Chapter 46: Chapter 46
Will
She looked away and walked to the couch. I sighed and sat beside her
I just wish this kissing scene is short but hell no, it's like five minutes.
“you're one good kisser. How many girls have you kissed all in the name of movie making?” she asked, staring at me.
“I... I... The scenes aren't real. They're some form of behind the scenes trick. You know what I mean” I lied. Of course they're 100% real. But how would I tell the girl I'm dying to have her love me back that I've kissed more than ten different ladies all because of the camera
“really?” she asked with relief
“yeah, really” I said with a smile
“that's a relief” she breathed out and smiled.
The kissing scene was over and I decided to bring up a conversation
“uhm, aren't you bored? You know, staying here alone.”
“yeah... Somehow” she replied and threw a candy bar to me. I caught it “thank you”
“yeah, whatever” she said in a cute way that made me smile
“I'm going to an island in Cebu. Bantayan island. It's for a week and I want you to come with me”
“what? Why?”
“cause I'd be lonely after the shoots and the house is quite big and lonely for me”
“no I can't come with you. Maybe next time. Don't be angry with me” she said and grinned
“okay. I can understand” I said
“do me a favor” she said with a pout
“uhm, can you please... Well, can you just take me...” she paused looking nervous
“you wanna go somewhere? Where? Come on, let's go” I said, stood up and pulled her up
“I just wanted to go on a ride. Like the one Sam took Benedicta on” she said, pointing at the TV
I chuckled
“it looked fun. I want it” she said and I licked my lips and stared at her with a smile, not saying a word
“Wilbur! Ugh! You know what, forget it” she said with a distressed voice and sat down
I chuckled and took her hand but she jerked it back
I bent down and placed my hands on her thighs. She glared down at me
“you wanna ride with me?” I asked
“I said forget it” she said
“go wear a jacket. I'll be waiting for you in the car” I said and stood up. I walked to the door, opened it and looked back at her
“I'll wait for five minutes. If you're not interested, don't come and at exactly six minutes, I'll go back home” I stated and walked through the door then closed it.
I went to my car and thank God I brought this particular one. I uncovered the roof of the car and sat in, leaving the door opened and one of my legs outside on the ground
I waited for five minutes and she didn't come. I felt bad all of a sudden. If only I had quickly accepted we'd definitely be taking a ride now.
I wanted to go back inside and apologized to her but I didn't want to, the stubborn part of me didn't want to.
I took my leg in, closed my door and started the car
I then heard Mari scream as something crashed loudly. I quickly got out of the car and ran to the door, I opened it and saw Mari wearing a black jacket, standing in front of a television that was lying face down on the floor with flashes of electricity bolting around it
Mari
I crossed my arms and determined not to go outside. Three minutes had gone and I was still proving stubborn. I glared at the television as if it was Will though it was another scene that was showing.
When I couldn't take it anymore, I groaned and ran to my room. I quickly pulled out one of my new jackets and hurriedly wore it. I went to turn of the TV when I saw Wilbur who's actually playing the character of Sam, pinning Benedicta to the wall and kissing her like she held the potion of immortality in her lips.
I began to fume up with a tense feeling. I screamed and pulled down the television and screamed again when it fell down on the floor.
I stood staring at it in shock when Wilbur came rushing in
“OH my God! What happened?” he asked and I couldn't answer
“Mari, step away from it or you might get electrocuted” he said and pulled me away
“I'm sorry I was just going to turn it off when it...”
“it's okay. Thank God you're fine. Don't worry I'll call and have it replaced” he said and pulled out his phone
“no, you don't have to. The school would...” I stopped because he walked away and started talking to the person he was calling. I sighed and sat on the sofa.
What made me pull it down? Why was I even angry? Wasn't that jealousy?
God!
“I need to talk to Eliza” I mumbled under my breath
