CEDRO's POV

I am sitting at the edge of the bed while Onyx is behind me, drying my hair with a towel. The way he caresses my head was gentle as if he was afraid to hurt me even for a single bit.

"You know I can just use the blower, Odrius." Maya maya'y sambit ko.

"The blower will ruin your hair." his voice was hoarse and husky in a  comforting way. "Besides, I love drying your hair for you."

Hindi ko gustong aminin pero ang magkabila kong pisngi ay namumula dahil sa ginagawa niya. Hindi ko alam kung sa hiya ba 'yon o baka.. eto yata 'yong sinasabi ni Caden na kinkilig.

Onyx has ever been so gentle towards me. He takes care of me well and it feels.. nice.

But in the middle of the rejoicement of my heart, I remembered what Lucas had said to me when we once spoke. I know it's not the perfect time to talk about it since I don't want to spoil the atmosphere but.. it's now or never.

"Odrius." tawag ko sakaniya.

"Yes, kid?"

Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin dahil sa tinawag niya sakin.

Tumawa siya saka inulit ang sinabi.
"Yes, Cedro?"

"I heard about your past." humina ang boses ko. Nag-aalinlangan ako kung tama nga ba 'tong ginagawa kong pagbubukas sa ganitong usapan pero nasimulan na kaya itutuloy ko na. "You having a lot of.. sugar babies."

Odrius chuckled upon hearing the last word. "Sino nagsabi sayo nyan?"

"Hindi na importante 'yon." tinanggihan kong sagutin siya. "So  is it true? About the sugar babies?"

"Lucas told you?"

"Wag mo kong sagutin ng tanong, Odrius!" My patience is running out with him answering my questions with another question.

Binaba niya ang hawak na towel saka ako hinawakan sa bewang at dahan dahang hinarap sakaniya.
"Yeah, it's true." sagot niya at hindi ko alam kung ano ang dapat na  maramdaman. "..but it's all in the past now, Cedro. Pinutol ko na ang koneksyon ko sakanila simula nung makilala kita noon sa Italya."

Ngumiti siya at hinawakan ang pisngi ko. "None of them were able to satisfy me anymore. You know you look so hot beating me up that time, I had a hard on."

Tinampal ko ang kamay niyang nasa pisngi ko. "Hòrny mòtherfucker."

His laugh echoed within the four walls of the room. He really does enjoy making me mad.

"Are you really sure that you don't have any sugar babies right now, Onyx?" Maya maya'y muli akong nagtanong. "The least thing that I want is a cheating boyfriend." Unti-unting gumuhit ang isang nakakalokong ngiti sa labi niya na ipinagtaka ko. "What?"

"You called me your boyfriend. Does that mean we're in a relationship now?"

"We kiss every now and then and you still ask that?! Idiot pervert!" sigaw ko at muling tumalikod sakaniya.

I heard him chuckle again.

"Tumigil ka! Walang nakakatawa!"

Naramdaman ko nalang ang mga bisig niya na yumakap sakin mula sa likod. Pinatong niya ang ulo sa balikat ko.

"You're so cute, Cedro." natatawa pa ring sambit niya at ang traydor kong pisngi namula na naman.
"But to answer your question honestly, I do have a sugar baby right now.." I froze in shock hearing those words from him.
