Chapter 7
KISSING

Nakita kong nakasunod ang mga mata ni Kyla sa amin habang papalabas. I pushed my body beside Third, closing our distance more. Nang hindi makuntento'y kumapit pa ako sa braso niya at nakangiting sumabay, kunyari'y masaya kaming nag-uusap. Kahit ang totoo'y halos patayin na niya ako sa talim ng tingin niya.

Saka ko lang binitawan ang kanyang braso noong makalayo na kami. Napatingin siya sa braso niya bago nag-angat ng tingin sa akin.

"What are you doing?" he asked impatiently.

"What? Am I not allowed to hold your arm? What if I slip there? Met an accident? I was just—" nangatarungan pa ako.

"The one in the kitchen..." he pointed it intently. "What do you really want to happen?"

"What? I just want you to drink juice and then it poured accidentally. I just want you to have a taste with it."

"I told you I'm fine, ain't I? You could've just put it the table the moment I told you that!" tunog nauubusan ng pasyensiya na siya.

I chuckled at him. Gwapo naman nito kahit galit. Kung di lang talaga masungit at rude, e.

"Well, I'm sorry, alright? But if you just decided to drink it then, it wouldn't really happen. Hindi ko rin naman namalayang bigla kang lilingon, e. It was purely an accident, Third. It wasn't my intention to pour it on you. Ikaw pa ba ang ipapahamak ko?"

Dumilim ang titig niya. Doon ko lang napansin ang depina ng mga mata niya. It was dark almond brown pair of eyes. Madilim at hindi expressive. Pero kapag may emosyon siya roon, hindi rin naman mahirap tukuyin. It was as if his eyes are built for dark spaces of emotions. Nevertheless, it looks so attractive.

Kung isa ako sa babaeng baliw sa kanya, his eyes will be my first attraction. He's like tempting all the girls with those. Kahit wala naman siyang ginagawa dahil natural na madilim talaga iyon. His eyes are like a mysterious dark spaces in the universe... pulling you to another angle.

"Ano ba talaga ang gusto mong mangyari?"

"Gusto ko lang uminom ka ng juice—"

"Why are you doing this?" mariin niyang putol sa akin. "What do you want from me?"

Tinagilid ko ang ulo ko at humalukipkip. Pinagmasdan ko siya gamit ang mapupungay na mga mata, titig na titig, at halos interesadong-interesado sa kanya. I smiled sweetly at him.

"I told you already, right?" I uttered softly. "You interest me..."

"We just know each other yesterday and you want me to believe that?"

His jaw firmed hardly. Tumitig ako sa panga niya. I saw Kyla behind him who's looking anywhere to find us. Ngumiti ako nang pagkatamis-tamis at ibinalik ang titig sa kanya.

"Oh dear, you don't have any idea how hot you are whenever you're rude to me, aren't you?" I uttered sensually. "You don't have any idea how much you're turning me on everytime you're looking at me with dark face..."

Nagagalit na siya lalo sa mga sinasabi ko. I know he's not going to believe everything about I said but somehow, I can see that he is torn because I sounded too real. I sounded really interested to him. I'm too convincing that even when he won't buy any my stunts, he won't still accused me of acting.

"You don't have any idea how you got me when you're acting cold and rude to me. It's so freaking attractive..." I bit my lower lip slowly.

"Don't bullshit me," he said with gritting teeth. "Go home to where you are. I know your game. This is not the first time—"
