Chapter 39

"I am awake now! You can stop!" I couldn't stop laughing early in the morning because of Zibon tickling me while blowing air onto my neck just so he could wake me up. I mean, gusto ko lang namang matulog?

I calmed down first before pulling the sheets closer to me. That also means it covered most of Zibon's body, too. I faced him and he was already smiling while darting his eyes straight to mine. My god, his eyes are the best.

He was looking too dreamy while staring at me so I blowed air directly to him and it made him flinched. I laughed once again.

"I think I forgot h-how to breathe!" he reacted.

Sinubukan ko ring amuyin ang sarili kong hininga.

Oh. His reaction is so valid. That indeed can make you forget how to breathe.

We both laughed at our reactions. Kulitan early in the morning? I mean, who am I to complain?

Parehas kaming kumalma at muling nagtitigan sa isa't-isa.

"Good morning, baby," he whispered.

I smiled. "Good morning."

He leaned closer so he could plant a kiss on my lips. I met him midway. After a short french kiss, sumandal ako sa dibdib niya habang nakapalupot ang mga kamay niya sa akin. I also wrapped my hands around him while both of us are still covered by the sheets. Wala kaming mga suot ngayon.

"I can never get tired of this, to be honest," he said while looking above his ceiling.

"Of what?" I asked.

"Of waking up next to you," he answered while playing with my hair.

May sumisilip na na sinag ng araw mula sa kurtina dahil may guhit na nito sa itaas. Hindi ko lang masabi kung anong oras na dahil medyo madilim pa sa loob ng kwarto ni Zibon dulot ng mga nakababang kurtina.

With the same position, I looked at him. Ginawaran niya ako ng tingin na puno ng admirasyon at pagmamahal. I equaled his gaze and gave him a morning smile.

It's been two months since that night. Luckily, everything became smooth. We slept in my unit that night. Pagkatapos 'non, palipat-lipat na kami ng unit. Minsan sa akin kami matutulog, minsan naman sa kanya. Ngayon, nandito kami sa place niya. We went clubbing last night and his condo was the closest from the club.

"I could say the same," I told him.

Napangiti siya dahil sa sinabi ko at pinatakan muli ako ng halik. He then decided to stand up. Nakatalikod ito sa akin habang naglalakad upang kunin 'yung underwear niya sa sahig. He dressed up in front of me.

"What do you want for breakfast? I'll cook," he said.
