Seeing him with that kind of smile. It's annoying.
Narinig ko na na-unlock na yung kotse. Agad akong pumasok at di na siya inantay na pag buksan ako. Hmm. Di niya ako gusto, what do you expect. Pag pasok ko amoy na amoy ko yung manly scent ng kotse niya. Ilang babae na kaya ang isinakay niya rito ano? One, two, five, ten? Sa dami ba naman na na-lilink sa kanyang mga babae, you can't stop me thinking like that towards to him.
"Wear the seatbelt," he authoritively said. Napa-tigil ako ng sandali. Ay, grabe. Kanina lang, pangisi-ngisi, tapos ngayon ganyan. Yung totoo? Sinong may dalaw satin ngayon, ha? Ricci? Ano? Sagot! Di pa nga ako nakakapag settle down ng upo, maka utos ka diyan. Bwisit ka!
Agad kong kinuha yung seatbelt. Pero ugh! Di gumagalaw. Nakailang hila na ako, di parin gumagalaw. Ano ba 'to! Yaman yaman, di pinapaayos yung seatbelt.
Really?
He moves to my direction, OMG! Ang lapit ng mukha niya sakin. I can feel his warm breath in my skin! I also can smell his body's perfume. He looked at me. I don't know what do to so I just looked in other direction. Do I have a choice right now? Naiilang ako, seryoso. No guys have been never this near in me. Gosh.
He slowly placed the seatbelt already. Kinabahan ako dun ah. Grabe na 'to! We're on our way to UP. No one dared to speak at this moment. Okay ako dun! Less talk less mistake. Mamaya kung ano pa ang masabi ko. At the first place, di ko naman ginusto na sumama sa kanya ngayon. It's just that... universe is not with me today.
Habang nasa byahe kami, di ko maiwasang mapipitig sa kanya. I want to ask him...
Is he okay? Inaalagaan niya ba sarili niya this past few years? Why did he suddenly change? Bakit siya biglang ganito? Bakit niya ako nakalimutan? Siya yung nangako, diba.
I stared at his face. He got little matured by the looks of his face. His perfect nose, perfect eyes that you cannot resist to look at, kissable lips. Lips that I wanted to kiss. But I know I can't. I can't do it anymore.
"Am I gwapo?" He suddenly asked while his eyes were still fixed on the roads. Nag-iba ang timpla ng mukha ko. Wow ha! Di ko inexpect 'yon. Is he crazy?
I rolled my eyes on him. "Hindi eh," I said and smirked. I looked at the other side of the car. Syet, he noticed it! Di ko kaya yung mga ganito eh.
"Then why are staring? You know... I can give you all my time to just stare at me. Well, it's better than staring at the other guys out there, " he said and laugh. Oh my gosh. What did he say? He's unbelievable! I fake coughed.
"Ina-analyze ko kasi... Your mom and dad are so handsome and beautiful. Kaya lang, I'm wondering kung bakit hindi mo nakuha?" I asked and smirked. He smiled playfully. Really? I get my bottled water in my bag. Nauubusan ako ng hangin at tubig sa nangyayari ngayon eh.
"To tell you the truth, you're the first person to say that. But if you say so, then okay. Don't worry, hindi naman ako affectes. But one thing is for sure," he said and stopped. I looked at him.
"Our son and daughter will get our pretty genes in the future. I'll make sure of that," ani niya. Muntik ko nang maidura yung tubig na iniinom ko? Powtek na! Ano? Son? Daughter? Future? Putspa naman. Ano ba naman ito?
"Teka, teka ha.. Did I hear you right? Kasi if I hear you right, then it won't happen in the future," I confidently said to him. Tumawa siya ng mahina, but enough for me to notice it. Nababaliw na ba 'to?
"It will. Just wait, Ailey," He said. Did he just say ailey? Nanlaki ang mata ko sa sinabi niya. Narinig ko eh, he say Ailey!
"T-teka, can you repeat what you say kanina?" I asked him. He didn't answer for a second and looked at me with his confused eyes. "Alin doon? Ang dami nun ah," he asked. Umiling ako. "Yung huling sinabi mo," I said.
"Ah! About our son and daughter? My god, hailey! Gusto mo na agad? Hala ka! I was just joking and mga bata pa tayo! We have so much priorities na mas dapat unahin! Pero... kung gusto mo na ngayon, why not 'diba? To be honest, may savings and investment naman na ako. So, if we think of it, mabubuhay naman tayo," he said and laugh.
ARGH! WHAT IS HAPPENING HUH? WHAT THE HECK?
Pag dating namin ng UP. Bumaba ako agad. Hindi ko alam kung nang gagalaiti ako ngayon sa hiya or inis. Ewan ko. Di ko na alam ma fe-feel ko ngayon. Takte. I didn't say thank you. I know, I know. It's rude. Pero wala na akong mukhang maihaharap guys!
No, no... this can't be.
Oh, syet. Naiwan yung bag ko sa kotse niya!
