KAIZER “We'll going outdoor,” her voiced flicked in my ear, it's disgusting me that even me can't closed her mouth. She's noisy. “Lynaire, we only have fifteen minutes, it's your Filipino subject next?” that Renlé said. I can heard them, their conversation while I'm sitting across their table together with Ashlyn who is busy typing through her laptop. “Make it one hour, Renlé...” this kid. “Who's your teacher?” shitt you! “I don't know, let's get outside.” Lynaire looks disgust, though Renlé so. I smirk and lift my spoon as I eat. I tried to cover my ears with my view towards Ashlyn doing her work. She's into something, I can't rebuke. “My loving Jarson, come here.” lady in disguise, it's swelling my disdain! “Yeah, that headed of yours never changed. Tara na, tara na, baka masabunutan pa 'ko ng babae'ng 'to, para akong matatanggalan ng anit sa kaniya.” “Hindi pa naman, you're just delicate, Jarson.” “Choose your own menu, then play with it instead, buldog boy.” “Jarson, come here. Look at me,” Lynaire blabbered, her footage marked to my ears as it nailed my attention to them. Napako sa kanila, sa babaeng todo kung ngumiti ng makalapit sa kaniya ang Jarson na 'yon saka mariing pinisil ang pisngi para marinig ng mga tenga ko ang pagngiwi nito. Kawawa pala ang mga lalaki sa kaniya. Napa-iling ako at doon napatayo matapos dampian ng lalaking 'yon ng halik ang sentido ni Lynaire. Fvck this jerk! “K-Kaizer?” nawala ang pansin ko sa kanila matapos akong tawagan ni Ashlyn. “You want something? I'll order.” mabilis kong sambit bago muling napa-upo at malalim na huminga. Lynaire, you're making my life so wicked. I'm dwell. Fvcking that attraction! I can't focus, my threat come but my body moves to look forward and check her. “Iced tea.” I stood up and walk, my eyes drool next to them. This is invasive of me, losing control. Hindi ko na alam kung ano'ng ginagawa ko. I stomp and ramp forward the counter as I ordered an Iced tea. After paying, I have seen her realistic smile, too bold, irresistible, affable and so much aspiring to keep on. “Kailan mo ba sasagutin si Renlé, para doble 'yung handaan sa biyernes.” “Oo nga, para maging friends na kami.” “Lynaire, Lynaire, my Lovie Lynaire... Lynaire, Lyna—” Lynaire smacked her friend on his shoulder that even my tip stretched. “Oo na, susunduin ko 'yung aso ni Jarson para matigil kana sa pagkukumpara sa aming dalawa.” seriously? Lynaire used to compared that man into a dog? Gusto kong matawa sa narinig pero napako ang tingin ko sa babaeng nakatalikod, bitbit ang paper bag at sunod-sunod ang paghakbang papalayo sa mga kasama niya. “Pesteng Gian!” “Ano?!” “Peste ka!” “Wala naman akong ginawa ah,” “Mokong mo, tingnan mo si Lynaire,” “Nakasunod naman 'yung manliligaw niya, siguradong may date ang mga 'yun.” “Tsk.” mabilis kong nilapag ang tea sa lamesa at umupo nang walang pinapasok sa isip. Masyadong naging magulo ang isip ko magsimula nung makita ko ang nakakatandang anak ni Tita Zyrene. How could that happened? She's standing enigmatic, more luxury but luscious to tempted on. Did Lynaire have answer that guy to make him as hers for official? Are these guy cannot felt delirious ultimatums? Hindi sila manhid.. They know and I'm wondering, it's hitting my inner me to seek, peek and search for her profile. Parang nakatago ang kalahati sa kaniya. “I'm not able to come with you later, Kaizer. May gagawin pa 'kong project kasama ang mga partner ko sa isang coffee shop,” Lynaire didn't went to school, never show her shadow up. Our classmates expecting her as how I am. She missed four subjects, whole afternoon messed due to her wonderful welcome for us. That meek face is so attentive, showing this latent vibe upon us—her mates. My lips squirm when I saw a familiar girl, if she just know how our boy mates talking about her—she'll probably get drop to this school and never come back. They all want her, they want to be friends and later be her boyfriend which is a fvcking not so sounds good, never good. Her chortles linger in my ear, her eyes gripped with the oath of promised happiness while her hips are not such bitchy to show off. Talking with random guys outdoor seemingly not appropriate for me, despite she abandoned her time upon schooling for her sake is much more disgusting but I can apparently feel the devastated, she's not mine, and not either them to speak injustice to her. Looks can deceive but hers never meets my hunch, her fellow shoulder shows alluring pace, her voice clipping through my head rotated my objective and come towards her. “Research is not that easy as you think, Kelwin. I will focus on hypothesis, then you'll gather integral datas and surveys.” Lynaire visual lurking down to my throat a voluble sweetness and seducing cessation. “You remember about the parts pf the research, right? Mapapadali tayo kapag alam na natin ang porma no'n,” what a good and rich with smart cells this girl is. Ashlyn was right, she didn't went to our room to study but she did it already. Nakatalikod ito, nakaupo habang ang bag nito at nasa ibabaw ng lamesa, may katabi rin itong gatas na nasa tumbler habang may nakalabas na books. “Milk?” sounds good. “I'm now going, Lynaire. Thank you for teaching.” Kelwin, our classmate bid bye. “Thank you for trusting, text me tonight, okay? I'll let you know about the details I gathered,” she added as she sat up and approach him with her company smiles. “You can visit me in our house later, Kelwin. I want the work to be done with our owned sweats, or I'll just do it in your house. Send me your address right away, bye.” no doubt, no bounty hunch? I hate you for that, Lynaire. “I think you're now going too after that meeting, Miss Lynaire.” I said, she rose her emotion into a startled one. Her brows duplicated a long stunned as she face me. Her stunning curly hair gleaming warmness as her tied for her hair designed to her wrist. “Uh, K-Kaizer..” her lips spurted a gnawing voice, it resilience when she take a sit first before she draw the present in her eyes. Hinintay ko ito hanggang sa lumalim ang panghinga nito. Maaliwalas ang dating niya, kahit pa mas nakakapagod ang mga gawain sa semester na 'to ay walang nagalaw sa kaniyang itsura kanina. “I-I forgot—mhmm. Do you want to order something?” mahinang tanong nito. “Why don't you ask me to take a sit first, lady.” mas naging komplikado ang dating ng itsura niya, naguguluhan ngunit ako na mismo ang umupo sa harap nito at ipinuwesto ang nag sa ibabaw ng lamesa katulad ng sa kaniya. “W-Where's Ashyn? W-Why—” “I want milk, Lynaire.” she bite her lower lip within her eyes keeps on growing upon moving from left to right, in any corner as if she is telling she's in great perplexed. “O-Okay.” mabilis itong tumalikod at nagtungo sa counter, medyo malayo ang lalakarin niya dahil sa lawak ng tea shop na 'to ay marami rin ang mga customer na nasa loob. Almost of our fellow students have tainted their eyes as they nailed it to Lynaire. They are lurking, it itch me. Tumayo ako at sumunod sa kaniya. I heave a deep breath and meet her to pinned my arms on her shoulder. Napa-igtad pa ito dahil sa ginawa ko. Impit akong napatawa dahil sa pagkabigla nito. “Walk, don't look to anywhere because I badly want milk, Lynaire.” I whisper to her left ear which the stunned moments further germinated. I hold her hand and walks in, we both halt and steady in front of the counter while picking an order. “What do you want?” tanong ko at mabilis akong humarap sa kaniya. “I can't stay here for long..” mahinang sambit nito para mas lumaki ang ngisi sa labi ko. “Then, you have no choice but to stay, Lynaire.” I muttered. I picked one milk and one tea. She gasped, her voice littered none and permeated a goosebumps when she left an amount of deep sigh. We will indulge this moment, my time with her and her time with me. “You can't left me here alone, you will not until I'm not in decision to left this place and ready to be depart to you.” bulong ko sa sarili ko para tingalain ako nito. “W-What are you saying?” “Apparently you got that beat, Lynaire.” you're my classmate, as in halfway aged to mine but never know about your enigmatic grounds. “Dropped that, Kaizer. I need to go,” “Then, please me.” nakangising usal ko para muli itong humarap sa cashier. “You're unbelievable.” she is frustrating. “Indeed, Lynaire.” Pagkatapos iabot sa amin ang order ay sabay kaming nagtungo sa kaninang puwesto. Mukha pa itong wala sa huwisyo dahil sa sinabi ko, iyon lang ang posible kong gawin ngayon. “Have you ever heard Dalton toasted that atom is the element cannot perceive to be set apart.” saad ko para lingunin ako nito. “That was on 1803,” walang ganang wika nito para mas lumawak ang ngising nakapaskil sa mga labi ko. “I'm bored, Kaizer. I want to go outside and waste my time with my friends na,” sabi nito sa mababang boses. “Your friends?” “Mhmm.” “Why?” she furrow her brows as she sip her milk. “Those bastard.” “You are jerk.” “But not bastard,” turan ko, she sneered her eye balls and grab her tumbler as she open it and snob me. “That's not what I mean.” “What is it, then?” “That you're the most annoying, irritating, loathing, exasperate person have ruined mentally, you quickly destroy my whole time, Kaizer. Naiinis ako sa 'yo, kanina kapa.” her cheek turn reddish, her ears moving like an amiable so show how cute is it. “Then, I'm that impressive for your eyes.” “Invasive, Kaizer.” I chuckle and rest my arms on the table before come near to her and watch her loosing herself into reality. “I heard your partner in our thesis is Kelwin.” I stated, her eyebrows pertaining she's required to expel a trash words but she sigh and frown. “What's the thing? Is that a big deal?” you are, lady. “Art of destruction maybe?” “Law of negligence,” she pointed as her eyes crushed into that swollen disgust. “You know—” “Stop.” naiinis ng hayag nito para matawa ako. “Why, what I'm telling is—” “I told you to respect what I said,” “You didn't said that,” “Take a risk, then.” “Do you really want to go to that fvcking guy's house?” kunot noong tanong ko. “You're bricking, Kaizer. Are you chismoso?” “Why? You're curios?” I said while dripping a soft curl to my lips. “Aalis na 'ko,” “What I said while ago, Lynaire.” “Nakakainis ka.” “Let's get out. We'll walk outdoor.” I grab my bag and wait for her to fix her. “Paninindigan mo 'yan, Kaizer. Itutulak talaga kita kapag may nakita akong putik sa daan,” she menace, I chuckle and waits for her to turn her body as I cuffed her wrist and take it with me. “What time is it?” she asked, ignoring it perfectly defined the night full with stars, our lights. Moon is shining brightly, Lynaire is speaking, shuffling her feet in any way she wanted but I managed it. Ng maramdaman kong liliko ito ay sinapo ko ang bewang niya at nakangising isinabay sa paglalakad diretso sa mini mart. “Tell me where you'll going to bring me?” “Adopting a kid is not bad, Lynaire.” sambit ko saka kumuha ng cart at naglakad patungo sa mga chocolates. “That's not adoption, it's k********g, Kaizer. It's kidnapping.” pag-didiin nito para matawa ako at hinila ito. “You want to live with me?” “I don't like a brother like you, you're such carking, chaffing and an annoying guy.” me too, I don't like you as my sister, little brat. “You want to cook something?” I shifted, I dragged her right away next to vegetable section and review the entire products have organized. “You can cook?” “I'm not asking you—” “You know carbonara? That one.” nakangiting sambit nito. I took all the ingredients affiliates to that certain food of hers as we got out with her extra rants to have chocolates again. Mapapasubo ako sa babae'ng 'to, kakaiba ang ikot ng bituka. “Kaizer.” hinintay ko ito habang papatakbo ito palapit sa 'kin. She's holding her chocolates while her lips glitter with excess enjoyments. Little things, huh. “You still have your milk?” mabilis itong umiling habang naglalakad. I can't have a ride with her, if we will—definitely that Kelwin's house is her destination. I care about the project but not to that Kelwin, he can done it by his self only without Lynaire's help. “What time is it now, Kaizer?” “We both have watch,” “I don't have,” “Purchase one, then.” “I can't find a perfect pink can be pair to my skin, I love Chanel that even my entire things has a marked of it, with my name.” pagmamalaki pa nito na nasundan pa ng tili. “You're that maarte, Lynaire.” “I have my Xiber, he will made that come true—I don't need to walk that far to—uh..” he? Xiber? Quality name, huh. Pwedeng durugin. “You have...?” “U-Uh, nothing. Let's go, we'll cook pa.” she yanks me to forgot what her mouth slipped out an odd words. Are you hiding something? Why your mouth speaks that name? Who's Xiber? Itinuro ko sa kaniya ang daan patungo sa bahay. Maagap ko itong inalalayan sa pagpasok dahil sa paggalaw-galaw nito ay baka madapa ito. Maraming bato dito, madilim na at baka hindi niya 'yon makita. Inilapag niya ang dalang paper bag at 'yung sa ibabaw ng lamesa bago nagtungo sa counter. She come on the sink and wash her hands, she search for tissue but her hand caught a fabric on the corner as she drain her wet hands. I wear my slippers and placed her things in other room, it's messy when those will remain. I prepare for a bowl and a separated container for other ingredients after washing. She's doing for the entire time is to watch and speak with marvelous contents. “Do you have milk here?” spare for that one. I never like milk, Lynaire. “You really want milk.” “Who do you think who wouldn't?” me as ever. “Wait for five minutes there, don't come near the stove—your skin gets burn.” paalala ko sa kaniya bago nagtungo sa silid ko at kinuha ang phone. “Yeah, bad evening, brother Kaizer.” inaantok na bati nito para hayaan ko lang iyong maging palamuti niya para makalusot. “It's good for me. Buy me a milk, Lodrick.” his sigh explored a resistance. “Lodrick?” “Oo na, ano bang gatas 'yan, powder o 'yung nasa container na. May trans-fat ba?” “Buy that both.” mabilis kong pahayag. I set my cloths for later on the bed before turning my back to go back. While I'm waiting for the pasta to be boil, I starts to prepare her a plate. Nakaupo ito habang ang tingin ay nasa sauce na nasa harapan nito, may hawak pa itong tsokolate sa kaliwang kamay na kaniyang binitawan matapos kong ma-i-hain ang carbonara sa harap niya. “Wow..” “Eat that, you can't stand to your seats while that plate contained your leftover, Lynaire.” “Yeah, whatever. Thank you, Kaizer.. Come here,” mabilis na paypay niya sa kamay niya habang ang pansin ay nakapako na sa pagkaing kaharap. “Thank you, I love this..” mariin akong napangiwi matapos nitong pisilin ang magkabilaan kong pisngi. I heard the doorbell rung, I held on the table and look after her. She enjoys food so much, but her cheek remain glossy and affluent upon in perfect shaped. “I'll see—” she stops me from speaking then signaled to go. “Bad girl,” napa-iling akong tumalikod at nagtungo sa gate. “May bata ka bang kasama at naisipan mong tawagan ako sa kalagitnaan ng paggawa ko ng homework ko?” I grab the paper bag on him and lazily look t him. “There's a kid inside, and you can go out now, thank you for this.” pagtataboy ko para hindi na 'to mangulit pa. “Teka, teka lang, Kaizer. Papasok ako, may bata lang sa loob ng bahay niyo naging masama kana. I'm going inside, I want to meet that fvcking kiddo,” mariing sambit nito bago ipagtulakan ang sarili upang makapasok. I walk forward, she is eating her carbonara as we both Lodrick stopped like a menace tricked us. He climb his stare next to me and applied his brows an intense confused with a doubting beaming tips. “Go off, Lodrick. Don't look at her and don't you ever meet her—” “Hi, little girl. What's your name?” agad pang putol ni Lodrick sa sasabihin ko ng lumapit ito sa katabing upuan ni Lynaire. “H-Hi,” she stammered, her eyes locked on her food, her both hands filled with her spoons and fork whilst her lips is glowing with sauce but she lick it and clean before she again swirl the fork on the pasta and eat. “I'm hungry person here,” sabat pa ni Lodrick para mainis ako. “I'm not asking, I'm eating and please don't disturb me if you can. I will not asked you about that thing, that Kaizer cooked this because I requested for it and if you want to eat, then buy for your own food—I'll peacefully grind with mine here. Don't you ever touch my food.” Lynaire threatened as she look with severe affection to Lodrick. I chuckle and stop when she look at me and glare with her lacing blaze eyes. Naiinis ito dahil may disturbong nakapasok at kinukulit siya. “Come here and leave her there, Lodrick. She's busy with her food.” pagdidiin ko habang nakatingin sa kaniya. “You look cute, honey.” this flirty ass guy can't understand I'm shooing him away. “I'm not good in dealing with your words, Mister oldy man. I will do it after eating, kindly go with that Kaizer please.” itinuro niya pa 'ko habang ngumunguya. “Yeah, I'll wait.” pagkalapit nito sa 'kin, kaagad niyang nilukob ang balikat ko ng kaniyang braso at sunod na naglakad patungo sa sala. “Is she the kid you're pertaining?” reference for you, it's a matter of yes and facts. This is semantic, platonic, I hate this guy. Always interfering with my business. Umupo ako at kinuha ang dalang gatas para ilabas ang mga 'yon. “Sana dinagdagan ko pa, kung sinabi mong—” “She's my classmate, Lodrick. She's hungry and drooling for that milk.” diretsong untag ko para mabaling ang tingin niya sa mga gatas na binili niya. “Mukha nga. Ang sabi mo bata, bakit parang dyosa naman. I'm always here to guard that girl for my sake also, Kaizer.” like at first sight. “I like her, she looks mataray and delicate girl but her brows shouting pure elegance. Tinawag pa 'kong oldy man, kahit na gano'n—mapapatawad ko pa rin s'ya.” because she is. “Hindi ka pa uuwi?” “Pinupunta mo na 'ko dito, aalis pa 'ko gayong nakita ko na ang batang tinutukoy mo.” angil nito para maglabas ako ng hininga. “Inutusan kita, hindi kita pinapunta.” “Gano'n na rin 'yon,” “I'm doing my thesis too, Lodrick.” “Edi ako na ang maghahatid sa kaniya.” I hissed after that word have boasted to my ear and silently clench my jaw. “I'll do it after that things of hers,” sabat ko para maaninagan sa mukha nito ang pagka-kunot noo. “Nasaan ba si Ashlyn? Hindi ba siya ang nililigawan mo?” he enquired. “She have to do her group project,” kaagad na wika ko para maisandal muli nito ang kaniyang ulo sa upuan. “Then that girl can be mine later, Kaizer.” “Tsk,” “Bakit?” “Just go out, umuwi kana, hinahabap kana ng nanay mo.” mariin kong sabi. “Hindi pa naman, magpapaalam ako.” “Excuse me.” I stand up and come to my room. Bullshit! This is dilemma of mine. I take the towel with me and open the switch of the shower. Seeds of water cascades down to my skin, every dripped of it, drifting my thought into more affection. I'm not like this, I should not be. I'm just curios. I like Ashlyn and this fvcking punishment for me to endure I'm stabbing with small needle everytime Lynaire is saying fascinating words to her colleagues. Fvck this! I should stop this now! But I will accompany her for the works. I can't just let her do her work together that Kelwin by doing their fvcking thesis. She will stay here and cope up with my disease, fvck this. I'm so perceive, so delirious that even the thing I should not think dropped and pop up to my mind, doing it with her.
