Chapter 10
Zoe’s POV
I was in the garden I was having a video call to Shane, nakibalita na din ako sa manga nag yayari sa pilipinas. Habang nag uusap kami ni shane I can feel that someone is looking at me hindi ko lang malaman kung sino since naka tingin sakin ang isang maid at isang bodyguard. Tsk baka na prapraning lang ako.
“Zoe! Hoy ayos ka lang?” Tanong ni Shane
“ahh… Oo ayos lang naman kaso namimis ko na kayo” malungkot kong sabi sa kanya
“Awww…. Miss na din kita makulit kong bestfriend.” Malungkot din nyang sabi.
“Okay, Zoe wag kang nega… nakakainis ka ang saya-saya nag usapan natin tapos nagnenega ka dyan”
Natawa na lang ako sa sinabi nya.
Ohh how I love this girl.
Matapos ang pag uusap naming ni Shane I check my e-mail and the e-mail address caught my attention.
“Rei Yamaguchi” mahina kong sambit “Parang familiar ang pangalan nato…. Hmmmmm….” I was
thinking hard and there was a memory that pop up on my head there was a time na nabully Shane dahil sa isang student.
“Rei!!!” napalakas ang sabi ko dahil na alala ko na.
I click the Email it was a letter and I read it.
Hi Ms. Zoe Yasmin Gonzales,
I hope you still remember me, ohh well If you don’t remember me I can introduce my self again, I’m Rei Yamaguchi, we go to the same school back in the Philippines. I want to apologize I wasn’t able to say goodbye after the graduation of the senior because I have to go back to US to handle our family business. I just want to ask if how are and also your friend Shane.
That’s all I want to know and I will understand if you will not reply on this E-mail.
Your friend,
Rei Yamaguchi
I was smiling while I was reading the e-mail.
I was about to type my reply but I the maid called me for dinner.
“Miss Zoe, its time for dinner”
“Ohh… okay!” and I stand up and close my laptop and gave it to her
“Kindly put it in my room. Thank you” I told her and she just smile.
What the hell!!! “Anong nangyari sayo? Binugbog kaba ng tatay mo?” tanong ko sa lalaking naka upo sa lamesa na basa ang buhok, putok ang labi at may mga pasa sa ibang parte ng mukha may naramdaman akong pag alala sa kanya.
“No” maikling sagot nya na kina inis ko.
“Sasuke Tanaka! Look at me and tell me What. The. Hell. Happened. To. You.” Inisa-isa ko talaga ang pag bigkas sa huli kong sinabi dahil na din sa inis ko sa kanya. Nag alala lang naman ako.
Bigla nanman syang na pa buntong hininga at pinag masdan ko lang sya at nag hihintay sa isasagot nya.
Nabigla naman ako ng tumingin sya sakin hindi ako umiwas ng tingin at nakipag titigan ako sa kanya. Tumaas ang kilay ko sa kanya sign that he needs to answer.
“I…. I just have a small problem and I just need to vent out” What the!!! Vent out? Vent out pa ba yan?! Ehh halos ma puno ng pasa ang mukha nya at putok ang labi!
“After we eat, go to my room.” Walang gana kong sabi sa kanya at umupo na ako at kumain habang sya ay naka tingin parin sakin.
“Why would you want me to go to your room?” taking tanong nya pero hindi parin sya kumakain.
“I’ll be putting medicine on your face” na gulat sya sa sagot ko habang ako naman ay nasasaktan para sa mukha nya.
“You don’t need to do that Zoe, I’ll fix my self after we ate.” Sabi nya sabay kuha ng kanyang chopsticks at kuha ng grilled fish.
“Sasuke,I’ll help you.” With a finality on voice he just look at me and continue eating.
Tahimik na kaming kumain at pag ka tapos pumunta na ako sa room to get the first aid kit sa C.R. at nag ready na din ko. Hindi katagalan may kumatok na sa aking pinto at niluwa non si Sasuke, I pointed the chair kung saan sya uupo.
Pag ka upo nya kinuha ko na ang antisiptec at nilinisan ang mga sugat nya nilaygan ko na rin ng cream ang mga pasa nya sa mukha.
“Zoe, What if I told you that the Tanaka Clan is one of the Yakuza?” bigla syang nag salita at na tigilan ako sa tanong nya at hindi ako maka sagot.
“What if I told you I killed and I will kill in the future for the safety of my family and for my love, will you be scared of me?” nakayukong tanong nya, hindi ko alam kung anong isasagot ko kaya tumahimik na lang ako. Pag katapos ko syang gamutin I called him.
“Sasuke,” tumingin naman sya sakin.
“for your question a while ago. I…. If your family is one of the Yakuza clan here in Japan. I don’t have a problem on that.. and for your next question If I was in your shoes I would ready to kill just to protect the love of my life and my family.” He just look at me.
“Zoe, I love you” detesong sabi nya. Di ko alam kung anong hitsura ko ngayon pero ang lakas ng kabog ng dibdib ko. s**t!!! Did he just confess to me?
He moved and our body and face is close very close.
“I’ll kiss you” pag papaalam nya at wala sa sariling tumango ako and our lips touch.
At first it was a slow kiss like his was kissing a fragile lips I was responding to his kisses and I felt his tongue licking my lips begging for an entrance and without fail I accepted his invitation.
Nag hiwalay kami dahil pareho na kaming na uubusan ng hangin he put his forehead on to mine and we looked on each others eyes.
“I love you, the first time I saw you during your first year high school, I like that your feisty, you know how to fight back, your sweet and caring to your family and to your only bestfriend, I love to see you pissed becase your pouting your beautiful lips and when your brows arch it means that your serious.”
He just told me why he loves me but I just looked him in the eyes because I don’t know what to say to him.
“I will not ask for your reply. I just want you to know how I feel about you.” He said. I didn’t say anything, I incircle my arms around his neck and kiss him to let him feel what I can’t say. He kissed me back and we share a sweet moment only me and him and how we feel each other.
After the kiss we are on the bed cuddling we are savouring this little moment of ours just the two of us, yung walang inaalalang gulo o problema.
“Hey, it’s already 1:30 in the morning, I should go back to my room” bigla nyang sabi.
“Hmmm…” I heard him chuckles
“Is that a yes or a no?” tanong nya
“Ikaw, kung aalis kana…” sabi ko na ikinatawa nya at gumalaw sya sa pagkakahiga na ikinapikit ko.
“If I were to ask, I don’t want to leave but I still have to do some business Zoe” he said and sit on my bed, he place a kiss on my forehead and kiss me on my lips not a smuck but a fierce kiss and I responded with the same intensity, he broke first on our kiss.
“I have to go yome.” He said with a smile.
“Yome?” nakakunot nuong tanong ko sa kanya and he stand up and walk to the door. I reached my phone and seach what yome means and I was shock what it means
“Wifey or bride” mahina kong sabi at binagsak ang katawan ko sa kama.
“Is this really happening to me and Sasuke? Are we in a relationship? Like boyfriend and girlfriend?” wala sa sarili kong tanong. Arghhhhh………… kainis bakit hindi ako nag tanong kanina kung ano kami? Ahhhh bahala na si batman basta alam naming na we like each other.
Hindi ko namalayan na naka tulog na ako sa kakaisip at naka ngiti.
Enjoy Reading :)
