Takahashi's Lost Heiress

Chapter 35: Aches

Maxine's pov

They stopped from attacking after Aiko died. But I still don't know what his plan on why did he stop.

But Ray didn't stop from annoying me. He started giving flowers and chocolates na parang nanliligaw sya.

"Okay, let me have your papers and I'll tell the results tomorrow" sabi ni Ms. Beauty.

It was our practical examination for the upcoming examination this month.

"Did you get the hard question?" tanong ni Max.

Ngumiti ako.

"Why? Did you?" tanong ko.

Sumimangot sya.

"Maxii, please tell me naa" he hugged me from the side.

"Okay, okay okay" lumapit ako at binulong sakanya yung sagot.

"Yes! Damn it! I was right" I chuckled to see his reaction.

"Eh ako honeycakes? Am I right?" sabay pakita ng test paper nya.

Tinaasan ko sya ng kilay. And that names he's calling me is annoying.

"Why? Aren't you smart enough to know the answer?" sabay tayo. Kinuha ko yung bag ko pero nahulog yung susi ko.

Kinuha ko yon pero naguntugan kami ni Akiro. Nagkatinginan kami ng ilang segundo. Ganon nalang siguro yun hanggang mamaya kung hindi lang sya umiwas ng tingin at kinuha agad ang susi ko.

Ngumiti ako sakanya. "Thank you" kahit hindi nya ako sinagot.

"So, maglulunch ka ba?" tumingin kami kay Ray ng magtanong sya.

"Hindi ba halata?" tumalikod ako pero kinuha nya ang kamay ko na agad kong binawi.

"So can we have a lunch date?"

"In your dreams"

Kinuha na ni Max ang kamay ko at hinila palabas. Naghintay na din kami dito sa tapat ng room dahil pinapauna pa namin ang mga ibang sections.

"Ano nya si Max? Why does he act like he's her boyfriend"

"Then can we have a dinner date?!" sigaw nya. Napatingin ako sa kanya na may inis.

"Hala, break na sila ni Akiro?"

"Ewan"

"Ano ba talaga ang kailangan mo?" huminga sya ng malalim.

"Ikaw" mahinang sabi nya. Huminga ako ng malalim.

"Omo, wala na ata sila"

"Seryoso ako" he motion his hands na pinipigilan akong umalis.

"Dinner date. Pumayag ka lang, at titigilan na kita"

"I have someone" sabi ko. Nasa likod ng pintuan sina Akiro at alam kong nakikinig sila.

Tinignan ko sya ng ilang segundo. Sabay tingin ulit kay Ray.

"Well, a business dinner? I hope that someone won't get mad" huminga ako ng malalim. Hindi sya maniniwala kung sasabihin kong may asawa na ako. I don't have the ring.

"Bat walang ginagawa si Akiro?"

"pinsan nya si Ray diba?"

"Oo, dapat lang protektahan nya si Maxine"

"Territory nga nya si Max diba?"

"Feel ko, wala na sila"

"Max let's go, wag mo ibuhos panahon mo dyan" sabi ni Kylie.
