                            AB IMO PECTORE

   
      Marklov and Soairse landed on Moscow, Sheremetyevo Airport after 25 hours and 10 minutes using Marklov's private plane and they are finally on their way  to Marklov's home in Novosibirsk, one of the finest city in Russia. Winter is still ongoing in Russia since it starts in november to march and it's only february kaya naman madaming dalang winter coats si Soairse to protect him and his little one, He also sent Babelyn a message that they will be visiting her after a week because Marklov wouldn't let him travel himself, Tatapusin daw muna nito ang  mga problema ng kompanya nito bago sila pumunta sa bahay ng kaibigan.



          Inalalayan ni Marklov si Soairse pababa sa saksakyan, Ingat na ingat ang binata sa pagkakahawak sa kanyang mag-ama. ''Are you cold?'' He asked ng mapansing medyo nanginginig si Soairse, ''Nope, not really. Haha'' He replied, Napangiti nalang din si Marklov saka sinamahan muna siyang pumasok sa mansion nito, He made sure that Soairse went inside bago siya bumalik sa kanyang sasakyan para kunin ang kanilang mga maleta at iba pang mga kagamitan.

  Soairse is unpacking his and Marklov's clothes for a good months when his phone rang, Schuyler's ID popped out kaya dali-dali niya naman 'tong sinagot. ''How are you?'' Panimula ng kanyang kakambal, He put him on speaker and continued unpacking their clothes. ''I'm good! I'm unpacking our clothes right now. Ikaw? Kumusta ka? Oh yeah, we just landed an hours ago.'' Soairse replied cheerfully. He doesn't have any time to worry and to be scared about the stalking dahil may buhay siyang dinadala sa kanyang sinapupunan at ayaw niyang maapektuhan 'to lalo na't maselan ang pagbubuntis ng mga carrier na katulad niya. ''Then, make sure that you rest. Also, Be extra careful. Always drink your milk and eat, Don't your dare skip any meals!'' Schuyler said like a mother. Napangiti siya dahil sa inasal ng kanyang kakambal. ''Yes okasan! I won't forget everything that you told me just--now! Haha'' Soairse replied, Schuyler just tsked before hanging up the call,

        Eksakto namang pumasok si Marklov sa loob ng kanilang kuwarto, Tinitigan lang nito si Soairse na busy sa pagiimpake ng kanilang gamit. He looks so gorgeous as always, Nilapitan niya 'to saka niyakap. Napatigil naman si Soairse sa ginagawa saka tiningnan siya ng malumanay,' ''Yeah? Are you okay?'' Soairse asked.

''No-uh I mean, It's nothing. I just wanna hug you.'' Marklov replied he then kissed Soairse's cheek. The latter just shook his head bago ipinagpatuloy ang ginagawa, Maya-maya pa biglang tumunog ang cellphone ni Marklov, He got his latest Iphone model from his pocket and then check the caller ID, It's Savannah. Marklov groaned at napansin ito ni Soairse, ''Answer her. She's calling'' Soairse said at mapapansin dito ang pagkainis sa tono ng pananalita, Pinisil ni Marklov ang kanyang mga braso saka natawa, ''You want me to answer her? Because I don't to answer her call, Baby.'' Tanong ni Marklov, Irap lang ang natanggap niya kay Soairse and so he declined Savannah's call.

   Savannah has been making ruckus in Ares palace from time to time, When Marklov went there to fix the commotion, He talked to Savannah and the girl kept threatening him saying that she will hurt Soairse at muntikan niya ng masampal 'to. He decided  that he will live with Soairse and so he did just to make sure that his Mi Amor is safe and sound lalo na't may anak na silang paparating. Marklov heaved a deep sigh, Hinalikan niya muna si Soairse bago bumaba para pumunta sa kusina to check his fridge kung may mga stock paba siya but when he opened his refrigerator, He only saw a 5 eggs and a 10 canned of beer, Napahilot siya sa sentido, Vale. He knew it was his older brother's canned beers, Dito kasi nagstay nung nakaraan dahil may inasikaso sa business ng kanilang ama. Marklov get rid of those 10 canned beers before calling out for Soairse, ''BABY?ARE YOU COMING WITH ME TO BUY OUR GROCERIES??'' Sigaw niya bago kumuha ng malamig na tubig dahil kanina pa siya nauuhaw. ''AHH YES,WAIT FOR ME, I'LL JUST CHANGE MY COAT!'' Soairse yelled back,

  ''I'm planning to make Pelmini and beef stroganoff'' Marklov whispered, Pelmini and Beef Stroganoff are one those famous dishes in Russia, And he wants Soairse to taste them and of course to somehow show off his cooking skills. Maya-maya pa bumaba na si Soairse, Natawa si Marklov ng makitang balut na balot ang binata, Nilapitan niya ito saka hinawi ang mahahabang buhok nito na nakaharang sa kanyang mukha, Hindi niya din maiwasan na pisil-pisilin ang mamula-mula nitong mga pisnge, He then kissed Soairse's thin and pinkish lips. ''Hmm, stopppp!'' Soairse said when he realized that Marklov is not planning to let go of his lips, Marahan niya 'tong itinulak saka pinisil ang ilong nitong tila hinulma ng isang magaling na skulptura. ''Haha,I'm sorry baby. C'mon'' Yaya nito sa kanya, Soairse hold Marklov's hand at sabay na silang lumabas.



    Beautiful sceneries, Iyon ang mga nakikita ng mata ni Soairse. He only went to Japan and China dahil hanggang duon lang naman siya pinapayagan ng ama nila na pumunta unlike Schuyler who has been traveling in different countries for a long time, In short, It's Soairse's first time going in Russia kaya hindi niya mapigilang mamangha. ''You like it?'' Marklov asked when he saw that Soairse's eyes keep beaming. ''Yeah..oh my god, I actually loved it!!'' Soairse squeaked, His gaze turned to Marklov who is busy driving saka hinawakan  ang kamay ng binata na nakalagay sa mga hita nito, Marklov felt hot when he realized that Soairse is actually squeezing it gently. ''Are you going to buy us a lot of foods?'' Soairse looks like a child who's asking his father if he's going to buy him a lot of toys and foods. ''Yes, of course baby. You can tell me anything you want and we'll get it.'' Marklov said at pasimple nitong kinuha ang kamay ni Soairse na nakahawak na ngayon sa kanyang hita, He hold Soairse's hand instead saka nagpatuloy sa pagdadrive.



     While driving, Soairse eyes caught someone that made his heart stopped beating for the mean time. What is he doing here? He saw a man, A young man that looks exactly like his otusan. Nakaupo ito sa isa mga upuan sa loob ng isang café na may kausap na babae at dahil mahina lang naman ang pagdadrive ni Marklov, Soairse managed to have a peek on the man's face for 15 seconds,Agad siyang napakapit sa kanyang pouch na dala at bigla umurong, Trying his best to fit his entire upper body sa lagayan ng seatbelt sa gilid, His anxiety rises and agad naman 'tong napansin ni Marklov at akmang hihinto sana ito when Soairse looked at him desperately, ''N-no keep, Keep driving.'' nauutal nitong litanya,Marklov didn't bother to ask why, He swiftly yet safely drive until he saw Soairse loosened his grip and is trying to move forward slowly.


    Asahi-niisan?

A lot of mistreated memories suddenly came rushing by as Soairse felt like he is losing some oxygen.
