LOVE At First Sight

Quinze

"I'll be going to Paris next week."

Alexander told her that made her froze. "P-Paris?"

"Yes."

"Alexander naman! Sabi mo hindi mo ako iiwan! Bakit ka pupunta sa Paris? Kung aalis ka isama mo ako—"

And what Alexander did, he pressed his lips against hers to shut her mouth. And it worked.

"Hear me out first Love."

"O-okay."

"I'll be going to Paris next week with my Sister, Alexandra. I've decided to see my Father and attend his birthday as well. For now you can't come with me. But I'll make sure, after this, you'll come with me wherever I'll go."

"H-hanggang kailan ka doon?"

"Maybe a month or two."

At agad nalungkot si Tiffany at napayuko dahil mahihiwalay sya kay Alexander. Isang buwan? Dalawang buwan? Eh yung limang araw nga lang na nahiwalay sya dito nalungkot na sya, hindi nya kinaya. Isa hanggang dalawang buwan pa kaya?

"But hey, look at me Love."

And Tiffany obliged. She looked up to him and saw Alexander smiling sweetly at him. "I promise you that I'll come back to you. Hintayin mo ako okay? I need to fix something in Paris. And I need to talk to my Father for something important. It's time for me to prove myself to you Love. So wait for me okay? Promise me that you'll wait for me."

Then Tiffany looked at him lovingly. "Of course I'll wait for you Alexander. Promise! Mahal kita eh."

Alexander smiled while tucking some strands of her hair behind her ear. Then he softly caressed her face and brushed his thumb on her lips. "Tu me fais heureux. Je t'adore, mon amour. Mon ange... mon coeur."

Tiffany's breathing hitched upon hearing those words from Alexander. Ang sarap sa pakiramdam na sabihan ka ng ganito ng taong mahal mo.

Pero ang nakapagtataka. Bakit fluent si Alexander ng French? Could it be...

"Alexander?"

"Hmm?"

"Bakit ang fluent mo sa French? Is your Dad French?"

Alexander smiled mysteriously. "He's living in Paris. Maybe that's why."

"But... 8 years ka na dito ah? Or more than? Bakit fluent ka pa rin— ah... tsaka na ako magtatanong. Feeling ko hindi mo sasabihin sa akin eh."

He chuckled. "Yup. When I come back I'll tell you promise. Pero isa sa dahilan, si Boss kasi fluent. French yon. Ako french fries lang."

At mahinang pinalo ni Tiffany si Alexander sa balikat. "Siraulo. Edi ako Spanish sardines?"

Then Alexander looked at her flatly. "Joke ba 'yon Love?"

Nalukot ang mukha ni Tiffany at akmang tatayo nang pigilan sya ni Alexander. "Joke lang Love. Ito naman oh! Nagtatampo agad."

"Gago!" Singhal ni Tiffany na ikinatawa nya. "Magpapalit ako ng panty liners. O gusto mo dito ako magpalit sa harap mo?"

Alexander frowned. "We can't make love today?"

"2 days more Alex. Then you can fill me unless you want to penetrate me now, your penis would be at bit bloody."

Napangiwi si Alexander dahil sa sinabi ni Tiffany. "I'll just endure. 2 days is not that long right?"

At doon na natawa si Tiffany dahil ang isang hayok sa sex, kaya pa rin magtimpi kahit paano.
