"No" mabilis kong sagot at lalampasan na sana si Raffy nang hawakan nito ang aking braso dahilan ng pagkatigil ko sa paglalakad

"Please"

"She said no" si Elowyn sabay bawi ng kamay ko mula kay Raffy

"Just a minute. May gusto lang akong sabihin"

"Sabihin mo ngayon"I glared at him

"Alone"

"That's a no" si Hailee naman ang sumagot dito

"You are not Daenah"

"She's my friend. She said no and I say no"

"I know what you did last school year Daenah"

"Really? Okay"

Muli akong naglakad paalis. Sumunod din naman kaagad sila Elowyn.

The audacity of that asshole to come near me and ask a time for me? If he didn't reject my offer last year it wouldn't be like this. Wala sanang video na lumabas at si Therese lang sana ang siniraan ko.

"Alam ko na ikaw ang nag-utos na gawan kami ng video at siraan. I can file a case for that and you know I can"

I sighed. Muli ko s'yang hinarap. Naalerto naman sila Penny.

"Daenah" they hissed in chorused

Hindi ko sila pinankinggan at nagsimula nang lumapit kay Raffy. I saw him smirked.

"Why? Cause your father is the mayor? Try harder, babe"I whispered at his face

Kung akala nito ay natatakot ako sa banta nya, then pwes! Nagkakamali s'ya. I don't have fear. And blackmailing won't work on me.

Bahagya itong napaurong.

"You can't make me do something I don't want to do"

Now, it's my time to smirk. Tinapik ko ang pisngi nito ng tatlong beses at muling tinalikuran.

My friends sighed in relief.

Hindi tumigil si Raffy sa kakahingi nito ng oras para makapag-usap kami. And I always rejected him. He can talk in front of my friends if he wants to tell me something. After all there's no secret that I hide from my friends.

"Daenah, five minutes please?"

"Not happening"

Hinarangan ako ni Raffy sa daan. Kahit anong isip ko na masasanay din ako sa bawat harang nito sa daan ko ay hindi ko magawa. Sa halos araw-araw nitong pagpapakita sa akin at pagharang laging nasisira ang araw ko.

"Talk Raffy"

"I want to talk alone with you"

I rolled my eyes. Ito na naman 'yong 'alone' n'ya.

"Talk now or you won't be able to after?"

"This is really important, Daenah. Sasabihin ko lang kung tayo lang dalawa at wala kang kasama" wika nito sabay sulyap sa aking likod

Napatingin din ako doon. I completely forgot na nakasunod pala si Owen sa akin. I ordered him to bring my things.

With his round glasses and his white shirt and black pants, hindi ko masasabi kong matalim ba o malamig ang mga titig nito kay Raffy. O magkahalong lamig at talim iyon?

Napansin ko din na brown na ang kulay ng mga mata nito. Ibang-iba no'ng nakita ko iyon ng malapitan. Maybe nagkamali lang ako noon?

Hindi ko na din binigyan iyon ng pansin dahil wala naman akong pake kay nerd. Ang swerte naman niya kung ganon.

"Talk Raffy. Wala akong oras sa'yo at lalong wala akong planong makikipag-usap sa'yo ng matagal"

Malalim na naglabas ito ng buntong hininga. Tumingin pa itong muli sa likod ko bago nagsalita.

"I heard my father one night..." he started "He's planning to do something evil"

"So anong kinalaman ko d'yan?"

Raffy took one step closer to me. I gave him a glare for that.

"He's planning to take your father down after what happened"

Napaikot ako ng mata. So anong kinalaman ko d'yan? Pabor iyon sa akin. I want Vicente's downfall too. Good thing hindi lang pala ako ang may gusto no'n.

"So, ano nga ang kinalaman ko d'yan. You're just wasting my time!"

"My father's thinking to use you or Therese. I'm here to warn you about it."

"Whatever"tanging sagot ko bago naglakad paalis

I know that Raffy's father is not a good man. Katulad din ni Vicente ang ama ni Raffy ngunit mas salbahis si Vicente. Wala itong awa ni katiting. Raffy's father may give you consideration but not Vicente.

Maybe last year's scandal of his son triggered the evil side of him. At ang warning ni Raffy ay parang hangin lang sa aking pandinig.

His father will soon figure out that I won't be a card to use for Vicente. I am just Vicente's daughter of another woman. He doesn't care.

"Do you want me to do something about it?"

Napalingon ako kay Owen. Muli kong nakalimutan na nandito pala s'ya.

"No. It will be a waste of my time"

Stupid warning! Raffy's father is not after me but he's after Therese. Why would I bother?
