The Hidden Love (On going)

CHAPTER 11

CYRUS POV

I took her to my condo again, I laid her on the bed and removed her shoes. She fell asleep as we headed to my condominium.

Tinawagan ko si Mom kanina at sinabing kasama ko na si Olivia at dalhin muna sa condo ko, she agreed and told me to take care of it first.

Suddenly my phone rang.

It was Avery.

~Avery Calling~

[Are you doing something?]

Lumabas ako sa room at pumunta sa kitchen.

[Ahh.. Daddy just asked me to do something.] i lied.

[Ohh.. is that so? Aalis kasi ako and i need your help but it's fine.]

Nakonsensiya naman ako sa sinabi niya.

[I'm sorry if I can't be with you.]

[It's okay Cyrus, i understand.]

She ended the call nang hindi nagpapaalam, hinayaan ko na lang at pumunta muli sa kwarto para tingnan si Olivia.

Maya-maya lang nag ring uli ang phone ko hindi na tiningnan kung sino ang tumawag.

[Hello?]

[Cyrus, what did Avery say i made you do something?] boses iyon ni Dad kaya kinabahan ako.

[I'm sorry i lied to her Dad, i'm just busy with my paper works kaya nasabi ko na inutusan mo ako.] i lied.

[I don't believe what you said Cyrus, you might be doing something bad. Where are you?] tanong niya.

[I'm with my friends, Dad.] kabadong sabi ko.

Kapag nalaman ni Dad na nagdala ako ng babae sa condo ko magagalit ito sakin, dahil ayaw niyang may iba akong dinadala sa condo.

He ended the call, kinabahan ako kaya dali-dali kong tinawagan sina Deniel and Jackson at sabihing kasama ko sila.

Alam kong pupunta sa condo ko si Dad kaya tinawagan ko sina Deniel para tulungan akong buhatin ito dalhin muna sa condo ni Jackson, pumayag naman siya. Dahil malapit lang naman ang condo niya mabilis naming nadala si Olivia sa kwarto nito at dahan-dahang ibinaba.

"What happened and why are you together?" biglang sabi ni Deniel.

"She was drunk kaya i fetch her." i answered at inayos ang kumot.

"You know what, she's pretty." komento naman ni Jackson.

Tinapik naman ni Deniel si Jackson sa balikat at tinitigan si Olivia, i felt annoyed with them.

"I'm single, i can court her." seryosong sabi ni Deniel.

I was about to answer but Jackson's cell phone rang, kinuha niya ito sa study table at kumunot ang noo, humarap ito sakin and he handed the phone.

"Avery calls." abot niya sakin pero hindi ko ito kinuha.

"Sagutin mo." i told him.

He rolled his eyes and answer the call.

"He's with us and uh- we are studying.. Ahh yeah.. It's okay, small thing haha.. Okay." pagkababa ng phone niya natawa siya.

"Alam mo nagsisinungaling tayo sa kanya." Jackson.

"Wala akong maisip, atyaka baka tawagin ako ni Dad." i said.

Nag-aya sila sa stool bar.

"Wala pa ba kayong label ni Avery? Ang tagal mo na siyang nililigawan pero hindi ka pa din sinasagot, alam mo pre ayoko siyang pangunahan pero sobrang tagal naman ng gusto niya." Deniel have a point.
