A Sinful Pleasure (Island Of Sin #2)

8

The whole time with him is a like a pleasure. Hindi ako nakapanood ng maayos dahil hindi ako naging komportable sa mga titig ni Raven. Everytime I caught him staring at me, he will not look away. Ako pa ang iiwas ng tingin dahil hindi ako komportable.

I don't know if it is just his stares that made my heart beats very wild, or my heart just beat like this. A kind of beat that made happy and at ease, but at the same time, uncomfortable. Hindi rin naman siya ganun ka concentrate sa panonood.

Biglang sumipot si June sa kung saan at ganun parin ang klase ng ngiti. Nanunuya at halatang masayang-masaya. Nakataas ang kilay tila nanunudyo.

Raven just look at him boredly and irritation is very evident.

"Kuya, handa ang tanghalian. Makatitig 'to parang may gustong ibang kainin."

"Tss. Stop with that nonsense, June."

"Kunwari cold, pero ang too kinikilig na 'yan." Lumapit si June at nag-aaktong kikilitiin si Raven.

I laugh a bit because of their closeness. Raven is coldand silent while June is playful and witty.

"The fuck, June!" malutong niyang sinabi sabay tampal sa kamay nito.

Tumatawang umalos si June. Hindi ko aam kung bakit siya masayang-masaya ngayon kahit wala naman siyang babae dinala. I remember someone possible that made him happy but I ignore it. Impossible kasi.

At hindi rin siya takot kay Raven ngayon. Halatang nanunuya pa siya rito.

Bumaling sa akin si Raven pag-aalis ni June.

"Are you hungry? Let's eat."

Tumango ako at sumunod sa kaniya. He off the TV first before heading to dining room. I don't know what episode are we, but I think I don't care. Hindi rin naman ako nakasunod.

June is already sitting on the chair but he didn't eat yet. He stand up when he saw us and sitted back when both Raven and I sitted as well.

Magkaharap kami ni June habang katabi naman kami ni Raven.

We started to eat. Raven put a lot food in my plate which I think it's too much. Hindi naman ako ganun karami kumain, pero syempre hindi narin ako nagreklamo pa.

"You should eat more so that you will grow fast," he whisper when put the last food in my plate.

Grow fast? Bakit ba gusto niya iyon? Edi tatanda ako kaagad. Pero hindi ko iyon isinatinig.

"Kuya, gagawin mo atang baboy si April niyan. Kahit naman magiging mataba 'yan, marami paring magkakagusto riyan. Style mo bulok."

I don't know what's with June today, but he seems very happy to annoy Raven today.

"Ayaw pa naman ng mga babaeng Gen Z na pinapanguhan sila," June added and whistle.

Raven seems bother at June's remark. Umayos siya sa pagkakaup at pinany ang mukha ko.

"Is it too much? The f-food?"

"I can it eat all." I lick my lower lip and started eating. Raven nodded and started eating as well.

"Kuya si Paul-"

"Huwag mo ng pabalikin dito," malamig na putol ni Raven.

"Selo-"

"Stop with that nonsense, June."

June laugh teasingly.

"By the way, you're father called me and told me that you're studying here," si Raven sa kalagitnaan ng aming pagkain.
