Chapter 59
“You looked pissed.” Pansin ko kay Casper dahil kanina pa nakakunot ang noo nito habang nasa biyahe kami. Mahigpit ang kapit nito sa steering wheel at parang naririnig ko na ang pagtiim ng bagang nito.
“No, I’m not.” He denied.
Tumaas ang isa kong kilay, hindi naniniwala sa sinasabi niya dahil hindi naman talaga kapani-paniwala. Kung nakikita lang niya ang sarili niya ngayon, pati siya hindi sasang-ayon.
Though, I have a hunch and it made me smile. Ayoko lang magpahalata kay Casper dahil baka lalaki ang ulo nito.
“Really, huh? Your forehead is creasing since earlier.”
“Do I really looked like I’m pissed?”
“Because you are.” I sighed. “come on, Casper. You don’t have to hide it. Kitang-kita sa buong mukha mo.”
He sighed. Kumalma ang mukha nito at ang mahigpit na kapit nito sa manibela ay wala na. He’s calmed, I can tell.
“Why the heck is that guy inviting you for dinner?” he said. His voice is pissed but I can’t help to smile.
Tumikhim ako at pinawi ang ngiti sa aking labi bago nag-iwas ng tingin.
“He’s one of my suitor but I always told him that I can’t enter in a relationship. Though, he don’t want to stop and well, always asked me to have a dinner with him.” I explained. Matagal-tagal ring naging makulit si Chris sa akin na ilang ulit kong tinatanggihan pero sa huli, hindi talaga ito nakikinig sa akin.
“An annoying suitor, huh?”
“Casper..” I glanced at him. “don’t do anything to him.”
“Wala akong sinasabi.”
“I know you.” I narrowed my eyes at him. “besides, I don’t really mind if he’s like that. Palagi ko namang sinasabi na ayoko at hindi p’wede. Titigil rin ‘yon.”
“He won’t stop until I show him that you’re already off-limits.” He tsk-ed. “babalik ulit ako sa kompanya niyo.”
“Sa tingin ko sapat na ‘yong sinabi mo kanina.” I said. “you mentioned earlier about our children."
“I did that on purpose.” He sounded so proud. “so that he will completely stop inviting you for dinner, hmm?”
I shook my head unbelievably. Mas maayos na rin ‘yong ginawa niya para talaga titigil na si Chris sa pag-iimbita sa akin. Bukod sa ayoko at busy ako, halos libreng oras ko ay nasa pamilya ko. I wanted to focus on them. Now that we’re complete and Casper is doing his finest best to make it up to his daughter.
Kung sana nalaman kong ganito si Casper nang mas maaga, ipinaalam ko na sana sa kanya na may anak kami. Aquila really crave for a father’s love that I couldn’t give her. Kaya masayang-masaya ako no’ng dumating si Casper at pinuna ang matagal ng inaasam ni Aquila.
The reason.. why I love him.
“Anyway, saan pala tayo pupunta? You’re going to somewhere else, right?”
Tumango ako. “Yes, but I’m not going to tell you where it is. Pagkatapos nating mag-order ng lunch, ako na ang mag d-drive.”
“Are you going to surprise me?”
“Hmm?” napaisip ako. “Uhm, kinda.”
“I don’t know but I’m getting nervous.”
Napahalakhak ako at sinulyapan siya. Inabot ko ang isa niyang kamay at pinagsiklop sa akin para pakalmahin siya.
