Chapter 38 : Dauntless
"You have a fucking meeting with Keitthe okay?! Just the two of you in one room! Can you handle being with that jerk Sam? That asshole broke your heart! I can't let you see him." I was shocked. My throat dried and I scoffed.
"Yun lang? I lived with that guy for months okay?! So there's no need for you to worry about us being in one room! And I can handle myself I'm almost 22 I'm not a child. Plus, no need to remind me that, that jerk broke my heart 'cause I'm very fond of that fucking fact. My job is also out of our personal issues. I do my profession and that meeting is all business to me. For all I know you're not my mom so do not order me to do things 'cause I'll do what I want to do!" I catched my breath.
He massaged his temple.
"Fine. Just promise me that if something goes wrong you'll call me. Okay?" He cupped my cheeks and I can tell that the word 'worried' is written all over his face.
"It would be absurd if I don't. Just.. just trust me okay?" He sighed again.
"Ano pa nga ba ang magagawa ko?" I smiled. Oh Vince, how should I thank you?
"Where will we drop this barney though?" My heart twitched.
"Hey you ugly barney, go away from Sam! I'm her fiancé. Tch!!"
Why am I remembering this? And why is this still a big deal? It shouldn't bother me anymore. We're nothing but mere strangers with memories together.
"S-sa condo unit nalang natin muna. I don't know where he lives."
Gosh. I can't believe that I'm being like this. He might be something to Sam but he's nothing to you Alexcia.
Because I was tired from partying and work, I took a light bath then went to bed.
I decided to play some music to cope the quiet room. Thoughts were coming into my mind.
"Wag kang magtampo baby." It took me five seconds to move again.
"I told you, d-don't call me babe or baby. It sounds cheap." He smirked deviously.
"Okay then. I'll call you my Minnie."
Minnie...
"Sam stop." My body suddenly obeyed him even if my mind says not to. "Girls might kiss me but guess what? I won't give a shit about it because your lips are the only one I want to taste." I can't breathe and then my face is heating up.
"My lips only? But what if you felt a spark kissing someone else?"
"Damn! Even if I feel a spark I don't care. 'Cause a spark is nothing compared to the explosions I feel when we kiss."
Explosions? Mas may explosion pa ata sila ni Samuel sa higaan that day.
1 4 3 can mean something more than i like you though..
Then why did he hurt me? Why do I have to feel that way?! Why does he have to crush my heart into pieces? Why did we even started that game? If he loves me then why? Naiinis ako kasi may tumutulong luha galing sa mata ko. Why?? After four years of building walls why am I crying over these bullshit memories?
I grabbed my phone and looked at Jinri's text for more information. I haven't had a chance to see it kanina.
