Chasing Danger

Chapter 21

Chapter 21

Its been days when Yanna says that Danger is his brother. They are half. Danger is his brother in her father side. Hindi ko akalaing may iba palang anak ang ama niya. Her parents looked so sweet and happy when I saw them for the very first time. Grade seven pa kami noong una ko silang nakita.

But it turns out that Yanna's mother is the mistress. Her mother is the first love of her father but her father married Danger's mother because his parents wanted them to get married for their businesses.

Just like how some romance novel I read , their love story are very painful. How could he marry someone, if he never loves her? How could he be so selfish by owning two ladies at the same time?

“Ate!”

I blinked twice when Yuana's hand are waving in front of me. “Are you okay? “ she asked worriedly.

I smiled a little. “Of course. “

Kinuha ko ang librong nasa aking harapan at kunwaring binabasa ang unang kabanata nito. Yuana sighed and just continue looking for a book to read.

I sighed and put the book I was holding. Hindi ko talaga maiwasang isipin ang tungkol sa pamilya nina Yanna. She's not acting weird. Palagi na silang magkasama ni Danger at nababalewala na kami kung kaya't nagtataka na sina Jones sa inasal nito.

She hated Danger for me. But I guess she chooses Danger over me now.

I don't have any grudges towards her. I know she was coping up with her brother. Pero hindi ko maiwasang magtampo sa kanya.

Simula nang nalaman niya na kapatid niya si Danger. Nag-iba na rin ang pakikitungo nito sa akin.

“Let’s eat na kaya ate? “Yuana appeared in front of me once again.

I nodded. “Puntahan ko lang si Kuya ate,” she added and walked away.

Pinilig ko ang aking ulo. I must erased these thoughts on my head. It's siblings time today,family time sana kung nandito sina Mama pero they are busy working. Sunday na Sunday pero nagtatrabaho pa rin sila.

After a minute. Yuana is walking towards my place holding the left arm of Veron. He looked pissed but he never shoved Yuana's hands in his arms.

“Ang bagal bagal mo kuya!” Yuana said now annoyed.

Veron looked at him. “Ako pa talaga,” he whispered and secretly rolled his eyes.

Napailing na lamang ako at mahinang napatawa. He looks like his gay when he rolled his eyes. Hindi naman ata siya bakla hindi ba? I caught him watching the timeline of his girl classmate, last time. Dali-dali pa nito itong tinago ang kanyang cellphone ngunit huli na ang lahat.

“Sa McDo na lang tayo!” Yuana said happily and run towards the door of McDonald’s.

“She really likes going here,” Veron said and also run towards my sister.

I walked towards them. Nakatingala na si Yuana sa harapan at pumipili na kung anong magiging order. Ganoon din ang ginawa ni Veron.

I looked around and noticed a familiar lady. It was Freya. She was looking at her side with a man in front of her. She was ravishingly beatufil with her dress. Kahit hindi siya mag-ayos, she's really indeed a pretty girl.

Hindi ko makita kung anong itsura ng lalaki dahil nakatalikod ito sa aking gawi. Pero parang pamilyar ang tindig nito sa akin.

Wala sa sariling nagtungo ako sa kanilang gawi. Freya notices me and her face turned pale.

“Hi!” I greeted her. And looked at the man she's with.

My lips parted when I saw Danger,looking at me with those emoitionless eyes. Are the two of them dating?

Palipat-lipat ang tingin ko sa kanilang dalawa. How could this be? I should be happy, right? I should be happy because finally,he let go his feelings towards Olivia.

Pero Bakit ang sakit? Akala ko ba tanggap ko nang makitang may iba siya? Akala ko ba maiintindihan ko? Pero bakit parang nasasaktan pa rin ako?

I smiled fakely. “Enjoy your date!” I said and waved my hand.

It’s better to leave than to see them happy with each other. Ramdam ko ang presensiya ng dalawang kapatid sa likod but I still walked without looking at them.

Manong greeted me and asked why we leave early  but I just smiled once again and open the door at the back for me. Sumunod ang dalawa sa akin at walang tunog na pumasok sa loob ng sasakyan.

Nagtatakang tinignan ni Manong ang dalawa but I saw Yuana just smiled and glanced at my side. I guess they knew what I am feeling right now. They knew that I had some feeling for that guy. I told them that his my crush at kapalit noon ang pagsabi rin nilang dalawa kung sinong gusto nila.

Tahimik lamang ang byahe pauwi kagaya ng nakasanayan. I closed my eyes thinking about the two. Ano na kayang ginagawa nila? Are they making what normal couples do?

I sighed. I should stop thinking this way. I should move on and start my life once again. His not just the guy in this world. Marami sila. There would be a chance that I will fall in love with a guy who loves me more than I love him.

But for now, I will just let him stay my heart. Titiisin ko na muna ang sakit at kapag napagod na ako. I would let him go.

As time passes. I realized that I never chase him just because I wanted him to forgive me. Just because I wanted to be liked by him by showing my efforts towards him. I wanted him to forgive me at the same time looked at me as a woman he loves.

Pero hindi na ata pa darating ang panahon na iyon. Just by the way he looks. His brown eyes are screaming that I am not belong in his world. Those emotionless eyes whenever he saw me is like telling me to stop entering his life, his heart and everything he had.

Chasing him was like chasing my own Death. Hard and painful like his name, Danger.
