Perfect Fake Lovers

Chapter 12

"I didn't bring extra clothes with me," I told him with my lips slightly pouted. "Nandoon sa SUV iyong spare ko. Mababasa tayo riyan for sure!"

"We don't need extra clothes!" he said and continued dragging me to the end of the line. "Doon tayo sa Space Shuttle at Anchor's Away next para magpatuyo."

His outrageous idea made me shake my head, but a smile was also tugging my lips.

"Nakakahiya naman sa 'yo," sarkastiko kong sabi. "Sana isinama mo na rin ang EKstreme Tower."

He shook his head. "You're wearing a dress. We can't ride that one."

Medyo natigilan ako roon. It slipped my mind that I was wearing a dress, but he didn't forget to consider my attire. Kaya naman wala na akong nagawa. Since I also promised that I would let him lead, I could only follow his plans.

Nang makapila kami ay hindi napigilang lumingon sa amin ng mga nasa harapan. Bigla ring humaba ang pila sa Jungle Log Jam dahil madaming gustong sumunod sa amin. Some even had the guts to ask for a picture. May mga pinaunlakan si Sic ngunit kalaunan ay may lumapit na security guards na ipinadala ng theme park upang mapigilan ang paglapit ng mga tao.

Since it was a weekday, there were less amount of people who went to the park. But since they were all hovering over us, it seemed so crowded. Mabuti na lang at mabilis napigilan ng mga security ang iba.

"Hoy! Mahiya naman kayo!"

My eyes widened when someone from the crowd shouted. Hinanap kaagad siya ng aking mga mata. Namataan kong isa siya sa mga nauna sa amin sa pila. It silenced the crowd. Only the sound from the rides could be heard.

"Pahingahin ninyo naman 'yong dalawa! Hindi naman fanmeeting ang pinunta nating lahat dito!" iritado niyang sigaw. "Mga walang respeto!"

She got death stares from some who only wanted to get closer and take a picture with us but most people were embarrassed of themselves. Nang dahil sa kanya ay unti-unti ring lumayo sa amin ang mga tao, ngunit nanatili pa rin ang tatlong security na sumaklolo sa gulo.

Dumungaw naman si Sic upang makuha ang atensyon ng babaeng tumulong sa amin. "Thank you so much for helping us," pasasalamat niya.

Blush crept on the woman's cheek when Sic gave her attention. She just nodded and smiled before looking away. Hindi niya magawang makipagtinginan nang diretso kay Sic.

It was obvious that she's also a fan, but I admired her for knowing her boundaries. She knew how to give her idol the space he needed. She respected his private life and schedule. It's really a dream come true for all fans to be like her.

Pagkatapos ng gulo ay naging mabilis lang ang pag-usad ng pila dahil hindi nga ganoon kadamihan ang mga tao. Inalalayan ako ni Sic pasakay sa log. Ako ang nasa likuran habang siya naman ang nasa harapan para hindi raw ako masyadong mabasa.

"If you're scared, you can hold on to me," Sic told me once we started moving.

"No need," I flatly rejected his offer. "I'm not scared."

"Wow. Ang strong naman this girl." He laughed and his voice was filled with sarcasm.

I just rolled my eyes at him but there was a ghost of a smile on my lips.

Sa unang akyat at bagsak namin ay parang wala lang. Mababa lang ang una naming binagsakan. Sa pangalawa at huli, habang papaakyat ay sinobrahan ni Sic ang pag-atras ng kanyang likod. He was almost crashing me behind him.

"Sic! Umusod ka nga ng kaunti!" reklamo ko sa kanya at bahagyang tinutulak ang likod.

"The staff told us to lean our backs for safety purposes!" he reasoned out.
