Allison Villanueva: Chasing Pavements

Chapter 7

Lumipas ang isang linggo at di na nakita pang muli ni Allison and nagngangalang Carlos Pineda na siyang nagmamay-ari sa buong farm kung san nagiging supplier na pala mapa export man o hindi. Sa loob na mga araw na pamamalagi ni Allison nakakahalubilo niya ang ibang taga rito at sa mga kwento ng mga ito walang marinig na pintas para sa Carlos Pineda na iyon.

He's a gift to everyone, giving jobs to them by working in his farm, respected but never make himself as powerful as a billionaire does. Yun ang masasabi ni Allison base sa mga komento ng lahat.

After that long conversation with Jayden on the phone secretly Allison decided to do some more things to dig deeper in that man's life. Ayaw man ni Jayden but she can do things with or without him notice. She's up to her bed and prepare herself to go out when she heard something rattled outside.

Napabuntong hininga si Allison, kasi naman ang bahay ni Kaloy ay isang open house sa lahat. yung kusina niya bukas para sa lahat ganun ka kampante ang mga taong walang gagawa ng masama, they treat each and everyone as a family kaya nga nakagaanan niya ang mga tao dito.

Kampante siyang bumaba sa hagdan at binuksan ang pinto palabas ng kusina when she grip her own breath with a shock on her face when she saw someone standing right in front of her with a bit of surprise in his face as well. She wasn't expecting this man would show up handsomely in this early hour.Crap!..did she just say handsomely??

"Morning". napakaswabe ng boses nito nang magsalita pagkatapos nilang magkagulatan sabay tungo sa mesa kung saan may nakahandang kape para magtimpla. He seems so comfortable in his way of exploring Kaloy's kitchen. He just wearing his faded jeans and a t-shirt that really mold his body frame...what a wonderful sight in themorning, right?

Allison gulp and speak. "magandang umaga po ser". well you heard it Allison speak like some kind of difficulty with using an E to I well it is normal when you stayed in provinces, she used to it anyway for her cover ups. kumilos si Al nang naaayon sa kanya at pinilit na wag mataranta sa prisensya niya.

"Si Kaloy?". Tanong nito habang nagtutunaw ng kape sa mug. Sumilay ng konteng tingin sa gawi ni Carlos at nagbawi ulit.

"Nasa laot pa po". She get a cup of water and gargled. Pero naasiwa siya bigla at napahinto habang mukha siyang naka ewan sa harap ng lalaki. Carlos just look at her and Al cant even read his mind through his gaze. She slowly bent down and threw the water inside her mouth and wipe it. well in the other side Carlos tried to look nothing but deep in his mind he's laughing, Bonita looks cute earlier with that mouth puffed with water.

"Bonita". He said it with unsure tone. Nakita niyang napalingon sa kanya si Allison na abalang nagpapaapoy. "Tama ba?". kunot noo niyang sambit ulit kasi di niya alam kung tama ba ang pagkaalala niya sa pangalan ng dalaga.

"o-oho". her cheeks redden not because she find it attractive from him but she's a little bit pissed when amusement of her name registered to his eyes and she's sure of it. Para kasi itong nangingiti pero nagpipigil lang.

"right". sabay tango pero nakatitig padin kay Al."wag mo masamain ang sasabihin ko sa'yo....nagkanobyo ka na ba?".Sabay inom ng kape niya. Napaderetso ng tingin si Al habang kunot noong naghihintay ng sasabihin ng lalaki. "Napapansin ko kasi na masyado kang halata sa nararamdaman mo". He smirk after that.

Para namang nabuhusan ng isang timabng tubig na may yelo sa narinig.
