Chapter 17

My heart’s beating to fast. My mind got blank in a moment. My mind can’t absorb what he just said a while ago. This is a shocking moment of my life.

"Bakit nag walk out ‘yon?"

"Aba malay ko sa pinsan niyong ubod ng sungit na ‘yon."

"Narinig niyo ba ‘yong binulong niya kay Isha?"

"Nope. He’s too close to Isha so we won’t heard him."

Narinig ko silang nag uusap habang ako ay nakatulala pa rin. My mind keeps on repeating what he just said. I’m still on the state of shock.

I’m not mad. I am jealous. I'm not mad. I am jealous. I’m not mad. I am jealous.

Parang sirang plaka at paulit ulit na rumerehistro sa utak ko ‘yon.

"Ish! What happened?"

Tumingin ako sa kanila. I sighed and massage the bridge of my nose.

"He said he’s not mad, he's jealous."

Napatakip ako sa tenga nang marinig ko ang mahinang tili nilang dalawa.

"Oh my gosh! Finally the cold boy has now a guts huh?!"  Tumawa si Ainah at hinampas pa sa balikat at sinuntok suntok si Clint.

"Babe, stop giving me your small punches. I know my cousin’s move."

I rolled my eyes on them. "Oh please stop being PDA here,"

"Single ka lang!" Neshie stick out her tounge.

"Damn you! Susundan ko na lang, makikita niyo!" I then stood up and walk.

Pero bumalik ako ulit. "Teka, eyes here couples, where can I find him?"

"Ano ka ngayon ha? Ang yabang pa tapos ‘di naman pala niya alam, puntahan mo sa parking lot, nandun lang ‘yon, nagpapalipas nang init ng ulo."


Tumaas ang right brow ni Neshie. "Saang ulo ba?"

"Oh baby, shut up." Milo laugh and cover Neshie’s mouth. Ang bastos kasi.

I thank Ainah and go down to parking lot. Mabuti na lang wala akong kasabay sa elevator. Some might think I am crazy for shouting and giggling. Bakit ba, eh sa kinikilig ako.

I’m wondering... Bakit siya nagsi-selos? To whom? I was just talking and laughing to my friends and his cousins. Nakarating ako sa baba at agad hinanap ang sasakyan niya. I saw him leaning on a black car, smoking. I go straight to him and wave. He just ignored me and put down the cigarette. He’s smoking. I don’t know that he’s a smoker pala.

"Hey!" I called him.

Suplado niya lang akong tinitigan at inirapan.

"What’s wrong?" I ask.

"You." He coldly said.

"Why me huh?"

He shook his head and lick his lower lip. He look at me with serious eyes. Hinawakan niya ako sa braso at iginiya paloob sa sasakyan niya. The inside of his car smells nice, actually it smells him. Ikinawit niya ang seatbelt at pinaharurot.
