My Sister's Boyfriend Is A Big Red Flag

C H A P T E R O N E

•CAFÉ'S BLUEBERRY CAKE•

DROWNED IN deep thoughts, Dage ate the cake besides him. Not knowing if that is his order or not. Nangunot ang noo niya ng malasahan ang blueberries at cheese sa cake kahit na chocolate-strawberry cake ang inorder niya pero hindi na lang niya iyon pinansin at bumuntong hininga.

He sighed, “What should i do...? What i should do...?” he voice his thoughts out loud. He sighed again as there's no idea come out on his mind on what to do to her sister's sayings.

Now, at this day, he will haved to meet his younger sister's loving and dearest boyfriend who she always talked about.

Someone snapped behind him. Bigla na lang siya nitong dinambahan na parang hindi ito mabigat. Napa-igik naman siya sa sakit at agad sinamaan ng tingin kung sino man ito.

And it was no other than his beloved best friend, Axziel James Leonard X. Quirito. Ang mga mata nito ay tila nawala na sa sobrang pagkakangiti.

Grinning, “Hey, my best of friends, how's your day? Oh, looks like your problems haven't abandoned you yet. Oh, i feel so lucky that my problems broked up with me before i break them off.” he sarcastically shared his life story lately.

Tinaasan niya lang ito ng gitnang daliri na ikinatawa nito, “Tsk, bad ka, ah! Uy, ano iyan...? Blueberry cheese cake? Akala ko ba ayaw mo sa ganyan? Change of taste?” sunod-sunod niyang tanong.

Nangunot naman ang noo ko at tinignan ang kinakain kong cake, gano'n na lang ang gulat ko nang makitang Blueberry Cheese Cake nga iyon. Na-aalarma akong tumingin sa paligid at gano'n na lang ang pagkatigil ng mundo ko ng makita ang isang lalaking may pares ng lilang mga mata na tila ba nanghihikayat na mahulog ako sa nagmamay-ari nito.

I was lost in thoughts and couldn't speak any words even if my mind tells me to.

He smiled sweetly, making my jaw dropped and my soul abandoned me for a second.

I heard James laughing, “Uy! Grabe namang tingin iyan! Grabe talaga, oo, grabe ka na, James. Ako talaga iyong grabe, oum, ako.” rinig ko pang sabi niya at mahihimigan ko ang pang-aasar doon.

Bigla na lang bumalik ang kaluluwa ko at para akong nahiya na ewan. Napangiwi ako and with my face being not so sure what i should say. I face the waitress who's giggling like a teenager who's watching a favorite romance series as she look at me and the stranger who made my soul abandoned me for a seconds. I pressed my lips together and lick my lower lip. I lowered my head as i shyly looked at the man.

I faked a cough, “S-Sorry, i-i didn't know... I-Its your's.” i tried to conquered my sense and apologize.

He chuckled, his deep and sharp adam's apple revealed as he look up while chuckling and so as his jawline. Goodness! How could someone be that hawt?!

James's face grimaced as he looks at me as if saying we're so cringe, “What a cringe highschool love series cliché.” he commented.

I glared at him which made him maked a face but stopped when he noticed he's being stared by an tall, masculine and handsome looking guy who has amber eyes. His green eyes blink on him and slowly, he move himself closer to me. As if hiding or protecting his self.

He leaned to me, “Grabehan naman pala sa mga gwapo dito sa café na ito, eh. Nangangain atah sila ng mga inosente, best friend ko. Kailangan atah nating pumunta sa ibang café, baka makain pa tayo dito, eh.” he whispered.
