(Malia POV)
"Hey Klaude ang tagal mo naman, saan ka galing? "
"Isaac's office sorry for waiting me. Lets eat. "
Tahimik lang kaming kumakain ni Klaude. Parang may gusto siyang sabihin na hindi niya masabi sabi. Is he hiding something from me too like Keith? Klaude is really familiar for me.
Nakita ko na siya noon pa pero di ko lang matandaan kung saan at kailan.
...............
Pagkatapos kumain. Tahimik lang si Klaude habang tinicheck ang temperature.
"36.8 ℃. Mabuti naman at ok na. "
"Salamat talaga Klaude. "
Tinitigan niya ako. I'm fluster. Ang lapit kasi niya at ang bango ni Klaude. I don't know why my knees are shaking because of his smell.
"Eh ahmp Klaude what's wrong? "
"If angels are living with us, they exactly look like you. "He said seriously.
"You are really sexy and pretty. I'm happy that you are here with me. "He added and I blushed.
"Ah eh me too, me too. "
"The moment I saw you at the limelight, you really caught my eyes and heart then and I start looking for you among the crowd. "
That's exactly what I'm doing too.
"Well, ahmp I see. "I feel realy uncomfortable.
With this handsome infront of me, that so close and easy to touch.
"I like your smiles even your eyes telling that you are hurt and keep enduring the pain inside you. The first time I saw you smile my heart fill with joy, when I saw your face sadden it really brokes my heart, so I promised myself to make you happy because I don't want to see your face in pain and sadness. "
I can't breath.
Silence.......... Silence......
Kanina pa nakatitig saakin si Klaude. I don't know why he is acting like this.
"What's wrong? What are you thinking? "
Nanlaki ang mata ko nang biglang halikan ako ni Klaude. Napasandal ako sa mesa at dahang dahang pumikit ang mga mata ko.
He is kissing me, Klaude is kissing me.
"I like you. I really do like you Mel. "He said and grip my shoulder.
Yumuko ako. "But we haven't known each other that long. "
"Since I saw you, I fell inloved with you. Probably a love at first sight. I was so happy when you kissed me. When we talk, we laugh, we eat together are the great things for me. Being with you I feel great. "He said and hug me.
"Napakasaya ko dahil sayo. Ngayon lang ako nakaramdam ng ganito, ayaw kong makita kang malungkot. Pero may mga bagay na kailangan mong malaman kahit alam kung malungkot at masasaktan ka. "He added and hug me tighter.
"I know, I know it Klaude. "
"I want you to know that,
Hinalikan ko siya.
"You already talk to much. Enough Klaude, I like you too. "
Yumuko siya.
"I love you Mel. "
"Err I love you too Klaude. "
He is staring me again.
"What now? "
"It just ahmp I feel like , you know amph hesitant I can't calm my self because of your hair and your face is too close. "
"Naah kasi ang lapit mo. "
Nagtinginan kami at nagtawanan nalang, ang awkward na parang weird haha. Ganun ba talaga paginlove?
"So are we? "
"Are we what? "He asked.
"Lovers? "
Bago pa man siya nakasagot tumunog na ang phone ko.
... Keith is calling...
"Klaude need to get this. "
Tumango lang si Klaude kaya tumayo na ako at naglakad papunta sa bintana.
"Hello? "
"Mel where are you? "
"I'm somewhere Keith, why? "
"Nasa bahay mo ako. I have something for you. I'll wait you here. "He said.
"Eh but.
Tot tot tot. Line cut.
He have something for me? Baka about my dad's death?
Oh noh.
"Klaude I need to go, sorry. And thankyou so much. "
"Sino yung tumawag? "
"Si Keith. "Sagot ko ayos ang sarili.
"He is really important to you huh. "
Nilingon ko si Klaude.
I don't have time to explain.
"Forgive my departure, see ya. "
Tumakbo na ako palabas ng Auberge at pumara ng taxi.
Pagdating ko sa bahay nadatnan kong nakasandal si Keith sa gate.
"Keith!!!!! "
Tumakbo na ako papunta sa kanya at niyakap niya ako.
"Look what I got for you. "Turo ni Keith sa nakarapadang napakagandang kulay violet na kotse.
"Oh my? "
"Para sayo yan. Diba violet ang favorite color mo? I bought it for you. "
"Really? But you don't have to do that. "
"But I want to. The key,here, try it. "
Tinulak na ako papasok ni Keith sa napakagandang kotse.
He smile at me at me at hiningaan ang bintana at nagdrawing ng puso. Haha abnormal talaga.
Dinrive ko ang kotse palibot at pagbalik ko nadatnan ko si Gela at Mharl masayang kausap si Keith.
Mukhang umayos na si Gela ah.
"Dahil may bagong kotse na si Mel magcelebrate tayo, dahil di na magiingay ang baby mo haha. "Ani Gela.
"You're so rude, why you laugh so much. "Ani Mharl.
"Naaah let's get inside. "
Nagunahan na si Gela at Mharl sa loob ng bahay.
"Keith thankyou. "
"Wala yun, maliit na bagay. "He said at naglakad na papasok. Si Klaude at Keith napakabait saakin. Dami kong utang sakanila.
Naginuman na kaming apat. Well hindi ko mahindi an si Gela ee at minsan lang naman.
Nagvibrate ang phone ko.
One message.
From: Klaude
Goodnight Mel, I miss you already. I love you. Sooo much.
.. Napangiti ako sa text niya.
Reply: I miss you too. And I love you more. Goodnight.
He loves me, I love him.
"Mel come here please help me. "Tawag ni Gel sa kitchen.
Dali dali akong tumakbo papunta sakanya kaya natapilok ako at napayakap kay Keith.
"Sorry Eh. "
"Careful. "
"Yeah thankyou. "
Pinuntahan ko na si Gela.
"What is it Gel? "
"Is Keith courting you? "
"What, I think no, why? "
"He gave you an expensive car and the way he looks at you is something. "
"Like the way Mharl looked at you. "
"Stop kidding. "
"I'm not kidding. Umamin na si Klaude saakin. "
"Anung sabi? Mahal niya daw ako. "
"Mahal mo ba siya? "
"I think yes. "
"Really, how about Keith? "
"What about him? "
"He likes you. "
"That's imposible Gel. "
"No its not, ofcourse. "
Umalis na si Gela papuntang sala dala ang yelo.
"You love him? "Napalingon ako.Mukhang kanina pa siya sa likod namin ni Gel.
"Keith I. "s**t bakit parang nasasaktan siya.
"Kayo na ba? "
"Ah eh, hindi pa, siguro ahmp, hindi ko alam. "
"Maybe this is the right time to tell you who really Klaude is. "
"What? "
