Anson's POV
"Well, I'll go have a date with anyone to have s3x with then. Happy now?"
I didn't know what to say as I heard her said that. It feels like I wanted to take everything that I said back about s3x. Maybe because I care for her as my sister.
"Subukan mo isusumbong talaga kita kina momshie." I just told her.
"Haha.. it's you who's influencing me to do so. I'll tell them you even let me hear and watch you f*ck every girl you like."
Sh*tty words if their coming from her. Well, she's right. I'm the one who wants her to change.
"Hindi ko sinasabing makipagsex ka kung kanino, ang sabi ko lang, get a man, a boyfriend rather."
Oh diba? Award winning kuya ako.
"That's what you're doing. You're not getting a girlfriend, you're having flings"
Ha? Saan nya ba natututunan mga term nya?
"I'm a guy, you're a girl."
"Ah basta! Wag mo akong pakialaman kung anong gusto ko sa buhay ko."
"Fine!"
I got up to search for my phone when I heard it rang.
It's Jaz, nagpapasama sa labas kasama ang barkada. Tsk. restaurants are not my thing.
"Erica! Come with me. Let's have dinner outside" She didn't protested. Ano pa bang bago? E pagkain yun.
Nasa mall na kami, pero 'tong kasama ko, nakapajama pa at nakaTshirt! I'm meeting with my friends from the US, mga nakasama ko yun dati sa OJT. Nakakahiya talaga 'tong babaeng 'to.
"Why are you glaring at me?"
Tanong nya na akala mo katulong sa itsura kong gayak na gayak. Fine dinning resto yung pupuntahan namin tapos nakaPJ?
Hinila ko sya at dinala sa 3rd floor habang wala pa ang mga kaybigan ko.
"Anong ginagawa natin dito?"
I did not responded and just pushed her inside.
"Hi Sir. Welcome" one of the ladies came.
"Can you please get her brows aligned and her face.....renewed please. Do whatever it takes"
"Anson..??"
Poprotesta pa pero tinulak ko na. Kainis talaga 'tong babaeng 'to.
While waiting for her, I tried selecting dresses and sandals outside that might suit her.
30 minutes passed and the door inside the make-up room opened. In fairness, mabilis lang naman palang ayusin, akala ko aabutin na ng buong araw. Haha!
I stopped laughing when I saw her stepped out. She was pouting and looking mad at me. Not too much make-up but she looks.... beautiful.
"Ano? Okay na? Mukha na ba akong tao?"
I just smiled and laughed at her.
"Here, try on this dresses and shoes"
"Anson ano ba.. ayoko nyan. San ba tayo pupunta? Party nanaman? Akala ko ba hindi mo na ako pipilitin."
She pouted and she was so cute.
"Kakain lang tayo, walang party promise." I gave her the set of dresses and she abided.
"Ans, masyadong maiksi 'tong mga napili mo"
I glanced at her as she was still pulling down the lace of her dark green dress. I was literally searching her wholeness when I saw her. She's so... gorgeous.
"Ans! Ano? Okay ba? Mapapagalitan ako neto sa bahay eh."
I was smiling at her silliness.
I let her sit and I made her wear a pair of dark green doll shoes with beads shining that made her skin glow.
"Come on, you're all set."
But she didn't moved.
"Do I look just fine?"
I held her up and turned her in front of the mirror with me behind her back.
"Look at you, you've grown so pretty"
I was telling her the truth.
We went inside the restaurant and I saw my friends now seated in a corner.
"Ey dude.. good to see you. And you're with?"
Si Tom, isa ring engineer na nakilala ko sa US.
"Namiss ko kayo mga pare. Oh, by the way this is Erica, my bestfriend"
I introduced her but she seemed uncomfortable.
Then I noticed the two guys glancing at her. And Jaz, Jaz is practically examining her.
Did I just get my bestfriend an admirer?
"Erica this is Tom and Jaz. My friends."
"Have a seat bro"
Tom offered and we did.
"So how long have you been friends? Seriously just friends?"
Si Tom na isa pang womanizer. Not like Jaz who's not into getting girls in bed. Si Jaz yung naiiba samin. I remember I even wanted him to meet Erica on his birthday. But why didn't I mentioned it to him earlier? I forgot, I promised to erica already that I'm not gonna pushed her do things she didn't want anymore.
"She's erica right? The one you wanted Jaz to meet on his birthday party?"
Epal talaga si Tom kahit kelan.
Agad uminom ng tubig si erica. Ewan ko ba, kanina pa sya hindi kumportable. Is she attracted to Jaz?
F*ck No.
Wait, what? It's fine if she is.
"I met her"
We were all surprised.
"You remember me?"
Nilingon ko si erika. They've met?
Hindi ito sumagot.
"Yes, she even gave me a stem of rose" Jaz smirked.
Seriously?
Erica's POV
Sinikap kong kumalma at maniwalang dahil iba itsura ko ngayun, baka hindi naman nya na ako maalala. But I was wrong. And OMG! He smiled at me!
"You're smiling and drooling like crazy erica"
Si anson. Pano kanina pa ako preoccupied sa nangyare.
"Magmaneho ka dyan wag ka mangialam." Sita ko naman habang nasa daan na kami pabalik ng condo nya.
"You've met?"
Sobrang cold ng pagkakatanong nya.
"Oo nung birthday party nya."
Sagot ko naman. Iinisin kita. Haha!
"Then why didn't you tell me? You gave him a rose? So ano ikaw na nanliligaw ngayon?"
"Anson, wag kang epal. Kasalanan mo, I was searching for you when I bumped into him and I didn't had any choice but to give him back the flower. Garden nila yun."
But he is still mad. Bakit ba sya nagagalit? Naku baka isumbong ako kina papsi.
"Still you didn't tell me" Monotone nyang lahad habang nakafocus parin ang mata sa daan habang nagmamaneho.
"Anson, stop being a child. We didn't had s*x if that's what you're thinking!"
Aaaahh! Anson!
I shouted as He suddenly stepped on the car's brake at sumubsob ako sa harap.
"Don't you ever say that Erica!"
He was glaring and he's eyes was really-really mad.
Pagdating namin sa condo nya, he went straight to his room at binalibag ang pintuan papasok. Anong problema nun?
Nilapag ko mga pinamili nyang damit ko daw. He bought a lot and honestly, I'm impressed they look good on me.
I was on the middle of checking my dress when my phone rang.
Unknown?
"Hello? Who's this?"
Tahimik, tapos may biglang tumikhim.
"It's the handsome beast"
Matipuno nyang sagot. Napahawak ako sa pisngi ng marealize kung sino ang nasa linya. OMG! It's Jaz!
"Hey.." is what I got after giggling.
"You home?" He's gentle this time. I can't help but smile.
"Ammm..." I can't tell him I'm in Anson's condo, he might get the wrong idea.
"Yeah.. I am. How about you? How did you get my number anyway?"
I giggled again as I can't help but imagine his handsome face. I think he's my crush now. Haha!
"Got it from Ans of course"
Huwat? Akala ko ba galit-galitan ang loko? Tapos ibibigay din pala.
"Oh really. Good to hear that." Haha! Thanks Ans!
"So, can we talk sometime? Or.. eat out maybe?"
Gosh!!! Is he asking me for a date? No way!!!
I jumped and jumped in a way he wouldn't here me. It's overwhelming!
"Yeah.. sure. Just let me know when."
"Okay, I'll call you. Thanks for today."
OMG! Date! Date! I have a date!
