Innocent Gangster's Mafia King

CHAPTER 11: Travis & Xyra

Xyra Eunice POV

"Why does it feel like you are sick, Eun?" Mid asked me. We are in our room waiting for the professor to come in for our Business Management class today.

"Really?" I asked back while staring at my desk.

"Yeah. And parang lutang pag-iisip mo simula kahapon ah. Ano bang nangyari don sa pag-uusap niyo ni Klent (Klent is Maxwell - Maxwell Klent Santiago)?" Mid asked again.

"Ah, iyon ba? Wala naman." Tanging saad ko lamang at yumuko sa desk ko.

"Are you sure? Because it doesn't seem right. I know you too well." Sigunda ni Mid.

"I'll tell you all laer, at lunch... And I have a groom. It's Keil." Tugon ko naman.

Flashback...

"Tsss... too careless!" Reklamo ni Keil.

"Anong careless ka dyan! Careless mo mukha mo! Huhuhu wala na... Wahhh!" I cried out. I can't believe it. Wala na first kiss ko.

"Will you please shup-up?! It's not even my fault, you careless, ugliest woman." Tugon naman niya.

"Aba, hoy! Maka ugliest to, bakit? Gwapong-gwapo kana sa sarili mo?" Tanong ko. Kala niya ha. Nako, gwapo talaga sana... Ay hindi, hindi siya gwapo. Isa siyang malaking ugok na nilalang.

"Bakit? Gwapo naman talaga ako ah." Sagot niya at naglakad papunta sakin. Ano na namang trip neto.

"Grabi! Ang lakas ng hangin. Saang banda dude?" I asked then smirked.

"Tsskkk... di nalang aminin na nagwa-gwapohan ka sakin." Tugon niya.

"Asa! Wala akong aaminin dahil hindi ka naman talaga gwapo." Pagsisinungalingko. Eh sa gwapo naman talaga ang ugok na ito.

"Kung e-kiss uli kita?" Mapanuksong saad niya.

"Edi e-kiss mo..." Biglang sagot ko. OMG!

"Ah ganon! Gusto mo pala ng k-" I cut him off.

"Assuming ka naman! E kiss mo kamo tong kahoy. Dyan kana nga nakakasira ka ng ganda!" I said. Muntikan na ako don ah. Marupok ba naman.

"And where are you going? Sa building na tayo." He grabbed my wrist .

"Gutom na ako Mr. engot Keil." Reklamo ko.

"I'll have someone bring you food. Mas safe tayo kapag sa building na tayo dederetso." Seryusong tugon niya. Sa bagay, tama naman siya. And wow huh! Concern ang lolo niyo.

"And one more thing. You really have to call the engagement off." Keil added.

"Why are you so concern about it, Mr.?" I asked.

"Aside from you're not a good match, he is cruel, Klent, your childhood friend is concern." He answered. Talaga ba? Concern ang mokong na yon. At pano nila iyon nalaman? There is really something with these guys. I'll ask Hanna & Clarise later.

"Hmm I see...Well, I have a condition then." I said and smile meticulously.

"What is it?" He asked.

"Be my groom." I answered straightly.

"Pff! Are you crazy?! Why should I?! In your dreams! Oh well, so may pagnanasa kana sakin?" He responded while nakangisi ng malapad.

"Pagnanasa your face! Kung ayaw mo, edi wag. And don't expect me to call off the engagement." I said sabay act na lalakad paalis. I somehow sense they have something they want to achieve at kailangan nila ako. Got you men!

"Tskkkk! Bakit kailangan ko maging groom mo?" He then asked me, making me stop at napangisi ako bago siya nilingon.

"Simple. I need a groom so there will be no engagement with the Guererro." I answered.

"I don't understand." He said.

"Let's have a civil marriage today. A FAKE one. I'll pay you or do anything I could for you, whatever it is as long as kaya ko, in return of this favor. With that, walang engagement na magaganap or walang Eunice na sisipot bukas ng gabi." Mahabang paliwanag ko.

"Kailangan pa ba yan? Edi wag ka sumipot bukas. Tapos." He said.

"You don't understand." Tugon ko naman.

"Then tell me. Let me understand!" He then blured out. Anyare sa engot na ugok na ito?

"Soon, but now is not the right time. Basta marrying someone else is my only way of breaking off the engagement. And trust me, we did look for someone to be my fake husband but we haven't found any." I said. Nauubos na pasensya ko sa isang to. Humahaba na mga salita ko.

"Maybe there's someth-" I cut him off.

"You know what? Never mind. If you won't agree then fine, no one is forcing you." Saad ko at ginamitan ng nakakaawang tone of voice.

"Tskkkk! Fine! Okay, okay! I'll agree!" He then said. Napangisi nalang ako. Yes!

"Talaga? Di ka napipilitan?" Pag-aalalang tanong ko. Oh my! Not my forte of acting like this.

"As long as you'll help us with something." He responded.

"Sure thing!" I spoke.

End of Flashback...

I still vividly remembered how he become my fake husband yesterday. After going back to our building yesterday, everything went well. Nothing happened. We are all safe. I did not choose to share it with my people yet. Keil & I went out after our class 2pm in the afternoon yesterday. We went to the nearby Municipality to have our civil wedding. A fake one. We signed a contract with terms and conditions. Our fake husband & wife thingy will last for 6 months. Don't ask us how and why.

"Alright class A, attention please!" Professor Margarette said. Andito na prof namin.

"No classess after lunch as we will have our monthly meeting. Tomorrow, everyone shall start finding a company for your internship and by next week, you should pass out the form which has the name of the company you'll be working. In addition, I'd like to thank Ms. Eunice for inviting us at your engagement party tonight. Everyone is invited as our university is the highly anticipated guest. No need to bring any invitation, just show your L.U pass (University ID). Please check out the wall so you'll know where the venue is." Mahabang salaysay ni Professor Margarette.

Naging instant bubuyog mga kaklase namin except my people at ang grupo ni Keil. Bulong dito, bulong doon. At ayon nga, andaming tanong na nila. Ibat-ibang comments.

"Ah eh, Ms. Margarette, hindi na po matu-" Professor cut me off and say, "ayieee! Ikaw huh, Eunice. Ikakasal kana pala sa sole heir ng Guererro."

"No, Ms. I'm not g-" Pinutol na naman ang sasabihin ko sana.

"Wag kanang mahiya. Nasa tamang edad ka na naman." Mapanuksong tugon ni Ms. Margarette, our professor.

"Will you let her finish what she was about to say MS. MARGARETTE?! Because she meant to say, there will be no engagement tonight because hindi na sila magpapakasal." A deadly voice echoed the entire room.

It was Keil. I got goosebumps. Tumahimik ang buong students. And I am in shocked. Lahat ng mga kaibigan/tao ko ay nakatingin sa akin ng seryuso.

"And oh, by the way, she's off limits now. She's married already." Keil added. At dahil sa sinabi niya, lalong nanlaki mga mata ng kaibigan ko maging ang mga kaibigan nya at ako ay napanga-nga.
