Mistress Turned into Wife ( Mistress Series Part 2 )

Chapter 17a

17a

Pagkarating namin sa bahay ay agad nagpahinga si Aleina. Tumawag naman ako kina Mama at Tita Michelle na safe kaming nakauwi.

"Ma? Bakit napatawag kayo? May nakalimutan ba kayong sabihin kanina?"

"It was just that.. Anak, we'll be flying home tomorrow. And.. And please pakitawagan agad si Manang sa bahay para ihanda ang apat na guestrooms."

"Apat? Magagamit lahat ng guestrooms?"

"And tell Manang also to lock your room.."

"Wait, ma! It's okay kung magagamit yung room ko at--"

"Anak.. I am just worried. Really worried." I heard her sigh.

"Ma.. Ano bang meron?"

"Magpahinga ka na lang, anak. And make sure Aleina's fine.."

"She's fine, mom, with me. She'll be always fine.."

I heard her sighed so deep again that it made me curious and worried. Hindi naman kasi ganoon si mama. She's always calm and composed.

Umakyat naman ako agad sa kwarto namin pagkatapos kong tawagan si Manang sa bahay.. Tinitigan ko ang payapa at maamong mukha ni Aleina. Sya na nga talaga.. Walang duda. Sya talaga yung papakasalan ko at gusto kong makasama habambuhay. Is that weird or corny or too cheesy? Cause I really don't care at all.

"Hon.. Hon, wake up.." mahinang pagyugyog sa braso ko ang aking naramdaman. Pagkamulat ng mga mata ko ay agad akong hinalikan ni Aleina.

"I am gutom. Can you make me a midnight snack?" she pouted.

"You bothered me sleeping just for me to cook? Cmon, Aleina..."

"Eeh. Is it my fault na nagutom ako?"

"Tss. Oo na. Babangon na.."

Nakaupo pa lang ako sa gilid ng kama ng bigla syang yumakap sa likod ko. She buried her face on my neck..

"Thank you, hon. Girls, they must be really jealous that I already have you? You know what, hon? I am lucky to have you.. Lucky that you're by my side. Lucky that you loved me inspite of all my issues.."

"You really had a good sleep, huh? You're sweet.."

"You're ruining the moment!" hinampas nya ako ng mahina sa braso. I laughed at her..

"Cmon. Samahan mo akong magluto sa baba! I love you, Aleina, don't you ever doubt it. Hmm?"

"I won't.."

Sa sobrang pangungulit nya sakin ay hindi ako nakapagluto kaya nauwi kaming dalawa sa ice cream. Mango is her flavor when it comes to ice cream, cake, smoothies or whatsoever.. She's really a pig when it comes to mango or strawberry.

She burped. She looked at me.. "Auh. Sorry? I really am hungry.."

"I know. You're a pig when hungry."

"Yaaah! That's not tue." she rolled her eyes at me. Isiniksik naman nya ang sarili nya sa akin habang nasa sofa kami at nanonood ng movie.

"What's the title of that movie again?"

"Love, Rosie."

"I conclude it is all about destiny.." nilingon ko sya at napansin kong umiiyak sya. I tried not to laugh cause it's her moment.

"Umabot sya.. Umabot sya.. Pero tapos na yung kasal!" she sniffed.

"That's life, honey. Don't cry too much."

"I want to watch a movie bigscreen later.. Let's go?"

"Sure.. Pero matulog na muna tayo after that movie, ok?"

She nodded. Well, nagkatuluyan naman yung mga bida sa huli. Such cliche. Pero I liked it.. Kasi kung ako rin naman yung nasa movie, I would do all impossible things just to be with Aleina..
