He Is A Playboy

When they entered the room, Emman stood up and went to welcome them. "Yo, bro, we have missed you so much" he said while patting Chad's back. "Come and have your seat" they all went to sit.

Just then, a waiter came in and gave them the menu to order.

Rachel, how is your leg?" Emman asked with a smile on his face.

"Getting better" Rachel smiled back at him as she opened the menu. "I will have paras toast, pato at adlai, lamang dapat" Rachel said and gave the menu to Joanna.

Johanna opened the menu and looked at it. "Coconut quash, rice cakes, roasted pineapples. That's all" she smiled and gave the menu to Emman who was sitting across from her.

"I will have what she is having" Emman smiled and gave the menu to the next person beside him.

The waiter nodded. After few seconds of ordering their food, the waiter bowed and left the room. James looked at Emman and gave him a puzzled look. "Who were you talking about?"

"Johanna" he answered.

Johanna who was chatting happily with Rachel heard this and stiffened. She turned her head to look at Emman and he winked at her. Johanna felt her face turning red slowly. She quickly lowered her eyes to avoid his gaze.

There was an awkward silence in the room. A long period of time in which no one speaks because of what Emman did and said. Luckily, the waiter came in with their foods and placed it on the table and then he bowed and excused himself. They indulged themselves in the appetizing food. The aroma was driving Joanna crazy and one bite she was in heaven.

They all enjoyed their dinner very much. Johanna and Rachel chatted like they used to do everytime they are with each Other. Johanna lifted her glass and tasted the wine.

Unknowingly to her, Emman attention was on her. As he gaze adoringly at her. Her face was wide and round with a pointed chin. Her eyes are big and very dark brown. She was a pretty girl and she was able to attract much attention.

Emman swallowed hard, realizing for the first time he was attracted by a girl's beauty.

Johanna eventually felt his stare and looked up. When she saw how he looked at her, her heart fluttered. She turned her head to avoid his penetrating gaze. She felt so uncomfortable with the way he was looking at her.

Everybody knew Emman as a playboy. Infact he was even given that name and he loved it.

They all had a nice conversation in the end. Everyone noticed the way Emman was looking at Joanna and sense something was wrong. Although, Emman tried to get Johanna number, but she refused.

In the car, Rachel turned her head to look at Johanna and brushed her arm gently. "Johanna, what do you think about Emman? Don't you think he is very handsome?"

Johanna frowned and answered almost immediately. "No!"

Rachel was a little bit surprised. "No? Emman is very handsome. They are so many girls who wants to be by his side and you..."

"What are you trying to say?" Johanna interrupted her.

"Didn't you see the way he was looking at you? In his eyes, you are the most beautiful girl in the world. Emman is so cute. He has a pair of medium wide eyes, with dense thin and flat eyebrows. He has a thin pink lips. What do you think?"

Johanna eyebrows furrowed as she turned her head to look at Rachel."I feel so uncomfortable when I was with him"

Rachel laughed lightly at Johanna words. "Is it because he is a playboy?"

Johanna did not respond and continued to stare out of the window. Rachel wrapped her around Johanna's arm and pouted her lips. "I don't want you to be lonely. At least have someone by your side"

Johanna frowned even the more. "I am not lonely. I have you and aunt by my side and of course Chad is here too. I don't want any other friends"

Upon seeing her friend's stubbornness, she pouted her lips and tugged Johanna's arm. "You need a man..."

"Rachel!" Johanna interrupted. She was feeling a bit annoyed. "I don't want a man by my side for now. I am happy with the way I am"

Rachel frowned and rested her head on Chad's chest. Chad lowered his eyes and patted her head like a kitten.

When they got home, Johanna was already tired. She went to the bathroom to take a cold shower. After showering, she went back to her room and lay on the bed thinking about the dinner they had at the restaurant. The way Emman looked at her flashed across her mind.

She felt her face was becoming hot immediately. She rolled to her side and closed her eyes, trying to close her mind to the way Emman looked at her, but it flashed through her mind again. She rolled on her other side again.

After so much tossing and turning, she sat up in bed and ran her hand through her hair.

Wait! Why is she thinking of him?

She is not his type and he is just a playboy. He shouldn't be the one in her mind. She rasied her head to look at the time. It was eleven- thirty seven pm.

She lay back on her bed, squeezed her eyes shut so she won't think of Emman. and finally, she drifted off to sleep.

At the Torres mansion.

Chad slowly opened the door to Rachel's room and tiptoe towards her bed. He lean over her. She was sleeping like a baby. Her lips were slightly parted and her hair covered half of her face. He smiled and curled his fingers to move her hair from her face.

Rachel felt his hand on her face and frowned, then she began to open her eyes slowly. She let out a piercing shriek when she saw the man in front of her and tried to jump out of bed, but Chad pinned her down and covered her mouth with his hand.

"Shhhh... It's me"

Rachel stopped struggling when she heard Chad's voice, but her glistening eyes were filled with child like fear and excitement rested on her face.

"What are you doing here?" she lowered her voice into a whisper and asked.

"Follow me" Chad helped her get out of her bed and led her out of the room quietly.

Rachel was confused when he took her to his room. She turned around to face him and asked, "Why did you bring me here?" she asked in a worried voice and crossed her arms against her chest.

Chad pointed at the balcony. "There"

Rachel was confused. "Huh?" she turned to look at the balcony and started towards the balcony door slowly. When she got to the balcony, her big eyes widened in surprise and her jaw dropped.
