Chapter 8

Jealous

After watching movie, he drove me home. Inihatid lang ako ni Daddy kanina kaya wala akong dalang sasakyan. Jace is fun to be with. Mapagbiro siya at magaan kasama.

"So? May next ulit?" He chuckled while I was unbuckling my seatbelt.

Hindi ko na siya pinababa dahil nakakahiya naman. I can open my door. Isa pa, nasa parking space sa harap ng bahay ang sasakyan ni Syval. Surely, he's inside.

"It's fine with me. I enjoyed talking to you, Jace." I genuinely smile to him.

He nodded. "Well, I do too. Next time aayain kitang magfishing sa dagat!"

I laughed at his suggestion. Kanina kasi ay napag-usapan namin ang mga bagay na hindi ko pa nasubukang gawin kahit kailan. He wanted me to try it with him. Fishing is one of it.

"Maiinipin ako pero mukhang hindi naman ako aantukin kapag nagdadaldal ka." I jokingly laughed.

Bahagya ko ng binuksan ang pinto sa aking side.

"I'll text you when I am free. Mangisda tayo." I assured.

Okay lang naman sa akin. Maybe it can be my new start. Minsan nalang ako magkaroon ng bagong kaibigan kaya susulitin ko na.

He waived and beeped twice before accelerating away.

Humarap na ako sa bahay at maglalakad na sana kaso pagharap ko palang ay nakita ko ng nakatayo si Syval sa aming gate. Nakasandal siya doon at masama ang tingin sa akin.

I mentally cursed. He saw us, probably.

Then I suddenly remembered him dating Harlyn instead of doing what he said. Tsk. Such a liar!

"Did I not tell you not to date any other guy?" He asked dangerously.

Kinakabahan ako. Pinilit kong palakasin ang loob at harapin siya. Walang mangyayari kung siya nalang palagi ang masusunod. If he'll date, I'll date too. Wala kaming relasyon at magkaibigan lang kaya wala namang masama na makipagkilala ako kung kanino ko gusto.

"It's Jace. Mom and Dad wants me to meet him." Dumiretso ako at lalagpasan na sana siya.

He pulled my arm and placed me in front of him. His eyes are darkening while his jaw is clenching. Veins on the side of his head are showing because of anger.

This side of him would always be my fear. Hindi ko maipagkakailang hindi ko siya kayang suwayin kapag nagsimula na ang hagupit niya.

"Wala akong pakialam kung ano siya sa mga magulang mo. You disobeyed your boyfriend." He said in anger voice.

I sighed. Hinila ko ang kamay ko para alisin sa hawak niya.

"You are not my boyfriend." Marahan kong saad para mas maintindihan niya.

"Who said?!" He hissed.

Napapiksi ako sa pagtaas ng boses niya.

"Kung itatanggi mo pa ako ng isang beses, pupunta na ako sa loob ng bahay niyo. I will tell your parents about our relationship." He threatened.

Nagtiim bagang ako. Humalukipkip sa kanya at matalim na tiningnan.

"You can't do that! Come on, Syval! Pareho nating alam na hindi seryoso ang kung ano mang meron tayo! We are just fuck buddies!" I whispered shouted to him.

He didn't like what I have said. Agad niya akong sinunggaban ng isang marubdob at mapangparusang halik. I groaned when he bit my lower lip so hard to force me opening my lips. I tasted blood on my lips. I felt him taste that too. Tumigil siya at hinapit ako.
