Lie To Me

Chapter 52: 51



Chapter 52: 51

I rode the elevator down the basement and when it opened, my heart automatically beat so widely that

I think it will jump out of my ribcage. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

He's there, Elijah, leaning against his car as it patiently waits for me. He was looking at his shoes,

unaware of me coming closer to him.

"Eli," I called him.

His head automatically shot up and looks at me. He's eyes were full of unfathomable emotions.

"Hi," I said again.

Elijah stood and smiled at me. "Hi," he said.

"Are you going home?" I asked.

He shook his head. "I'm waiting for you," he answered.

I nodded.

"Paano pala kung hindi ako uuwi ngayon. Mag iintay ka rito mag damag?" I asked.

He smiled and took a stepped forward closer to me. "You know I'm always willing to wait for you," he

said.

I bit me lips, suppressing a smile to come out.

Hanzel is right. I shouldn't have prolonged this. I know why I was so annoyed at him the past few days

and it is because I'm jealous. I'm jealous of how Ms. Vera can touch him publicly and I can't.

It was my fault too, I made our situation complicated.

"Are you done avoiding me?" He asked.

"I won't be here if I still am," I said and he sighed.

"I miss you," he said, looking straight to my eyes.

I arched my brow. "Hmm? Parang hindi naman," I said. "You were so busy with Ms. Vera."

"She's an investor," he said.

I nodded. "But according to Hanz, it wasn't necessary that she's here everyday," I said.

He smirked. "Is that you way of saying your jealous of her?" He asked.

I rolled my eyes. "Dream on," I said and walked passed him but before I could even take two steps, he

stopped me by holding me on my elbow.

"You know you don't have to be jealous to anyone, right?" He said and I nodded.

"I know," I said. "But still, I can't help but to feel that because I also know that there are lot of girls that

are better than me that you could like. I know how inconstant feelings are. It always change," I said.

Elijah stared at me intensely. His hand glided down from my elbow to my hand, holding it. "Jia..." He

called.

"Hmm?"

He licked his lips and bit it. "Gusto mo na rin ba ako?" He asked hopefully.

But didn't answer. Instead, I stepped closer to him and tiptoed until my lips reached his cheeks and

whispered. "Gusto kita," I confessed.

His hands automatically wrapped around my waist, hugging me.

"God," he said, pulling me closer and tightened his hug. "You don't know how much you're making me

happy," he added.

"Hmm?" I murmured, looking up to him. My hands are also wrapped around his waist.

Elijah bit and licked his lips again. "I'm so happy," he said.

I nodded. " I can see that," I said, poking his dimples because he's showing it off too much.

He laughed.

His chest vibrated because of that. "I love you," he whispered, kissing the top of my head.
