ONE week after, Doctor Chantria dismissed Calina. Niresitahan niya na lang ng gamot si Calina para sa mabilis nitong pag-galing. Calina is also eager to get out of the hospital because of Lurusus' promise. Three days ago, Lurusus offered me to finally move into the house he bought for me.

Tatanggi na sana ako kaso nalaman ko na nalipat na pala lahat ng gamit namin sa bagong bahay. Lurusus ordered someone to go to our house and gather our things without my knowledge. When I confronted Lurusus about it, he was just chilling about it.

When Crystel told me about what happened, because I told her to go back to the house and get some documents, I received a call from her saying that the house was already empty when she arrived.

Ang tanging natira lamang ay isang sulat na kung saan sinasabi roon na nilipat na raw lahat ng gamit namin sa bagong bahay. Then on the last part of the note, Lurusus' name was stated and there was even a signature of him above his name.

Galit kong binuksan ang pintuan pagkatapos kong matanggap ang tawag ni Crystel. I went straight to Lurusus before grabbing his wrist and pulling him towards the exit. Thankfully, the three are engulfed in the cartoon that they are watching on Lurusus' phone and they didn't notice that I snatched their father, especially Calina who's very clingy to her father.

Noong nasa labas na kaming dalawa, dahan-dahan kong sinara ang pintuan para hindi nila kami marinig. Pagkatapos kong isinara ang pintuan, mabilis kong hinarap si Lurusus na mukhang naguguluhan sa ginagawa ko.

"Why did you do that?" I hissed at him.

His forehead furrowed while looking at me. "What did I do?"

"Bakit hindi ka nagpaalam sa akin na ililipat mo iyong mga gamit namin?" gigil na tanong ko sa kaniya.

Hindi siya nakasagot kaagad at mukhang nag-isip pa. Seconds later, I saw how his face changed. Looks like he realized what I am talking about.

"Nagpaalam kaya ako," depensa niya sa sarili.

Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay. "Kailan?"

Ngumiti siya sa akin. "Noong tulog ka."

"Taran---" Napatigil ako sa pagsasalita noong mabilis na tinapalan ni Lurusus ang bibig ko.

Pinanlakihan ko siya ng mga mata para alisin niya ang kaniyang kamay pero mabilis siyang umiling sa akin bago napatingin sa aking likuran. Nilabas ko ang aking dila bago dinilaan ang kaniyang kamay para sana tanggalin na niya iyon pero nagulantang ako at bahagyang napatalon noong may nagsalita sa aking likuran.

"Mama? Papa? What are you doing po?"

Nanlaki ang mga mata ko bago napatingin sa aking likuran at nakita ko si Calina na nakatunghay sa amin. She's holding a piece of tangerine on her left hand while looking at us with curiosity.

I shook my head at her before smiling like nothing happened. I glanced at Lurusus who was grinning from ear to ear. Mahina ko siyang siniko sa kaniyang tiyan para alisin ang kaniyang ngiti pero mas lumaki pa ang ngiti niya sa kaniyang labi.

"Mama was licking---"

Mabilis kong tinakpan ang bibig ni Lurusus at pilit na ngumiti kay Calina.

"Nothing. We're just talking, Calina." Then I forced a chuckle. "Mauna ka na sa loob anak. Kakausap---" Nahigit ko ang aking hininga noong naramdaman ko ang dila ni Lurusus sa aking palad. Sensuwal iyong gumagalaw at naramdaman ko rin ang paggalaw ng kaniyang labi na para bang kahalikan niya ang aking kamay.
