Cane Sam Lee
KATATAPOS lang nilang kumain, nang inaya siya ni France sa isang book store.
May nakita siyang hilera ng shelf na puno ng w*****d books. Napangiti siya at mabilis na lumapit doon. Kumuha siya ng lima at dinala na iyon sa counter. Pagkatapos niyang bayaran ang mga iyon ay agad niyang hinanap si France.
"Where the h*ll is she?" Tanong niya sa kanyang sarili. Ilang minuto na siyang paikot-ikot sa bookstore pero hindi niya parin nakita ni anino ng kanyang best friend.
Kaya naman napag desisyonan niya nalang na lumabas sa bookstore at naglibot sa mall. Agad niya namang nakita si France.
"Cane, I've been looking for you." Anito.
"San ka ba nanggaling?" Aniya.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I just went shopping for some new clothes."
"Sana naman nagsabi ka sakin."
Palabas na sila sa mall nang may masalubong silang grupo ng mga kalalakihan.
"Oh. My. Gosh."
"What's wrong France?"
"They are incredibly good-looking."
She sighed. "Here we go again." And rolled her eyes.
"Let's head over there, Cane." Ungot nito.
Natapik niya nalang ang kanyang noo. "Where are we heading? And why are we trailing after them?" Ngunit hindi siya nito pinansin, kaya naman sumunod nalang siya dito.
"Ang gwapo talaga nila sa malapitan." Tili nito. "Cane, oh my gosh! The guy with the red hair is totally checking me out." Kinikilig nitong sabi.
Sa totoo lang ay wala naman siyang pakealam sa mga lalake. For her, men can be a real source of trouble. They bring headaches, and sometimes, even worse, a broken heart.
But she got curious, kaya naman nilingon niya ang lalaking tinutukoy nito. Her jaw literally dropped. This man was a vision, a Greek god in human form. His red-dyed hair, crimson lips, and piercing gray eyes combined to form a face that was absolutely perfect. Napabaling siya kay France ng tumikhim ito.
"Told yah, he's handsome." Pagmamalaki nito sakanya.
"Okay, he's good-looking, I'll give you that. But he definitely has that bad boy vibe." Ipinilig niya ang kanyang ulo at nagpatuloy nalang siya sa paglalakad.
Marionne's POV
Habang naglalakad sila ay may nasalubong silang dalawang babae. He usually don't care pero parang may kung anong nag udyok sakanyang tumingin sa mga ito. At umawang ang kanyang mga labi ng makita niya ang kabuuan ng isa, she's freakin' beautiful like a model. But he was mesmerized nung makita niya ang mukha ng kasama nito. She looks like a goddess. Her hair was dyed with rich brown color, and she had heart-shaped red lips and a pointed nose. She smelled amazing, but what he liked most were her amber eyes. He felt like he was hypnotized by them. She had a curvaceous figure that made a man's mouth water. In short she's hot as h*ll.
"What the h*ck cous, bakit ka ba nakatulala diyan?" Tanong ni Rupert na nagpabalik sakanya sa kasalukuyan.
Rupert is one of his cousins, at ito lang ang tanging kasundo niya sa lahat. Nakiusyoso na rin ng kanyang mga kasama, at tumingin sa direksyon ng dalawang babae.
"Wow, they're so attractive. Especially that girl with brown hair." Nakangising sabi ni Prince
Prince is his best friend. Para na silang magkapatid ng kaibigan. And this person is definitely a womanizer.
"Nah, she's not that beautiful." Tanggi niya.
"So kaya naman pala natulala ka, kase hindi maganda." Rupert said in a sarcastic tone.
"I'm serious cous." Aniya.
"Ok if you say so."
"So, you're really not interested in her, right bud?" Ani Prince.
"Why do you ask?" Aniya.
"Uhm....nothing."
"Oh really? Come on, bud, I know you. You like her, don't you?" He smirked.
"No, of course not." Anito.
"Uh-huh."
"Whatever bud."
He shrugged and patted the shoulder of his best friend. "Yeah, buddy, good call. I'm glad you made that decision. I don't want us to be enemies." Sabat ng munting tinig sa kanyang isip.
Napahinto siya sa pag-iisip ng makarating sila sa Ice cream store.
"Are they following us?" Nakakunot noong tanong ni Rupert.
"Maybe they are, sa gwapo kong toh." Prince.
"Tsk, you're so boastful bud." Aniya.
"No bud I'm just telling the truth." Nakangising sabi nito.
He frowned. "Kahit kailan talaga napaka hangin nito."
"Just so you know, buddy, I'm way more handsome than you. Probably the most handsome sa ating tatlo." He said while smirking.
"HAHA...you're so funny bud." Prince said in a sarcastic tone.
"Please stop, both of you, naririndi na ako sainyo. Boasts." Sabat ni Rupert.
He just rolled his eyes, At bumaling sa direksyon ng babaeng may brown na buhok. He saw her gazing at him. Kaya naman tumaas ang sulok ng kanyang labi.
Cane's POV
Napakunot ang noo, ni Cane ng makitang nakataas ang sulok ng labi ni Marionne. "What's going on in that head of yours." Tanong ng kanyang isip, napataas nalang siya ng kilay ng umiwas ito ng tingin, at lihim na napatawa.
"Hey Cane sasabay ka na ba sakin?" Tanong ni France.
"Where are you going?"
"Home, my mom called."
"Oh, sige mauna ka na. I'll buy something pa ehh."
"Ok, bye best friend. See you on Monday." France smiled and she smiled back to her.
Naiwan siyang mag isa at akmang aalis na siya ng may pumigil sakanya. And she gasped in shock.
"Let me go Mr." Pinilit niyang itago ang nadaramang tensyon at pagkailang.
"I noticed you were looking at me earlier." Anito.
"What are you talking about?" maang niyang tanong at napataas pa ang kanyang kilay.
"Stop lying to me. I already know I'm handsome, so there's no need to deny it." Then he smirked.
"Tsk, so boastful. Bagyong Ginger man, signal number 6. Malakas na hangin, maraming dalang ulan na may pag kulog at pag kidlat, na maaring magdulot ng pagbaha at pagguho ng lupa." She said in sarcastic tone.
Pinaningkitan siya nito ng mga mata, then he asked. "Did you just call me ginger man?" Anito na parang hindi makapaniwala.
"Yeah you heard it right, ginger man." Ipiniksi niya ang kanyang braso at mabilis na umalis.
