nito at may tinipa na message.

A message for his girlfriend? I guess?

"Sa lahat ng hindi ko gusto ay yung kinakausap pa yung tao pero nasa iba naman ang atensyon",pagpaparinig ko sa kaniya. "Edi sana all may kabiyak!" sambit ko na agad namang ikakunot ng noo niya.

"Kabiyak?" tanong niyo sakin habang nakakunot parin ang noo nito. "You mean girlfriend?"

"Halata naman siguro 'no?" pagpipilosopo ko sa kaniya.
