Chapter 9

Olivia POV:

Grabe na talaga ang pagpipigil kong mapangiti habang tinatahak namin ang daan papuntang yacht daw bago kami mag-snorkeling. Actually, nakasakay kami ngayon sa kabayo niyang Tee lang ang pinangalanan niya, kaya nasa likuran ko siya ngayon.

"Reighn asked me before what am I gonna name to my horse and I got confused like. Oh? Do I have to give name to the horse I bought? Then he got mad." Pagku-kwento niya sakin sa likuran ko ng unang araw niya rito sa Club.

Pero mukhang hindi ko na mapipigilan ang mapangiti sa mga kinu-kwento niya puro kasi pala siya kabulastogan noong bagong salta siya rito last year. "What did he do to you?"

"Well, Reighn has a very long patience although you cannot see that in his face because he always quickly frown. Now I am wondering would he still be like that once he fall in love?" Sagot naman niya sa likod ko saka kami kumaliwa kung saan dito rin ang dinaanan ko noong pabalik na ako sa bahay ni Ed, yung may nangyari saming dalawa.

"He hasn't fallen in love yet?" Usisa ko pa at least sa mga kinu-kwento niya makikilala ko rin ang mga kaibigan niya. Sinabi nga niya sakin na marami ang wala kahapon.

"I don't know only his brother and cousins knew about that because everytime we talked about his love life they wouldn't open their mouth." Sagot niya sakin na nasa boses niya rin ang paghihinala. "But silence means yes most of the times so I conclude he already fallen in love but maybe something came up that is why they don't want to talk about it." Nadaanan na namin ang bahay ni Eduard. Hindi yung literal dahil nasa unahan sa may kaliwa kami dumaan, eh.

"All of you are handsome. You has your own way of telling everyone that you're handsome so I'm sure every girls likes you so that includes him." Comment ko lang sa kanya saka namin nadaanan ang bahay ni Gavriel. Napalingon ako sa isang path na ginawang garden path ang design ng lugar papunta sa gray na malaking bahay.

"That's Ashes house. They are leaving the Club. They're going to Baguio for Ash's company." Sabi naman niya sakin na napansin niya pala ang pagtingin ko roon sa daan ng bahay ng Ashton Dornman. "But admit it I am the most handsome of them all, right?" Tanong pa niya sabay silip sa mukha ko sa may kanan.

Napangiti naman ako saka ko siya siniringan. "Yes." Sagot ko lang sa kanya pero ang tuwang-tuwa na niya kaya natawa na lang ako. "So among your friends. Who was absent last night?"

Tuloyan na kaming nakalabas doon kaya nasa field na kami kung asan may lawn springkles
ang mga tubig sa buong field tas may babae namang tinuturoan ang mga lalaki ng mga bubunoting mga dahon doon.

"I told you they are a lot like Melchor Arvay, Matheo Smith didn't even came along with Darrah, Maxwell Fall, Jin Lei or Lei Jin, Allen Ghazarian, Isaac Velky, Christian Forester, Zenrodje Benet, Logan Thompson, Kayson Sari, Cyril Fedorka." Nawala ang ngiti ko sa pangalang yun. "Fritz Williams, Bryn Floyd and Brice Cordon. I guess that's all of them."

"They were indeed a lot." Sagot ko lang sa sinabi niya.

"You know Cherry, right?" Biglang alanganin ang pagtatanong niya sakin non.

"The beautiful lady with short curly hair?" Balik tanong ko naman sa kanya na nasa Coliseum na nila kami pero dadaanan lang namin yun.

"Yes, she's Cyril Fedorka's younger sister." Natigilan ako sa sinabi niya kaya bahagya ko siyang nilingon sa likod ko nang makahupa.

"They're already at the Club?" Tanong ko.

"I don't know because I only saw Cherry since yesterday if Cyril came with her because it is also impossible that Cyril let Cherry came at the Club alone he never showed himself to everyone yet." Paliwanag naman niya sakin. "You know even though Cyril and Cherry are ruthless siblings. Cyril is still under by his sister that is why I am sure he came along with her."
