Surprise Connection: Unanticipated Love (BXB)

Chapter 2

Few days later

"Fuck this chemistry. So complicated." I sigh and turn the book and put it away from me.

"Hey, you two. What are you still doing in the floor? it's almost time, get your ass up."

I look up and saw Reign's stress face.

"Kei, shut up. Hindi ka pa rin naman tapos sa activity, what if gawin mo na rin?" Reign sarcastically say.

"Manahimik kayo, tapos na ako. Bilisan n'yo d'yan. Gusto ko nang umuwi."

"Perks of being smartass. Help us when we got in to the dorm."

"Hell no, do it yourself. I'm going to my mom's house later. So go on without me."

"Ay oo nga pala, 'di ba yung bahay n'yo ay parehong bayan ng tattoo shop nila Sid? nalimutan ko rin."

Oh... seems like he's right.

"I guess so... nothing's interesting though. I'm going now. Take care, you two." I wave then goodbye and they fare me goodbye as well.

I took my coat and wallet and decided to just walk since it's still early and it's really safe to walk here kahit na gabi kasi may rumo-rondang police officer dito.

I walk and walk hanggang sa nakita ko nga yung shop na pinuntahan namin nung kabilang linggo. As I walk by, Samuel comes out the door and saw me. Oh, what a coincidence.

He immediately smile and wave. I waved back at him and he walked towards me.

"Hey, Hebreo. Long time no see. Anong ginagawa mo rito? Mag gagabi na ah?"

"Ah... Papunta ako kay mama, bibisitahin ko lang. I also missed her so..."

"I see, I'm also out now from my shift. Wanna go grab some drinks muna? I'll come with you, that is, if it's okay?" He smile awkwardly at me.

"Oh, it's okay."

We walked beside each other in silence but not awkward. Maybe because of the atmosphere, it's so chill here and relaxing.

"Uh... Hebreo, where exactly your Mom live?"

"In South, Sylvo residence."

"Oh, it's also the same direction as my house. Guess we'll go there together. Then that explains you're Mrs. Henna's son that she always talk about."

"Oh, she do that?"

"Yeah, and I didn't expect it to be you. Well, she didn't give a picture so I don't know your appearance. You're attractive."

"Did you say that out loud?"

"Say out loud wha— oh... fuck, forget about it. It's— it's embarrassing." I chuckled and look at him.

"It's okay, you are too. Not gonna lie."

"Oh... you think so?" He blushed and scratch his cheeks.

"Yeah, now let's get going now. It's getting late."

...

"I'm here now, where do you live?"

"Oh yeah, I lived southeast, it's near here. I gotta go, my father's waiting for me."

"Uhn... take care, Samuel. Thanks for the company." He wave at me and I waved back. As he turn around, I can't help but check him out. He's well built and have muscles but he still looks soft.

"Uh... what am I saying?" I go inside Mom's house and there, she greet me. We talk about how my day and about her day. And somehow my tounge slip and say Samuel's name.
