Bonding

"I thought you only knew how to cook fried. It tastes nice!" Puri ko sa niluto niyang pagkain.

I'm still with him. Pinag-paalam niya ako at malakas siya sa parents ko, even with my brothers! I have no plans for this day and I'd been isolating myself these past few days, so I just agreed. I enjoy being with him naman although napakasakit niya sa ulo.

"What is this again?"

"Kaldaretang baka," he answered while watching me eat like a soldier. "You should eat more. You're so thin."

This man really likes his girls having the fat ass. I rolled my eyes at the thought.

"It tastes nice! You are a better cook than me!"

Alcaeus nodded playfully.

"I am really a full package. Maybe I should get married early... well, I want that..."

I coughed and choked on my food. He panicked and I signaled him to get me a water and he quickly did. I snatched the glass on his hand immediately and I sipped on it like I was thirsty for it!

How dare him joke like that! He's making me nervous and surprised!

"Fuck you!" I cursed him when I finally got back with myself.

"Why? I was just telling you that, it's not for you..." I rolled my eyes. "Don't worry. It's still far, you can still have me. But maybe 1 to 2 years? I really wanna get married."

"E 'di magpakasal ka. Pinipigilan ba kita?" Sarkastika kong sagot at uminon ng tubig pagkatapos. "I am not stopping you. Do whatever the fuck you want."

"I knew it. You'd cry," he touched his lips as it formed a smirk.

"You are too young to get married..." I stated. "But I get it. Your family wants you be tied at the very young age."

"No, they are out on that. I just want to get married at my age."

"B-But you are still y-young..." I stammered, staring at his eyes.

"Not so young. You are the young here."

He chuckled at me but I did not.

I am the young... does that mean that he wasn't referring to me? He stated earlier that it's not me! It's not for me? Maybe he's now planning our supposedly break up because it's been a month now. It was long overdue. And the issue died.

I need to think about it. I should be the one who would break it up.

And why am I assuming?!

"What's your plan for your future?" I suddenly came back with myself after hearing his voice.

"Huh?"

"Your plan for your future?"

Umismid ako.

Bakit siya nagtatanong?

"I want to achieve my dreams first before getting married..." I stopped. "I want to have a big family. I swear to God that I'd be a good mother."

I don't know why I was telling that to him with a heavy heart. I just want to have a peaceful conversation with him about the future but why do I have this feeling that what we have is only for now? That we will face our future apart? That's really where things should fall but why am I feeling off talking about it? I don't like it.

I planned a lot for myself and for my future family. I swear to Him that I'd never give my children the toxic household so that they can enjoy their youth without having the scared mind. I can really picture myself as a loving mother. My future husband would be lucky to have me.
