Unclaimed Love

Chapter 17

Amanda

I have never been this insecure in my whole life. That girl makes me feel things that's unknown to me.

She feels like her heart is about to explode with the sight infront. Theo is kissing her and she's letting him.

Damn!

Pinaghahampas ni Amanda ang manibela sa frustration na nararamdaman. Hindi nga siya naging ganito noon kay Audrey even though she was the first love of hers. Nag kakilala sila noon dahil sa isang art exhibit and their parents are business partners, since then they became close with each other. Days passed and hindi niya na mamalayang nahuhulog na siya sa kaibigan, she was confused about it at first but then she was able to figure her feelings. To cut the story short she confessed it to Audrey but then that woman being so cunning she lured Amanda. Pinaikot lang siya nito para makuha ang mga sensitibong impormasyon na ginamit ng pamilya nito laban sa ama ni Amanda. And that was the start of her misery to pay for her forgiveness she married Eric according to his father's command.

Hinintay muna ni Amanda na mawala ang dalawa sa harapan niya bago mapag pasyahang lumabas sa kanyang sasakyan. She called her co professor for a last minute change of schedule total this will be the last day for this sem at bakasyon na.

"Hala bakit si prof davis bigla?" mga bulong bulong ng mga estudyante niya na hindi niya lang pinansin.

"she's so damn gorgeous, kaso masungit." hindi iyon naka alpas sa kayang tenga pero balewala lang siyang nag lakad like she is owning a runway.

Who says that your outside affairs won't ever affect your job? Bullshit.

Dahil sa mga oras na ito ay lalo pang nadagdagan ang pag ka inis niya kay Charlie.
Bakit ba napakaraming umaaligid dito?  She cant help but to utter. Nag pulasan ang mga estudyante sa kanilang mga upuan. She caught Charlie's eyes. Para itong natakot sa kanya which only made her feel worse. She can bear the fear of other people towards her, she's been treated differently at wala siyang pakialam dun kung halos lahat man ay takot kay Amanda pero isang tao lamang ang ayaw niyang ganun din ang iparamdam sa kanya.

"focus on your task." she said coldly. Nahuhuli niya ang nga nagtatakang tingin ni Charlie sa kanya.
She wanted to hurt the girl for bruising her ego, but she just can't. She's afraid that Charlie will leave her again. Their age gap is making her more insecure. Napakarami ng pwedeng makilala pa ni Charlie, hindi lang si Theo ang pwedeng umagaw rito sa kanya.

She walks into her direction. Naririnig niya rin ang mga pasimpleng pangongopya ng mga Katabi nito. It irks her, it's their job to study but look at what they're doing? Cheating on her damn exam. Kaya niya pinahirapan talaga ang pag gawa ng mga pagsusulit. The girl gazed at her. Medyo nagulat pa ito. She smirked nang makitang hinagod siya nito ng tingin. She purposedly removed her coat. Pakiramdam niya ay nag mumukha siyang matanda na balot na balot. She is very particular with her routine and lifestyle that's why it's not evident that she's on her advancing age.

"I'm still not done ma'am." tanging sambit lang nito at nag iwas ng tingin. Kung wala lang itong kasalanan sa kanya ngayon ay baka pinaulanan niya ito ng mga halik. Puro tamang sagot ang nasa papel nito kahit pa man ay may mga naiwang blanko pa ang iba.

Walang ginawa si Amanda kundi ang ikumpara ang sarili sa mga nakakasalamuha ni Charlie. Her friends are obviously having a hots on her, but Charlie being so naive is oblivious about it.
Natapos na ang oras at alam niyang may mga estudyanteng tamad na naman ang magsasayang ng oras at pera sa mga clubs na nasa paligid ng unibersidad dahil tapos na ang isa sa pinakamahirap na subject nila ngayon. She used to do that as well back in the days sa  States nung nag aaral pa siya.
Hindi niya na nilingon pa si Charlie at dere-deretso nang lumabas sa silid. She stopped on her track nang mapag tantong naiwan niya pala ang mac book na dala sa podium. She stride back to room and only to see another arms wrapping comfortably on Charlie's. It infuriates her even more. Hindi niya mahihintay pang mag kita sila sa kanyang penthouse. She wanted to punish the girl really hard.
At dun niya na ginawa ang hindi niya talaga gawain.
