2 becomes 4

"Come on, what's the use of your lake if you don't allow anyone to use it.?" Elaine tried to act like a normal girl that this man meet before. Kailangan din niyang maging normal kahit papano para hindi naman siya masyadong halata.

"You wanted to take a bath together at night!" Dane emphasizes the word at night. Elaine didn't answer and just kicked the horse from behind to make it run. Pero bago siya tumakbo, nag iwan muna siya ng salita.

"Wala ng masama maligo sa gabi, we even swamped together back to Boracay at night." She said then she ran away.

Naiinis siya sa ginagawa ng lalake, he's over protecting her kahit adult na siya. Hindi naman porket pinili niya na maging kapatid ito ay pwede na siyang itrato ng lalake na stupida. Higit sa lahat, kung patuloy aaktong possessive ang lalake sa kanya, baka lalong lumalim ang nararamdaman niya dito hanggang sa hindi na niya kayang pigilan pa.

"You two took a bath together on the ocean yet you didn't want her to take a bath with me?" Tristan teased the man who are now releasing a dark aura beside him.

"You're protecting her too much, she's already an adult." Audrey speaks too but Dane didn't answer. He just guided the two to follow the ran away lady.

Nagkatinginan ang dalawang mag kapatid na naiwan bago sumunod sa lalake.

Kasalukuyang na sa loob ng kwarto niya si Elaine at nag mumukmok ng katukin siya ng kanyang kuya. Nakasimangot na binuksan niya ang pintuan ng kanyang kwarto at pinapasok ang binatang seryoso din ang mukha.

"If you're here to nag me, please just stop. I'm already trying to understand your words back there so there's no need to nag me." Salubong niya sa lalake.

Nagpakawala ng buntong hininga si Dane bago nagsalita.

"Gusto mo talaga maligo sa lake?" Tanong nito kay Elaine.

"Nag bago na isip ko." Naka irap na sagot ng dalaga.

Muling nagpakawala ng malalim na hininga ang binata bago hinila ang braso ng dalaga at ikinulong sa kanyang braso.

"Alright, I'll allow you to take him on the lake but in one condition, I should also come with you."

Napatingala si Elaine sa lalake na kasalukuyang ding nakatingin na rin sa kanya. Huh! Gusto niyang mapag solo ang iniidolo pero heto't may kontrabida!

"I'm not surprised if you also take Audrey with you." She said while withdrawing herself. "Then, let's go night swimming on the lake together. Asked your maid to prepare some foods and drinks. Masarap din mag-ihaw ihaw doon banda sa lake.

"Alright, kung yan ang gusto mo." Nag paalam na ito sa kanya at saka lumabas ng kwarto. Narinig niya pa ang boses ni Audrey na nag tanong kung okay naba silang dalawa.

Napa palatak si Elaine, kailangan na niyang bumalik sa school, para kahit papano ay makaiwas na siya sa lalake. Her heart will soon betray her kapag nag patuloy pa ito.

At night,

Masayang nag iihaw na nga barbecue ang dalawang babae sa tabi ng lake, habang ang dalawang lalake naman ay busy uminom ng beer in can. Gustong batuhin ni Elaine ng karne ang kanyang kapatid dahil ginawa pa siyang taga luto ng pulutan nito.

"Ikaw ang nag sabi na mag ihaw sa tabi ng lake. Kaya wag mo ako tingnan ng ganyan." Anito. Elaine just sigh while Audrey giggled.

"Your brother loves teasing you." Wika ni Audrey habang tumutuhog ng hotdog na inaabot sa dalawang lalake.

"He loves teasing me, and I hate it." She answered.

"Because that's makes me fall for him". Dugtong niya sa sariling isip.

" you two are sweet, I just hope that you won't forget that he's your brother." Sabi sa kanya ng babae na seryosong nakatitig sa kanya.

Natigilan si Elaine, ano to? Warning from wolf who pretends as sheep? Napa-halakhak siya dala ng inis at disappointment.

"Audrey, I didn't chose to be his sister because of his money, I chose him because he insisted it for repaying my kindness. If not because of me, you don't have a boyfriend now who are supporting you." She whispered.

Natigilan naman ang babae at napatitig sa kanya. Isang matamis na ngiti ang binigay niya dito.

"What are you guys talking about?" Dane approached them.

Elaine didn't answer and let the girl made an excuse. She just concentrated fanning the barbecue.

"N-Nothing, we're just talking about the fashion show." Audrey answered. Napa giggle si Elaine. What a joke!

"Yeah? Did you force her to come? She told me that she will not coming with me." Kumuha ng barbecue si Dane.

"Why not?" Si Tristan naman ang nagsalita.

"I'm planning to study the previous lessons of my new school." Mabilis niyang sagot sa lalake.

"Oh! How sad, I was planning to tour you around." Kumuha na rin si Tristan ng barbecue.

"Next time. If you personally invited me." Malambing niyang turan sa lalake na natigilan at napatitig sa kanya.

"Don't act like that to my brother Elaine. He might fall for you." Audrey said while smiling pero alam na ni Elaine ang ibig sabihin nun. It means " stop flirting with my brother, he might take the advantage ".

"Its fine, I'm adult and he's single. We can be lovers if he wanted it too." Dala ng inis ay naisagot niya. Isang kalampag ng pang ipit ang nalaglag sa batuhan.

At ng tingnan ni Elaine kung g Sino ang naka-laglag, para siyang binuhusan ng malamig na tubig ng makita ang galit na itsura ng kapatid.
