Convicted Innocence (1)

Chapter 14

Hindi pa man sumikat ang araw ay gising na ako. Mag-aala y sais palang. I went to the bathroom to freshen up myself. Going out of my room stretching my arms.

When I reached the living room I opened the curtains and the windows, and went inside the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

I was just arranging everything when I saw her slowly walking towards where I am. Her 'woke up like this' never gets old.

"Good morning." Nakangiti kong bati sa kanya.

"Good morning, love." Mahinang sagot nito habang nakapikit pa. This tiger can be a baby sometimes. Love daw.

"Zi! Magandang umaga. Makikikain ako." Diretso itong pumasok sa loob. Hearing Flavio's voice made me move towards Yshmael fast and hugged her making my back facing the vision of Flavio.

"Anong ulam, Zi?" Walang pake nitong sabi.

"Who is that?" Tanong naman nitong kayakap ko I just whispered later.

I could feel Yshmael's arms wrapped me up, yung dibdib niya ramdam na ramdam ko.

"Hoy, Zi!" Pareho talaga sila ni Sam ng bunganga eh. Papalapit na ang yabag nito kaya I inhaled deeply.

This woman in my arms is just wearing an oversized shirt with no bra and just underwear underneath. Goodness.

"You look sexy with your get-up, but it's not meant for others." I said softly while I hugged her tightly.

"Flavio ,tumalikod ka!" Mabilis kong saad when I feel him.

"Bakit?" Sabat pa nito.

"Basta, wag haharap ng hindi ko sinasabi. Subukan mo, Flavio." Nagbabantang saad ko.

I could feel the breath of this woman, dahan-dahan akong lumakad paatras. Nang medyo malapit na ako kay Flavio ay pinaharap ko ito habang pinagbaliktad ko kami ni Yshmael making my back still faces at Flavio.

"Para kang tanga, Zi." Rinig kong saad nito bago pumasok sa kusina.

"You change your clothes, okay? What do you have?" I asked her when we reached her room.

"Just the usual." She replied shortly then went inside leaving me at the door.

"I'll get you some." When I heard what she said I should not let her wear her usual clothes, because, no way. Too much skin to reveal when she said 'the usual' thing.

I looked for my clothes and got her a white sweater, it was from a volleyball league. It has my surname on the back but I haven't worn it.

"Here, that's clean and I haven't worn it." I said and placed it on the bed. I got out first and went to the kitchen seeing the food was halfway done.

"Meron pa Flavio, ubusin mo nalang kaya." Sambit ko nang makita ko ang pagkain sa mesa kanina.

"Ito naman, tinirhan kita oh. Tayong dalawa lang naman ang kakain ah." Sabat nito.

"Ewan ko sa iyo." I said then, took out something from the fridge and reheated it.

I turned on the stove and fry another cup of rice. I added some bacon and eggs too. Buti hindi pa nalapag ang niluto kong pakbet baka isang daanan lang to kay Flavio eh. Papatapos na ako when I heard a footsteps heading to the kitchen. He heard it too kaya abang na abang ang loko.

"Ayusin mo yang mata mo ha." Pagbabanta ko rito. Sinalubong ko si Yshmael at giniya papaupo. Nakanganga naman si Flavio, kaya tumikhim ako.

"Magandang umaga po, Ma'am." Mabilis itong tumayo at bahagyang yumuko.
