Chapter 5
Nagulat ako ng may malakas na brasong humila sakin paharap. Kaagad bumungad sakin ang galit na mukha ni Castielle. Pulang-pula ang kaniyang mukha even his ear.
"What the f**k is your problem, Miss?" galit na sinabi ni Castielle like he doesn't know me.
I smirked at hindi makapaniwalang tumingin sa kaniya. Miss? So now he's acting like he doesn't know me? Ha! Oo nga naman, tapos na siya sa paghihiganti niya sakin, why bother remember my existence?
"Look, Miss. If you want me you could have just wait for me to finis—"
I cut him off, "Wow! Like I want that!" I hissed and grimaced. How disgusting!
He smirked ang galit kaninang ekspresyon niya'y biglang nawala at napalitan ng nakakalokong ngiti. Of course, there goes again his infamous flirty smile!
He slouch a bit para pantayan ang lebel ko, "Then what do you want, baby? Tell me, because I'm having a really hard boner right now and that's your fault..." malambing niyang sinabi at humakbang palapit sakin kaya napaatras ako.
Titig na titig siya sakin like he was inspecting all the edges of my face. Napalunok ako ng bumaba ang tingin niya sa labi ko and f**k why did I f*****g bit my lips? Damn me!
And damn him! Wala bang filter ang bibig niya? Is it normal for him to admit he's having a boner!? Damn this f**k boy.
He smirked and he was about to say something when someone called him. Lucky me!
"Castielle! What's the meaning of this?" mariing tanong ng babaeng nakasuot ng smexy blue violet dress na kakalabas lang ng banyo.
Umatras si Castielle sakin so I thought makakatakas nako pero nagulat ako ng lumipat siya sa kabilang gilid ko at ipinulupot ang kaniyang kamay sa aking bewang. I cringe. What the f**k?
The sexy girl face was confused by looking at us. I tried to get away with his arm wrapped around my waist but he was too strong. Kaya ang tanging nagawa ko ay samaan siya ng tingin.
He looked at the girl with a smile. His innocent facade like he didn't do such thing! f*****g bastard! Parang kanina lang at pinagsasawaan niya ang babae.
"Sorry, Lia. I have to deal with this girl first, I'll text you when I'm free..." Castielle simply said, like parang walang nangyaring makamundo sa kanila sa loob ng cubicle.
Oh, God! Spare his soul to hell—oh wait! Nevermind! He deserve to rot in hell anyway.
Nanlaki ang mata ng babae at umawang ang bibig. She was about to say something but she stop and glared at me.
It looks like she realized that this guy was Master Casanova at wala siyang magagawa kung ayawan na siya nito.
"No, thanks, jerk!" mariin nitong sinabi bago umalis and honestly I saw how hurt she was pinipigilan niya lang ang sarili niya.
I looked at Castielle and he only shrugged and faced me again. What the hell? Wala lang 'yun sa kaniya? That woman was hurt! f**k!
Kaagad 'kong inalis ang kamay ni Castielle na nakapulupot sakin and thank God he did pero nagulat naman ako ng mahina niya akong itinulak sa pader.
I was about to shout at him when he cornered me with his arms kaya ngayon ay sobrang lapit niya na sakin. I shifted my head to the side dahil pakiramdam ko mahahalikan niya ko kapag humarap ako sa kaniya.
I tried to push him with all my strength but he's too powerful. "Pwede ba! Lumayo ka nga!" I said while trying my luck to push him even more ngunit mas lalo lang niyang idiniin ang sarili sakin.
I can even feel his breath in my neck. Sinilip ko siya at naabutang nakaawang ang kaniyang bibig habang titig na titig sa akin. Bumilis ang t***k ng puso ko. Nakaramdam kaagad ako ng kung anong elekstrisidad na kailan man di ko pa nararamdaman sa iba!
Ganito ba talaga ang pakiramdam kapag sobrang lapit sayo ng taong kinaiinisan mo!? If yes, now I know and that explain how my heart beat crazily!
"I won't let you get away with what you did. Binitin mo nanaman ako..." he whispered huskily right to my sensitive ear.
Pakiramdam ko'y nakiliti ako sa ginawa niya. Sinandya niya pang iparamdam sakin ang mainit niyang hininga and boy his Calvin Klein perfume is giving me more weird feelings.
"Get off me, f**k boy!" angil ko trying to look at his damn face kahit maduduling lang ako.
Castielle chuckled of what I've said. "Is that how you call me now? I thought I was your Caspian, Susan..." he said while smiling.
Nanlaki ang mata ko. That Narnia thing again and with that I remember Ynesa telling me he has a crush on me. Kabaliwan! Lahat naman ng babae gusto niya—gusto niyang ikama. Tss!
"For your information, Caspian isn't Susan's. He's a kid!" asik ko. Of course from the book, Caspian is a kid!
Goodness, Nari! Why would you answer him? Nakalimutan mo na ba ang atraso ng lalakeng to sayo?
He chuckled cutely.
Fuck? Did I just called it cute? It's more like irritating.
"Well I don't care. 19 man siya o 20. Wala akong pakialam..." he said while only looking at me like he meant something by it. f**k I am 19 and he's 18.
Napalunok ako at nag-iwas ng tingin. "Lahat naman kasi pinapatulan mo. Kahit siguro minorde—"
Hindi ko na patapos ang sasabihin ko dahil umangat ang kamay niya papunta sa mukha ko. He gently caressed my cheeks with his knuckles.
Kaagad akong umiwas. Damn his f*****g moves! Agad ko siyang tinulak and luckily he was caught off guard kaya hindi niya ako naikulong muli ng kaniyang kamay at sa wakas ay nakawala.
"Akala mo ba hindi ko alam ang ginawa mo? Ano? Are you happy now b-because finally Staven and I are over?" asik ko sa kaniya at sinamaan siya ng tingin.
Kumunot ang noo niya but then his lips twitched. He crossed his arms while leaning his head and his one foot in the wall like a model while looking at me.
"Are you now admitting that it was you that night, baby?" he said while giving me an amused smile.
Bumuntong hininga muna ako bago siya sagutin. It's no use to deny it. "Fine! I admit it! Alam ko namang alam mo! That's why you sent those damn pictures of us to Staven para paghiwala—"
"Woah, woah, woah baby. I don't know what you're talking about and for the record, you're single since birth." he said as he walk towards me again with a smug smile.
Kumunot ang noo ko. From the looks of his face para nagsasabi siya ng totoo but who knows that he's just pretending that he didn't know? After all, he wanted revenge.
Hindi ako nakasagot sa kaniya. Nagulat ako sa biglang pagseryoso ng mukha ni Castielle. "And the fact that you told me that night that you have a boyfriend. You know it f*****g sucks." he said.
"Eh ano naman ngayon? Good thing I didn't let you f**k me. You're a f*****g f**k boy!" mariing sinabi ko na ikinagulat niya but he didn't looked offended sa halip ay mukhang namangha pa.
He smirked and looked at my lips as he bit his own. Kung ibang lalake ang gagawa noon ay parang nakakadiring tignan but when he did it? He looks so damn hot but hell I won't fell from his trap.
"Sumaya ba ang ego mo dahil wala na kami!?" mariing tanong ko.
His brows furrowed. Biglang nagdilim ang ekspresyon niya. "Do you love him that much? Dapat nga'y magpasalamat ka pa dahil wala na kayo nung lalakeng 'yun. For your info baby, matagal kana niyang niloloko." he simply said and arched his one brow.
Nanlaki ang mata ko sa sinabi niya. P-Paano niya nalaman ang tungkol roon?
"So you finally admit that it was you who sent those—"
"Bullshit. It wasn't me, okay? Why will I f*****g do that?" takang tanong niya. Now his voice is mad.
Napalunok ako. "B-Because you want to avenge me," sagot ko.
Tumaas ang kilay niya at agad kumunot ang noo, "Avenge? Why the f**k will I do that?"
"Because I left you that night at naapakan ko ang ego mo." ba't ba ang dami niyang tanong?
Nagulat ako ng bigla siyang tumawa like I told him a very funny joke.
"I'm not that shallow, baby. But, yes, maybe I want to avenge you..." sabi niya at humakbang palapit nanaman sakin pero kaagad akong umatras.
"I-If it isn't you? Sino? Ikaw lang naman ang nanggugulo s-sakin..." bigla akong nautal dahil malapit na siya sakin.
Nagulat ako ng hapitin niya ng dalawang kamay niya ang bewang ko, it was like he's hugging me now.
He's towering over me kaya yumuko siya para tignan ako but I remained looking at his chest dahil nakakailang ang mga titig niya. I tried to push him but whenever I do that he'll pull me even more closer kaya tumama ang mukha ko sa dibdib niya.
"Castielle!" sita ko dahil sa ginawa niya.
I heard him chuckled. "Sending those damn pictures isn't my kind of avenge, Angelien. You won't even call it revenge because you'll love it anyway..." he said playfully while caressing my waist.
Napalunok ako. Why is that when he called me Angelien, it feels right?
A familiar heat filled my body. Ganitong-ganito ang naramdaman ko nung mga gabing 'yun. The way he caressed my body and the way he kissed me senseless.
Damn it!
"Narian!" I heard someone called.
Kaagad kong nilingon ang boses na'yun. It was Erene looking so shock while looking at us. Kaagad akong napaatras at malaya naman akong binitiwan ni Castielle.
I shyly looked at Erene. Alam ko na ang iniisip niya ngayon. She playfully smiled. "Ah, sorry. Balik nako sa loob!" aniya at kaagad umalis.
Oh, no!
"Erene!" I called and about to go when he pulled me again.
"Not so fast, baby..." he said while grinning.
Damn it! Why is he doing this to me!? Am I cheating with Staven? But he cheated first diba? Oh, damn! Don't think like that, Narian. I am here to f*****g tell Castielle to explain to Staven we didn't do it.
Staven Richmon Guidaben. Siya ang lalakeng mahal ko and even if this f**k boy kept on giving me weird feelings, I will still remain loyal.
Kaagad akong umatras at seryoso siyang tinitigan, "Look, Castielle. Wala kang mapapala sakin dahil kahit wala akong boyfriend, may nagmamay-ari ng puso ko and I am loyal. Kung ayaw mong sumakit uli ang puson mo, quit trying to hook up with me," mariing sabi ko at buong lakas siyang tinulak.
I don't know where I get those brave words. This is the first time I spat on a total stranger dahil tahimik lang naman ako at hindi naghahanap ng kaaway.
Nakita ko ang pag-igting na kaniyang panga at biglang pagdilim ng kaniyang mga mata.
"Loyal? That's bullshit..." mahinang usal niya.
Maybe this casanova has issues of loyalty, ha? Nagkaroon naba siya ng serious relationship at pinagpalit siya kaya bitter siya?
"If you don't believe such thing, well, start believing dahil mayroon pang ako sa mundong ito..." giit ko.
He smirked and looked away like he wasn't convince. Well, pakialam ko naman kung hindi siya na-convince?
"So, please, if you don't want to avenge me, kung hindi man ikaw ang nagpadala ng mga pictures kay Staven then please can you tell him we didn't do such thing? That I was drunk bu--"
"No."
Napakurap ako. I expected that he won't do it but of course, I'm desperate. Siya lang naman ang makakatulong talaga sakin.
"Why not? Okay. I'm sorry for leaving that night and I'm sorry for interupting you from what you-"
He laughed kaya natigilan ako.
"Woah, woah, baby don't be sorry. That night wasn't even special. I have a lot of girls. Hindi ka nag-iisa. Hindi ka special." he said and smirked at me and his eyes were saying in your face.
Bigla akong nakaramdam ng galit. "Bakit may sinabi ba 'kong special ako!?"
Damn this guy!
He smiled, "Well, you sound like you are..."
"Ha! Then why are you kept on pestering me? Alam mo bang iniisip ng lahat na ako ang flavor of the month mo? Na-crush mo daw ako? Ugh!" frustrated na sabi ko.
He chuckled. "I just feel like it. Pestering you..." he said and sighed.
Napaawang ang bibig ko. He just like it? Damn this guy really!?
He crossed his arms, "I'm still a man with a proud ego, you know. You're the first one to reject me and for some reason, I'm quite impress not until your EX something's cheating on you," he said and groaned.
"No one's loyal, Angelien. Even you will cheat." dugtong niya.
Natigilan ako sa sinabi niya. His eyes were fixed on me, looking at me intently convincing me that I will. Like he was the cheat he's talking to.
Well, I almost cheated because of him that night. Noong hindi ko pa siya kilala, hind siya maalis sa isip ko sa kadahilanang nagkaroon pa ako ng insomnia. Ngunit ng makilala ko siya nawala 'yun.
Marahas akong umiling-iling. "I won't get drunk, then!" sagot ko.
Tipid siyang ngumiti. "You'll never know," sagot niya at ibinulsa ang kaniyang dalawang kamay sa kaniyang bulsa.
"Just help me and you'll see Staven's loyal to me." positibong sagot ko.
He smirked, "Give me one reason to help you." sagot niya and gave me a serious look.
"I love him. Is that enough reason, Master Casanova?"
Mas lalong naging seryoso ang kaniyang mukha, tila malapit ng mapikon. Ha! Hindi ba siya naniniwalang may mga kagaya ko pang loyal?
I saw his jaw clenched as he flicked his tongue. "Fine, I'll tell him walang nangyari sa'ting dalawa. In one condition..."
Kumunot ang noo ko. "What? Bakit may kondisyon?" gulat na tanong ko.
He slouched a bit, "If I help you what will I get? Nothing. So I have a condition, interested or not?" he coldly asked.
Mabibigat ang paghinga ko. I can't trust this guy with his conditions. In a split second I think I already know how he thinks!
"I want to hear it first," I said and crossed my arms.
"I want you to work for me." he crossed his arms too.
Kumunot ang noo ko. "Work for you? Saan?"
I looked at Castielle and for some reason, I'm quite bothered that this sly casanova with so many words to say turns cold.
"Clinic," tipid niyang sagot nang hindi nakatingin sakin.
Tumaas ang kilay ko. Woah, a clinic? He have one? Not bad. Ituturing ko nalang itong experience dahil nursing naman ako.
"For how many days?"
"After a week of working, I'll tell your Staven what we did." he coldly said again and walk past through me.
Okay? What just happened with him? Weird. Very very weird.
