Chasing Stars

chapter 11

Boracay...

Napangiti ako ng makita ang asul na dagat at asul na kalangitan. Tirik na tirik ang araw pero napakaraming tao na naglalangoy sa dagat at nakahiga sa puting buhangin.

We'll be staying here for a week. And I want to have fun while staying here.

I want to be happy.

"Let's go, asawa ko."

Napapitlag ako ng hawakan ni Enzo ang bewang ko at hapitin ako papalapit sa kanya.

"Oh my. Oh my. You still look like you're in your honeymoon stage. You look so inlove." Mommy Margarette said while smiling widely.

"Tigilan mo sila, honey. They might feel uncomfortable if you keep on commenting on how sweet they are." Suway ni Dad Juancho dito.

I'm already uncomfortable on how good Enzo act.

Napag-usapan na namin ito kagabi. We should act like a real married couple. And he's good in this that no one will notice what's really going on.

What Enzo now is a complete opposite of who he really is...

Sumakay na kami ng elevator at hawak pa din ni Enzo ang bewang ko. Pumasok kami ng hotel room namin. A room with 10 more rooms inside it.

Damn.

"Isn't this room nice? This looks like a house kaya pwede pa din tayong magsama-sama." Mommy said. Excited. "Others will be here soon.May mga tinatapos lang silang trabaho."

Others? What does it mean?

"I hope magenjoy ka sa vacation na 'to, hija." Dad said.

I smiled. "I will, dad."

"Papasok na kami sa kwarto namin." Enzo said.

Marahan nya akong hinila sa bewang ko at pumasok kami sa isang kwarto. He's being gentle now. I shouldn't have my hopes up because what he's showing are not true but still I just can't help but feel happy.

Ng makapasok kami sa loob ng kwarto ay binitawan na ni Enzo ang bewang ko.

"You should act naturally or else we will get caught." He coldly said without looking at me.

Parang may bumara sa lalamunan ko. "I-I'm sorry."

Hindi nya ako pinansin at pumasok na ng banyo matapos kumuha ng mga damit sa maleta nya. Habang ako ay dumungaw sa bintana at pinagmasdan ang ganda ng Boracay.

I never experience having a vacation. Dad forbid me to go out unless I'm going school. He thinks that it's dangerous for me going out. Baka daw malunod ako kapag pumunta kami sa dagat kaya sa pool lang ako sa bahay nakakalangoy. Isinasama naman kami ni Dad kapag pumupunta sya ng ibang bansa for business but we'll be stuck inside the hotel.
