Treacherous Battle (Salvaje Caballero Series 2)

Seis

I stood up and put my plate on the sink. "Pahabol." sambit ko.

Nang makitang dumilim ang mata ni Nathan ay agad akong kumaripas ng takbo papunta sa aking silid.

There's something about him that pulls me towards him. Is it because he's older? Pero tatlong taon lang naman ang age gap namin.

My thoughts about him was interrupted when I heard a phone call.

"Kazee!"

"Bakit?" tanong ko nang makitang si Louisa ang nasa kabilang linya.

"Your father is so fucking mad! Pinuntahan niya ako mismo sa school natin!"

Napasinghap ako sa narinig. Why the fuck would he do that?

"What? Don't tell me na nilaglag mo ako! Louisa papatayin kita!" banta ko.

"You think I'll fucking do that? Hell no! Natatakot ako para sayo, Kalia." Her voice was so sincere.

At tuwing tinatawag niya ako sa unang pangalan ko, alam kong seryoso siya.

"Aldrew is here by the way." I changed the topic.

"Aldrew? That Aldrew Cabrales?"

"Yeah, ang gwapo niya." Pagkukuwento ko.

"Linandi mo?" akusa niya agad.

I laughed hard. "Hindi noh. I have someone I like."

Ilang oras muna kaming nagkausap. Pagkatapos ay lumabas ako para kumuha ng tubig.

Kumunot ang noo ko nang makitang nakabukas pa din ang ilaw sa sala.

Walang hiya kong pinasadahan si Nathan habang nagpipinta. He's only wearing muscle shirt and sweatshorts. His muscles flexed as he brushed strokes in his painting.

Nasulyapan ko kung gaano kaganda ang kanyang ginagawa pero mas interesado ako sa nagpipinta.

I bit my lip to prevent myself from smiling. It's a good thing I'm holding my phone. Pasimple kong kinuhanan siya ng litrato.

"Uh oh." sambit ko nang mabisto sa kagagahan. 

Kumunot ang noo niya at binalingan ako ng masamang tingin.

"Need drink? Snack? What do you want babe?" I offered.

"Delete that." Matigas niyang sambit.

I pouted more. "No, I'm going to make this my wall paper."
