How to Chase the Love i had before (Book 2)

Chapter 48: Zambales Escapade (Arrival 1)

(A/N: I have to change the title para di nakakalito. May part 2 kasi to and on the 3 days of their stay sa Zambales, hahati-hatiin ko into chapters para hindi masyadong mahaba kada-isang chapter. So bale, 2 or 3 chaps each day of their Zambales stay. Gets? Okay! Ciao 😘)

~Thomas' POV

"Archers and Spikers! Prepare! Malapit na tayo, gisingin na ang mga tulog!" Sigaw ni Coach Aldin. Kanya-kanya namang nag-inat ang mga teammates ko pati na rin ang mga spikers na kakagaling lang din sa tulog.

Hindi naman masyadong mahaba ang binyahe namin, kaya hindi ako nakatulog. Sa halip, binantayan ko na lang si Ara who's sleeping soundly at my side. Naghihilik sya but it's not too loud naman. I find it cute tho. Ano pa bang bago? Eh halos lahat kay Ara, cute sa paningin ko diba?

"Baby, wake up. We're almost here" I whispered against her ears. Gumalaw lang sya ng kunti pero bumalik rin sa mahimbing nyang tulog.

"Baby, maiiwan ka talaga dito sa bus" I said once again. This time, niyugyog ko na sya ng kunti.

"Di mo naman ako iiwan diba?" She mumbled yet her eyes are still close. Could she get any cuter?

"Yes of course, hindi kita iiwan" I replied and pinanggigilan ko ang pisngi nya. Napapansin kong her cheeks are not that mataba na compared before. Nangangayayat na ata ang Ara ko.

"Hindi ka ba hiyang sa akin?" I asked, pouting.

"Anong klaseng tanong yan?" She said. This time binuksan na nya ang mga mata nya saka tingingnan ako ng masama.

"Cause you're getting skinnier na. Sabi kasi nila na kapag hindi daw hiyang sa boyfriend ang isang person, they tend to get skinny. I hope it isn't true" Kumunot lalo ang noo nya sa sinabi ko.

"OA mo! Asan mo naman napulot ang theory na yan, Aber?" She asked arching her perfectly shaped brows. Yeah I have to describe her brows, cause she looks hot whenever she raises it.

"From my parents. Yun kaya yung sinabi nila one time when Kuya Axel brought a girl sa house. then on the next month nangayayat yung girl. They told kuya Axel that maybe he's not doing good daw" I explained.

"Grabe! Di ba pwedeng nag-diet lang yung girl kasi nahiya sya sa abs ng kuya mong masyadong shaped at firm?" She said. It's my turn to arch a brow this time.

"Abs? Ng kuya ko? Shaped at firm? How'd you know na may abs sya? Aber?" I asked. I hope I didn't sound jealous. But whatever, Ayaw ko lang talaga na may ina-appreciate si Ara na ibang lalake. I just hate it, Lalo na kapag nagsisimula na syang mag-compliment sa body figure nito. It's one of my insecurities kasi. Since medyo hindi pa matibay tingnan ang abs ko. Knowing Ara, she loves abs kahit hindi pa nya aminin sa akin.

"Panong hindi malalaman eh naghuhubad yang kuya mo sa PBB noon! Nanonood kaya ako! Wag kang leche!" Sabi naman nya. I doubt it tho.

"Why are you watching that show?" Tanong ko ulit sa kanya.

"At bakit ako hindi titingin? Eh may mga mata ako tsaka may TV at Kuryente kami sa dorm! Sayang naman kung hindi mapapakinabangan" She answered sarcastically.

"You sure you're not eyeing someone doon sa PBB?" I asked again.

"Gago! Kuntento ako sayo!" Sabi pa nya. I giggled with what she said. It sounds sweet kahit na napakalutong nung mura nya sa akin at first.

"Eh ba't mo ba natatanong sa akin yan?" She asked me.

"Wala lang. I thought attracted ka kay Kuya Axel. Judging from the way you compliment his abs" I answered. Bigla naman syang tumawa ng malakas.
