Sailing Above the Clouds

CHAPTER 12

"Overtime?" Parker asked me the moment I went out at kinuha niya sa akin ang dala kong mga gamit sa project ko.

"Oo eh, kailangan." Tumango siya at nagsimula na kaming maglakad palabas ng school at mukhang hinihintay siya nila Wendy.

"Parker! Kanina ka pa namin hinihintay!" Daisy said.

"I already told you guys, hindi ako sasabay." Parker said and hold my bag again ano bang akala nito tatakas pa 'rin ako?

"C'mon Parker pwede naman kaming sumabay diba?" Daisy said and smiled at me. "It's okay right?"

"Yeah, why not?" I smiled and Parker just pulled me and we started walking again.

"Maybe we should eat somewhere else, guys. Let them have some space." Alec said.

"Why? We're friends here! C'mon!" Zayne laughed and umakbay kay Parker. "Is there something between you and Eloisa? Akala ko si Wendy?"

"Zayne, wala namang sinabi si Parker na gusto niya si Wendy ah?" Alec said and mukhang magkaka-away pa sila.

"What now? So pinapaasa si Wendy?!" Daisy said and pointed me. "Just because of this HUMSS student?!"

"Parker never said that he likes Wendy! C'mon guys! Open your eyes!" Alec looks frustrated and I looked at Parker he's looking somewhere and I can see how his jaw clenched.

"Oh my God! Wendy are you crying?!" Daisy asked at dinamayan si Wendy. Napansin kong ang raming nanunuod sa amin. "Eloisa, right from the start you're already aware that Wendy likes Parker!"

"I-I'm sorry." I said and bit my lower lip.

"Don't be." Parker said and looked at Wendy. "Sorry if you think that my actions means something but i'm not sorry for liking Eloisa."

"Is that it?! Eloisa if you still have enough decency in your body hindi mo papatulan si Parker!" Daisy looks really mad and I just can't help it naawa ako kay Wendy habang nakatingin sa kanya.

"M-Maglunch na k-kayo." I said and turned my back but I felt Parker hold my bag again and pulled me.

"The way I treated you is the same way I treated Daisy, so it's not my fault that you assumed." Parker looked at me. "Let's go."

He pulled me at habang naglalakad lang kami ay nakatingin lang ako sa kanya at parang inis na inis siya so I hold his hand and smiled at him.

"Where do you want to eat?" He asked me and pinagpalit niya kami ng pwesto dahil ako ang nasa tabi ng daanan ng mga sasakyan.

"I-Ikaw ba?"

"I don't also know kaya ikaw ang tinatanong ko." I bit my lip and tried to think of a restaurant that I liked so much.

Napagdesisyunan nalang namin na kumain sa Mall kaya sumakay pa kami ng jeep dahil two hours naman ang vacant at ang daming studyanteng mga asa Mall.

"Jollibee tayo!"

"Kung saan mo gusto." He pulled me again dahil nalalayo na naman ako sa kanya at tumingin siya sa akin. "Wag ka nga layo ng layo."

"Ang clingy niyo naman po pala, Mr. Aquino."

He just chuckled and pumasok na kami sa Jollibee at pinaupo niya na ako habang siya naman ay um-order. Napansin ko ang mga babaeng studyante na kinukuhanan siya ng picture mukhang mga napopogian.

Parker started walking, holding our tray of food and he looks so handsome damn it tapos nakatitig lang siya sa aking mga mata. Ang epal! Kinikilig ako!
