In Love Series 3: Completely

Kabanata 14

"I can't find the song you were singing when we first met," I pouted. Inayos ko ang pagkakasandal sa kaniya.

"Song? What song?" he asked. Lalo akong ngumuso, halos antukin sa paraan ng paghaplos niya sa aking buhok. "Ah, you mean stranger? That's the song I've worked last time."

Kaya pala hindi ko mahanap.

"Can you sing it? I want to hear it."

"Sure, my Duchess," he said and planted a kiss on my hair. Napangiti ako roon.

He hummed the intro. Like the first time, I was mesmerized by how good his vocal is. He is born to create music. He is born to conquer the stage.

"Turn around, turn around

And fix your eye in my direction

So there is a connection

I can't speak, I can't make a sound."

Mas sumandal pa ako sa kaniya. Ramdam ko ang paghigpit ng isang braso niyang nakayakap sa may dibidb ko habang ang isa naman ay patuloy sa paghaplos sa aking buhok.

In a not so romantic yet magical place... I really felt something inside my chest. A very strong emotion... Like the waves, when there is storm... disastrous, disturbing, untamed... unquiet.

Kaharap ang mapayapang lawa at ang bilog na bilog na buwan, kasabay ng pag-ihip ng malamig na hangin, tila nakahanap ako ng kapayapaan para sa ilang araw kong paghahanap nito.

While the others are celebrating on the other side, here we are, sitting on the aligned grass, having our moment alone... Feeling like we are a real couple... like we are so in love with each other.

Well, I think I'm in love with him.

"To somehow capture your attention

I'm staring at perfection

Take a look at me so you can see

How beautiful you are..."

Ang nakapahingang kamay sa aking hita ay itinaas ko at hinawakan ang kamay niyang nakayakap sa akin. Muli kong naramdaman ang labi niya sa parte ng ulo ko at ang pagpatong ng baba niya roon. Pagkatapos ay pinagsiklop ang aming mga kamay.

At ang kanina pang nagwawala kong puso ay mas lalo yatang nagwala. The little devil inside my chest wanted to explode for the feeling I promised I would never acknowledge.

Nakakatawang isipin na lagi kong sinsabi na hindin- hindi ako magpapatalo sa laro ng pag-ibig. Lagi kon ipinapaalala sa aking sarili na wala dapat akong panahon s amga ganitong bagay. Laging una ang pangarap pero ito ako ngayon, kasama ang Pilyong Kerubin, binubuwag ang mga paalala at mga pader na inilagay ko sa aking sarili.

For the thousand promises I made to myself before, only Ishmael Cairo Cherubin can break all of that.

"Sa wakas! Nagpakita ka na rin! How was your trip with the rapper of your life, Chrishane? Sarap ba ng Pilyong Kerubin?" iyon agad ang salubong sa akin ni Beatrice, Sunday evening when I agreed to their celebration. Umirap ako.
