My Short Tempered Husband (Freezell #5) [Completed]

Eight

Aeickel's P.O.V

Inilayo ko si Ayler mula sa pagkakayakap sa akin at lumuhod upang maging kapantay niya. Ayler Liam is one of the twin son of my cousin, ate Aiyell. "Where's your Mom?" Tanong ko dito sa natural na boses ko. Mawiwirduhan ang pamangkin ko kung gagamitin ko ang boses na ginagamit ko kapag kaharap si Nigel.

Alam ko na din naman na hindi na lulusot ang kahit ano pang sasabihin ko kay Nigel kaya't wala na din akong ginawa upang pagtakpan ang sitwasyon.

"She's probably in the next elevator with Ayce, Tita Aei." Paliwanag naman nito sa akin. Ayce is his twin brother.

"AYLER!" Tinig iyon ni ate Aiyie.

Napatayo ako mula sa pagkakaluhod at mabilis naman tumago sa likod ko si Ayler. "Mommy."

"You'll be death of me," saka pa napahinga ng malalim si ate Aiyie. "Tumakbo nalang bigla 'yang batang 'yan. Mabuti at dito dumeretso. At mabuti Aeickel nandito ka."

"Say sorry to Mom." That cold little voice is Ayce.

"Sorry, Mommy." Saka na umalis sa likod ko ang paslit at tumungo sa Mommy niya at humalik dito. "I saw Tita Aeickel in one of the stores that's why I followed her. I also saw that man," bigla niyang tinuro si Nigel. "He is eating tita Aeickel's lips like an ice cream."

Tila ako natuod sa itinuran na iyon ni Ayler. Alam kong pulang pula na ang mukha ko sa hiya. Ito ang kauna-unahang beses na naranasan ko ang ganitong pagkapahiya sa harap ng pinsan ko.

Nakita ko ang makahulugang tingin sa akin ni Ayce. "It is just your wild imagination. Let's go home Mom. I think Ayler needs a rest."

"Aei, mauuna na kami ha?" Pagpapaalam ni ate Aiyie at akay ang dalawang bata na lumisan.

"Care to explain?" Wika ng lalaki sa tabi ko na alam kong kanina pa naguguluhan sa nangyayari.

"You just saw what it was. Do I still have to explain?" There. I used my real and natural voice.

"So that's it?" Saka nanaman siyang nagsimulang lumakad papalapit sa akin.

"Stop." Walang takot na pagbabanta ko dito.

Huminto naman siya nang tatlong hakbang nalang ang layo namin sa isa't isa. "Tell me, are you gay, transexual or.... a woman?"

"If I tell you the truth, will you believe me?" Sabay ako nakipagsukatan ng tingin sa kanya.

"If you tell me something, it is when I judge if it is the truth or not," sagot naman niya sa akin.

"If you're not ready to hear me out, the let's just go back in the office. But if you want to learn why did I do such things to deceive you, then come with me."

"You admit that you did deceive me?" Saka pa ito ngumiti ng mapait.

"Yes. I won't deny such facts. Now, choose." Wala akong pakielam kung anong iisipin niya sa akin. I'm good with any of his choice. I can still go with any plan I have.

"I'm coming with you."

There. We rode the car all the way to the organization.

"YOU DO KNOW HOW MUCH I TRUST YOU! BUT THIS ONE, I DON'T GET WHAT YOU ARE THINKING." It is my Lola Cassandra. Nigel is at the waiting area.

"I have to tell him how did I end up in his company. The more he knows, the better. We can get information directly from his tongue. No more investigation, lesser things to do." Matigas na saad at pagpapaliwanag ko.

"I built you just right, but I don't know if your heart is as hard as how it should be," makahulugang wika ni Lola. "You have been swayed, Aeickel. You're not the usual you."
