Endless Love (Amity Series #1) UNEDITED

Chapter 39

Mabilis na lumipas ang mga buwan. We experienced ups and downs together as a family. But...they didn't noticed Adriel.

Something changed about him... between us...

Kahit hindi niya sabihin ay ramdam ko ang panlalamig niya. Kinakausap niya ako pero hindi na tulad ng dati. Kung minsan ay tulala at bigla na lamang iinit ang ulo. Isang beses ay nagulat ako ng sigawan niya ako. Tinanong ko lang siya kung gusto niya kumain pero...

I don't know what happened and...it hurts so much. I can't count how many times he ditched me on our date. He's always missing in action. He's always spacing out. He looks so stressed! But he doesn't give a fuck telling me what's going on!

Napapagod na ako kakaintindi at kakahula sa iniisip niya at kung ano nga ba ang problema...

"He ditched you again?" I smiled when I saw Zyren.

"Ikaw din?" tanong ko and he nodded, scratching the back of his neck.

Yeah, we're both on the same page. Parati'ng ini-indian ng ka-date.

Sa buong maghapon na iyon ay kami ni Zyren ang magkasama. I enjoyed his company and I feel so alive whenever I'm with him. He never failed making me laugh.

"You know what, Donna..." Zyren trailed off, I glanced at him.

Nakaupo kami ngayon sa isang bench malapit sa isang fast food chain. It's already 8pm and we're still here. Walang sumipot na Adriel...wala ang ka-date ni Zyren...kami lang.

"Hmm?"

"I don't want to tell this but...I liked you," I stared at him.

"Talaga? Thank you..." I smiled when he chuckled.

"Yeah, that's what I thought."

Natahimik kami. Tanging ang mga sasakyan lang ang naririnig sa aming paligid.

"I'm sorry, Zyren."

"Don't mind that. I just want to tell you because... I want to let you go," natawa ako saka siya tinitigan.

"Kung makapagsalita ka naman parang boyfriend kita!" I smacked his arm.

"Ang sakit mo magsalita! Alam mo ba na nasasaktan din naman ako? Puro pa-sweet pa kayo sa harap ko ni Adriel!" He whinned.

"Malamang! Mag-jowa kami, 'e!" I spatted.

"Sige, saktan mo ko! Diyan ka naman magaling..." nawala ang ngiti ko. Ibubuka ko na sana ang bibig para makapagsalita ng bigla siyang tumawa.

"I was just kidding! Magmo-move on na nga ako sayo. Gago kasi iyon si Adriel! Inagawan ako?"

"Inagawan?" I asked, forehead creased.

"Hmm. I told them the first day I saw you that I like you and I thought we can click? But little did I know...Thor and Adriel liked you too,"

"Akala ko pwede tayo pero...iba yung tingin mo kay Adi. That's when I realized that you like him...and now you're a couple. I wish I had one, too. Sawa na ako sa madaming babae!" He joked.

"Kaya nga hindi kita type! Gwapo ka naman pero babaero kaya..." I shrugged.

"Hindi ako babaero. Sadyang gwapo lang talaga ako kaya maraming naghahabol sa akin," napairap ako sa kayabangan nito.

We were just talking about school and other things when he stopped talking. I looked at him, wondering why he stopped. He was looking across the road so I followed his gaze. Nahuli ko ang hininga sa nakita.

Adriel...with Lorelei.

"Why is he..." hindi ko na inintindi pa ang sinabi ni Zyren. Tumayo ako at saka dire-diretsong tumawid papunta sa kinaroroonan nila.
