Melting You Softly (Student Series #1)

Chapter 48

Chapter 48

"Don't talk to your brother like that again, Axe. Hindi niya ako binastos, okay? He was clearly trying to piss you off and you fell for his trap. Kung may gagawin man siyang kalokohan sa akin, ako na mismo ang sasapak diyan sa kapatid mo. Ayaw ko ng ganoon ang paraan ng pakikipag-usap mo sa kanya, Axasiel."

He was sitting on the edge of his bed, fidgeting his fingers, muted, only listening and nodding on everything I said to him. Nakayuko rin siya at hindi makatingin sa akin habang nakatayo ako sa harap niya at nakapamaywang.

"Huwag mo nang uulitin 'yon. I don't want to hear any threats from your mouth. Hindi ka ganoon."

He thrust up his chin lightly with mouth agape before he pressed his tongue against his cheek. Umangat ang kamay niya at nagtangkang abutin ang kamay ko pero agad ding binawi at inihawak na lang sa batok.

"Hindi ka ba magsasalita?" nakakunot kong tanong.

That was the only time he lifted his eyes on me. "I don't want to interrupt you while you're talking."

"I'm done talking."

"Bakit... hinihila niya pababa ang strap ng damit mo kanina?" maingat niyang tanong.

Napahinga ako nang malalim at napatingin sa paligid. I wouldn't tell him that I purposely did that to my dress and Ajasiel was just pulling it down further to ridicule him.

"He was... he was just trying to fix my dress."

Ah, talaga Izzy? You're still trying to cover him up after telling Axe that his brother was doing it to provoke him?

"That's not what I saw," he mumbled, hands finally extending to hold me on my waist. "Hinihila niya..."

Kinagat ko nang mariin ang labi. He was drawing me toward him so I could sit on his thigh widely separated from the other.

"Right. Hinihila niya pero nakababa na iyon kanina pa."

The fold on his forehead surfaced whilst staring at my shoulder. "HIndi naman yata dapat nakababa talaga."

"Hindi nga. Sinadya ko lang ibaba," pasungit kong sinabi at ipinagkrus ang mga braso sa tapat ng dibdib. "And don't even ask me why 'cause I'm not gonna tell you the reason."

His eyes fluttered from my shoulder to my chest, but he abruptly brought them to my face.

"I'm wearing nipple tapes. Don't start me with my bra again."

Kumurba nang kaunti ang kanyang labi. Ang kamay niya ay nakapatong sa tuhod ko habang patagilid akong nakaupo sa kandungan niya. His other hand was resting at the small of my back.

"You didn't tell me you'd come here. Did you get enough sleep today?" he asked in a soothing tone.

Napatayo ako roon nang may naalala. "Oo nga pala! Hindi ba ay may ginagawa kayo ng bisita mo? Nasaan na siya? Iniwan mo?"

"Ah... I forgot about her," bulong niya at napangiwi bago tumayo. "Kukunin ko lang sana ang telepono ko rito sa kuwarto nang nakita ko kayo."

"Uhuh. You didn't tell me about it."

Kinuha niya na ang phone sa side table at lumapit muli sa akin, ang isang kamay ay gumapang sa aking balikat.

"I'm sorry. I was just about to text you. Hindi ko siya inaasahang pumunta rito."

"Paanong hindi inaasahan? Ano 'yon? Bigla na lang siyang pumunta rito nang hindi mo alam?"

Giniya niya na ako palabas ng kuwarto. Nakalabi pa rin ako at diretso ang tingin.
