CHAPTER 44. Closer
THIRD PERSON POV
Nakatingin si Kevin sa asul na karagatan na malapit nang lamunin ng dilim. Another day is gonna pass again without him having to do something interesting.
Damn, this is boring unlike what I‘ve expected!
“Uhmm... H-Hi, Kevin...”
Mabilis itong lumingon sa kaniyang likuran nang mabosesan niya ang tumawag sa kaniya.
“Hey...” bati nito sa kay Kianna saka siya nginitian ng tipid.
What is Kianna doing here? Damn it. I‘m really not in the right mood to face her!
“You wanted to see the sunset, too?” tanong ng binata upang basagin ang katahimikan.
Ngumiti lang si Kianna saka ibinalik ang tingin sa dagat.
Here it comes again, something he does that confuses Kianna.
He seems friendly towards her sometimes. Siguro dahil friend siya ni Khali na ngayon ay close friend niya rin? O dahil classmate niya ito? But then also sometimes... he just act like he doesn‘t know Kianna.
Hindi ko alam pero kahit nginingitian niya ako ay pakiramdam ko napakalayo niya parin.
Katabi ko siya ngayon pero pakiramdam ko ang layo niya sakin...
“I was looking for you, to be honest...” tila nahihiya niyang pag-amin.
Napatingin si Kevin sa kaniya. “Is there something wrong?” tanong niya agad.
“Gusto sana kitang ayain manood ng live band.” matapang na sambit ni Kianna.
First time niyang makakausap si Kevin ng masinsinan at sila lang dalawa lang. Kaya todo na talaga ‘to!
“Oh...” aniya saka tumango-tango. “What time is it—”
“Huwag nalang siguro!” pagbawi naman ni Kianna saka ngumiti.
“Hmm...” dismayadong tumango si Kevin.
“I-I want to talk to you like this instead...” dagdag ni Kianna na ikinagulat ni Kevin ng bahagya.
Nanginginig ang mga kamay ng dalaga. Nagkukunwari lang siyang matapang ngunit kanina pa siya nanlalamig sa kinatatayuan niya.
He suddenly chuckled.
“Okay...” ani Kevin.
Bakit ganiyan siya sa akin? Sa ibang babae sobrang FC niya ha!
“I‘m pretty sure you couldn‘t even remember me but...” Kianna paused and looked up to him. “I confessed to you last month...”
Kevin stared at her with a straight face for a couple of seconds. He wasn‘t expecting for something like this to happened right now.
Ngumiti ang binata ngunit hindi siya lubos na natutuwa. May parte sa kaniya na nasasaktan kahit masaya siyang marinig muli ito sa kaniyang bibig.
