The Last Piece I : Call of the Past

CHAPTER 38

I'm now here peaceful sitting as I watch the ocean and just keep on strumming the guitar.

I excused myself kanina habang na sa dining kami. It was after dinner. My kanya kanya kaming buhay ngayon, some of them are planning to go to the near resto, ang iba naman ay gusto kumain sa kabila, For sure Alijah, Caelum, kyler, Drystan, Alejandro is going manwhoring again.

Ang iba naman ay gusto mag tour tour at sila naman ni TOP ay nasa kabilang resto din. I'm strumming my guitar here harmonically nang my narinig akong boses sa likuran ko.

I didn't bother to look at him, dahil tuwing nakikita ko siya ay may naalala ko and kung saan talaga kaming ginawa ni Amanda na kapre sa description niya dahil nakita niya kami sa veranda.

I was so shy that time at wala akong alam kung ano ang gagawin ko. That bakla even blackmailed me na kapag hindi ako sumama sa kanya sa mall ay ipagsasabi niya ang he called 'KAPRE' sa veranda kaya ay sumama na lang ako and karma muntik namatay!

And ang ending iba pala ang ibig niyang sabihin.

"Good evening, masama naman siguro na mag isa lang ang magandang binibini dito" panimula niya at umupo sa tabi ko. Umangat ako ng tingin sa kanya. And smiled at him.

"Okay ka lang ba? ang tahimik mo habang kumakain ka kanina ni hindi mo nga napapansin ang pagtawag ni Amanda sayo? do you have a problem sweetie?" He asked in a manly tone.

He gently held my chin. Here he goes with his undearments again.

"Nope nothing, ayoko lang makipag usap!" simpleng tugon ko. Bago ngumiti.

But he wasn't convinced. He look at me with a worried expression. Malapit lang ang distansya ng mukha namin since he's looking at me intently and I felt uneasy while strumming the guitar at katabi ko siya that's why makikita niya ako.

"You're beautiful!" he uttered. 
Agh! Gideon I know the night is sweet and romantic and it's cooperating with your fluttering words. Stop it!

"You're very beautiful to the point na hindi mo matatago sakin, kung may problema ka ba o my bumabagabag sayo" he seriously said. At doon na ako napatingin sa kanya.

"Anong ibig mong sabihin?" I asked in confusion.

"You cannot conceal it, I can see it through your face, your angelic face tells me that something's bothering you, ni hindi ka nga makakain eh, big deal ba sayong batang iyon?" dagdag pa niya. He emphasize the word BATA at hindi naman siguro ako nagmalikmata but I saw him stiffened.

When he said the last phrase. Tango lang ang tugon ko sa kanya. Yes! it bothers me, malakas ang kutob ko na may kilala silang bata noon, at hindi ko lang maintindihan kung bakit hindi ko kilala ang bata but there's something inside me that the kid is special.

Parang gusto ko malaman ngunit wala na akong nalaman na ibang detalye. That's why I ended up with the same answers. Wala, hindi, I don't know and a big QUESTION MARK.

"Forget about it Samantha  wala kang makukuha diyan, it's nothing important!" He said.

Yan! din ang sinabi ni Alijah sakin. Tumahimik na lang ako nang ilang saglit.

"You know what bakit hindi na lang tayo mag mash up" he suggested. He smiled and wink at me. Sebastian's a good singer. Sige nga labanan natin, yumabang tayo kahit ngayon lang even were not competing.

"Sige you go first, ako dudugtong!" He said.

Okay! this isn't the first time that we sang together pero tangina nahihiya ako. He was looking at me again and I felt so uneasy about it. Bwesit ikaw pa naman tignan nang lalaking to!
