PLUNDERER CHIC (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER THIRTY ONE

"It was nice meeting you, Elshein." Nakangiting sabi ni Tita Rose sakin.

"Thank you. It was also nice meeting you, Tita." I said and also did smile at her.

I am with Ice. After we had our snack, sinundo siya ng driver nila sa cafeteria. Sinamahan naman siya namin ni Ice hanggang sa parking lot at naiwan naman ang mga kasama namin sa cafeteria.

"Bye. See you at the grand ball." She waved her and as she walk towards their white Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class car.

An expensive car will never surprised me again since I know these people is too luxurious.

"Let's go back?" Ice said nang maka-alis na ang sasakyan ng mom niya.

Tiningnan ko lang siya ng masama at walang ano anong naglakad patungo sa sasakyan ko.

"Hey Shein? Are you mad?" He followed and asked me.

"No! Naiinis lang ako sayo." Napairap naman ako ng maalala ang sinabi niya kanina na nagpa-awkward sa sitwasyon ko habang kaharap ang mom niya.

"Sorry..." He said as he hold my right hand.
"... I just don't like mom telling you she'll help you find a partner."

Napatingin naman ako sa kaniya dahil sa sinabi niya.

"Tsk!" Tinanggal ko ang kamay ko sa pagkakahawak niya.

"Well, that's true anyway, and wala namang kaso kay mom." Sabi niya ulit.

"Yeah, whatever." Napairap nalang ako which made him chuckled.

"Don't be embarrassed." He said and hinawakan na naman ang kamay ko.

Napairap nalang ako at umiwas ng tingin. I heard him chuckled and dinala ako patungo sa sasakyan ko.

Takang tumingin naman ako sa kaniya ng mag stop kami sa tapat ng pintoan.

"I know you're tired. Drive safely." Binitawan niya ang kamay ko at hinawakan naman ang pisnge ko.

"Tsk. Wash your face once you're home. I don't like you wearing makeup. Nanakakainis yung mga nakatingin sayo kanina." Seryosong ngunit may halong inis na sabi niya.

"Tss.." Napaiwas nalang ako ng tingin at tinanggal ang kamay niyang naka-hawak sa pisnge ko.

"Whatever." Sabi ko at binuksan ang pintoan ng sasakyan ko.

"Bye, see you tomorrow." Huling sabi ko bago pumasok sa loob ng sasakyan ko.

He just smiled and watching me drive away from the parking lot.

Napailing nalang ako. What a day.

Nang makarating ako sa bahay. I saw Clayd, Blake and Zel at the living room.

"Shein, buti andito ka na." Agad na salubong sa akin ni Zel.

Then I remember, I haven't seen them kanina sa theater room.

"What happened?" I asked while seriously looking at them.

Nagkatinginan naman si Blake at Clayd while Zel was just smiling at me.

"Wala, Shein... I'm just the winner yehey!" Masiglang sagot at sabi niya sa akin.

"Look, my trophy!" She added then kinuha pa ang maliit na trophy na nasa center table.

Napa poker face naman ako dahil sa ginawa niya. I know something's off. They told me na manunuod sila, but they didn't.

"Hindi kayo marunong magtago ng sekreto, Zel." Bored na sabi ko.

Nawala naman ang ngiti niya at napakamot nalang ng ulo.

"What? You're not gonna tell me?" I said and remain serious and fiercer.
