Akin Ka Lang

Chapter 17

Napatingin ako sa kanya at kita kong she meant what she said.

"She shouldn't had act that way mas gugustohin ko pang pinalagpas na lang nya ito para di na ito lumala pa pero ayon pinalala nya by punching the man herself! Her action made people misunderstand her, I admit, even me."

Natawa ako sa paliwanag nya. "Then that won't be Sven anymore I know. The Sven I know don't care if she was misunderstood by people as long as she thought she did right for others."

"Then it isn't for me. Ayaw kong pinagtitinginan sya ng mga tao na para syang kung anong kadisgusting tao sya dahilan lang sa misunderstanding! And I felt horrible misunderstanding her yet greatful that she'd do that for me."

"Hmm..." wala akong masabi dahil I saw shame on her eyes and worry written on her face but there's something more.

"Pero tulad ng sinabi ko kanina nawawala ka sa katinuan pag si Sven na ang pinag-uusapan o agribyado."

"Well... you can't blame me she is my beloved sister. Di lang halata but Sven like a kid who is starting to explore how big the world is kaya oa na kung oa ako kaprotective sa kanya." Sabi ko at seryusong tumingin kay Kristine.

"That's why I'm asking you... ano ang namamagitan sa inyo ni Sven? Like I said earlier she is exploring the world for the first time and that also means bago si Ven sa relasyon tungkol sa pag-ibig. Malala pa nga eh, she don't understand what family love is... but knows what family is."

I hope naiintindihan ako ni Kristine kung bakit ko ito sinasabi. "I'm not saying she is heartless because sya na ata ang kilala kong tao who is selfless and generous kaya ako nag-aalala. Ayaw kong saktan o masaktan ang kapatid ko Kristine."

Nagsusumamo kong sabi sa kanya dahil minsan ko ng makitang kwestyonin ni Sven ang sarili why she was alone and not with her family. And why she was gaven to lolo and had to work hard para lang mapansin ng sariling magulang, that's why I always worry about her at ayaw ko ng makita pa how devastated she is one time she had a fever.

"Like I said- (sighed) may date kami ni Sven- patapusin mo muna ako before you react girl!"

Pinandilatan nya ako dahil sa teaction ko but hell sino di mabibigla? Siya na mismo nagkumperma no!

"Ayon nga may date dapat kami ni Sven ngayon A FRIENDLY DATE pero nasira dahil sa bastardong waiter na iyon."

"Wait... what? Come again?"

Anong sinabi ng babaeng ito? Friendly date? Is it just me or I am hearing it wrong?

"Friendly date?! B-but... but Sven said may na girlfriend sya sa akin when she asked for advise how to apologise to a woman from me that is why I said-"

Napatingin ako kay Kristine sa tawa.

"That's why advice her to invite her girlfriend on a date and buy roses to give it to her? Pffft...."

Napaismid ako sa sanabi nya.

"My god Cassie kaya nga sinabi ko sayo napaka-irrational mo pagdating kay Sven. Kaya pala sabi nya sa akin kanina na naweweidohan sya sayo at tingin nya di kayo nagkaintindihan ng makarating kami sa resto na pinuntahan namin." Naiilinf nyang sabi.

"But she said she has a-"

"Girl friend na may space between girl and friend. Pffft... haha... what Sven said true. She has a friend which is a girl."

Naiirita na ako sa kanyang katatawa! 😠 Ipamukha ba naman sa akin na para akong tanga?! Sabunutan ko kaya sya?

"She only sees me as a friend Cassie... but since we're talking about her and this relationship thingy..." she paused at tumingin sa akin ng seryuso. "I don't want to be her friend. I want to be her girlfriend, walang space yan, ha..."

Napakunot noo ako sa sonabi nya.

ISABELLE's POV

          I intently look at Cassandra's eyes to make know I am serious at what I am about to say to her.

"I am in love to Sven, your sister, and I am serious when I said that I want to be her girlfriend."

What happened today made me feel ashame of myself but also affirm and make my feelings for Cassandra's sister ignited ablaze.

Nahihiya man dahil nagjump on conlusion ako agad kay Sven kay na turn off ako sa kanya at unti-unting nawawala ang pagkagusto kong nararamdaman sa kanya, pero parang apoy na di mapatay patay ng biglang sumiklab ito ng mabilis at walang inuurongan when I umderstand that Sven is protecting my honor and dignity kahit na lumabas pa syang masama sa paningin ko at sa ibang tao.

I feel so touch and important sa ginawa nya.

"I think naguguluhan ka lang Kris dahil-"

"Do I look like naguguluhan Cassie? And you know I don't joke around when in comes in relationship lalo na't Sven is a girl..."

"Like you said Kris babae si Sven kaya tingin ko nagiguluhan ka lang lalo na't mas straight ka pa sa ruler! Kilala kita Kristine."

"Kilala mo nga ako Casssandra at alam mo kung gaano ako kaseryuso pagdating sa love. Hindi ko patatagalin ang panliligaw ni Michael if I only want to be his girlfriend and would give in temptation noon pa kung di ako seryuso." I am slightly irritated at her dahil sa sinabi nya.

"You are my friend first before naging kami ng kapatid mo and you should know I am conservative pagdating sa romantic love even though I am a bitch to others eyes."

We looked at each others eyes to the point na di na namin namalayang huminto na pala kami.

"Ma'am Cassandra andito na po tayo." Biglang sabi ng driver whom we forgot na kasama pala namin sya dito sa kotse.

"Haist... that's why I am worried Kristine. Conservative ka pagdating sa pag-ibig but right now di ko ito makita pero pag-usapan natin ito next time. Atupagin natin muna ang gulong kinasangkutan ng bata kong kapatid." Naiiling na sabi ni Cassaie sa akin at lumabas na sya sa kotse.

I went after her pero di ko mapigilang isipin ang sinabi nya which is true dahil me being consevative when it comes to love is readily want to jump into relationship at any moment now kay Sven if magkataong pweding maging kami nga.

But I know that deep within me seryuso ako sa nararamdaman ko para sa nararamdaman ko kay Sven.
