TGIWS: Phoenix Ryler Velasquez's POV (Completed)

Part 15

"Hindi naman kita pinilit, ah? Akala ko nga tatanggi ka pero nag-okay ka." Tiningnan ko siya, my eyes shifted at her face. Ang ganda niya talaga.

Napatingin naman siya sa akin until she realized something. May binubulong pa siya. I laughed at her. Ang cute niya lang, at totoong tanga siya but fine, a little bit.

"May sakit ka ba?"

Nagulat naman ako sa tanong niya. Why is she asking me that kind of question?

Umiling ako. "Wala, why?"

"Wala rin naman," she shook her head as she looked at me.

I became silent about her actions. She's staring at my face for some reason. I can't help it but to be fucking awkward while her eyes was on me. Ano ba ang mayroon at nakatingin siya? Didn't she know, she's making me damn crazy by staring at me?!

"S-Stop staring, Miranda." Iniwas ko ang tingin ko dahil hindi ko kinaya ang tingin ni Darlene.

Hindi niya yata alam ang impact ng ginagawa niya sa 'kin ngayon. Damn.

Natawa naman siya."Una na ako baka mainip na sila sa baba at gutom na rin ako," sabi niya. "Lakas ng trip mo ngayong gabi, Velasquez."

Malakas ang trip ko dahil sa 'yo kung alam mo lang.

Paalis na sana siya kaso tinawag ko pa siya. "Miranda, wait."

She turned her head on me. "Bakit? Miss mo na ako kaagad?" Araw-araw kaya kitang miss, everyday and every fucking night. I am actually dreaming about you. "Joke lang, ano 'yon?"

"Yeah, why?" It wasn't a joke but I guess... for her it was a joke. I laughed when I saw her face getting red. "Your face was so fucking red."

"May allergy kasi ako kaya namumula ang mukha!" Talaga lang, ah? "May allergy ako sa banat ng mga tao kaya namumula 'yong mukha ko kapag hindi ko kinakaya."

"So, hindi mo kinaya kaya ka namula?" pang-aasar ko.

"Tangina naman nito, pinapalala mo, e."

I laughed while getting her necklace from my pocket. "I want to give this back." I showed the black velvet box. "That's your necklace. You were right, nalaglag siya sa 'yo good thing I found it."

Kita ang gulat sa mata niya nang makita ang necklace. "Na sa 'yo naman pala, e. Pinahirapan mo pa akong mag-hanap pati sila Alexis at Kier."

"I want to know if you are the person who values ​​what is given to you. I thought you would lie to me but it was just a thought. You tell me the truth. You're the person who values things, old or new."

"H-Ha gano'n?"

Bakit kaya siya nauutal? Wala naman akong ibang sinasabi kundi 'yon lang.

"Don't lose this, Miranda. This is very important and please wear it everyday." May tracking device kasi ang necklace na 'to kaya kailangan niyang suotin palagi para kung sakaling mawala siya ay madali siyang mahahanap.

She nodded. Tinabi na niya ang binigay ko. "A-Alis na ako."

Wait, gusto ko pa siyang makausap! I need to think a reason para manatili siya dito. Right, her tweet! She wants to know on how to play drums. Alright, yayayain ko siya sa bahay namin just to teach her. Gusto ko lang naman siyang makasama that day.

"Sige basta walang bayad, ah?"

Napaisip ako sa sinabi niya. "Libre ang pagtuturo sa mga susunod pero may bayad ang unang pagtuturo." I smirked.

What a brilliant idea, Nix.

Tiningnan ko siya. Simple lang naman ang gusto ko. I want to be with our baby—I mean, iyong dog namin. I missed Lucy so much. Nasa puder niya, e, dapat ay nasa akin rin, 'di ba?
