The Calculus of Connection (Acad. Rival Series #1)

Chapter 18

"Hey, you deserve everything baby, it's okay if you're not yet ready to let me into your life again, I will wait and do everything that I can to have a chance to enter and be part of your life again." I can hear genuineness in his voice.

"How about Blair, how about your child with her?" I cried and sobbed so hard dahil naalala ko na naman na baka siya ang ama ng dinadala ni Blair, bakit ba ngayon pa pumasok sa isip ko to.

I heard him chuckled because of my question, alam ko na agad kung bakit niya tinawanan ang tanong ko, I've drown myself in conclusion again.

Nakakahiya!

"I'm not the father of her child, I was just with her as a friend nothing else I promise." he said in between of his soft chuckles.

"Oh..." wala na akong ibang masabi pa, nakakahiya, pinangunahan ko na naman ang lahat.

"Yeah...so don't worry about anything regarding about her, I can cut her off if you're not comfortable with me being connected with her, again I'm truly sorry baby." he sincerely said.

Para na akong mahihimatay dahil sa bilis nang tibok nang puso ko, he can really make my heart increase it's beat.

"Don't worry baby, I won't pressure you on giving me another chance to prove myself to you, I'll work for it until you see me as someone who's deserving for a chance to be part of your life again." wika nito.

We're in his car sa labas nang gate nang bahay ko, he drove me back to the house since I didn't bring my car with me.

"Thank you." tanging wika ko bago bumaba sa sasakyan niya.

Hinintay ko na makaalis ang kaniyang sasakyan bago pumasok sa gate nang bahay just to end up seeing my parent's behind the gate gossiping.

God, my parents and their gossip ass!

"Hmm...naaamoy mo rin ba yon, Hon?" tanong ni Mama kay Papa.

"Oo parang..." saad ni Papa at tila nag-iisip.

"Love!" sabay nilang saad at parehong tumingin sa akin.

Napapailing nalang talaga ako sa mga inaakto nang magulang ko e, but they're really adorable at some point.

"Yeah, yeah, tayo na po at pumasok na tayo sa bahay." I held both of their hands and pull them towards our house which made them laugh.

Iniwan ko si mama at papa sa sala at pumasok sa kwarto ko, from my bedroom I can hear them laughing and talking about something about me and Nicholas since narinig ko ang mga pangalan namin sa kanilang pag-uusap.

"Seryuso ba?!" tanong ni Hailee sa kabilang linya gamit ang matinis niyang boses.

"Oo nga, shock nga rin ako." tugon ko sa kaniya habang nakahawak sa isang tainga ko dahil sa pagsigaw ni Hailee.

"So ano, bibigyan mo ba siya nang chance? mukha namang sincere siya." makabuluhang saad niya.

"I don't know, siguro?" patanong kung saad.
