Special Chapter

Embrace

I decided to stay committed to runways and modeling. After taking a long, thoughtful break from my career, I realized that it's something I want to pursue for a long time. I've grown to love it. I've come to appreciate everything that comes with it-love, opportunities, attention. I love it even more because it makes me feel like I'm on the same level as Lorcan

Gustong-gusto ko talaga siyang mapantayan, o kung hindi mapantayan, kahit mapalapit lang sa kung anong narating niya. Ayaw kong nasa ibaba niya lang. Gusto kong maging deserving image para sa kaniya. Not that it matters to him. Tanggap niya ako kahit ano ako, o kahit maging sino pa 'ko.

"Thank you for accepting this project for me, Hon..." he said, his voice so sweet and cute.

Nakaupo ako sa mga hita niya, ang dalawang paa ay nasa iisang direksyon. His arms were wrapped around my waist, the other one inside the fabric I'm wearing, ang kaniyang maroon long-sleeved polo. Nasa veranda kami ng aming master's bedroom.

We're now living together, happily married, in our huge but warm sanctuary that will hold every memory we'd share together.

"You know I'll do everything for you too," sabi ko nang may ngiti sa labi. My small hand caressed his cheek. Tinagilid ko ang mukha ko para masiil siya ng matamis at maikling halik.

He opened his eyes slowly after the kiss. His dark gray eyes were like crystals glinting in a cave. Namumungay at mukha siyang bigla na lang nalasing. I chuckled because of his reaction. He never changed at all! Ganito na ganito pa rin ang reaksyon niya tuwing hinahalikan ko siya.

He sighed deeply, like it was his first breath after being drowned in a deep ocean. Being drowned by my love.

"I'm so damn in love with you..." nanghihina niyang sabi. "Until now I can't weigh how much I want you, need you... and love you."

I smiled, my heart racing from the sincerity of his voice, eyes, and words.

He kissed my collarbone, his hand moved a bit inside the dress shirt.

"Can we have our first baby after a year or two?" he then looked at me with his soulful and hopeful eyes.

Tumawa ako. "Ilang beses ko nang sinabi na gusto ko na ring magka-baby sa'yo..."

He licked his lower lip. Halata sa mga mata niyang gusto niya na namang may mangyari sa amin. Katatapos lang namin sa bathtub kanina!

Umiling siya. "Huwag muna ngayon, Seth. Gusto ko tayo munang dalawa..." pagmamakaawa niya.

Mas lalo akong natawa. Akala ko gusto niya nang magka-baby? Nagbago na naman ang isip...

"Napag-iwanan na tayo! May anak na ang mga kaibigan natin..."

"Kahit sunod-sunod pa ang pagbuntis mo basta next year na lang, o sa susunod na taon," aniya, mukhang problemado.

Hindi ako matigil kakatawa sa mga sinasabi niya. Anong sunod-sunod?! Ayaw ko ng maraming anak at alam niya 'yon. Kung maaari, dalawa lang para walang middle child.

"Ayaw mo bang-" ngayong taon? Iyon sana ang sasabihin ko pero umungol siya, tutol agad. Natawa na naman ako. I was only teasing him.

"Please, mahal ko, huwag muna. Akin ka muna..." he pleaded."Sometimes I already want to have babies with you too, but..."
