KABANATA 11: Honeymoon

SLOAN

I slowly opened my eyes when I felt a little cold that I thought was coming from the air conditioner. I sat down on the bed. With one eye closed, I looked around at the place where I was now.

Bumungad sa akin ang modern room na white and sky blue ang pintura. There are indoor plants and aesthetic furniture that are properly placed in the room. There are also minimalist paintings hanging on the wall.

Where am I?

Malinaw kong naalala kung ano'ng nangyari kagabi. I was kidnapped!

Suot ko pa rin ang damit ko kahapon. I tried to look for my handbag, but it's nowhere to be found! I need to call Dominic and tell him what happened!

I combed my hair with my fingers out of frustration and then got off the bed. Tumingin ako sa digital clock na nakapatong sa puting bedside table. It's already 8:04 AM.

Maglalakad na sana ako papunta sa pinto para lumabas ngunit hindi ko na natuloy nang bumukas iyon. Nanlaki ang mata ko nang makita ko kung sino ang niluwa no'n.

"D-Dominic?" I muttered in disbelief.

What is he doing here?

He smiled and slightly lifted the bed tray he was holding with food. "Good morning, wife."

"W-What's happening?" naguguluhang tanong ko. "I thought... I thought you left?"

"Yes, I did. I came back obviously," sabi niya na parang wala lang. Naglakad siya papunta sa kama at saka pinatong doon ang bed tray.

"Why? I mean, sabi mo one week kang mawawala," patuloy ko pa. "Did you know that I was kidnapped last night?! Did you save me and bring me here?"

"Yes and no," he said. "I know that you were kidnapped, and I didn't save you."

"W-What?"

He smirked. "Because I'm the one who kidnapped you, sweetheart."

Natahimik ako dahil sa narinig. Oh, my god! I'm completely confused right now!

"I-I'm confused, Dominic. I don't understand," pag-aamin ko. Why did he kidnap me? Galit ba siya sa 'kin? May ginawa ba 'kong mali?

"Hey, are you overthinking?" tanong niya. Napansin niya siguro ang ekspresyon ko. "Come here." Tinapik niya ang kama kung saan siya nakaupo.

Without a second thought, I sat next to him and then faced him. I didn't see him for only one day, but it seems like it's been a long time since I last saw him.

Kagaya ng lagi kong nararamdaman kapag malapit siya sa akin ay mabilis na naman ang tibok ng puso ko.

"C-Can you explain to me what's going on? Where are we?" I asked with my brow furrowed.

He chuckled. "Nasa isla tayo."

"Isla?"

Tumango siya. "Yes. Private island. We're in Cebu, wife."

"What?!" And I was asleep throughout the whole ride! "A-Ano'ng ginagawa natin dito? What about your company? Walang magma-manage no'n because we're here!" hindi mapakaling dagdag ko.

"Calm down. My company's fine. That will make billions of pesos even without you or me. Besides we have hundreds of employees, ano'ng silbi nila kung hindi nila gagawin ang trabaho nila."

"Y-Yes. I get your point, but—"

"No buts, sweetheart. This is our honeymoon week, we must enjoy this, 'kay?" Kinuha niya ang kutsara na nasa tray at saka kumuha ng pagkain.
