 Chapter 22

Tanya

My head is getting heavier. Nawawala na ang effect ng paracetamol. I shook my head. We are on our way to Drew’s office. Iniwan na ni Drew si Nica sa condo dahil hindi pa daw sya tapos sa CR. hehehe.. Serves her right. Sa tingin  ko hanggnag bukas pa kukulo kulo ang tyan non, mukhang maraming toxins sa katawan. I hope she learns her lesson, and that is, not to eat anything that came from your mortal enemy.

“Tanya, are you ok?” Tanong ni Andrew.

“Yeah… I’m fine.“

Silence

“About Nica--”

I cut him off.

“Look Drew. You don’t need to explain to me. I’m not your girlfriend or your mother. Whatever you do in your life is none of my business. I know you’re a player and it’s your lifestyle. So what? Kahit mag tayo ka ng harem sa penthouse mo. It’s fine. IT’S NONE OF MY BUSINESS. Hindi ako makikiaalam sa trip mo. Buhay mo yan, walang kinalaman sa akin. And besides, sabi mo nga, ang goal mo ngayon ay makahanap ng Bride. For all I know, baka naman si Nica na yon. Goodluck nga lang.“

Poker face. Pero deep inside, I really don’t feel good. Bakit parang masakit?

I just concentrated on driving para hindi nya mabasa ang mukha ko. But I can feel that he’s looking at me closely.

“Just the same. I want you to know that nothing happened between the two of us. She slept at the guestroom.“

Silence..

“Know what. I don’t want to play anymore. I’m done with my so-called lifestyle. There comes a time when you realize things. May mga bagay na dapat pinatutuunan ko ng pansin and sometimes you don’t know that what you’ve been looking for is just right under your nose.“

Anong pinagsasasabi nito? Why is he talking in riddles? Hindi na lang ako diretsahin at sabihin point blank kung anong tinutukoy nya.

Sumulyap ako sa kanya. Hindi pala sya nakatingin sa akin. He was just looking ahead, lost in his thoughts, parang nakatingin sa kawalan. Kinakausap ba nya ko or he was just thinking aloud? Delikado, may pagka baliw din ata ito. But the tone of his voice tells me that he’s serious. Hindi ko pa sya nakitang ganyan.

“Don’t talk in riddles.” I said

“I’ll let you know…. Soon. “ Then he looked at me and smiled and my heart skipped a beat.

WHAT THE?!

Ano na naman yun????!!!!!

I concentrated on the road again. Gosh! Baka mabangga kami. Kuns sakili, first time in history mangyari sa kin yon!

Sobra akong na-distract sa smile ni Andrew. Iyon ba ang killer charm nya? Effective! Kaya pala ang daming nabibiktimang babae nito. I felt the flutters in my stomach, katulad ng naramdaman ko sa kanya dati noong una ko pa lang syang nakilala. Eto na naman. Bakit ko na naman nararamdaman to! AAAARRRRGGGGGGG!!!! I got over this before. I have to get rid of this fast bago pa lumala at hindi ko na mapigilan ang namumuong damdamin na to.

We reached his building.

“Wag mo na akong ibaba sa entrance. Go straight to the parking lot. Sabay na tayong umakyat.”

I looked at him teasingly.

“O.. akala ko ba sa driver’s lounge ako tatambay?”

“Don’t start… “
