The Taste of Trouble of Skinny Dipping

Chapter Eleven

Punch

Some couples would say "ang bilis ng oras kapag kasama mo ang mahal mo, dahil di mo namamalayan na patapos na pala ang araw" but to me whenever I am with Adi the time is slower than its usual pace. Why? Just because every seconds, minutes, and hours that I am with him the time stops. I savor every little things we talked about, our snuggles and even our smooches.

Ganito pala kapag nagmahal ka ng totoo. Hindi sapat ang isang araw para sa inyo. Hindi buo ang araw mo kapag hindi siya kasama mo. Crazy little thing called love nga naman.

Two days ago after that night we became each other's 'boo' - I introduced him to my family. It was just a random day, I didn't even told my parents about me coming home with my boyfriend. My dad's reaction was hilarious, until now I am laughing about it.

Everyone's eyes are on us, specifically on our intertwined hands. I look at my dad, and he is furrowing his brows like a mad dog.

"Good evening Ma'am , Sir" Adi greeted my parents with a full smile.

My dad brows furrowed even closer. I am suppressing my laugh at him because this is the first time I saw my dad grimaced face. My dad is a very jolly person and I nearly saw him such a gloomy expression and seeing him with a unusual reaction makes me wanna burst into laughter.

"Oh common, just call us Tita and Tito" saad naman ni Mommy. "Come, sit with us and join us in dinner" pagyaya sa amin pa ni mommy.

We come to the table as what my mom told us to. I kissed dad's cheek first before sitting beside him. He cleared his throat then darted his intriguing gaze to Adi.

"Dad! stop scaring my man!" I told him.

It earned a laugh from my mom. "Don't mind him Iho, territorial father lang siya" baling ni mommy kay Adi.

"He has all the right to do so Tita, I totally understand. I, myself, would do the same if I have a daughter" magalang na sagot ni Adi.

Mabilis akong napabaling sa kaniya. Thinking how he will be if he will be a father. I can't help but to smile because I am hoping that I will be his wife in the future. Shocks! Ang assuming ko naman na ako ang magiging asawa niya. Well, we can naman  if things will work out for us.

I heard dad clearing his throat so I went back to reality and start eating again.

"You haven't sex yet right?" seryosong tanong niya sa amin.

"Raymond! Dad!" sabay pa kaming napasigaw ni mommy sa tanong ni daddy.

"What? I just ask a simple question. I don't want my daughter to get pregnant and he will never take responsibility for it" sagot niya trying to woo us to his argument.

I rolled my eyes to him and turn to Adi.

"Sorry about my dad--" I apologize to him and squeezed his hand.

"Why are you apologizing, there's nothing wrong with that question. I am father and so I am protective about my children's welfare" He cuts me off.

I felt Adi's grip tighter. So, I turned to face him and he gave me an assuring smile. Telling me that it's okay. I heaved a deep sigh.

"I understand where it is coming from Sir, as I've said if I have daughter I would ask the same and to answer your question po, we haven't do it yet Sir, but we will in the future and if that time comes she will no longer my girlfriend" he said with all sincerity but I paused at his last sentence.
