Dealing with Mr. Scared of What? (Quadro Series #1)

Chapter 65

"What? Kyx huwag ka naman mag-biro ng ganiyan."

Tears finally fall from her eyes. Halo -halo na ang nararamdaman niya, nilamon na ng isip niya ang boung pagka-tao niya. Hindi na niya binigyan pansin ang mga tao na masayang nabibilang. Hindi kaya gusto nitong paalisin siya sa buhay nito dahil sa dare na iyon?

"Kyx, I don't think I can grant that wish of yours." Ani niya kasabay ng pag- harap niya sa binata na halos gahibla ang distansya ng mukha nila. "Kyx. The dare was nothing. Walang kinalaman iyon sa kung bakit kita tinulungan. That dare is nothing. It ended the moment it started." She explained, she sounded so desperate. Shit, she never thought she would act like this in front of a man.

She never thought she'll fall in love to the point that she's here crying and begging. This is simply unbelievable.

"That's not it, Quinn." Kyx remarked. Not minding anything she's saying and explaining. Huminga ito ng malalim parang pagod na pagod ito. "This is my wish, Quinn. This is what I want."

"Kyx. Please, the dare was nothing. Don't make me leave you." She beg. Damn, she knew that the dare would give her trouble. That dare build this all but the fucking dare will also ruin this, parang nawawalan ng lakas ang tuhod niya. She felt like she could just drop on the floor. "Kyx, let's talk properly. Not like this."

"No. You said it yourself. You're not gonna leave me until I say so." Kyx remarked. Hindi ito nakatingin sakaniya, tinitignan nito ang mga taong masayang dinidiwang ang New Year. As a tear fall from her eyes, she slowly wrapped her hand around Kyx's waist before resting her left cheek on his chest.

She felt Kyx went rigid for a moment before he slowly relax, ramdam niya ang bilis at lakas ng tibok ng puso nito.

She can't make herself let go, it's driving her crazy. Feeling niya kasi hinding-hindi na niya makikita ang lalaki sa oras na binitawan niya ito at iyon ang ayaw niya. Ayaw niya mawala ang lalaki sa paningin at buhay niya. Ayaw niya pero ano magagawa niya? She always thought of this but she never thought this would happen.

They were okay. Anong bang nangyari sakanila?

"Can I use my wish too?" She asks, a desperate attempt to keep this man in her life, kaya niya maging kaibigan lang kung iyon lang ang paraan para manatili sa buhay niya ang binata. Kyx answered by hugging her back. She cried harder without a sound. "I wish, you will let me stay by your side."

"No, I want you to stay away from me, Quinn." Kyx immediately answered, with no pauses or such. He replied almost immediately as if he's expecting her to ask that, she hug him harder, burying her face in his chest.

Ganon din ang ginawa ng binata. Ramdam niya ang pag-higpit ng yakap nito sakaniya. Pakiramdam niya mababali ang buto niya sa yakap nito, ramdam niya din ang panginginig ng bibig nito na nasa leeg niya. She did and said it all, hindi ba iyon sapat para maramdaman nito na walang kinalaman ang lintek na dare iyon sa pagtulong niya dito.

Wala na ang pesteng dare na iyon. Wala na. Ano ba kasing ginawa niya? Bakit? Ayaw niyang bitawan ito pero ano naman magagawa niya?

She wanted to keep him but you can't keep someone who doesn't want to be kept, at wala siyang karapatan para panatalihin ang binata sa buhay niya. Kaya niya gawin lahat, she will fight to be in his side but she knew Kyx. His words and actions are a product of long thinking. Kyx is not a drastic person.
