CHAPTER 22 Titig na titig ako kay Jared, may ngiti sa labi ko at mapungay ang mga mata. Kitang kita ko ang samut-saring expressions na nagpapalit-palit sa gwapong mukha ng kasintahan ko. Confusion. Doubt if he heard me right. Amazement. Amusement. Doubt again, if he was the one I was referring to. Then, he claimed it. He believed I did refer to him. “Yes!” hiyaw niya na nag echo sa kapaligiran. Itinaas pa niya ang isang kamay. He curled it into a fist. At pagkatapos ay binuhat ako at nagpaikot-ikot kami. Hindi nagtagal at hinalikan nya na ako. He claimed my mouth, for a long hot kiss, to express his happiness at the moment. Hot and demanding. Like he always kisses me, but a little fiercer now. His happiness reached my soul. “Goodness Jared, did you plan on killing me?” I complained.
