Chapter 40

"Kahit ano, kung saan mo gusto." Sabi ko sa kanya dahil maski sya ay naguguluhan kung saan kami kakain.

"Since I don't experience some beauty memories, can we go to Jollibee?" Tanong nya na ikinagulat ko. It means this is the first time he will eat to Jollibee Fastfood?

I bit my lower lip to stop myself from talking that I want to ask what happened in a year ago. And why did he not experience some things. Hila hila na nya ako papasok ng Jollibee habang malalim ang iniisip ko.

Like when he confessed everything to me what he experienced about childhood memories.

"Chloe" He called when I am just staring at him with a smile on his face. "What do you want to eat?"

"Same as yours." Sagot ko at kinuha ang shoulder bag ko para magbigay ng-

"Don't do that, it's my treat. This is the first date so let me pay it." Hindi ako nagsalita at tumango na lang.

Tumingin ako sa paligid upang pa simple maghanap ng mauupan namin. Dahil mas makahirap makahanap ng upuan dito dahil sa dami ng tao na kumakain. My eyes locked in two seats and one table.

"Lucas," Tawag ko sa kanya habang nakapila kami. "I need to go and look some available tables."

"No problem, wait for me there." Hinalikan nya pa sa noo ko bago ako maka alis. I feel my face is burning because of he did.

Nang makaupo ako ay saktong nag vibrate ang phone ko kaya kinuha ko ito mula sa shoulder bag ko at binuksan ang mensahe galing kay Hans.

From: Hans

'You really didn't trust me, do you?'

My brows furrowed when I saw his text message. Ano na naman kaya ang panibagong dahilan kung bakit nya sya sinisiraan sa akin.

To: Hans

Stop talking about nonsense, I already told you the truth and it's up to you kung maniniwala ka o hindi. Don't blame to me that sh*t mind of yours.

Padabog kong ipinatong ang cellphone ko ay lamesa at napahilamos ng mukha. I really can't understand since that day we met he usually throw out of sh*ts about Lucas. But Lucas didn't do anything wrong to him. Like what f*ck right?

I heard my phone continue vibrating and I even saw his name. I immediately answer his call with my hands shake of anger to him.

"What do you want? Can't you stop minding those sh*ts. It's none of your business anymore!" Pabulong na sabi ko sa kanya. I really don't want to make my mood change because of him.

[Stop being blind, Chloe. You will known soon if he's our ally or not. And come on, hindi pa lahat ay nalalaman mo kaya pwede ba at bumalik kana sa Hide Out. Or do you want me to call our Boss and report it to him?] Kalmadong tanong nya na nagpa inis sa akin.

Calm down, Chloe. You're not in your house just to throw out of things because of the frustration feels.

"U-huh how could you say if you can't find another way just to check his background on your own?"

[Of course, you're the perfect and expert among us. So how can I find my way if you hide his background and betrayed our group. Just to protect the Lucas Alseiti who are the Gutierrez fam a bait.]

I heard his evil laugh before he ended the call. Tama ba ang narinig ko mula sa kanya o patuloy nya pa rin itong sisiraan sa akin. I stopped my tears from falling when I felt his presence.

"Are you okay?" Tanong nya ka agad pagka upo nya sa harap ko.

"I'm fine." Nginitian ko sya para makasiguradong hindi sya mag aalala dahil sa itsura ko. I want to feel peace and freedom for now.

Tinignan ko ang inorder nya sa dami so we extended the next table para maging dalawa. Two piece of spicy fried chicken with rice, two piece of palabok, two piece of sunday and one large fries and some ketchup sauce ang gravy. Six piece of chicken nuggets and two piece of coke float.

"Ano to, mukbang?" Natawa sya sa sinabi ko at pinunasan ng tissue ang spoon and fork bago ibigay sa akin.

"I want to taste it all, it's my first time to eat fastfood after a year." He said to me when he fixed all the food to our table and put out the tray.

"Okay, let's eat."

****

Matapos namin kumain ay tuwang tuwa sya at nabusog dahil sa dami ng kinain. Umorder pa sya ng yumburger habang ako ay hindi ko naubos lahat at sya sumalo ng ibang hindi ko naubos na pagkain. Hindi rin ako nakapaniwala sa bituka nito at mukhang mabilis mag digest.

"Pwede kana gumawa ng vlog, food mukbang." Biro ko sa kanya habang sinasaid ang coke float.

"Nah, I would rather be with you all the time while eating fastfood. No videos." Sabi nya habang tinutunaw ang yelo sa loob noon at sinisipsip ang stro.

Napatingin ako sa kanya, nabo-bothered sa ingay nang ginagawa nya dahil sa pagsasaid. Kinuha ko naman ang nakalahating coke float ko at inilagay sa harap nya.

"Iyo na, busog na ako." Tuwang tuwa naman syang tinanggap iyon at inilagay sa tabi ang naubos bago ininom ng deretso sa akin.

He's acting weird in front of me. I didn't know what to say because he react like he was a child and spoiled. Wanting from more drinks with a shiny sparkle eyes. Ni hindi ko makita ang seryosong Lucas ngayon dahil habang iniinom nya ang akin ay patingin tingin sya sa paligid at kapag tinitignan ako ay ngingiti.

Maybe someday, you wil open up to me what happened to your past.
