Chapter 16

Nisha's POV

I closed my laptop after the four hour long tutoring of a student. I know I'm in a vacation but I still need to work. Kailangan ko pa ring magpadala sa parents ko and being a no-name writer doesn't get me lots of money. The reason I manage to have my dream home is that I've worked hard for years to get it. It wasn't large but it gave me peace.

I gaze at the analog clock hanging from the wall and it took me a minute to read the time.
11:04 am.
I got up and stretched, going to the bathroom to remove my "work" makeup na ginagawa ko lang everytime I need to face the web cam and tutor students. It would be too unprofessional kung humarap ako sa webcam ko na mukhang kakagising pa lang.

Two weeks na ang nakakalipas eversince I got here. Hans never bothered to check on me sabi ni Matt but Lucian was always there at my house and looking for me.
Matt told him that I went on a vacation at walang pinagsabihan kung saan pupunta.
I'm not sure kung ilang miss calls at messages ang nakuha ko yet I kept on ignoring them. Matt told me that every passing day para daw mas nababaliw si Lucian at mas nagiging desperado, even going as far as accusing Matt na kinidnap ako and hiding me from him.
Of course Matt stayed level headed about it and said na wala naman syang proweba. Lucian could do nothing about it.
Lucian didn't know who and where my parents are so I guess that he could not ask them kung asan ako.
I'm a very private person and my personal life can't be read or seen in any part of the internet, that and because I'm really not that famous.
The only part that internet could give about my information is my name, pen name, age, the books that I wrote and the country where I live along with some pictures. Kaya there is no fear of Lucian following me here.

I was about to go in the kitchen kung saan lagi si Tita ng may kumatok followed by a “Tao po!” from a familiar masculine voice.

I opened the door and saw Finn.
The past few weeks we've been hanging out as friends and I know that he respects that.
Of course being the huge flirt that he is, di sya tumitigil sa kakalandi nya but I'm used to it. I'd just roll my eyes and reply sarcastically kapag sumusumpong kalandian nya.

As soon as he saw me, his eyes widened then a smile formed his lips.
“Hello baby girl, nandyan ba ate mo?”

I snorted,
“The fuck are you talking about?”

He feigned shock.
“Nisha ikaw yan?”

“Sino pa ba?” Nakapamaywang na sabi ko.

“Ngayon lang kita nakita ng walang makeup, you look younger at ang amo pala talaga ng mukha mo.” he said and I rolled my eyes.

“Yeah sure, whatever.” I said and he shook his head.

“Totoo sinasabi ko, kapag nakatingin ka kasi ng masama sakin nun parang ready ka ng manampal eh.” he said and I glared at him and he laughed.
“Look at you, now you're as intimidating as a pomeranian.”

“You think so?” Tanong ko.

He smiled and invited himself in, saying hello to my Tita before sitting on the sofa. I sat next to him.
“Somewhat. Mukha kang masungit, I'd prefer you without it.”

I smirked,
“Thanks, but I like to look intimidating. Anyway anong ginagawa mo rito?”
I asked. Most of the time whenever pupunta sya rito so we could hang out ay magte-text muna sya o tatawag so I could get ready.

Finn somehow filled the loneliness that I feel habang hindi pa ako kinakausap ni Hans. Am I using him? Definitely not. Kapag nagkaayos na kami ni Hans, Finn would be a great addition to our group.
He's kinda like Matt, except the flirty side.
