I'm boring. Ito ang mga salitang hanggang ngayon ay naririnig ko pa din sa aking isipan.

I've been avoiding him—no, I didn't intentionally avoid him. Sadyang nakakulong lang si Trevor sa kanyang kwarto at napaka bihirang lumabas. Trevor somehow reminded me of Mom. But unlike my mother, she never ever leave that room since Dad left us. That stupid old man. I hate him for which his blood is running through my veins.

After thirty minutes of wandering thoughts, I was back in reverie when someone just grabbed my butt.

"Can't wait to see you naked, Tori," Dean said as he licked his lips using his disgusting tongue.

No one will like her unless the person's name is Dean. Biglang nag echo sa aking ang sinabi ni Trevor. That bastard really know how to hurt me with words. Parang pinapalabas niya na katulad lang ni Dean ang papatol sa katulad ko. Maybe my brothers are thinking the same way. And maybe, Nikos want to finish the case faster dahil masyado ko na siyang hinahassle. He has a lot of works left in the Philippines.

Agad kong tinanggal ang pagkahawak niya sa aking pwetan at pinisil ang kanyang maduming kamay.

"Bitch that hurts!" He cried in pain. Buti na lang at kahit paapano ay natutunan kong protektahan ang sarili ko.

"It will hurt more if you tried touching me again." May ilang tumitingin sa amin dito sa parking lot at ilang bulungan. I just wanted to go home and take a bath and put anti-bacterial soap in my butt cheeks. I felt so filthy all of the sudden and it's Dean's fault. Now I know how annoying I am when chasing Trevor. Siguro ay ganito rin ang naramdaman niya sa tuwing kinukulit ko siya. Now I realized my action toward Trevor, which made me avoid Trevor even more. I promise myself that I will be Trevor-free!

"Feisty, that's why I like you. I want to see how wild you are in bed." I yelped when he pushed me. Bigla ako napasandal sa wood ng kotse ko. Even though I know how to protect myself, Dean is taller than me ang physically fit. He can inflict physical pain to me in a matter of second. Pero hindi ako papatalo. Lalabanan ko na sana siya nang biglang may asul na kotse ang tumigil sa harapan namin. It almost got Dean into an accident. When I say almost, ilang inches na lang ay tatama na ang gulong ng asul na kotse sa kanyang paa. The driver should run him over using the car. He should've kill him and I am more than happy to Dean's blood. But unfortunately, the driver stopped.

"What the hell man. What's wrong with you? Get out the damn car now." Sabi ni Dean at sinimulang pagsisipain ang kotse na asul. Phew. Buti na lang ay naagaw nito ang atensiyon ni Dean. This is the part where I should flee myself out the situation. Aalis na sana ako nang biglang may humablot sa kamay ko. I tried pushing it away. This damn guy must be a goner!

"Stop doing that and get inside the car, now." Nagulat ako dahil boses ni Trevor ang narinig ko. Halos lumuwa ang mata ko sa aking nakita.

"You're in my way." Lakas loob na sabi ni Trevor kay Dean. Oh no! Dean is ready to punch Trevor and I know Trevor. Hindi siya ang tipo ng tao na uunahin makipagsuntukan. Actually, I never saw him fight. Maybe, his hand is too important for him to get bruised. He played the instrument, and he can't risk his hands just for a silly fight. I stared at Trevor who looked normal. When I say normal, hindi ko man lang nakitaan ng takot o kaba ang kanyang mga mata.

"See you in court..." Eh? Trevor looked so intimidating to the point that it made my body hot. My cheeks are burning from...I don't know.

"The fuck? You're the lawyer?!" Damien said raising his voice but Trevor didn't even budge. He looked at Trevor with this bored face. He looks so cool right now. Lalo na at ang ibang mga hibla ng kanyang buhok at tumatabon sa kanyang mata. I just hope na walang makakilala sa kanya kundi makikita na lang siya sa tabloid bukas o mamaya. Nasty rumors will start to circulate and I don't want to ever think about it.

"Forget the court. The last time that I will see you will be the time you are buried in the ground." Trevor said and pushed me inside his car. Nakita ko at pagkaputla ng mukha ni Dean sa sinabi ni Trevor. Bihira lang magbiro si Trevor pero... Pinagmasdan ko si Trevor na pumasok sa kotse and sinimulan itong paandarin. Is he even joking when he said that? I wonder.

"What?" Pikon na sabi niya habang nakakunot ang nuo na nakatingin sa harapan. Siguro ay napansin niyang nakatitig ako sa kanya.

"Nothing. Dapat hindi ka na lang pumunta, sorry for being a hassle." Nandilim ang mukha niya sa sinabi ko.

"You should feel sorry, young lady." Bigla ako natahimik sa sinabi niya. I felt so bad all the sudden. Saglit lang kami naguusap na dalawa sa buong buhay ko at sa tuwing naguusap kami ay hindi ko maiwasang masaktan.

Why did I even like him in the first place? Maybe the way he looks at people. If he looks at you, you seem to be the most interesting person that he has ever seen. That's why his eyes stand out the most. He always listens. That's the thing about. I noticed whenever he's with his friends he rarely talks but I know he's listening. He also frowns and that made him cute. He never laughs or smiles and I wonder why it's hard for him to do that. Pero simula ngayon, napag desisyon ko na dapat ko na itigil ang kabaliwan ko sa kanya. I treated him like a God but he treated me like a peasant. The world is really unfair. Nagpakawala na lang ako nang isang malalim na buntong hininga.

Trevor, I'm so done.
