Play Paper Love by Allie X

I run as fast as I could. Wala na 'kong pakialam kung pinag titinginan ako ng ibang estudyante.
"Damn it! " natataranta ako sa pagbubukas ng pinto ng aking sasakyan at syaka ko lang naalala na automatic nga pala iyon. Stupid.
I drive as fast as I could. I don't give a damn with everyone who cursed me to hell for breaking the traffic rules, ang gusto ko lang ay maibalik ang akin. At hindi pwedeng mabasa ni Dos ang mga pangalan na nandun, because once he found out those people's name then that's the start of my doom. At hindi yun maaari.

Wala pang 10 minuto at narating ko agad ang mansyon ng mga Reeve at agad kong pinaharurot ang sasakyan ko papasok sa gate. Guards knew my car so I didn't need to beg them just to let me drove my car inside. And I won't beg either. Mas pipiliin ko pang sirain ang gate nila upang makapasok.
Isinalpak ko ang pinto ng aking kotse at nag martya papasok sa mansyon at hindi na 'ko nag taka nang maabutan ko si Dos na nakaupo sa ikalawang tungtunggan ng hagdan habang naka ngisi na para bang alam na alam na nyang darating ako.
"Give it back to me. " I tried to look straight in to his hazel eyes. But it's too deep. Pakiramdam ko ay malulunod ako.
"You're too calm. Where's my psycho? " he teased and my jaw clenched. He like this kind of games with me. And this isn't good, because it's a torture for me.
"Give me my ace. That's not yours. "
"But I'm your boss. "
"Conrad is my boss. " sambit ko. Hindi ko alam kung namamalikmata ba ako pero nakita ko ang pag dilim ng ekspresyon nya, ngunit agad din naman iyong nawala at napilitan ng mapang asar nyang ngisi.
"You're working for Costa Sacra, and I'm the boss, Rize. " he stood up and tossed my ace on the air. Agad ko naman iyong sinalo at matalim syang tinignan.
"Conrad is the Costa— "
"Sad to say, your love is moved to Reeve Empire. " he teased and that makes my jaw clenched even more.
Ano ba talagang gusto nya? I wanted to take a grip of myself, but he's just pulling all the strings that I have. Hindi ako pwedeng magtagal rito lalo na pag kasama sya.
"He's not my love and please, quit fooling around. Wala akong panahon para makipag laro sayo. " I said as I turn to around to make my way back to my car, pero naramdaman ko nalang ang pamilyar na kamay na nakahawak sa pulsuhan ko at agad ako nung hinigit pabalik.
He wasn't gentle and so my stupid foot just slip and before I could land on the ground, I felt his arms wrapped around my waist.
At kung isang ordinaryong babae lang ako, kikiligin sana ako sa ginawa nya. But I knew Dos for almost 2 years and this is one of his flirty tricks.
"Get off. " kalmadong utos ko at agad ko syang tinulak bago pa nya 'ko bitawan.
I heard him chuckle as I continue to check my ace list. Wala namang nabawas na pangalan dun at wala rin namang nadagdag. I sigh of relief. Matino parin naman pala sya kahit papaano.
"Rae Collins. " muli kong ibinalik ang atensyon ko sa kanya nang banggitin nya ang pangalan ko. My heart started to throb as he slowly walks towards me. This strange feelings... Pakiramdam ko ay naranasan ko na rin ito noon. It feels so familiar and I hate it. Para akong mawawala sa katinuan.
"I'm Rize. "
"But you're still not my psycho slayer. " his voice gave me shivers as he gently pull my chin up.
I've never been this threatened before. No one can took the threatened-face out of me... but this damned Ephraim Reeve just took it out.
And it's bad.
"When will you come back to me... Rize? "
