ELLA
"Love, gising na." sabi ko sabay yugyog sa balikat ni Jema.
She did not move. I tried again, still, no movement from her.
Huh, itong si Jema talaga parang mantika kung matulog hehe.
Samantalang ako, ang aga nagising. Nakapag kape at nakaligo na din ako pero siya, tulog pa rin. I poked her neck pero no reaction. Pati na din sa tagiliran niya, ay walang kiliti!
Alam ko na kung ano ang magandang pampagising dito. Sumampa ako sa kama at inilapit ang mukha sa mukha niya.
"Love? Wakey, wakey." I said sabay kiss sa cheek nito.
That did the trick because she moved.
"Hmmmn, antok pa ako lablab." sagot nito sabay talikod sa akin.
Tapos nagtalukbong uli siya ng comforter namin. Lamigin nga talaga si Jema.
Nagtataka lang ako dito kasi ang aga niya natulog kagabi, alas otso pa lang ay gusto niya nang i-off ang ilaw sa kuarto namin pero nakiusap ako ng additional 30 minutes.
I think we went to bed around 830, which is way too early for me. Jema however told me that's already late for her, haha. Different ang sleep routine namin ni Love but I can adjust naman.
Tiklop ka naman pala kay mare.
Going back to Jema, she is awake but still sleepy daw. Akala ko ba pag maaga natutulog ay maaga din nagigising?
Honestly, the first few days of us living together, ang dami ko talagang natutuklasan about my partner. Nakakatuwa. It's kinda amusing for me.
They say that you will likely know the person more when you live together. I am now seeing all of her different sides, every single day.
Natural lang ito as I've only seen Jema from her own environment. It is possible that she has only shown her best behavior. Vice versa, ako din naman.
"Eh Love, you have to get up na po. It's almost 8 o'clock. The day is half over." sabi ko sabay hila sa comforter niya.
Biglang lumitaw ang legs niya kaya naman nalamigan ito. Salubong ang kilay na humarap ito sa akin.
"Ella De Jesus, bakit ba nang iistorbo ka ng tulog? Can't you see that I'm still sleepy?" inis na tanong niya.
"We're going on a road trip baby, remember?" I answered.
Parang nag isip pa siya sa sinabi ko.
"Hello? The lights are on but nobody's home!" sabi ko.
Unan ang sumapol sa mukha ko.
"Aray naman! Bakit ka nananakit?" tanong ko.
"Huwag mo nga ako ma-English English Ella De Jesus, ang aga aga." sabi niya.
"Maaga pa ba ang 8 o'clock sayo?" I asked.
"What? Alas otso na pala bakit hindi mo sinabi agad at bakit hindi mo ako ginising? My gosh, nakakahiya kila Tita. Baka akalain nila eh feeling bisita ako dito." mabilis na sabi niya.
She got out of the bed and went straight to the bathroom while talking. Blah, blah, blah. Naiwan akong nakatunganga.
"Love, I'll wait for you downstairs." sigaw ko na lang sa kaya bago bumaba.
Hindi siya sumagot so I don't know if she heard me. I went straight to the kitchen and starts getting eggs, bacon, mushrooms, pork and beans. I put two slices of bread in the toaster.
"Ma'am Ella, ako na po dyan." sabi ng kasambahay namin.
"No, thanks. Ako na lang po." sagot ko.
"Sige po pala ma'am. Tawagin niyo lang po ako sa labas kung may kailangan kayo." sabi nito.
