Chapter 6

Rota-rota

Alyanna Pov

After dinner, I just took a bath and went inside my room. I talked to my two friends for a bit and now I'm lying on my bed, forcing myself to sleep.

I heard a knock on my door and Briant voice came next asking if I want to go with him.

I got up and went to the door and opened it "Where?" I asked the moment I see him

He's fresh from the shower too. I can smell his manly scent intoxicating my nose. His only wearing a simple white shirt and a khaki shorts but he looks so hot. "Sa bahay ng tropa ko. Hindi ba pinapapunta nila tayo?"

I simply swallowed because I felt my throat dry just by looking at him "I thought you don't want to go?"

"Sabi ko pagiisipan ko, wala akong sinabing ayaw ko." he said grumpily "Sasama ka ba o sasama ka?"

"What's with the choices? It's the same."

"It means wala kang choice kung hindi sumama. Ineexpect ka nila don." he scan my whole body and I feel conscious "Magpalit ka na. Hintayin kita sa baba."

Since I thought I'm just going to sleep, I wore my PJ's, this time it's a pair of long sleeve with short "What's with my PJ's?" nagtatakang tanong ko

"Wala naman. Lalabas tayo alangan iyan ang suot mo?" he asked, frowning

"What's problem with that? Is there a rule saying no one's allowed to go outside wearing only PJ's?" I asked again "I remember, none."

"Basta magpalit ka na, dami-dami mo pang sinasabi." he said angrily and just turned his back on me

Anong problema nun?
We're okay naman na kanina ah?

I shake my head and changed my clothes. I changed my PJ's into sleeveless shirt and maong shorts. I checked my face into the mirror of my wooden cabinet before leaving the room.

I saw Briant in the living room, comfortably sitting while his eyes are closed. He seems to feel my presence so he opened his eyes. He examined me from head to toe and his face darkened even more.

"Magpalit ka." sabi lang nito

"What?" naguguluhang tanong ko

"I don't want to repeat myself, just do it." he seems annoyed from something, he's jaw protruding and his teeth clenching

"What's your problem? Kanina ka pa ah?"

"Basta magpalit ka na." sigaw nito

Nanlaki ang mata ko sa gulat dahil sa pagsigaw nito.

Did he just shout on me? How dare he?

"You know what, I don't get you. Kung may problema ka sa suot ko, pwede mo kong sabihan ng maayos, hindi yung naninigaw ka. At kung galit ka sa mundo, wag mo kong idamay. Damn you." naiinis ding sigaw ko, mukhang nagulat din it "Ayoko ng umalis. Pumunta kang magisa mo."

I was about to go back in my room when he stop me. Mabilis siyang lumapit sakin at hinawakan ang isang braso ko.

"I'm sorry okay. I didn't mean to shout at you. May iniisip lang kasi ako. And as for your clothes, kung ayaw mong magpalit, sige okay na yan. Hintayin mo lang ako dito, may kukunin lang ako sa kwarto ko." bago pa man ako makasagot ay tumakbo na ito pabalik sa kwarto nito. He handed me a jacket when he came back. "Wear this. Baka lamigin ka mamaya." He gently pull me to the door and when he opened it, malamig na hangin ang sumalubong samin. "Hintayin mo ko dito, kukunin ko lang yung motor ko."
