Chapter Sixty

If there was one more thing she’s good at, it’s pretending to be asleep when she isn’t. For all her life since, she’s mastered the art of pretending to be asleep, making everyone actually fell for it. Like, say, right at the moment.

Asia spent the night with the rest of the operators in Europe’s… house. Well, it was a penthouse, actually. Europe promised to drive her off to the mansion first thing in the morning and there they are. Nasa passenger seat siya naka-upo, habang nasa likod si Rafa, nakahilata dahil sa hangover. She insisted on joining dahil ito raw ang nag-aya sa kanya and she felt responsible for her. Asia didn’t argue nor complain about it.

Hindi sila nag-uusap ni Europe, naka-focus lang ito sa pagmamaneho. Since medyo malayo ang penthouse nito sa mansion ng mga Acosta, she just pretended to be sleeping kesa ang mapanisan siya ng laway dahil para’ng hindi naman siya nag-e-exist sa binata.

She had no clue what ticked him off.
