Ignored by Mr. Famous (ASHLEY 5)☑

Chapter 21

Chapter 21

Last Night was not blur to me, I can exactly remember every details of it! Damn. Hindi ako makapaniwalang naging ganun ako kay Nic! I talk like Sex was just nothing and it's no big deal! Ano nalang kaya ang iisipin ni Nic? Na baka kung kani-kaninong lalaki ko lang binibigay ang katawan ko?! Good god...

I remember him saying something about marriage before leaving me that night, at kahit pa naalala ko ang bawat salitang binitawan niya ay pilit ko itong kinalimutan, because I know, he can't be serious, and I'll end up broken again if I'll believe him. He said he loves me... pero bakit... di ko maramdaman? He is obviously lying.

Noon hindi naman siya nagsininguling sa akin, because he didn't even talk to me, diba? Kinakausap niya ako noon para sumbatan kung gaano ako kalandi. That thought made me smile with bitterness. He used to Ignore me before, the Mr. Famous Used to Ignore the plain me before,  hindi niya ako halos kinakausap at di halos matingnan, so what's with the change?

"Kaya nga napaka-impossibleng mahal ka niya diba?"

I sigh. I agree with her. "Tama ka."

Tinitigan pa ako saglit ni lalaine saka nagpatuloy sa paglalagay ng eye liner sa kaniyang mga mata. "You agreed but what's with that long face?"

"I... I don't know, Lalaine.." naguguluhan kong sabi at inabot na ang magazine na nasa coffee table lang.

My feet are on the coffe table too, nandito kasi ako ngayon sa mini sala ng kwarto ko, Nagvi-video call sa kaibigan kong mukhang mas malala pa ang problema sa akin. Binasa ko ang nakasulat sa cover ng magazine, It's all about businessmen.

"Basta, kung ako ikaw? Tapos lalapitan niya ako, sasabihin niyang, mahal kita pakasal tayo? Duh, isasampal ko sa kaniya ang singsing niya..."

I frown when I realized something...

"Don't tell me, nagpropose siya ng walang singsing?" I didn't respond. Nanlalaking mga matang nilagay niya ang dalawang kamay sa kaniyang bibig. "Omygod, he is such an ass! Paanong wala siyang singsing?! Naku, kung ako sayo? I would turn him down big time and if he still insists I'll tell him to fuck off."

Nag-usap pa kami ng nag-usap, we talk about a lot of things, napunta pa nga kami sa resulta ng check-up ko, and we both agree not to tell it to Jeremiah dahil kung anu-ano nanaman ang ipapainom sa akin, nun.

"Remember what I told you, Kezia. Lasing ka kagabi, so it's better if you pretend that you don't remember anything, keysa naman magsabi ka ng totoo."

Tumango ako, I agree with her. "Yeah, so, see you next week?"

Bigla siyang natigilan at mukhang may naalala. "A-ahm... I can't actually... nasa isang eroplano ako ngayon, and it's a long story.."

Mukhang hindi niya gustong pag-usapan ang nangyari kaya di na ako nagtanong. After talking to Lalaine, I felt better. Tama siya, If I won't face him right now, it means I remember what happened that night, and I need to pretend like nothing happened... I think.

I received a message from Nathaniel, just like yesterday, he asking when will I be back, I will just smile while reading his text, declaring that he miss me, I know it's just a friendly text, we talked about it so I put no malice on it. I ready myself, I wore something unrevealing, a pair of pajama and a shirt, I let my hair down, which is unusual for me, dahil mas sanay akong nakapony-tail ang buhok ko noon pa man, I took a glance at myself in the mirror to see if I look, ok, at ok naman so hinayaan ko nalang.

Huminga ako ng malalim saka pumasok sa isang souvenir shop kung saan nakatayo si Nic habang nakatingin sa mga paninda. I pretended that I didn't see him, pumunta muna ako sa pinaka-unang hanay ng mga paninda, which are keychains, nagpanggap akong namimili, then I secretly look at his way, he is still there looking for something.
