The Love Of Fate

Chapter 44

"Hey are you okay?"

Napatingin ako sa gilid ko at nakitang si Fen iyon. Ngumiti ako at tumango bago tumingin sa kalangitan. We're at the pool. Hindi kami natuloy sa maquinit dahil sa nangyari at nanghihinayang talaga ako kasi first time ko dapat 'yon. And we have to lay low for now. It's dinner time but I don't have appetite to eat right now. Uuwi kami sa makalawa para ayusin ang gulo.

This is the consequences of my action. I didn't think that peoples know us will eventually do this. In just a moment, we're now facing this problem.

Goodness. Ang gusto ko lang ay makapagpahinga at ngayon heto na at nakikipag rambulan na sa utak ko ang nangyayari. Hindi ko na naman inaasahan na gagawin nilang bigdeal ang paglapit ko kay Dave at mga hawak hawak niya. Hayst.

"Don't stress yourself." I collect myself together with that thoughts.

"Really fen?" I shifted my glance at him. "This is stressing the hell out me and now you're saying that don't stress myself. Gosh. I don't want this. Kakaayos lang namin at heto na naman ang problem." Bumuntong-hininga ako sa huli.

Inuhulog ni fen ang paa niya sa pool kagaya ng ginawa ko. Pinaglaruan ko lang ang tubig habang nakatingin sa maayos na kalangitan. The good scenery is in my front facing with the good full moon. The light from the moon gives us light to see the beauty of the resort.

Bianca's are in our room right now and others. They're resting. Nakita ko pang busy ang manager ko sa pag-aarange ng mga sched ko at sa mga interviews. Ako lang talaga at si fen ang nandito. Dave is busy too in his room and I don't want to bother him with my thoughts.

"Don't put the guilt in yourself. There's nothing wrong with being with your someone. You're not just allowed with your chosen field. But you can talk it out with your agency and explain it to them. There's nothing wrong to try. It's for you and for him. Not others." Napangiti ako sa mahabang litantya ni Fen. He has a point. I'm not making living for them to be nosy on my private life.

"I understand. It's just that they willing to gossip just to get information. And Mr. Puress. I know she's mad and I have to do this interview. To explain my side. It's not a big deal, actually. They're just making it big deal."

Narinig ko ang matunog na ngisi ni Fen kaya napatingin ako sa kanya. He's grinning ear to ear. Napangiti na lang din ako at napailing-iling. 

"Okay. I'm curious. If the interview was held by now and the question is 'What's your relationship with Mr. Photographer? Or the investor' what are you going to say?" Nakangising aniya. Nagulat ako ng una pero natawa na lang din kasi inaasahan ko na iyan ang magiging tanong sa interview.

Napanguso ako at napaisip habang nakatingin sa asul na tubig ng pool. Ano nga ba? I don't know too. Oo kababati lang namin at nagkaintindihan kami pero he didn't say it too. It's MU but it's lack of label. Kailangan pa ba kung nagkakaintindihan naman kayo?

A roared of laughter voice out from Fen. Napanguso na lang ako habang nakikinig sa tawa niya. Huhu kahit kasi ako hindi ko rin alam. Ano ba 'to? Ano nga ba kasi? Isa rin 'tong lalaking ito masyado ring chismoso. Pero mas chismoso kung sino man ang mag-iinterview sa amin.

"Tsk tsk. Thinking huh?" May halong panunuya na sabi ni fen. Tiningnan ko siya ng masama.

"Of course!" I exclaimed. S'yempre, baka mamaya ay madulas ako at sinabi kong oo may relasyon kami pero para sa kanya wala. Ouch huh. So ako lang ang willing ha?! Ako pa tinanggihan niya.

"And why? I thought you'd talk it with him?" Nagtatakang sabi niya.

"Oo. Pero hindi ang label." Napanguso ulit ako ng tumawa siya. Tsk. Buti na lang kami lang ang nandito dahil nagrequest kami na wala munang magpapasok dahil ayaw ko pang magkaroon ulit ng ganoong kumosyon.
