Fuck Romance: Primo Benjamin Valentino

Chapter 15

Mabuti na lang at nasalo nito ang kutsara. He's Primo after all. She rolled her eyes at him.

"Huwag ka ngang magbiro ng ganyan. You're just having baby fever."

Primo sighed. "Maybe."

"If you just take your blind dates seriously---"

"Don't go there again, Nat."

Agad na natikom niya ang bibig sa banta nito. Sinubuan na lang siya nito. Balik sa subuan na para bang walang maliit na commotion na nangyari. When they're done eating. Nag-toothbrush muna sila at mouthwash. Nauna na si Primo dahil ibaba pa nito ang pinagkainan nila. She took a half bath and changed her clothes. Pagbalik ng binata ay 'yon din ang ginawa nito. She did her light make up while waiting for him to dress up.

Sabay na silang bumaba. Primo's hand is on her waist. Nasa sala ang mga bisita. They're having fun while drinking.

"Hi, Nat! Come here, let's drink!" Nakangiting aya ng asawa ni Mayor.

Ngumiti lang siya.

"Oh, she won't drink because she's traumatized on what happened last year." Tukso pa ni Mayor.

She just laughed at it at tinanggap ang alak na inabot ng asawa ni Mayor. She can't say no to her and hindi naman na siya iinom ng marami. However, uminom si Primo. She just let him dahil dito naman sila matutulog.

"You've been together for years! Wala bang planong selyahan na?" Tanong ng vice mayor.

She just chuckled but didn't answer. It feels so wrong kasi if siya ang sasagot. Bahala na si Primo. Primo's hand is caressing her waist until it reaches her tummy. Doon namamahinga ang kamay nito.

"Huwag mong pangunahan si Mr. Valentino. May plano 'yan." Sabi ni Mayor.

Plano. Tsk. Hindi na nga sure if makakapunta pa siya dito next year. Matatapos na rin naman ang set up nila.

Napainom siya ng alak. Bakit biglang pumait? Hindi naman ganoon kapait kanina, ah? She unconsciously gets another drink. Naiba na ang usapan. Buti naman. Nag-uusap na sila sa future plans ni Mayor sa city, Primo is willing to donate.

Hindi na niya nabilang kung pang-ilang baso na. She just found herself laughing with the official's wives. Si Primo naman at paminsan-minsan hinahalik-halikan ang balikat niya.

"I know, matatanda na tayo for this but what if we'll play truth or dare?" The mayor's wife asked.

"Oh, no!" She gasped dramatically. "But I'm in!" She giggled.

"Lasing na ang asawa mo, Primo." An old man teased.

She laughed and leaned on Primo. Her head feels so light. And her mouth wants to talk and talk. Pakiramdam niya wala siyang ginagawang mali. This is what she loves about getting drunk, she'll be the happiest unproblematic person in the whole wide world!

"I'm drunk na daw. Pakasal na naman tayo?" Aya niya.

They cheered except for Primo who just smirked and stole the glass of liquor from her hand.

"You're very drunk, woman."

"Ay, you're a bad groom! You didn't even kiss me last year! Wala akong kiss sa you may now kiss the bride. Anniversary na natin, wala pa rin?" Natatawang reklamo niya. She's just kidding. She's a joker, you know. Ang funny nga, eh! Bakit ba umiikot ang mundo niya?

"Primo, the woman has spoken." Vice mayor teased.

Primo stood up and scooped her.

"I'll just take this drunk woman upstairs." Paalam ni Primo.
