We slept together in his room. Nagising na lang kami noong kumatok si Darrel, tinatawag kami para bumaba at makakain na ng dinner.
Oh! Tita's already here!
Ano ba kasi ang arte ni Demi, tuloy ay inabot pa ako ng gabi rito. Ang sabi ko kina mama ay may ihahatid lang ako saglit.
Demiel was hugging me so I couldn't move. Dahan-dahan kong tinatanggal ang kamay niyang nakayakap sa bewang ko. Natuwa ako nang matanggal ko iyon nang hindi siya nagigising.
I was about to stand up when he hugged me again. Ganito na lang ba talaga kalakas ang pakiramdaman niya?
He groaned when I shoved his arms away from me. Kanina pa kami natutulog at wala na akong nagawang matino sa buong araw na ito.
"Demiel," nagbabantang tawag ko. "We have to eat dinner." I told him.
Binitawan niya ako nang marinig niya iyon. Looks like he wasn't aware about what time is it already.
Umupo ako sa gilid niya. He stretched his arms so he could reach and get his phone to check the time. Mugto pa rin ang mga mata niya dahil kagigising niya lang din talaga. Kaunti pang nakapikit ang mga mata niya, nasisilaw dahil sa liwanag ng screen niya.
"And after that?"
"Uuwi," I replied.
Natahimik siya kaya nilingon ko. Nakapatong ang braso niya sa kaniyang mata.
Lumapit ako sa kaniya para haplusin ang noo niya. Okay na ang temperatura ng katawan niya. Hindi na siya nilalagnat.
"Do you have an extra toothbrush?" I asked.
I covered my mouth using my hand. Bumuga ako para maamoy ang sariling hininga ko. Hindi ko gusto ang amoy. Halatang bagong gising ako. Nakakahiya naman kung haharap ako roon nang ganito ang amoy ng hininga ko.
"Bakit?"
Of course, I'll borrow one.
"Wait," he stood up and looked to his drawer. "Meron," he said.
"I'm not comfortable with this. Hindi ko kayang magsalita kung ganito. I would be really uncomfortable. I couldn't speak after knowing that I have a bad breath."
I was seriously telling him that when he spill a joke.
"Pahiram na lang kita nung sa akin, gusto mo?"
I shook my head. Halatang magaling na nga.
"Demiel," I glared at him.
"Heto na po."
He handed me the toothbrush. I went to the bathroom so I could freely brush my teeth. I even used the mouthwash I saw there. I just really wanna make sure that I'm not having a bad breath anymore.
Pagkalabas ko ay hindi ko na siya nakita sa loob ng kwarto niya. Nauna na sigurong bumaba sa akin.
I checked my phone before I went downstairs. I saw 13 unread messages.
Ayaw ni tita ang may gumagamit ng phone tuwing kumakain kaya itanago ko na muna iyon. I'll just read those messages later on. That can wait, right? Mabilis lang naman akong kumain.
"Good evening, Tita." I greeted politely.
Hinila ni Demi ang upuan sa tabi kaya roon ako umupo.
Inabot ni tita ang kanina sa akin. Kumuha lang ako ng kaunti, 'yong alam kong kaya ko lang ubusin..
"Good evening, hija." she greeted back. I smiled at her.
Darrel was sitting beside her. He was holding his spoon. Pinakita niya pa sa akin ang design no'n kaya napangiti ako nang malawak.
