going out with Yñigo

Chapter Eleven

"You never fail to amaze me. Every day there is something new that makes me love you even more than the day before. " -Yñigo

Yñigo watched habang palapit si Mariz. "Yñigo what brings you here?" tanong nito sa kanya.

He was so furious he wanted to wring her pretty neck. This is the first time that he had beaten Mariz in any battle, competition or whatever pero imbis na matuwa he wanted to beat the shit out of her.

"Are you really out of your God damn mind!!! Where did you learn to drift like that!!!," asik ni Yñigo.

Sandali namang napatanga si Mariz sa kanya. "Well hello to you too Yñigo." Ang sabi nito.

"Wag mong piliting ulitin ko ang tanong ko sayo." Yñigo said dangerously. Nakahawak ito sa balikat ng dalaga. He wanted to shook some sense in her brain.

"I enrolled in a drifting classes." Mariz answered coolly. "Congrats. You beat me."

"Isoli mo kung saan mo hiniram ang kotse mo and I'll drive you home." Yñigo commanded.

Nilingon ni Mariz ang kotse na iniwan at inginuso, "That's my car."

"Your car!! Kelan ka bumili?? Sinong kasama mong bumili??" he fired his questions.

"Dexter accompanied me to his dealer...."Mariz started saying but Yñigo's head had shot up from hearing the name.

"Dexter! Bakit siya?? Why didn't you called me para samahan ka."

Mariz was having a hard time answering him. Mariz really missed him pero bakit sa halip na matuwa ito ng makita siya eh nagagalit pa ito?

"I called you many times. Sa Phone mo. Sa office mo. Kung hindi lagi kang nasa meeting, you'll hang up." Mariz said bitterly. Kasi may iba kang pinagkakaabalahan! Mariz wanted to shout back at him.

"Kailan? Kailan kita binabaan ng phone??!! I was always up till night waiting for your text or call!!"

Was he really? Gustong maniwala ni Mariz. "Nagtext ako sayo sabi ko magbabago ako ng number" paliwanag niya.

Natigilan si Yñigo. Si Mariz nagpalit ng number??? He had been receiving a lot of unidentified calls lately from his phone. Hindi niya sinasagot dahil nung minsang magkamali siyang sagutin, si Katie pala yun.

"Wala akong nakukuhang message mo." Sabi ni Yñigo.

"I assume busy ka kaya hindi na ako nanggugulo sayo," alanganing sabi ni Mariz. By now mahina na ang usapan nila. Tapos na ang galit. "Hindi kita tinetext pero that doesn't mean I don't miss you." Sabi ni Mariz.

His heart melted. He hugged her tightly. "Not half as I missed you!"

Mariz was dying to kiss him pero she's too shy to ask. Nakuntento na lang siyang yakap ito.

"Yñigo, can we start dating?? I mean can we go out? Ibig kong sabhihin pwede mo ba akong turuan makipagdate??" sunod sunod na tanong niya.

Napatigil naman si Yñigo. May pilyong ngiting sumilay sa labi nito.

"Gusto mong turuan kitang magdate?? Why is there someone in your office asking you out??" Yñigo was thinking na nagpapalusot lang si Mariz. Gaya nung nagtanong ito if friends can kiss. He just wants my company, Yñigo thought but he felt happy still the same.

"Meron naman. Konti. So would you teach me??" tanong ni Mariz.

"I'll be glad to teach you."
