Undeniable Romance

TATLUMPU'T ISA

"I thought she's that smart and intelligent architect, yet she ended up with the guy who had a sex video before.."

WE'RE BASICALLY eating in the fine dining restaurant as I heard negative issues behind my back. I immediately let go of the utensils and let out a deep sigh.

I even look at Seve who look so mad right now.

"Don't fucking mind her!" Matigas na sabi nito at nagpatuloy sa pagkain.

Patience, Architect!

I shook my head as I continue eating. Ngunit nanadya yata ang mga babae at lalo lamang nagparinig ng masasamang salita.

"Funny, how pathetic she is!"

"How poor! Akala ko, matalino rin pagdating sa lalaki. Hindi pala."

Mabilis akong tumayo at kinuha ang basong naglalaman ng malamig na tubig. I immediately toss the water in her face na ikinatili nito.

"How dare you to do that!" She was about to slap me but I suddenly grab her hand.

"I don't even know you, Miss but I think you deserve that."

Tinaasan ko ito ng kilay.

"Maybe next time you better shut your fucking mouth and stop talking behind my back! Ang kapal naman yata ng mukha paringgan ako." I glare at her. "...this is my own life so you should mind your own. Hindi 'yung kani-kanino ka tumitingin. You should know yourself! Such a clown!" I turn my back on her.

Ang pangit pangit na nga nito, kung ano ano pa ang lumalabas sa bibig.

Ano bang pakialam niya kung si Seve pa rin ang pinili ko? Darn, masyado niyang pinoproblema ang buhay ko. Poor her!

We actually caught the attention of everyone. Kaagad naman akong nagpaumanhin sa nangyari.

"My apology Ma'am/Sir if we disturb you! It's just that, masyado lang kasing pakialamera ang babaeng 'yan at naiinggit yata sa akin. Pasensya na ho!" I bow my head at them tsaka tuloy tuloy na nilisan ang lugar.

I heard them laugh as I go out. Napabuntong hininga naman ako sa sama ng loob at mabilis na tinungo ang sasakyan.

"Wife...hindi mo na sana pinansin 'yon. Are you okay?" Seve suddenly ask me as he get inside the car. Dala dala nito ang gamit ko dahil naiwan ko ito sa sobrang galit ko.

"I'm good! Umuwi na tayo!" I gently massage my head as I close my eyes.

I just finished our contract with Mr. Aragon and I'm tired right now. I want to rest!

"Just don't mind it again...I'm sorry." he told me.

"Bat ka nagso-sorry? Wala ka namang kasalanan." I sighed.

"...about my issue before, baby. I feel so sorry." his voice is so calm.

Napabuntong hininga ako. "It does not matter at all to me. You're my husband now tsaka they don't have any rights to dictate me kung ano ang gusto ko. That from the past! Huwag mo nalang gagawin ulit kasi hindi ako magdadalawang isip na iwan ka."

I saw him smiled brightly after what I said.

"Let's go home! I'm tired, Seve." I yawn.

He remain silent as he nod his head. He started the engine and drive the car way to my house. I close my eyes and let myself fell asleep.
