The next day, he was so extra caring with me. Unang bungad ng mga mata, nakangiting mukha na niya ang nakita ko. He kissed my lips upon realizing I was staring, too.
"Good morning, baby."
"It still hurts," I murmured. "How long will it hurt?"
His side lip angled. "Baby, it's my first time with a virgin. How would I know? I think we brought an analgesic?"
I pouted, "Ano 'yon tinatanong mo muna sila?"
He laughed a bit. "No. I don't ask, just so you know. Sa bar sila naman lumalapit. Gets na agad 'yon sa bar."
"Nagba-bar naman kami, hindi namin alam na rule pala 'yan," irap ko.
He looked at me weighing things, maybe. "Fine, I'm sorry I didn't wait for you. Malay ko bang magbo-boyfriend ka. Sabi nila Xandro, study first ka dati. Then, when I knew, I respected your relationship. Tss. Gusto mo ba inagaw kita? I don't want you to be a cheater."
"Whatever," I murmured. "Si Angeliquè..."
"I don't do friends. Mostly, I met during night outs. Can we stop this? It's weird."
Lumayo ako at sinubukang bumangon. I saw blood stains. I smiled inside, no regrets.
Hinila niya ako agad at niyakap. "Higa muna tayo. Gutom ka na ba?"
"Nakakahiya may stain 'yong mattress, i-wipes mo. Tapos lipat tayo ng airbnb? Nakakasawang one month na dito tayo."
He nodded. "I'll look later. And I'll wipe it. What do you want to eat? Pa-room service muna tayo."
We ate silently, halos subuan niya ako kasi tamad na tamad akong gumalaw. He did wipe the sheet, tapos maghapon na nasa kwarto lang kami.
By night, we went out to go back to Shibuya. Feeling ko dahil isang buwan kami dito, tataba kaming pareho. We ate non-stop, tried most cuisines, street foods and local foods.
After a week of stay in a hotel, we moved to an airbnb, it was spacious and cozy. At least dito nakakaluto kami, 'tsaka mas hawak namin ang oras. Minsan kasi nakakatamad lumabas, pero kailangan maglinis ng hotel staff.
Most days, we went to different shops to buy some pasalubongs. Sa ibang araw naman pumunta kami sa mga tour na na-book ko. Pero halos sayang kasi tinatamad ako madalas lumabas.
"Cali..." I moaned again, against his mouth. For weeks, we've been doing it almost everyday.
"Yes, baby?" He teased me more.
"Please?"
He chuckled then thrust inside me. "Ever impatient."
"Ah.. slow down."
He laughed even more, and didn't hear my plea, "As if that's what you want."
"I hate you," I uttered against his neck. He looked at me and smiled sweetly.
"You hate me but you love me? Tss. I love you so much, Trinabella Gail."
Halos lahat ng parte ng bahay na 'to, nakapag-milagro na kami. Do I regret any? Sometimes when I think of my mom. But, it won't linger that long, I want him to mark me as his, because I have always been his lady.
He caressed my face before landing his weight on me after his release. "Anong gusto mong kainin?"
"Lalabas tayo?"
