"What the hell are you thinking, Blake?! Kung saan-saan mo dinadala si Aliyah! Paano kung may mangyaring masama sa kaniya? How could you think you can take care of her when you can't even take care of yourself?! Who permitted you? You even hid her phone, for Pete's sake!" Ben's angry and loud voice echoed across the four corners of his study.
Blake was just looking at him with boredom while I couldn't meet Ben's gaze because of shame.
I was too horny that I had forgotten to tell him my whereabouts, and here we are now. Pinagagalitan nito ang anak niya, dahil ang punto niya ay mas matanda sa akin si Blake at mas may isip kung kaya naman siya ang may pananagutan sa isang araw at dalawang gabi naming pagkawala.
Pagkabalik sa mansyon ay masamang tingin at galit agad ni Benedict ang sumalubong sa aming dalawa.
Sa katunayan ay si Blake lang ang pinagagalitan nito, at pakiramdam ko ay sobrang sama kong tao kung hindi ko ipagtatanggol si Blake.
"Ben, you can't solely blame Blake because I agreed to go with him. I just had a stressful week and his offer seemed very tempting kaya pumayag akong mag-out of town." Of course, the real deal would be kept from his knowledge. Alangan namang sabihin kong "sumama ako kay Blake kasi alam kong ikakadena niya ako at babayuhin" hindi ba? Hindi ko rin naman alam na ganoon pala ang plano niya, pero kung ganoon ang magiging imbitasyon niya, agad akong sasama.
"He just kept my phone to take the stress away because I logged my work email there. He was just concerned," pagpapatuloy ko pa. I saw Blake quietly snickering kaya palihim ko itong inirapan.
"I will let this pass this once, but the next time this happens, I will have the drivers pick up Aliyah in the office," banta ni Ben.
"Whatever, I'll go now," simpleng paalam ni Blake bago ito umalis. Pabagsak niya pang isinara ang pinto.
"Ali, what are you doing?" nakakunot ang noo na tanong ni Ben.
"Ben, I was trying to gain his trust by keeping him company. Huwag ka nang magalit kay Blake, wala namang nangyaring masama," malambing na sabi ko.
Ben responded with a deep sigh. Tinitigan ako nito, at para bang may gusto itong sabihin pero pinigilan na lamang niya ang kaniyang sarili.
I gave him an assuring smile, and he acted like he was defeated. Umasta ito na para bang wala siyang magagawa dahil sa aking mga sinabi.
Lumipas din naman ang init ng ulo ni Ben. His gentleness and calmness found their way into his voice once again. Ben casually asked me what was happening, kung bakit ako stressed, and I gave him a little information about work.
The following week went smoothly. Kasabay ko pa rin si Blake pumasok at umuwi. Alin lamang sa dalawa ang aming ginagawa tuwing break, kumakain sa labas o kaya ay kumakain kasama ang aking mga katrabaho kung saan napupuno ng tanong tungkol sa pagpapakasal ang hapag.
