Nagising ako dahil sa sinag ng araw na tumatagos sa bintana ng aking kuwarto. Mahina akong napadaing dahil ramdam ko ang mahapdi kong maselang bahagi.
Nilingon ko ang gilid ko at doon ko lang napansin na wala si Kaleb sa tabi ko. Baka nasa labas lang.
Yumuko ako at humilamos ang palad sa mukha. Hindi ko makakalimutan kung paano kami naging hayok sa bawat isa kagabi.
Para kaming uhaw sa isa't-isa kaya ilang beses ang nangyari sa amin na halos umagahin na kami.
Kung noon nakakailang rounds lang kami pero kagabi... namula ang mukha ko. Dumoble ang bilang ng pagtatalik namin. Mas nadama rin namin ang init ng katawan dahil hindi siya nagsuot ng condom.
Tumayo na ako at diretsong nagtungo sa banyo nang napansin na mali-late na ako sa school. I wonder why Kaleb didn't wake me up.
Sinilip ko pa ang kusina pero wala naman siya roon. Nakita ko na lamang na may nakahaing pagkain sa lamesa.
Mukhang in-order niya lang dahil wala namang nagalaw na gamit pangluto. Napangiti ako. Baka nga umuwi lang sa bahay nila.
I went inside the bathroom and showered myself with warm water and straightly poured it out of my body. I couldn't help but smile.
Hindi ko makalimutan ang mga sinabi niya kagabi. We had a little fight, but it's just word for word. But then again, like what I said... he always finds some ways to make us be good.
Napapikit ako at dinama ang pagbagsak ng maligamgam na tubig sa aking katawan.
"Let's get married, Kyline..." those words coming from him made me shocked. Pero sa huli ay napunta sa biruan.
I'm too young, we're too young to be tied. I could feel his sincerity from his mesmerizing eyes, but I'm not ready yet.
And the fact that we've just been in a relationship for almost four months, it's not enough to accept his words. We still need time.
"Wala pa ako sa ganoong pag-iisip, Kaleb. Oo mahal kita, pero hindi naman ibig sabihin na papasukin na natin ang sagradong kasal. Bata pa tayo..." sambit ko.
He just nodded.
"Tsaka, alam mo namang nag-aaral pa ako. Ikaw ang nakakaalam kung gaano ko kagustong makapagtapos sa pag-aaral," mahinahon kong sinabi.
"You can still achieve your dreams with me, Kyline. Puwede mo namang abutin ang lahat nang kasama ako. I'm here to support you," he said genuinely.
I smiled blissfully. "I know, Kaleb. But I want to be a better person for you..."
"You're enough..." aniya.
I shook my head and touched his face. "Hindi pa. Kailangan ko pang may marating. Hindi basta-basta ang pamilya mo. Ayoko naman humarap sa kanila na wala akong nararating."
"My family will accept you-"
"You're not sure about that. I'm just a part timer waitress and you're a heir of your company. I was nothing compared to you, Kaleb. Kaya hindi mo ako masisisi kung bakit mababa ang tingin ko sa sarili ko-"
He shook his head and quickly kissed me on my lips.
"Please, stop bragging about yourself. You're perfect in my eyes. People's status will never be a reason to not be loved. Everyone deserves to be cherished, everyone deserves to be happy."
"Pero Kaleb..."
"My mother was a waitress before she knew daddy. They were tested by destiny but in the end, destiny made them together despite their trial. So it doesn't matter your status, I am in love with you. And that matters the most," sensiro niyang wika.
