~ BRIELLE~
The beaming lights of the sun that creeps through the crevices of the close blinds, the morning breeze that caresses my skin, and the smell of the ocean that tickles my nose woke me up in my slumber.
What a beautiful- Aray! Masakit.
Sinubukan kong gumalaw at umiwas sa sinag ng araw upang hindi direktang nakatutok sa aking mga mata. Masakit kayang masinagan ng araw ang iyong mata lalo na kapag kagigising mo sa umaga.
"Morning." Agad akong napatingin sa bagong dating na ngayo'y prenteng nakasandal sa pintuan ng kwarto.
"This better be good," I whispered before glancing back at Alexander with a blinding smile. "Good morning, Alexander. What can I do for you?" I formally acclaimed it as if I was taking someone's order at the restaurant.
"Good to know that you're energetic as usual," he said before moving closer to the bed. "You okay?" He asked worriedly.
I glared at him. " Rule of the goddess #104. Asking if I'm okay after sex was never okay. It defeats the purpose of passion and steaminess of the atmosphere."
"Okay then, I'm sorry my goddess, I will keep that in mind," he said sarcastically. " Anyway, I just want to know if you're good to go or if you want to stay in for a while. We've been sailing for hours now."
"Hours, meaning?"
"10 hours."
"Seriously?" How long have I been asleep? Mabuti na lang hindi kami inanod ng dagat. If ever, naging floating corpse na ang beauty ko.
"So?"
"So what?" I asked.
"Do you want to go back to the resort or eat first then go back later?"
"Eat? May pagkain dito?"
"Yes. This yatch is fully equipped with food and amenities like the hotels."
"So may butler?"
"Butler? Why would there be a butler?"
"For services. Alangan namang walang magsisilbi sa guest. Teka, if nanadito tayo sa gitna ng dagat for ten hours, that means the captain's with us the whole night, right?"
Oh god, nakakahiya kung kasama namin siya the whole time. Ang dami pa namang nagyaring kababalaghan kagabi. My gosh, nakakahiya!
"No. The yacht's on autopilot. And if thing go bad, I know how to maneuver this vehicle to safety."
"Edi wow." But that's good. At least private pa rin ang nangyari kagabi. "So, can I have breakfast na?" I change the topic.
"Sure. It's in the-"
He stopped midway his sentence when he saw both my hands raised towards his direction. both my arms again griningly. "Up."
Alexander didn't respond. He just clicked his tongue, but still carried me as I asked for.
"Pasalamat ka..."
"What?Sige tuloy mo." I dared him while holding his arms ready to pull it if he says the wrong word.
"Never mind."
Sa may deck area niya ako dinala. May nakahanda nang pagkain at lamesa kung saan kami kakain. Mukhang pinaghandaan talaga niya ito.
"A for aefort, Alexander. Ikaw rin ba nagluto?"
"There's only two of us here, and your cooking skills can't pass a human taste buds, so you can guess."
