Semua Bab Finest Keeper: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Just what the hell is happening?! My mouth was still parted a bit. Why the fuck is he here? Bakit mas lalong gumwapo siya ngayon? Shit! He looks hot as hell with his three piece suit, his hair is neatly brushed up and his sexy mustache. Gosh! I will always be swoon over with his presence. Tingin niya pa lang, bumababa na ang anghel sa lupa. Ilang taon man ang nakalipas, hindi pa rin nabawasan ang kagwapuhan niya. Ang pogi niya! Tangina lang!These thoughts made me cringe. I shook my head. This is not the time to admire his damn beauty."He's one of the engineers who'll approve your design Ms. Portillo," said my chief. Kinuyom ko ang kamao ko. Ang mukha naman niya'y seryoso. I didn't imagine our meeting to be like this. His hawk eyes left me breathless. Bakit ganyan siya makatingin?My eyes wandered around and everyone were expecting me to start. Shit! Hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko. Fuck you Brent! You're really good at ruining me!I closed eyes and heaved a deep sigh before starting.S

I stared blankly at the wall for how many minutes now. Hindi ko alam kung ano pa rin ang mararamdaman ko ngayon.My heart swelled inside of my chest. I kept on holding back my tears but I don't think I can do it now.Tears pooled my eyes. My heart was still heavy. The agony building up inside of me has slowly consumed me.Okay naman ako ng mga nagdaang taon e, kinaya ko naman ng wala siya. Bakit na naman ako nagkaka-ganito dahil sa kanya? Nakaka-tangina lang! I glanced at the time in my phone. It's already three in the morning. Mas lalo kong kinagulat ang ilang missed calls galing kay kuya.They're definitely worried about my whereabouts. Siraulo kasi 'to si Brent!"Kuya." bungad ko nang masagot ko ang tawag."Yna? Nasaan ka na? Saan ka dinala ng gagong 'yan ha?" sunod sunod na tanong ni kuya."Nasa Tagaytay kami. But, kuya don't worry I can manage.""Siguraduhin mo lang, Yna, baka 'pag bumalik ka na naman dito sa Manila para ka namang asong ulol diyan sa gagong 'yan."I heaved a deep

"Shit! I'm excited naaaa!" Ricardo raised his hands in the air as we stepped out in the airplane and landed in El Nido, Palawan. Here we go! We were all dressed with our summer outfits."Let's gooo!" Kanina pa hinahawakan ni Ayesha ang mahaba niyang summer dress na tinatangay ng hangin.Good thing, I wore only a cropped top and a high waist maong shorts.Hindi na sumama si Asher dahil may aasikasuhin daw siya.Ricardo brought his gwapo boyfriend with him. When I say, gwapo he really looked like a European model with his features. Shit! Where did Ricardo get that guy?"Hoy, mata mo! Kanina mo pa pinagdidiskitahan ang boyfriend ko!" hasik ni Ricardo. Inirapan ko lang siya."Aba, babe o." pabebe niyang pagsumbong sa boyfriend niya na hindi ko alam ang pangalan."I'm Gregory by the way." He extended his hand for a shake. Ricardo looked at me with his disapproving look. As if naman, I'll snatch his boyfriend from him. I smiled and accepted his shake."Yna," tipid kong sabi bago pinuntahan

It's been a week since the last encounter with kuya. Brent has been very sweet to me since then. Kalat na rin sa buong department na kami na.Hindi ko nga maisip na mangyayari pala talaga 'to na parte lang ng pangarap ko.We were holding hands as we were heading to our house. May binili raw siyang regalo kay kuya. Kanina ko pa nga siya tinatanong kung ano pero ayaw niya talaga.I could see Brent's effort to really please kuya. May pinagsamahan naman sila, sana iyon ang makita ni kuya, hindi lang 'yung galit niya.He stopped the engine. Naningkit naman ang mata nito nang tumingin sa akin. "I know what you're thinking, Yna but I won't tell it. Just wait and see." He even winked. What the hell? Ilang beses pa akong kumurap. Nang bumaba siya, sumunod na rin ako.Hindi na kinagulat ni ate Bea nang makita kami. Nasanay na rin siya na lagi kaming magkasama na pumupunta rito. Sa totoo lang, hindi lang naman kay Brent galit si kuya. Sa akin din. Hanggang maaari, ayokong saktan si kuya. He's th

Pagod akong humiga sa kama ko at niyakap ng mahigpit ang unan ko nang makarating ako sa apartment ko. I couldn't just get rid of Brent's face in my mind.How would I be able to say this to him? The last encounter we had was when I was drunk. He told me he didn't want to see me anymore.Paulit-ulit kasing rumerehistro sa utak ko ang usapan namin nila Hera. And it's killing me too much.Love is really destructive. It's either you destroy or you'd get destroyed.I needed to tell him this.The next morning came and I went to his place. I gathered my strength together as I was standing in front of his apartment. I heaved a great sigh before I pressed the button. Nangangatal pa rin ang aking kamay dahil sa kaba. Kagat ko pa rin ang labi ko. Nanghihina ang aking mga buto. Nanginginig ang tuhod ko.Pinindot ko muli at naghintay. Pero, wala siya. I wonder where he is now. I called his phone number but there was no response.I called Kuya Dexter's number, baka sakaling alam niya. Ilang beses ak
