The Luna

Chapter 3

Chapter 3.

Kinabukasan ay nagising nang maaga si Mason. Naligo siya at nag-ayos ng sarili. Pagkatapos niyang magbihis ay tumingin siya sa salamin, "She's gonna fall for me like she did as the first time I laid my eyes on her." he said and smirked at the mirror.

Inaalala niya muli ang naging reaksyon ng babae kagabi nang makita siya nito. Kung sa ibang pagkakaton siguro iyon nangyari ay maaaring pagtawanan niya ito ngunit hindi, akala niya nga ay ipagtatabuyan siya ng babae pero hindi nito ginawa.

Hindi niya alam kung bakit gan'on na lamang ang epekto sa kaniya ng dalaga gayong 'di pa naman nila isinasawaga ang unang proseso. Siguro iyon talaga ang ibig-sabihin ng mate, nakakabaliw.

Matapos niyang kumain nang agahan ay mabilis na tumungo siya sa kaniyang kotse at pinaharurot ito.

Nang makarating na si Mason sa bahay kung saan nakatira ang dalaga ay nadatnan niya itong nagwawalis sa harap ng kanilang maliit na bahay.

Mason smile out of the blue, he never smile specially when it comes to nonsense but seeing the girl who's meters far away from him, made him smile with unknown reason.

He immediately skip his thoughts and walk straightly on it's direction with a playful smile curved on his lips. He can't deny the fact of him being drowned to his mate. It was as if she was perfectly made for him.

"Hindi pa ako pormal na nagpapakilala sa'yo, I'm Mason Petrovic the owner of this whole place. Nice meeting you Dane," nang marinig ng dalaga ang mabaritonong boses na 'yon ay agad siyang tumingala at tumingin sa binata. She felt a sudden tingling sensation run through her system and while looking at the man in front of him, she can't stop herself from wondering what would this handsome creature doing here, in front of their house.

Mason is smiling widely while Dane is confused. Wala sa sariling nabitawan nito ang walis n'ya habang nanlalaki ang matang nakatingin kay Mason. Suddenly, she lost her breath, she's stunned for a second and then snapped into reality when Mason's voice caught her off guard.

"Na-star struck ka ba?" pilyong tanong ng binata at dahil doon ay biglang namula ang pisngi ng dalaga.

"Ehem, I'm Mason Petrovic. P'wedeng makipagkaibigan?"

"Dane, Dane Delos Reyes." pagpapakilala ng dalaga at tumango bilang sagot sa tanong ng binata. Pinulot ni Dane ang walis at tinuloy ang kaniyang ginagawa kanina bago dumating ang binata.

Bumuntong-hininga si Dane dahil sa mga titig na ipinupukol sa kaniya ng binata at wala sa sariling nakaramdam siya ng ilang. Involuntarily, she bite her lower lip not knowing Mason was watching her face and every movements she make.

Dane felt relief nang matapos s'yang magwalis, ngunit bumalik agad ito nang mahuling nakatingin si Mason sa kan'ya habang tinatapik ang katabing upuan ni Dane, na parang sinasabing, umupo s'ya sa tabi nito. Agad naman n'ya itong sinunod na para bang may sariling utak ang kan'yang mga paa.

"Bakit mo ginawa 'yong kagabi? Tinakot mo ako." saad ni Dane at tumingin sa binata. Mason turned his gaze on her with a playful smile plastered on his lips.

"Did I scared you? Sorry, I didn't mean it." he said gently, removing his coat, putting it on his lap. Suddenly, Dane's wild imagination come up and think about her above Mason's lap.

Her eyes widened in shock and shook her head mentally, cussing under her breath, what on earth brought her that kind of imaginations!

"Bakit ka nandito?" she asked, shrugging off the lustful idea desperately in her mind.
