Drowning In Your Love

28

Regalo

"Nigel..."

He started kissing my chin down to my neck, leaving me breathless.

My body trembled when he lick and suck the sensitive part of my neck and collarbone. I can't help but close my eyes even tighter when a little shivers of pleasure run through me.

Ang isang kamay niya ay hinahaplos pa rin ang likod ko habang ang isa naman ay nakahawak lang sa leeg ko para ipirmi ang aking ulo na gusto nang bumagsak sa dibdib niya dahil sa sensasyon.

Just when I felt a bulge near my stomach and between Hezekiah's thighs, his lips went back to my lips.

"Let's get married when you turn twenty..." He whispered between our kiss.

"Hmm?" Tanging halinghing nalang ang lumalabas sa labi ko.

"I don't think I can wait more longer."

Pagkasabi niya noon ay itinigil niya ang paghalik sa akin, at kung hindi niya iniangat ang nahulog na sleeves ng cardigan ko, hindi ko rin mapapansin na halos nasa siko ko na pala ito. Magulo na rin ang pagkakasuot ko ng aking pajama top at inayos niya rin iyon.

"Am I too fast?" Hezekiah asked in his gentle voice.

Kaagad akong umiling.

It's our second kiss tapos may ganoon na. But I don't really feel that there's something wrong with it. We're engange, he's going to be my husband, it's normal.

"Just tell me if you're uncomfortable, okay?"

Tumango ako.

Hezekiah smiled and slightly stroke my hair. We're just staring at each other while he's doing that to me.

Sobrang lakas pa rin ng kalabog ng dibdib ko dahil sa nangyari kanina. Dumagdag pa iyong sinabi niya. It left me in faze.

"You..."

Gosh. Heart, can you calm down for a second? Hindi na ako makapagsalita ng maayos, oh.

"You want us to get married in two years?" I finally said it.

Bahagyang napatigil si Hezekiah sa paghaplos sa buhok ko, pero kaagad niya rin naman binalik.

"Puwede na tayong magpakasal anumang oras ngayon. But you just turned eighteen and I want you to enjoy your college life before we start our family...But I think, two years is my limit, Tiana."

I can't help but smile.

"So you're gonna break off our engagement if I told you that I want us to get married after I graduated from college?"

Hezekiah paused again, then he stared at me for a moment.

"Damn..." Bulong niya tapos inilapag ang ulo sa dibdib ko. "You know I can't do that..."

Medyo nabigla ako sa ginawa niya pero kalaunan ay napangiti nalang ulit. I started stroking his hair.

"My only options is to wait patiently until you finish college or just do my best to force you to marry me the sooner the better."

"The sooner the better?" I whispered.

"The sooner the better." Ulit niya tapos pinatakan muli ng halik ang collarbone ko.

Habang nasa ganoon kaming posisyon, biglang tumunog ang phone niya. Hudyat na may tumatawag.

Nakapatong lamang ito sa kanyang table at dahil nakasubdob ang mukha niya sa dibdib ko, ako ang unang nakakita kung sino ang tumatawag.
