Kreston Crown

Chapter 16

KRESTON WATCH Sierra's back as she walk out of the kitchen until she was nowhere in sight.

Napatingin siya sa inihanda niyang pagkain para dito na hindi nito inubos. Napahilamos na lang siya ng mukha gamit ang mga palad dahil sa inis sa sarili.

Maybe it wasn't a really good idea to left Sierra and then not call her for so long. Now, he fucking doesn't know what to do.

Napatitig na lang si Kreston sa pagkain niya. Nawalan na rin siya ng ganang kumain. Dahil doon ay niligpit na lang niya ang pinagkainan nilang dalawa ni Sierra bago tinungo ang bar area para kumuha ng alak at lumabas ng bahay. Tumambay siys sa gazebo na nasa gitna ng fishpond sa likod ng bahay niya.

Kreston silently thinks of ways how to woo Sierra while drinking but all of the ideas that go through his mind do not suit well with him.

Frustrated, he fished for his phone and called his father.

"Dad, how do you woo mom when she's mad at you?" Agad niyang tanong sa ama.

Ilang sandali itong hindi nagsalita bago niya narinig ang boses nito. "Why?"

Kreston groaned. "I asked you first."

Dad tsked. "Now, now, son. May I remind you, you are the one who needs something from me. You either tell me why or I'll drop this call."

Kreston can't help but silently cuss. He doesn't have a choice, does he? Sighing and frowning, Kreston told his dad why.

After that, he heard his father laugh.

"Dad stop it!" Inis na aniya sa ama niya.

His father cleared his throat before he stopped laughing but Kreston knows that his father is still grinning. Tch.

"Son, it's different with every woman. With your mom, I woo her through seduction." Malakas itong tumawa na ikinakunot ng noo niya. "Flowers and chocolates don't work with her. So... kailangan kong akitin." Tumawa na naman ito.

Napailing na lang si Kreston sa sinabi ng ama niya pero hindi niya rin mapigilan ang mapangiti.

"So my advice is to think of something that your woman can't refuse. If you think flower and chocolate isn't her thing then," Dad drawled. "Offer you body." Malakas na naman itong tumawa.

Kumunot ang noo ni Kreston sa sinabi nito. "Dad I am serious here," he said, annoyed.

"Same here, son. Same here." Dad tsked before ending the call which made Kreston frown even more.

"Tsk, that father of mine can't—"

Natigilan si Kreston ng maalala ang sinabi ng ama.

Offer your body...

Kreston smirked with the thought. He knows Sierra isn't fun of sweets or flowers. Aside from that, she isn't really a materialistic woman.

Alam niya iyon dahil mahigit dalawang taon niya na rin na sinusubaybayan ang dalaga at binabakuran ng hindi nito alam. Kaya't nakilala na niya ito kahit papano.

Isa lang ang alam niyang gusto nito. But he doesn't know if she'll like it or if it is a good idea either. But he has to try.

Kreston drank the last liquor that was in his glass before he walked back inside his house and run up the stairs towards Sierra's room.

NAPATINGIN si Sierra sa pintuan ng silid niya nang may kumatok doon. Tumayo siya mula sa sofa at tinungo ang pintuan at binuksan iyon.

Nangunot ang noo niya ng makita si Kreston na mukhang tumakbo dahil sa bilis ng paghinga nito.
