KABANATA 25

HANGING out with Zamiel was the worst today, Ridge could swear. After he had searched for materials, his best friend insisted going out to the movies. As if nothing happened earlier and he was not upset.

He did not even like going to the movies but then, Zamiel also told him that he would pay for the tickets. Hence, he was left with no other choice.

Zamiel then gave him the privilege to pick a movie but as he was really not in the mood—after conversing regarding their own wedding and stuff—he refused, and said: "Nah, I don't really like the trailers I saw from all these movies. You pick one."

And he won't even deny that he had hoped Zamiel would pick the signal that he does not want to stay out late.

But who is he even kidding? Zamiel is—and will always be—dense.

Anyway, it was all in the past despite that it had only been hours since they watched a chick flick movie—which Ridge despised but okay, he has no rights to complain, plus! He slept throughout the movie, anyway.

And right now, he just had parked in front of the Chastain's house, with Zamiel being silent and he, still feeling exhausted.

Despite that, Zamiel did not budge from his place, and Ridge noticed how his best friend slightly shifted on his seat; eyes glancing on their gate outside and on the window shield which made him… confused?

Anong problema nito?

"Oy," tawag niya rito nang panay pa rin ang tingin nito sa gate nila, "nasa tapat na tayo ng bahay niyo."

Hindi kaya nakalimutan nitong dito ito nakatira? O hindi kaya, gusto na naman nitong makitulog sa kanila kaya ito ganito?

Kung anumang gusto nito, dapat e kanina pa magsalita para malaman niya kaagad.

"Nagpapabebe ka ba?" Pang-aasar niya nang hindi talaga kumilos si Zamiel.

It was then when the man scoffed.

"Zamiel?" Tawag niya ulit dito.

At doon palang din siya sinagot ng binata. "Shut up. I know."

O, e ano pang gusto nito? Imbes na sagutin at tanungin si Zamiel, napailing nalang siya at tumanaw sa malayo.

Setting his negative thoughts aside, maybe Zamiel just wanted to take his time and rest. Though, it may seem impossible because his body movements says otherwise.

Bahala na. Lalabas din naman si Zamiel kung handa na ito. Kailangan lang niya na habaan ang pasensya niya at maghintay.

"Ridge," Zamiel called, voice raspy that it made Ridge tense.

Nang pasadahan niya ng tingin ang binata, mukhang maging ito, nagulat sa kinalabasan ng sariling boses. Lalo na at nag-iwas ito sandali ng tingin bago tumikhim.

Bakit ganoon boses niya? Napaano?

"Ridge," ulit ni Zamiel. Noon, mas maayos na ang pagkakabanggit nito sa pangalan niya.

Doon palang siya kumalma.

Mataman niyang tinitigan si Zamiel, hinihintay kung anong sasabihin nito. Samantalang ang binata naman, ilang beses na nagpabalik balik ng tingin sa labas at sa kanya; ilang beses na ibubuka ang bibig pero hindi naman magsasalita.

At naiinip na siya. Magtatanong na ba siya kung anong kailangan nito?

"Ridge, can you like…" Zamiel trailed off and Ridge can swear that he saw how flushed this man is, "can you move closer?"
