Chapter 3
I stared at the girl who just came into my room. She's holding a brown paper bag in her hand and her smiles made me feel weird. If I could just yell at her and put her straight out of my room, ginawa ko na but she seemed too nice and she might get offended if I did that.
I guess being pretty lessens the annoyance in me. Good job, girl. You clearly caught my attention. Beauty attracts everything, 'no? Maybe that's the reason kung bakit medyo bumaba ang inis ko sa kanya.
And she also brought something for me, or maybe not, but that's not that issue here.
And then, there she was talking to me like a normal person. Hindi ako makagalaw sa higaan ko dahil naka-boxers lang ako at ayokong makita niya ako sa ganitong hitsura? Or maybe she does want it, too? I like it!
And she kept on talking. I looked for my hearing device and I had to reach out inside the bedside table. Napansin kong tumigil siya sa pagsasalita ng panoorin niya akong may inaabot. She immediately came closer to my direction but then I felt my face getting hotter. Nang maabot ko sa upper drawer ang hearing device, agad kong binuksan at sinuksok sa tainga ko.
That's the moment she realized that I'm not hearing anything she said.
"I'm sorry," I spoke, not clear but enough to communicate.
She giggled, "I'm very sorry," she said and motioned her hand over her chest for a couple of times. That says sorry in sign language. I'm pumped that she knows how to do it though.
"How did you know how to do sign language?" I signed, and she paused for a minute and laughed.
"I know a few but I actually don't know a lot," she spoke and I nodded. I'm still having weird feelings about this. Hindi niya ba alam na halos nakahubo na ako sa ilalim na comforter? Or she just wanted to jump and make a little sesh? That would be totally fucking cool. Apart from the girls I've ever messaged online, this is the real deal.
"One second," I told her and wrapped the comforter around myself as I stood up from the bed. I made her turn around so I quickly ran towards the bathroom and wore something else. I grabbed some shorts and walked out of the bathroom still shirtless but that's fine. She might like the view though.
"Hey, I'm sorry for barging in earlier. I thought you heard me knocking but, uh... I'm sorry about that," napangiwi siya at hindi na niya sigurado kung maitatawid pa niya ang sasabihin niya.
I took my phone and composed my questions and showed it to her face.
What are you here for? And mind if I ask who are you?
"No, please, I don't mind." She chuckled, she's cute. Her cheeks blushed a little, or I did that to her because I'm shirtless?
I deleted the message and waited for her response.
