Chapter 18

Well, fine. Tris is really pretty. Sexy at matangkad pa. Tipikal na pang-model yung itsura. Pang centerfold sa Vogue Magazines.

Pagkapasok pa nga lang namin ng mall kanina ay madami na ang napapalingon dito. Paano ba naman kasi kababae nitong tao pero mas matangkad pa ito sa ibang mga lalaki na nakakasalubong namin. It's really not surprising if men felt inferior around Tris. Mas malakas pa kasi yung hatak nito sa mga babae kesa sa mga lalaking nakakasalubong namin.

Tris has this invisible magnetic force around her that's oozing with overflowing appeal and charisma. Masyadong nakaka-attract. A typical chic-magnet. At kahit siguro sinong straight na babae ay awtomatikong mabebend nito sa isang sulyap lang.

But heck that I'll admit it infront of her.

"Bahala ka sa buhay mo. Lokohin mo sarili mo." I choose to ignore her but Tris really has no plans in letting me bore myself in the corner.

"Sure ka? Di ka talaga interesado? Madami pa naman akong gustong isend sayo." in-scan pa nito yung gallery ng phone nito gayung nakikita ko naman.

Halos manuyo yung lalamunan ko nang makita na may photo ito na tanging robe lang ang suot. Nakabukas yung kalahati niyon kaya kitang-kita yung halos kalahati ng dibdib nito.

Tris really looks like a love deity as her eyes are burning with unfathomable longingness. Something that's making everyone wonder about what kind of longingness that is.

Making you want to devour and pleasure her in a slow, sensual, way. In an extreme, pure, seduction that requires an hours of foreplay until she's already begging for you.

"I hate this." binura ni Tris yung photo nang mapansin na nakatingin na ako doon. "Ang pangit no? Sorry. Lee wants me to take this shot instead of Payne kasi."

"Bakit mo binura?" Takang tanong ko. Gusto kong agawin yung phone nito at ibalik iyon sa undeleted photos.

"Sabi ni Mama parang kita na daw kaluluwa ko dyan. Pinagalitan nga ak-"

"You look hot there." I replied honestly. Nang lumingon ito na para bang importante dito yung opinyon ko ay sumeryoso naman ako.

"You think so? Hindi bastos tingnan? Sabi ni Mama wag na daw ulit akong magpopose ng ganyan. I am becoming like a sex object for other people by just wearing that."

"No. You look hot. Hindi sa paraang nakakabastos. Saka natatakpan pa naman ang dapat matakpan. I think the photographer is highlighting your facial expression than your body. Look at how expressive your eyes are in there. It says a lot about your character."

Kumunot ang noo nito at saka hinanap sa bin nito yung kabubura lang na picture.

"And what does it says about my character?" curious na tanong nito na inilapit sakin yung screen.

I stared at the photo once more.

Tris is undeniably an eye-catcher. A giver. Not an aware taker.

"Your eyes have a language of it's own." Ibinalik ko yung phone dito at saka umayos ng upo.

"In what way?"

"Wala."

How could I tell her that her eyes are speaking what her mouth could not? It's mirroring her soul. Nakakatakot.

She's drawing people in because there's a look in her eyes that says there's an empty space within her that needs to be filled. At lahat ng makakakita niyon ay nag-uunahan na maghangad na punan kung anuman yung kulang dito. Little did they know that it's nothing but a trap.
