Chapter 28 - Deal

KISSING MY KRYPTONITE

(A/N: UNEDITED. MEDYO MAHABA. HAPPY PRIDE MONTH, GAYS! XOXO.)

"I hate you.." she frowns, shoving me away.

My body fell back slightly, I stood up looking at her face, "I know."

"I hate this," muling bulong niya sa sarili niya, tatayo na sana siya pero pinigilan ko.

"Stop right there, ma'am.."

"Are you done yet?" she scoffs under her long eyelashes.

With a little grin on my face, I held out my hands in front of her, "Professor Cordova you're under arrest for being too cute, now put your hands where I can hold them."

"No," was all she said like a mad baby.

"Baka maging kriminal na tayong dalawa rito kapag hindi ka pa sumunod, ma'am," tinaasan ko siya ng kilay.

She gave me a questioning look, "Hell are you talking?"

"Kiss?" ngumisi ako. "Yung nakaw ba.."

Her face contorted, a playful grin painted my lips.

"Not from a straight woman like me," she gave me her hands, I gently pulled her up.

Pangalawang beses niya na 'tong sinabi.

"Ruler nalang straight ngayon ma'am, hindi pa sure," balik ko sa kanya, naglalakad na kami papasok sa loob.

Napaisip ako saglit, noong bachelorette party pa ni Ma'am Kelani niya sinabing straight siya. I honestly don't mind how she identifies herself. I'm just feeling a little hopeless as the more she mentions it, the further I take that to mean my charm has no influence to her. Ang lakas ko sa ibang mga babae regardless of their gender identities dahil kahit straight pa 'yan nagkakandarapa sa 'kin tapos sa kanya kahit sobrang ganda ko wala pa rin akong laban.

Breaking through my thoughts, I ask, "Noong bachelorette night ni Ma'am Kelani, do you still remember what happened after the party?"

"Not all the sequence of events," she replies. "Why?"

Seryoso? Lasing siya no'n, posible. This needs to be considered, not everyone who gets drunk is like me, some individuals are intolerant with heavy alcohol as it can lead to memory lapses.

"Yung nangyari sa bahay niyo noong hinatid kita, naalala mo pa ba, ma'am?"

"Which one?" she asks in nonchalance.

"The kiss?"

She stops walking and turns to see me. Ano'ng klaseng tingin 'yan? Rafa Eli Cordova, malditang propesora ka 'wag mo sabihing nakalimutan mo?!

"Who kissed who?" nalilito pa niyang tanong.

Holy hell? Fact of the matter, we didn't kiss. Ako ang nagnakaw ng halik, hindi kami naghalikan, walang gano'n. Kung totoong hindi niya 'yon naaalala, tamang 'wag ko nang ipaalala o banggitin pa sa kanya ang tungkol do'n. I was sober alright, she's not, I kissed her without her consent twice over and that's a no - no.

Kailangan kong isaulo na noong unang ginawa ko 'yon sa shower room ay nakatanggap ako ng suntok ng kamatayan. Akala ko 'yung nabasag na pinggan ang babaunin kong sikreto hanggang sa hukay ko, ito pa pala talaga.

"Wala, ang sabi ko ikaw ang first kiss ko," napakagat ako sa ibabang labi ko dahil sa malaking kasinungalingan. "How about you?"

The way I asked it parang nagtatanong lang ako kung kumusta na ba siya. Gusto kong humagalpak sa hitsura niya ngayon pero ayokong masapak, muka na naman siyang mangangarate.
