CHAPTER 15

VAUGHN CRAIG's POV

It's been days since Natalia live with me. I have no idea what's going on, but there was a strange feeling that I am kinda enjoying it. Well, sex with her has been the best so far.

"Dude, are you okay?" Agad akong bumalik sa ulirat at napatitig kay Terrence na nakangisi. Yeah, right. "How's Natalia?"

"She's fine," tipid na sagot ko lang at wala rin naman akong balak pa pahabain ang pag-uusap namin.

"Fine?" Nagtaas siya ng kilay pero umismid lang ako. Well yeah, he's an asshole like me, what can I expect from him, huh? "So, how was she?"

"What do you mean how was she?" Kumunot ako at malakas naman siyang napahagalpak nang tawa.

"You're losing it, dude." Malakas na naman siyang natawa and all I wanted to do is punch him in the face.

"How was sex with her? 'Di ba iyon lang naman ang gusto mo?" natatawa pa ring sabi niya sabay umiling-iling.

Sumimangot ako and I felt weird. Bakit nga ba parang awkward pag-usapan ang bagay na 'yun with him?

"I am not talking about my sex life here, Lee especially not with a moron like you."

"What—?" Malakas na naman siyang natawa. Jeez, what the hell is wrong with him?

"You sounded like Ton. You have the symptoms, dude." Halos mamula na siya kakatawa at hindi ko pa rin maintindihan ang sinasabi niya.

"I don't know what you are talking about." Umismid ako at inubos ang juice na nasa harapan ko. Ano ba kasing ginagawa niya rito sa opisina ko? Istorbo!

"It was so easy for you to talk about sex with other girls, but now? Natalia must be really special, huh?"

"You know what, you're interrupting my work. I would be glad if you'll get your ass out here and leave me alone," masungit ko pang sabi at sa totoo lang ay ayoko ring makipag-asaran.

"You look blooming, dude. Nagdadalaga ka na!"

Agad kong kinuha ang ballpen malapit sa akin at ibinato iyon sa kanya. Natatawa siyang tumayo at inayos ang kanyang suit.

"Ang pikon naman! I wonder kung ganyan ka rin kapag si Ton naman ang nang-alaska sa'yo."

"You won't tell him anything!" banta ko pa at malakas na naman siyang natawa.

"You like Natalia. That one thing is for sure," sigurado pa niyang sabi sabay paatras na naglakad. "It's time, dude. It's time that you settle for just one girl."

"I'm not prince charming, asshole."

"I think you're becoming one," tawang-tawa pa rin niyang sabi at noon na tuluyang lumabas ng opisina.

No. I like Natalia? Yes.

But love? No. I love Sam.

But I really like Natalia.

A lot.

A whole fvcking lot.

I am in serious trouble, aren't I?

Jeez, bakit ba ako nagpapaniwala kay Terrence? I am enjoying this kind of relationship with Natalia but there was definitely nothing more on it. It's just lust. Sooner or later, magsasawa rin ako at maghahanap nang ibang babaeng ikakama.

Inalog ko ang ulo ko at muling itinuon ang atensyon sa pagta-trabaho.
