CHAPTER 25. Unexpected

KHALI‘S POV

Nagulat at naguluhan ako dahil bigla niya akong hinawakan sa magkabilang balikat at pinatalikod.

“W-Why?” I asked, taken aback.

Did I just made a mistake?

After what Kianna told me about his silent worries, I racked up my mind to think of the best way to tell him that it doesn‘t bother me when he does those things to me.

But... ugh. I didn‘t really know how.

It‘s really not like me to say those kind of stuffs but I really want to tell him and make him stop worrying about it.

But not this way, though!

But I already did...

Darn it.

I pinched my own hand to calm myself down. Kasalanan ‘to ni Ashley. Humanda siya dahil paglilinisin ko siya ng classroom ng isang buong linggo.

Surely, I was irritated before, because I really, really hate skinship...

Moreover, Trevor makes me strange. I feel a lot of strange things whenever he holds me...

I don‘t know how to handle it. I don‘t know what do to. Pushing him away was always my solution...

He makes me feel a lot of new things. It scares me sometimes, but at times goes by...

Nevermind!!

Darn it! See?! I‘m acting strange again!

Pero... Hay nako. Ngayon pa talaga siya na-conscious sa ganong bagay. -___-

That must be why he was acting strange these past few days—or weeks. Being pushy as he has always been suits him more...

Psh. Stupid Kangaroo...

“W-wait a minute, Lili...” aniya. I heard him heaved a deep sigh several times.

“Are you okay?” nag-aalalang tanong ko.

“I‘m not okay. Definitely not. You should‘ve warn me before doing that...” he whispered after he gave me a back hug.

“You said you don‘t mind...” I answered.

“Yeah, but... I‘m really weak when it comes to you, Lili...” he said in a low voice. “Please, be easy on me...” biro niya.

He heaved a sigh once again.

“Ikaw ba talaga ‘yan, Lili?”

“Hindi ka naman siguro lasing no? Gutom ka ba?” biro pa niya gamit ang mahinahong boses.

“Pagkatapos ba nito... aalis ka na naman?” he said with a hint of hesitation in his voice.

I bit my lower lip.

I couldn‘t answer him because I‘m sure that one day I‘ll have to leave again.
