Jay-Jay's pov
"Long time no see, old friend" kuya said to Raphael. Raphael saw us and looked shocked.
"A-Angelo? What are you doing here?" Rapheal asked kuya.
"Let me ask you that. What are tou both doing here?" Kuya asked back.
"Why do you want to know?"Rapheal asked.
"Why? Because you didn't tell me! You guys left without saying anything!"kuya said briefly looking at Ion.
"Why are you guys only checking on us now? Why didn't you guys come for us for this long?" Rapheal asked.
"Why you ask. Because i cared about you! You are getting engaged to him?"kuya asked Ion.
"Why do you care? Just go back to Philippines!"Ion said arrogantly. I swear she is getting on my nerve.
"We will. But only after the engagement is called off."kuya said with authority.
"No! You can't "Ion said.
"Yes i can. And i will!"kuya said.
"Why?"she asked. Kuya stopped. He didn't reply.
"I just wanted to go home. I wanted to see my parents.but i can't! Because they were killed by the hanamitchi clan! They threatened us, that they would kill us. They killed my parents and siblings. I didn't know what to do. Raphael knew everything. He offered to help me. Moving to london was the only thing we could do!"Ion said with tears rolling down her cheeks.
"You guys should have told me back then!"kuya said in disbelief.
"We couldn't. Because i didn't want to drag you in my mess!"Ion said. Then she started talking again."if i want to go home i need to be a Philippines civilian. For that i need to marry someone from Philippines. That's when keigan approached me. He said to marry him. And i thought it was a good idea. Because of that i could get home and keigan could get what he wanted. So you can't seperate us. We are in love"she said trying to cling to keifer. But he pushed her away."and we already met his parents and we kissed each other. Right keifer?"she said in a flirty tone. Clearly it was fake. Like she is forced to do so. I want to kill her. Gotta listen to my brain. So i tried to punch her.
"How dare you! You oldie"i said as i launched towards her. But couldn't reach because kuya and keifer held me back.
They dragged me outside while i kept cursing oldie. We hailed a taxi. Kuya sat in front and we sat in back.
"What's wrong with you jay? She is older than you!"kuya scolded.
"Yeah, i know that's why i called her oldie."i said simply.
"Jay that's not nice"keifer said.
"Shut up you fvcking playboy!"i said.
"JAY!"kuya yelled which i didn't care. They kissed. They KISSED? They're getting engaged? What about me? I'm left out. I love him too. I was thinking about confessing. I don't think i can anymore. He likes someone else. An oldie. What does she have that i don't have. Is it because i eat a lot?
I was lost in thoughts that i didn't notice that we've reached at the hotel. It was a huge hotel. We got our luggage and went to reception. The three of us got three seperate rooms. Which is good. So i can sleep peacefully. We went to our rooms. The room was very big and luxurious. I hope the food is too.
I went inside the room.and went to shower. It was so cold outside. So i decided to take a hot bath. While i was in the shower. My thoughts were about them.
Why does she have to marry him? There is plenty of Philippines men in London. Can't she pick one from them? Why did keigan approached her? What was his plan? I quickly took the shower. I was so lonely so i thought maybe i could call CI-N and tell him what happened today. As i was going to take my phone. I saw mini bar. So i took one beer from it and started drinking as i video called CI-N.
["Hii, jayy"]he said excited.
["Do you know who Ion is?"]i asked.
["Ion? Why? "]he asked.
["Do you know her or not?"] I asked again.
["Yeah, i know her. What about her?"]he replied.
["Well guess what? I met her today"]i said.
["Really!?"] He asked.
["You said you know her right? Then.. Is she nice?"]i asked him.
["Ion? She is the nicest person in the world, after rakki"] he said.
["You think so? Guess what. She is getting engaged with keifer!"]i said sipping the beer.
["Yea-wait what!? With who? Keifer?"]he asked.
["Heck yeah!"] I replied.
["Nahh, keifer wouldn't do that. He loves you. He must be forced to do this. I'm 100% sure that keifer wouldn't do this purpose!"] He said.
["They both kissed!"]i said.
["Come on jay, im sure that she was the one kissed him!do you think keifer would do that? No, he quit smoking because he wanted to kiss you!trust me jay you're being delusional."] He said.
["Ohh, you're siding with him!? Okay, im hanging up!"]i said as i hang up.
I thought CI-N would understand me. But he didn't. The beer in my hands were finished. What should i do? Who should i tell? How should i tell? Why doesn't anybody want me? Suddenly i heard the bell rang which startled me. I walked up to the door and looked through the peephole. There he was. Keifer. I didn't want to open the door. But a part of said to open the door. So i did.
"What!?" I yelled.
Suddenly he pushed open the door and came inside.
"What are you doing? Get out!kuya might see us!"i said but he just locked the door and began to come closer to me. I moved back. He moved forwad. I moved back again. But he just kept coming closer and closer that eventually, my leg hit the bed frame. But he didn't stop coming forward. His hand were in his pockets. I fell to the bed. And he was on the bed as well his hands which were in his pockets are now on my sides.
"Dare to profanity in front of me? Did you miss my lips so much" he said. When did i ever said profanity in front of hi-ohh.. When we were in the cab. I bit my lips so did he. There is no escape. I don't know what to do?what if doing this makes kuya upset? What if doing this makes everyone see me as a slut? Well,.. I don't give a fvck about everyone. What if maybe i want this? No, i need this. I slightly smiled at him. He smiled back. He came closer and closer. And our lips met. The kiss was so passionate. His lips were soft and smooth. It was a long kiss.
And we pulled away to catch our breath.
We were just about to continue. When we heard the bell.
I quickly pushed him away and went to the door. I peeped through the peephole. And i saw her.
Oldie-i mean 'Ion'
