TRADING INNOCENCE ✔️

Chapter Twenty One

ANG sarap palang mag-mahal. 'Yan ang lagi kong sinasabi sa sarili ko sa tuwing tinitignan ko ang babaeng mahal ko. I thought to myself that I should've tried falling in love when I was younger. I should've felt what puppy love was. I should've experienced how sweet a first kiss was with my first crush.

But now, I'm already experiencing all of that with the right person in a right time. Hindi ko na kailangan pang maranasan ang puppy love o kung gaano nakakakilig ang first kiss dahil wala nang mas tatamis pa sa mga halik na pinagsasaluhan namin ni Riley araw-araw. And the real love we have for each other will never be just a puppy love anymore.

"Doctor, hindi ka pa ba magbibihis?" Tanong ni Riley na pinagtaka ko.

"Huh? For what?"

"Pinaalam ka ni Jupiter sa'kin. May boys night out daw kayo ngayon." Aniya.

"Hindi naman ako sumasama sa boys night out nila." Sagot ko at yumakap sa bewang niya, "Remember what you told me? I should never drink without you, right?"

"Yeah, I told you that. Pero syempre kailangan mo naman lumabas-labas kahit pa-minsan. Baka sabihin ng mga pinsan mo eh pinagbabawalan kita."

I chuckled and kissed her lips softly, "They know that I don't party, hunny. I don't drink and I don't go to clubs. Besides, bakit pa ko sasama sa pagsasaya nila kung dito sa tabi mo eh sobrang saya na?"

"Aw. You never failed making me happy, Mico." Aniya at hinilig ang ulo sa dibdib ko, "For the past months we are together, you always makes me happy."

"I'll do anything for my sweetheart." I answered.

It's been months ever since I met Riley. Everything still felt surreal to me. I still get excited whenever I wake up in the morning and her face is the first thing I see. I still get shy whenever she kisses me in public or whenever we go PDA with my family.

I always thought that this is the life I've been wanting. Sinabi ko sa sarili ko noon na tila may kulang pa sa buhay ko. At mula nang pasukin ni Riley ang mundo ko eh wala nang mas kukuntento pa sakin sa tuwing kasama ko siya. This is the life I wanted. My life with her is the best thing I could ever have.

"Why don't we go on a date tomorrow?" I asked her.

"Saan naman?"

"Kung saan mo gusto." Sagot ko, "Kahit saan naman kasi tayo magpunta masaya ako dahil kasama kita."

"Oh my god Mico! Ang cheesy mo na ha!" Tili niya na kinatawa ko. I pulled her inside our room and pushed her in the bed before kissing her lips sweetly.

"I love you my Riley. This heart will never get tired of loving you." I whispered as I stared at her beautiful face. I held her hand and brought it to my lips for a kiss.

"Mico..." She answered and smiled, "Promise me na ako lang. Ako lang ang mamahalin mo."

"I promise." I smiled, "Kahit naman ilang babae pa ang iharap sakin, ikaw pa din ang maganda sa mata ko. You're my first, remember? And you'll always be my last, baby."

"Nakuha ko lang virginity mo gumaganyan ka na ha." Aniya na kinatawa ko. Nahiga naman ako sa tabi niya.

"May effect pala sa tao ang sex?" Sagot ko.

"Ano naman?"

"Look, I'm starting to say sweet things to you. Parang kusa na lang lumalabas yun sa bibig ko dahil gusto kong makitang kinikilig ka."

"Kahit naman wala kang sabihin sakin eh kinikilig pa din ako sayo." Aniya at tumawa, "Oh wait, I have to try something with your cock."

"Ha?" Nagtatakang tanong ko nang tumayo siya at may kinuha sa side table. Pagbalik niya sakin ay may hawak na siyang ruler, "Anong gagawin mo dyan?"
