The Pledge Between Us✨ [MED SERIES #9] COMPLETED

Chapter 28

Yung isa pang driver nila Justine yung naghatid sa amin sa airport, we used one of their vans, noong nalamam nga ng mga parents namin na kasama yung mga kapatid namin muntik pa silang sumama.

"Ilang oras daw na delayed?" nakasandal ako sa balikat ni Justine. Nasa kabilang table naman yung mga kapatid namin kasama yung mga girlfriend nila. Sila Kuya Lando at Kuya Jared ay kumuha ng makakain.

"One hour lang daw," sagot niya. "Kain muna tayo, anong gusto mo?"

"Kahit ano."

Our flight from NAIA to Honolulu lasted for twelve hours, noong nakarating kami sa airbnb na kinuha ng kapatid ko ay nagkanya-kanya pasok na kami sa mga kwarto namin. The house they got has six rooms, sa isa share na yung mga driver namin. At syempre kasama nila mga girlfriend nila kaya sila-sila din magkakasama.

Natulog lang din naman kami matapos naming makapagpalit at maayos yung mga luggage namin.

Kinabukasan, hapon na kami nagising na parehas, nakapagluto na yung mga Kuya namin. Their girlfriends were nice to me, parang nagkaroon ako ng Ate, they talked mostly about their law school life before and their life now as working adults.

"Ugh!"

"Why? What happened?" he was quick to jump-off our bed when he heard me cussing.

"Meron na ako!"

He breathe like he was relieved. "I thought you slipped," he even check my arm.

"Nadala mo ba yung menstrual cup ko?" bigla kong naalala.

"Yeah, ata?"

Agad kong binuksan yung isang bag ko, I even jumped with enthusiasm. Nakalagay pa sa bewang niya yung mga kamay niya habang pinapanuod akong naglalagay ulit sa bag ko ng mga kinalat ko.

"I thought hindi komportable ilagay?" kinuha pa niya yung isa. "Ifofold muna ba bago mo ipasok?"

I wrinkled my forehead. "Malamang, tingin mo kakasya agad kapag hindi naka-fold?!"

"Malay ko, just asking," he laughed. "Anong difference sa pads?"

"Flat tas cup?" I joked around.

"Very funny," he hissed. "Magpalit kana, nagtatawag na sila Kuya Jayce."

"What are you going to wear?" he asked while doing something with his camera.

"This one," I showed him my red halter-type bikini. Tumayo naman siya. "You?"

"Can I wear just my board shorts?" his voice was teasing, I even saw how his lips playfully angled into a grin.

"Wear a shirt!" I kinda shouted, when he smiled I how he's enjoying my possessiveness. "Fine, balandra mo abs mo, nakakahiya naman pinaghirapan mo yan," may pang-aasar na sa boses ko.

"Wear a cover-up after our picture-taking then I'll wear a shirt, how about that?"

Iniisahan na naman ako ng kumag na 'to! Alam naman niyang ayokong nakikita ng iba yung abs niya eh!

"Saan ba tayo?" umupo ako sa kama noong nakapagsuot na ako ng bikini. Inaayos ko rin yung bag na dadalhin namin. Lumabas naman na siya ng bathroom namin, he wore a dark blue board shorts, tapos yung shirt niya Balmain na white, his wayfarer was Tom Ford, the one I gave him last Christmas.

"This one is good with your bikini," he handed me my gentle monster sunglass. "Takip na takip mukha mo," rinig kong bulong niya.

"Picture muna tayo," sabi ko sabay patong nung camera sa corner cabinet, naglakad ako nang mabilis palapit sa kanya. "Lover, smile!" I kissed his cheek.
