MISS FOREIGNSYANA [Under Revision]

CHAPTER 47

Sassy's POV

"The limo is already waiting outside the tower, stop playing!," Kuya Grey's voice echoed. I saw him behind Kyle.

"Let's go Am—"

He stopped when Kyle look back. Nagpapalit palit ang tingin niya sa'kin at kay Kyle. I cleared my throat, sabay silang napatingin sa'kin, napalunok ako.

"K-Kuya ko," I stuttered. Kanina pa ako kinakabahan sa mga titig ni Kyle. "Kyle, si Kuya Grey.. Kuya, si Kyle"

They took a glance at each other. Nilampasan ni kuya si Kyle, lumapit siya sa'kin. Hinawakan niya ang braso ko at hinila ako paalis.

"Teka kuya bakit ka ba nagmamadali?," reklamo ko habang pinipilit na kumawala sa kaniya.

Nilingon ko si Kyle, nanatili siyang nakatayo sa pwesto niya habang pinapanuod kaming umalis. I felt a bit sad.. hindi niya man lang ako hinabol o di kaya pinigilan. Oo nga, sino ba naman ako?

"You think I don't know that man? You're not supposed to talk to him anymore," sermon ni kuya.

Nakabalik na kami sa hotel at ito ako ngayon naha-hot seat. I'm sitting on the couch, kuya is standing in front of me. Jeff and Austin is standing behind the couch with their arms crossed. On my left is Chris sitting on the single couch, Leo's on the right.

"I'll make sure he can't come near you again," Kuya added.

"That was— he didn't mean it, it was unexpected.. I didn't know he's there," saad ko.

"What did he tell you?," Austin asked. Nilingon ko siya.

"Why?"

Nagkibit balikat siya. "Nothing," he smiled.

"Wait, all of you know about Kyle Vin? H-How?," I asked. Nagkatinginan silang lima.

"You have told us about him, I can't remember when but you did," Leo stated.

"Yeah? But — ," tumingin ako kay kuya. "You know his face?"

He smirk. "I did some little research about him that day you told us about him"

"I was about to take engineering too but — nah .. you don't like him anymore, don't you?," Austin asked. I looked at him confused. Hindi ko maintindihan, anong kinalaman ng engineering dito?

"She don't and she will never again," si kuya ang sumagot.

"I don't like him..," I said.

"Good!," Kuya

" I love him"

"What the f*ck?!"

Parang gusto kong matawa sa reaksyon ng mga mukha nila. Napaatras si kuya at iiling iling pa.

"I know that I'm not supposed to feel this .. he's got a family and I don't want to ruin it," malungkot kong saad. Napayuko ako at napabuntong hininga.

"I think.. it's the right time to tell her the truth," Jeff said. Tumingin sa kaniya si kuya. Nilamon ng katahimikan ang paligid. Hindi ko alam kung anong mga nasa isip nila. May alam ba silang hindi ko alam?

Kuya Grey looked at me. "Don't tell mom and Dad. You good at keeping secrets?"

Gumuhit ang ngiti sa mga labi ko. "You can count on me"

"We have access on your phone and all of your gadgets, we're one of those who kept you away from getting news about Kyle and your family here in the Philippines," mabilis na sambit ni Chris. Parang nagrarap lang siya e. I took my time to process all those stuff in my head.

Kaya ba kahit isang beses wala akong natanggap na balita tungkol sa kanila? Kilala ang pamilya Fuentes at imposible na ni minsan hindi sila mababanggit sa balita.

"Y-You have access on my phone right now?," tanong ko.

"I have," kuya replied. "At first, mom and dad have all the access but they got busy with their work so I insist to take over"

Hindi ko alam ang sasabihin. "I don't know what I'm supposed to feel.. should I get mad?," napakamot ako ng noo.

"All this time I didn't have any privacy, all of you got access on my stuff," I laugh bitterly.

"I'm sorry, Amara. I won't tell anyone that you Googled what is masturbate — , " Jeff tried to hold a straight face.

"Pft — ," they all turned red trying to hold their laughs.

My brows furrowed. "If I haven't heard you guys saying that I won't get curious, I didn't know what was that," may bahid ng inis kong saad.

"BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!"

They burst into laughters. Hindi ko alam kung anong nakakatawa.

"Bahala kayo diyan," padabog akong tumayo.

"Where are you going? We haven't told you the most exciting part yet," kuya said laughing.

"That's not even exciting," bwelta ni Austin.

Nilingon ko sila at tinignan ng masama. "What? I'm waiting"

"Why did you keep an epic photo of Austin in your gallery?," Leo asked.

I raised my brow. Kuya crossed his arms while Austin's grinning. "Why? It's funny, you all have an epic photo in my gallery," I told them.

"That's so unfair, I saw my photos in your gallery and I look so handsome even in epic ones," Chris boasted. Napailing nalang ako.

"Yeah, me too," kuya. Isa pa 'to.

"You said you love Kyle, right?" Austin asked. I looked at him, the dimples on the corner of his smiles made me smile too. Nakakahawa din ang mga ngiti niya.

"Love..," i chuckle. "I'm not sure anymore"

"He's not fucking married with Jessica Quiño, the arrange marriage was trashed. He's single," Chris said. Rapping again.

"I'm supposed to say that," bwelta ni Austin.

My mouth formed an o in disbelief. Natulala ako dahil sa narinig. Are they joking me? Baka pinagtitripan lang ako ng mga 'to.

"I—I can't breath..," napahawak ako sa dibdib ko.

"What the fuck! Call 911!," nagpapanic na sigaw ni kuya.

"AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!," napatalon ako habang tumitili. Napahinto sila sa pagpapanic at nagtatakang tumingin sakin.

Nang matapos ako sa paglabas ng nararamdaman ko ay tumayo ako ng maayos at saka inayos ang sarili ko. Nilingon ko sila.

"Magpapahinga lang ako, magkita nalang tayo sa dinner mamaya," paalam ko sa kanila.

Para silang binuhusan ng malamig na tubig. Nasa tainga na ni Jeff ang cellphone at nagsasalita na yata ang operator pero tulala itong nakatingin sa'kin at hindi gumagalaw. Si Austin naman parang naestatwa din at hindi na natuloy ang pagdial. Kuya Grey's looking at me so confused, the same with Chris and Leo.

"Uhm.. sige," nagtungo na ako sa kwarto. Nang maisara ko ang pinto ay napasandal nalang ako dito.

"AHHHHHHHHH!!!" At muli akong napatili. Hindi ako makapaniwala, parang isang himala na hindi natuloy ang kasal.

Marami na ang tumatakbo sa isip ko ngayon. Single daw siya, ibig sabihin ba no'n hinihintay niya ako? WHAAAAAA!! Ayokong mag assume pero .. sana.. sana..

Para akong bumalik sa highschool. Ganitong kilig ang nararamdaman ko dati kapag kasama siya.. kapag naiisip siya. Siguradong hindi ako makakatulog nito mamaya.

Ano na kayang trabaho niya ngayon? Pabagsak akong humiga sa kama. Pumikit ako at inalala ang eksena kanina sa parking lot. Basa ang suot niyang puting dress shirt at bakat ang makisig niyang katawan — aish! Mali ito, bakit ko ba siya pinagpapantasyahan?

Pero sisiguraduhin kong makakapag usap kami kahit sandali lang bago ako bumalik sa California.
