(BOOK 2) This is the continuation of When I Laid My Eyes On You. I advise you to read the Book 1 first.
May mga pangyayari talaga na hindi mo maasahan. Matatanong mo na lang sa sarili mo na "Bakit kaya naging gan'to?". You tend to try to change ev...
Pumunta ako sa tree house at tumambay muna doon. It's windy here and I like the breeze, tugma sa broken heart ko.
"Scared?" Napatalon ako sa gulat.
Napatingin ako sa nag salita.
"N-Nathan!" Nanginginig kong tawag.
He pulled off his jacket and let me wear it.
"Scared?" Ulit niyang tanong.
"In what?" Naguguluhan kong tanong.
"You're scared... He's giving you puzzle pieces to make the picture come together, while you keep on finding ways to not solve it." He crossed his arms and smiled weakly.
Nabigla naman ako sa sinabi niya.
"We have the biggest crush on you..." Natawa siya dun at umiling. "Kaming mag babarkada. But, ever since when you came into our lives, you made Lance change the most."
"Back in highschool, He stalks you, ask about you, bukambibig ka kumbaga."
Nanlaki mata ko. Stop, please.
"You can see it in his eyes that he truly and deeply cares for you. Hanggang ngayon, Zea. He still does. Don't miss this opportunity to be okay again. Don't let him or you move on, without talking about this. Please have the strength to do so. He kept on making the first move. You do it now. Before it's too late." He patted my shoulder.
Nagising ako sa mga sinasabi niya. I need to at least be enlightened of what his side is.
I can't keep on concluding.
"S-Saglit nga! Ba't parang may love life ka? May hindi ka sinasabi sa'kin. Is there something you're not saying? Nathan?" Nag aalala kong tanong.
Ngumiti siya, "I love someone, now."
With that simple statement it sent shivers down my spine. I feel kilig!
"Hala! Sino?!" I poked his side.
He smirked and tries to stop me, "Her name's Penelope Amora Rodriguez."
Wait... What?
"Kapatid ni Justus?!" He smirked and nodded.
Tinalikuran niya na ako at bumaba na sa treehouse.
My Nathan is in love now! How bout my Ian and my Ryan? I badly need to catch up!
Bumaba na ako sa treehouse at nadatnan kung sino ang nasa loob ng bahay.
Tumakbo ako papasok and I saw Justus and her lovely sister Penelope.
"Amora! Justus!" Ngumiti ako habang papalapit sakanila.
"A-Ate!" Tinanggal niya ang pagkahawak ni Nathan sakaniya.
Nathan pouted.
"I know, Amora. You don't have to hide it." I squeezed her arm.
She smiled awkwardly and pulled Nathan somewhere, hay.
"Your little sister is growing up." I commented to Justus.
Umiling naman si Justus, "Don't mention it. Si Nathan lang pumasa saamin ni Daddy."
Natawa naman ako.
"Ba't nga pala kayo nandito?" Biglaan kong tanong.
"Just heard the news about Jane's baby. I wanted to rush here to comfort you." He smiled.
Tinagilid ko ang ulo ko at ngumiti. This guy.
He spread his arms wide, "Come on. I know you want a hug!" He confidently said.
I smirked and hugged him.
We hugged each other tight.
"Thank you..." I uttered.
He smelled my hair, "Of course."
We were swaying side to side while hugging that made us laugh. Napatigil kami when someone cleared their throat.
Napahiwalay kami and I saw Lance coldly staring at us.
"Can I talk to Zea?" He coldly said.
Justus was staring at me like he doesn't want to let go of me. I assured him that I'll be fine.
He sighed and pulled me into a tight hug before letting me go.
I followed Lance up to the rooftop.
Even his back is very attractive and intimidating.
Shut it, Zea! Napaka mo!
Pumunta kami sa covered lounge and he sat at one of our couches here.
Halatang lagi siya andito kaysa sa'kin.
I sat in front of him.
"What are we going to talk about?" Pormal kong tanong.
He looked at me with those cold expressionless eyes. I can't deal with that but I didn't know how I got all the strength to have a staring show down with him.
"I want to clear this to you, miss." He sternly said.
I crossed my legs and arched a brow.
"I don't want you seeing someone else, holding someone else, and heck even kissing someone else." He groaned.
I leaned forward and rested my chin on my fingers, "As far as I know, mister. We're not together." I said sweetly.
Natigilan siya doon pero mabilisan din siya nakarecover. He just looked at me with cold eyes.
"Hmmm, where's the ring that you took off from me?" I asked him directly.
"I threw it." He smirked.
Strike 1.
"Oh, that means if you did throw that. It means the possibility of us being back together will not come back." I equalled his smirk.
"Funny, miss. I threw it because I made fucked up mistakes with that ring and I want to start something new to you. Umalis ka na lang kaagad na walang paalam. Tinakasan mo ko, you ran away from me and it's completely unfair." Inilabas niya ang isang black velvet box.
Binuksan niya iyon, its a Fancy Rose Gold Plated Art Deco Opal Promise Ring. It is very beautiful!

"Now, I want to start something new. We'll begin as strangers, friends, best friends, and whatever comes next. I would never lose this opportunity. Lalo na't aalis tayo next week sa Romblon para tignan ang construction site para sa resort natin, miss."
He held my wrist.
Sinubukan kong pumiglas when he shoot me glares.
"Kahit ito lang tanggapin mo." He said with annoyance.
"Ano ba?!" Naiinis kong sabi.
"Kahit ito lang please." Lumambing ang tono niya.
I sighed and let him wear the ring.
"I promise that I'll be a better man." Yun lang ang sinabi niya at umalis na.
