My whole body was lying above Martin's nakedness. His hard chest became my pillow, and his arms tightly enveloped me in a hug, which I truly appreciated. I felt love, especially when he snuggled on me more while our legs entangled. I can hear the sound of his heartbeat, which actually matches mine. Rumbling, seems to burst out of my ribcage at any moment.
His fingertips crawled into my hips, pulling me very closely to his body. "Aren't your enormous logs ever asleep?" I tease Martin, who just barks a laugh at my remark. Kanina pa kasi kumakatok ngunit alam niyang pagod ako at may konsiderasyon ang gobernador kaya hindi ginagambal ang pagpapahinga ko.
Tinalunton ng dalawang daliri kong nag-ala paa ang braso nitong mabalahibo na para bang naglalakbay sa pinong buhok, makinis at makisig niyang braso. His olive skin looks so fine against my pale complexion. I like his warm tone combined with mine every time we collide, skin to skin, in and out.
Gosh, I sound so pervy, but Governor Martin is the only man who can bring this out of me.
Panaka naka ang halik ng labi niya sa aking noo at buhok. Pumikit ako para damhin ang bawat dampi sa ulo ko. No one has ever made efforts like what Martin did during those days when I was blocking his calls and deleting his texts. He sent one of his men to deliver food and letters to me.
Ayaw ko itong makita o maka-usap sa lumipas ng mga araw ngunit gumawa talaga ng paraan para magpapansin kahit malayo man siya sa akin sinusuyo ako! My locker was bombed with his love letters!
Not the typical love letter, If someone might ask me. Ang nilalaman ng bawat sulat ay mga pangangamusta, habilin sa pang araw-araw kung ginagawa, tanong sa akin patungkol sa kung anong nararamdaman ko sa pisikal o mga bagay na aking iniisip, at kunting pahagip ng mga salitang pagmamahal sakin.
I kind of like the idea that Martin was an old-fashioned man with a deep sense of love. One by one, I read those letters he sent. Touched by each word he had chosen to communicate with me, even though I was not writing him back.
I securely placed each letter in a glass box and hid them under my bed. I didn't tell him either that the meal preps he's been sending me for lunch and snacks are delicious and tasteful. I am savoring all of it alone because I don't like sharing what makes me happy.
Nagagalit lamang ako sa kaniya dahil unang pagkakataon kong matrato ng ganito. Hindi ko kasi matanggap ang binibigay niyang pagpapahalaga. Mahirap unawain, pero hindi ako sanay sa mga pinapakita't pinaparamdam nito.
My stomach growls. Imbes na gustuhin kong lamunin ng lupa sa medyo pagkapahiya ay kiniskis ko na lamang ang aking pisngi sa kaniyang matipunong dibdib. Panira ang gutom sa mga momento ko! He shifted and aligned his body lower so we could face each other.
I'm such a midget for a giant like him.
Fanculo!
"Tell me, where do you want to eat?" Martin's thick eyebrows met when I poked his dimple. He bit my index finger after he caught me poking at his plump lips. I'm not actually paying attention to what he is saying because his beautiful manly features are definitely distracting me, but I can feel his eagerness to know.
Kunwaring nag-isip kahit wala na naman akong balak kumain. Ayaw ko kasing tumaba sa maraming mga dahilan.
"Don't ever think of escaping dinner. You have to replenish the energy you lost on me. Alam ko ang istriktong diet mo, Arsinoe. Pero pwede mo paring kainin lahat, into a smaller portion of each dish." I rolled my eyes at him.
As if he knew what I was planning in my mind. Inunahan ba naman ako! I was taken aback for a couple of seconds until it made me realize that he indeed knew me well.
"Lola is always checking my waist line. Hindi pwede yang sinasabi mo. I'll just grab some oat bars." Na-iboses ko ang nasa isipan.
To balance everything, I am not eating my dinner until breakfast; that's what I did when he sent me food. Besides, I had my cheat day yesterday, so I don't want to eat more.
Nadala ako ng pangyayaring isang beses lamang nangyari, kung saan bumigat ang timbang at nadagdagan ang sukat sa aking bewang ay pinagfasting ako sa mansyon. When they allowed me to eat, they would let me only have water, plain crackers that are tasteless, and 2 pieces of almonds or any nuts.
Para raw magtanda ako at hindi pala kain.
"And why would she do that?! Ang tamang pagkain ay mainam sa katawan basta hindi sobra-sobra. Gaining weight is normal, Arsinoe. Don't be afraid. There's a lot of ways to reduce, like workouts at home or in the gym, sports, or even just walking. We can also do that together if you want. You don't have to deprive yourself from eating."
