Captured and Tainted (SERIE FEROCI 2)

Chapter Five

“Don't shout at me! Ang sakit mo sa tainga!” ganting sigaw ko at napairap kahit hindi niya ako nakikita.

“Ikaw na babae ka, pinapasakit mo talaga lagi ang ulo ko! Bakit hindi mo man lang sinabi sa 'kin na nagde-date kayo ni Direk?! Sinasabi ko sa 'yo, pilitin mo siya na kuhanin kang artista sa movies niya. Magjowa naman pala kayo, e. Bakit hindi niya--” I cut him off immediately.

“No, we're not dating, Cassian. It's just a misunderstanding and don't call me again! I'm tired. Ikaw na ang bahalang umayos ng issue ko ngayon, bye,” I said and instantly ended the call.

Napailing na lang ako at muling tumingin ng comments. Some of them are positive comments but there negative ones too. Buti na lang talaga at sanay na ako sa ganyan. I have a lot of bashers too because of my attitude problem. Madalas talaga ay hindi ko nakokontrol ang sarili ko sa mga bagay bagay lalo na ang pagmamaldita ko.

I just shrugged my shoulders and decided to go out of my room. I suddenly want to eat fruits. Naii-stress ako sa mga nangyayari simula ng guluhin ng Zakarius na 'yon ang buhay ko.

Natigilan ako nang makarinig ng sunod-sunod na putok ng baril sa living room. I immediately rushed to the living room to see what's happening. Is there a thief again or what?

My forehead creased when I saw Zakarius standing on the couch, sahig ang pinapuputukan niya ng baril. Ano'ng nangyayari sa lalaking 'to?

“Zakarius!” I shouted and walk to his direction. He didn't bother to look at me and continued firing on the floor with his gun. What the hell is his problem?!

Medyo lumayo ako sa pwesto niya dahil baka tamaan pa ako ng bala niya. I sighed and closed my eyes tightly. I took a deep breath to prepare myself.

“Zakarius ‘fucking’ Cavalcante! What the fuck are you doing?!” I shouted and gave him a deadly stare.

Natigilan naman si Zakarius sa pagbaril sa sahig at napatingin sa 'kin.

“Don't bother me, there's a cockroach,” he said and pointed the floor.

My lips parted and blinked thrice with his remark. I took a deep breath once again to calm myself. Is he fucking serious?!

“You're being like that... because of a cockroach?” I asked in disbelief.

Hindi niya ako pinansin at muling pinaputukan ang sahig. Napatili ako at napatakip sa tainga ko dahil sa gulat.

“Zakarius! Stop! Stop it!” I shouted and stomped my feet on the floor.

Zakarius stopped firing his gun and sighed. I immediately ran to his direction and look for the cockroach. Napailing na lang ako nang makita ang kawawang ipis sa ilalim ng mini table.

“Shoo, go away, run for your life,” I murmured and gently kicked the cockroach. Agad namang tumakbo ang ipis.

“That fucking cockroach,” Zakarius murmured and he was about to point his gun at it but I immediately stopped him.

“For heaven's sake Zakarius! Ipis lang 'yan! Wala ka ngang pakialam sa ahas, e. Ipis lang 'yan, hindi ka naman kakainin nang buo niyan!” naiinis na sabi ko at tiningnan siya nang masama.

I held Zakarius' hand and pulled him down from the couch. Napakagat ako sa ibabang labi ko nang mapagtantong nasa itaas pa talaga siya ng couch habang binabaril ang kawawang ipis.

“Takot ka ba sa ipis?” natatawang tanong ko nang makababa na siya sa couch.

“I'm not afraid of anything, but cockroaches are filthy. I hate them,” he said in a cold tone and put his gone back in his pocket. I bit my lower lip again to stop myself from laughing.
