The Lies Between Us (Lie Series #1)

TLBU #6

"Elli, can you be may partner in our Philo research?" Nag angat ako ng tingin sa kaklase kong si Max. I saw his sincere smile and hopeful eyes.

"Hmmm." I looked at Maia and found her talking to Jareld about the research. I think they already agreed to be partners. "Okay."

"So..." Napabaling ang paningin ko sa pintuan, kakapasok lang ni Levi. Absent sya sa Philo class namin kanina. "after class, we can go to the library to look for our research materials."

"Sige."

Bumalik na si Max sa upuan niya at binalik ko na lang ang paningin ko sa aking cellphone. I am currently browsing the new lingerie collections of my favorite brand.

"What did I miss?" Levi asked, as soon as he sat beside me.

"They're pairing up for Philo research." Sagot ko habang nakatingin pa din sa cellphone ko.

"Ah.. Do you already have a partner?"

Tumango lang ako ng hindi pa rin siya tinitignan.

"Hi Levi!" Pucha! boses pa lang nakakabasag na ng eardrums.

"Hi Maddie."

"Thank God that I saw you today, kanina pa kita hinahanap sa Philo class natin. I still don't have a partner in the research, so.. I was thinking if you can be my partner?"

I rolled my eyes. Go girl! The moves ka din!

I felt Levi looked at me but I still busy myself looking for a lingerie in my phone.

"Ah. Okay."

"Good!" Maddie giggled. "By the way, can I have your number? So we can communicate about the research."

"Wow! Diskarte din si ate ghorl!" I murmured silently but looks like the devil beside me heard what I said. Sige tumawa ka lang. Pag untugin ko pa kayo e.

"Okay. Give me your phone."

I rolled my eyes again. Bahala kayo dyan, basta ako nakakita na ko ng gusto kong lingerie.

I click the photo of the lingerie that I wanted and input the details like the color I want, the size of my bra, payment details and delivery address.

"Nice, cup B." Napasinghap ako sa narinig ko at tinignan siya ng masama.

"Pervert."

"Actually not. Have you forgotten again that I already seen those and also..." His eyes went down to my boobs. I hate his mischievous smile. Sarap sakalin. "touched it."

"Ha. Ha." I mocked him. "Don't also forget that you're not the only one who saw and touched it."

I saw his jaw clenched. From being mischievous, he looks like someone ready to kill those men I flirted with.

I smirked at him and leave him.

Hindi ako papatalo sa isang Levi lang. I'll make sure that I have the last laugh.

I decided to go to the cafeteria and buy some fruit shake.

"Elli." I turned around and saw the so good looking Marcus Fontanilla.

"Hey! Marcus."

"You don't have class?" He went beside me. I face him as I waited for my fruit shake.

"Philo class but maaga nag dismissed kasi may research na pinagawa."

He nodded and ordered fresh juice. We sat at the vacant table near us.

"Ikaw wala kang klase?" I asked him and sipped on my fruit shake.

"Basketball practice lang today. We have 30 minutes break."
