“What? She’s not with me.” He denied confidently.
I rolled my eyes on him, tapos ay inalis ko ang pag kakayakap nya saakin at mabilis na tumayo mula sa kanyang mga bunting at umupo sa tabi nya.
“Did you just roll your eyes on me?” Napataas kilay nya habang pigil ang ngiti sa labi.
Kainis! He is not taking me seriously!
“What if..I did?” I snorted and looked away.
“Agape Mou..”
Hindi ko sya pinansin, ni hindi ko sya nilingon. I heard him sigh, then he reached for my arm and pulled me close. He snaked his arm on my waist again, his hand settled on my tummy. His thumb slowly drew circles on my tummy, good thing wala akong kiliti doon.
“I am not with Sancha.” He started.
Why is he denying it?! I pursed my lips.
“She lives in Greece, normally she’s there but she’s not with me..That’s two different things.” He said it in a matter of fact way. “ I only saw her once for the past days at I’m in Greece.
Binalingan ko sya at siningkitan ng mata. I did not say anything, I just waited for him to continue.
“It was with our families.” Masuyo nyang sabi. “I did not even talk to her, even when our parents asked me to forgive her for whatever she has done.” He shrugged. “I am not a forgiving person Love, and I am not proud of it. What she did to us is still fresh to my memories.”
I bit my lips. Unti unting natunaw ang tampo ko pero bigla akong may naalala!
“Why didn’t you tell me that she lives in Greece too, and your house is near their house?!” Maktol ko. I think those details are important, he should have shared it with me!
“Because that’s not important.” He shook his head. “Besides, I stayed in my house, not at my family’s and it’s far from Sancha’s family house.” He said nonchalantly.
Napasinghap ako. Medyo nabunutan ng tinik sa dibdib.
“She’s the one who told you about the issue right?” I whispered and looked away.
Sancha likes Silas..or maybe more than ‘like’.. so I was not surprised to hear that she’s the one who told news to Silas. Because I know that she will do what she can to ruin us..
“I’m actually thankful that she told me.” Marahas ang lingon na ginawa ko upang tingnan sya. “If she had not told me, I won’t know about it since my girlfriend has no plans on telling me.” He said while looking at me intently as if waiting for me to disagree.
Napasimangot at halukipkip ako.
”You will still know it, ang daming admirer mo ang nag tagged sayo remember?!”
”You know that I rarely open my social media..I will just open it to check your stories or posts. I’m not even checking my notifs.” He smirked.
I cleared my throat as my checks started to feel hot.
. Silas is really a sweet talker.
“How can I tell you, you are unreachable.” I said in a small voice.
“Because, I jumped on the earliest flight that I was able to book.”
I pouted. Kaya naman pala.
“Now, are we good?”
I nodded slowly and he sighed.
“How did you find me pala?” I did not tell my cousins that I’m going out kaya laking taka ko kung paano nya ako nakita.
“I saw you leaving the villa.. I just followed you around.” He paused. “ I did not plan to show up because you seem like you wanted to be alone, I can talk to you once you are home anyway.. but… that guy tried to hit on you so I had to step in-“
“It was an accident, we bumped to each other-“
“It was not an accident! It was intentional! He saw you and bumped you to get your attention.” He sounded annoyed, he is now frowning
I laughed.
“No, you’re just tamang hinala!?”
He breath harshly.
“I saw it baby, he was watching you for a long time and intentionally bumped you.” His eyes is telling me that he is really saying the truth.
“Ohh..”
“Yes, ohh..” inirapan nya ako. “Until now you’re still clueless about the guys who’s into you.” He mumbled and I just pouted. Ayoko na nag comment at baka humaba pa ang usapin.
Then I remembered something.
“When are you going back to Greece?” I asked in low voice as I tried to conceal my sadness.
Iniisip ko palang na aalis uli sya, nalulungkot na ako.
He stared at me in a way na para bang alam nya ang iniisip ko.
He reached for my cheeks and caressed it. Gosh, I tried so hard not to close my eyes for his hands felt so good!
“I’m sorry that I still have to leave..” he said. I know that this is also hard for him, but what can we do? This is about his family, he is the only child and his family needs him.
“It’s okay, I understand naman.” I gave him a sad smile.
“Thank you love, thank you.” He whispered before he gave me a kiss.
Ohhh.. I really missed him.
My cousins were already home when Silas and I got back. They were waiting for us at the Main villa. As per Nix, he already scheduled a meeting with Paris, Milan’s older brother.
It will be Me, Silas, Kuya Yvo and Nix who will face Paris. Nung una ayaw pa nila akong isama but I told them that I am the one involved and I am the victim here so I must be in the meeting.
We will meet Paris tomorrow after school, may pasok din kasi ito at sa ibang school pa ito nag aaral at ibang city.
“When’s your flight man?” Rinig kong tanong ni Kuya Yvo. They are currently drinking at our mini bar while I am with the girls, sitting on the couch.
“The day after tomorrow. I have to go back asap because Uncle Andreas needs to fly back to New York.”
“And when will you come back?”
“Maybe in three weeks time?” He sounded unsure, which made me worry. He was in Greece for almost two weeks already and if another three weeks is not enough.. Hindi ba masyado na matagal iyon? I scratched my right eyebrow.
“You must be here in three weeks time.” Kuya Yvo paused. “If the news haven’t reached you yet.. let me tell you then. Leigh’s admirers are showing up, malakas loob kasi wala ka!” Nang aasar nitong sabi.
My eyes widened, why does he need to say that?! Kainis itong si Kuya Yvo! Gagawa pa ng issue!
“That’s true Kuya Silas! My classmate’s older brother even asked me kung kayo pa ni Leigh! He even asked for Leigh’s number!” Natatawang sabi nito sabay sulyap saakin na para bang nang aasar!
Nilakihan ko sya ng mata. May atraso pa sya sakin tapos masusumbong sya kay Silas ng kung ano ano!
“What did you tell that f*cker?” He asked coldly, nag tawanan sila Kuya Rue at Kuya Thyme sa reaction ni Silas.
'
“I told him to back off kung mahal pa nya buhay nya!” Proud nyang sabi.
Napapikit ako.
“Good.” Silas said. “What’s the name of that f*cker by the way?”
Hindi ko na napigilan lingunin sya.
“North!” Angal ko at lalo nag tawanan ang boys while Silas just smirked at me.
