"I've bought you Iced Americano and strawberry cake, Babe. May gusto ka pa?"
Nakangiting ibinaba ko ang aking salamin sa mesa saka nilapitan si Zacharias na inaayos ang mga dala niya sa maliit na mesa. He was wearing his white-longsleeves polo that was tucked in his black pants. Nakagat ko ang aking ibabang labi bago niyakap siya sa bewang mula sa likod.
Napahinto siya sa ginagawa saka bumaling sa akin. He went down and kissed my forehead then smiled. "Is my Summer tired? Pahinga ka muna. "
I bit my lower lip and kissed his cheek. "Ayos lang. "Napunta ang tingin ko sa kape at napangiti. "Thank you, Babe. I really need a cup of coffee right now. Wala si Ria. "
Kinuha niya iyon at maingat na inilagay sa kamay ko. "Drink it. You look tired. Do you want me to read those instead? " Sabay tingin niya sa mga papeles na nasa mesa ko.
Agad naman na umiling ako. "No, It's okay. I know busy ka din. 'Di ba may revision ka ng blue print sa San Pablo-"
"Makapaghihintay naman 'yon." He smiled before pulling me to sit on the couch. "Pahinga ka muna. I'll just read them out loud, and you can tell me what I should do with them after that. Is that all right? " Bumaba ang mata niya sa palad ko bago iyon dinala sa labi niya.
When he kissed my hand, something inside of me fluttered. "Your hands look tired too. I'm sure kanina ka pa nagtatrabaho."
Hindi ko na napigilan ang lalaki nang seryosong naglakad na ito sa desk ko at inayos ang mga papel. I was listening and instructing him on what to do after that. While he was reading aloud the appeals that needed revision, I just couldn't help but stare at him while sipping my coffee.
He was very attractive leaning on my table, his red lips moving. When I noticed how his arm flexed while flicking the pages, I gasped. His hair was a little unkempt, but that only adds to his expression. Gwapo naman ng boyfriend ko.
"Babe, does this one need some adjustments? What do you think? "
Napakurap ako ng ilang ulit. Narealize ko na hindi na pala ako nakikinig kanina pa. Nawili ako kakatitig sa kaniya. "H-ha?"
He lifted his head and looked at me with confused eyes. You noted something here, Babe. It says, "motion for reconsideration.". What exactly does this one mean?"
Napailing ako saka lumapit sa harapan niya. "It's when you are asking the judge to reconsider his or her ruling. A motion for reconsideration takes place before an appeal may be taken from an order or ruling of the commission by petition for review. That's a second trial. " I explained.
My gaze returned to him, and he stared at me in awe. Ibinaba niya ang papel saka itinaas ang kamay sa ere. "Come here."
I approached him and was taken aback when he drew me into his lap. He smothered me in kisses, which made me chuckle. Anong trip ng lalaking 'to?!
"Zacharias! Stop! B-baka matapon ang kape ko! Talagang mabibilhan mo ako ng bago!" Natatawang sambit ko pero pinanggigilan lang ako ng lalaki.
"Your brain really turns me on, Babe. "Malakas na napailing ako saka hinampas siya sa braso. He groaned playfully, but then he just wrapped his arms around my waist and fell silent.
"Do you want me to sit here?" I asked.
He nodded several times before kissing my shoulder. "Yes. Dito ka lang. I want to cuddle. "
I was just getting used to our situation, and since we've been dating, simple silence like this has left a permanent mark on my heart. Kahit wala naman masyadong ganap sa araw ko ay kahit kasama ko lang siya, I felt okay and at ease. Kontento ako.
