It's way past their lunch break pero hindi pa din dumadating si Rayko.
"Girl,sigurado ka ba na hindi ka pa kakain?" Cutie asked concerned
"Ayos lang.Hindi pa naman ako gutom" she scrape a smile. Magkakaroon naman ba siya ng gana sa pagkain sa sobrang pag-aala (-_-)
Patuloy lang siya sa pagtype sa kanyang keyboard at walang balak na tumigil sa trabaho.
Pinagmasdan ng tatlong bakla si Sayvel na nakakunot lang ang noo habang tutok na tutok sa ginagawa niya. It seemed to look that she's too focused on what she's doing pero wala na talagang maintindihan sa tintype niya.
"Ganyan kapag magjowa ka ng seryoso Danny, yung halos hindi ka na makakain sa pag-aalala. Hindi ka ba natatakot?" may pagbabanta na sabi ni Annabele
Danny thought about it and tried to imagine him being worried like that over a girl. He smirked and shrugged nonchalantly.
"Eww" Cutie spat disgust
"Huwag umasa gurl.Imposible na magustuhan ka ni Katty remember highblood yun parati sayo"
Danny just sent them a death glare.
Napatigil ang chismisan ng tatlo nang biglang tumayo si Sayvel
"Early out ako ngayon. Pakisabi nalang sa boss natin i-deduct niya nalang sa salary ko"
With that,she hurriedly went out the place.
She doesn't care about the salary anyway. She can lose the money but not the person she loves.
She have a bad feeling that Clin has something to do with this. If he dares to lay a finger even on one single strand of Rayko's hair--
he'll be good as dead.
The moment the elevator opened, handa na sana siyang sumugod palabas pero bumungad sa kanya si Rayko na may dala-dalang plastic sa magkabilang kamay.
"You-" gulat niyang bulalas
"San ka pupunta babe?" he asked.Halata sa mata nito ang pagtataka
"I was about to-"
"about to? may kikitain ka na ibang lalaki?" his eyebrow raised a fraction "o babae?"
"I was about to follow you" she glared at him
Pumasok ito sa elavator at agad na pinindot ang close button.He then sighed and planted a gentle kiss on her cheeks
"Sorry babe.May rally kasi sa labas nakipagbunuan pa nga ako sa mga tao para makabalik dito"
"Oh." So she got worried over nothing.Nice.
"Gutom ka na ba?" he asked concerned.
Her belly made a displeasing sound as a response.
"I'll take that as a yes" he chuckled
***
"Kung gusto mong malaman ang katotohanan,sumama ka sakin"
Clin was looking at him with a challenge on his eyes.
Matapang na sinalubong ni Rayko ang mga titig nito. He smiled. Smiled but his eyes somehow looked scary. You could almost see the dark aura seeping out from him.
"Ganito ka na ba kadesperado na manira ng relasyon" He smirked.
Clin was taken aback by his words. Hindi niya inasahan ang sinabi nito.Yung Rayko na kilala niya,duwag at hindi ganito katapang. But he kept a straight face not showing even the slightest emotion.
"Do you want steal my woman?"Nagigting ang panga ni Rayko nang pinakawalan ang mga salita na yun at nawala na ang ngiti niya.
Natawa ito nang di makasagot si Clin.
"Wag mo nang isipin kasi hinding hindi mo kami masisira.Nagsasayang ka lang ng panahon"
Walang pasabing iniwan niya si Clin sa kinaroroonan nito.
Kung hindi lang sana siya inabala nung lalaki na yun kanina,hindi sana siya naabutan ng rally.
"Di mo gusto ang pagkain?" puna ni Sayvel.
Siguro nakasimagot siya habang kumakain.
He tapped her cheeks softly "hindi naiirita lang ako dun sa rally.halos maipit ipit ako babee" he pouted
"Itsura mong lalaki ka" she said apparently displeased
Natawa lang siya kasi parang nairita ito sa pagpapa-cute niya.
He watched her as she munched her food aggresively.Alam mo yung para itong bibatayin sa paraan ng pagkain nito.Ibang klase
"Huwag mo kong panoorin kumain,di ka niyan mabubusog" she said after a while
Bilib din siya sa babaeng to,alam na nakatitig siya kahit di ito nakatingin sakanya.
"You love it when I stare at you" pangaasar niya
Sinalubong lang nito ang titig niya. "Eat" she glared. Natawa siya kasi kitang kita niya ang pagkislap sa mga mata nito.Kungwari pacold-cold pa eh
"May itatanong muna ako"
"hmm?"
"May gusto sayo yung Clin no?"
Nabilaukan ito sa itinanong niya at biglang pinagsusuntok ang dibdib. Agad niya naman itong inabutan ng tubig "ano ba yan babe, namention ko lang pangalan nung damuhong yun , nabilaukan ka na?"
"Why are you even mentioning his name? Ikaw ata may gusto dun eh" she backfires
"Ano-"
"Just please. Ayoko marinig pangalan niya babe"
"bakit ka nagagalit"
"I'm not mad"
"you are" he insist
"I'm not"
"you are--"
You can guess why he sudddenly stopped.
She smiled sweetly pulling away "A kiss is the best way to turn down an argument"
then she continues eating like nothing had happened.
The guts of this woman is really overwhelming-- and he loves it.HE LOVES HER.
and he will trust her.
Ano man yung sasabihin sa kanya ni Clin kanina,kung totoo man ito o hindi na may tinatago sa kanya si Sayvel.Wala na siyang pakialam.
He will only believe her words and no one else.
***
Pakauwi nila, agad na pumunta si Sayvel sa kwarto ni Katty.
She was surprised to find the room so organized...and empty.
Literally empty.Na para bang walang nagmay-ari ng kwarto.
"Babe" mahinang tawag ni Sayvel sa kasintahan
Saktong kababa lang din ni Rayko galing sa hagdan na kagagaling lang sa pagshower at nagpupunas ng twalya sa buhok
"Babe!" she exclaimed.Napatakbo si Rayko sa pagsigaw niya,only too see what surprised her.
Natigilan silang dalawa.Hindi makapaniwalang nakatingin sa mga compartment na wala nang laman.
"wala na yung mga gamit niya" wala sa sariling sambit ni Rayko
"I don't ..I don't understand"
Parang bumigat ang paghinga niya sa pagmasid sa kasintahan.Nakaluhod ito at nangingilid ang luha.
They were already too attached to Katty.She's like a family.
She can be dumb sometimes .Her laugh is hilarious and she can be really annoying more than a toddler.
But they both really value her.More than a treasure.
Is it only them? Doesn't she feel the same way?
Paano nitong naatim na hindi man lang magpaalam.
