F I F T Y - F I V E
















I blinked my eyes open, the morning light slipping through the curtains. Wala akong suot. The chill on my skin made it all too clear. Slowly, the memories of last night flooded back. Faye and I, the heat between us, the way she held me. My face warmed at the thought.

Turning my head, I saw her lying next to me, her hair messy but beautiful, her lips slightly parted in sleep. Ang ganda talaga ng Misis ko I thought, feeling a soft smile tug at my lips.

Carefully, I slipped out of bed, wrapping a blanket around myself. I knelt beside her, brushing her hair away from her face.

"Wifey," I whispered softly, my lips just a breath away from her ear.

She stirred, but didn't fully wake up. Antok pa rin ang Misis ko, sabagay napaka ingay niya kagabi. I leaned closer.

"Gising na," I murmured, trying to hold back a laugh. "Baka hanapin na nila tayo." Dito na kasi na isipan nila Lola na mag stay sila Faye sa mansion, since nag karoon ng pag sasaya kagabi.

Faye groaned softly, her eyes fluttering open.

"It's too early, Hun..." she muttered, tugging me back toward her. I laughed, feeling her warmth pull me in again.

"Five minutes," I whispered, giving in, just for a little longer.

Pag bigyan na lang natin, dahil minsan lang naman siya pumayag maging bottom.

"I had the weirdest dream," saad ko sa kanya.

"Oh? About what?" She raised an eyebrow, eyes still half-closed.

Cute.

I bit my lip, feeling my heart skip a beat. "You... proposed to me," I admitted quietly, watching her expression change.

Agad naman nag init ang mukha ko ng makita ko na ngumiti siya sa akin.

"Did I?" Her eyes fully opened now, a smile tugging at her lips.

"Yeah," I said with a soft laugh, "right after last night... it felt so real." Kinikilig tuloy ako.

Faye chuckled and pulled me closer.

"Maybe it's a sign," she said softly.

Agad ko naman siyang tiningnan na nag tataka.

"A sign of what?" Tanong ko sa kanya.

"A sign that you shouldn't go to the States for your internship. Dito ka na lang... with me" sagot niya sa akin while her hand brushed through my hair and smiled, her voice gentle and ang expensive talaga niya pag nag tatagalog.

"I know it's your decision," she added quietly, her voice steady, "and I'll support you no matter what. Even if you go to America, I'll be here... waiting. Besides," she smirked, "I have plenty of money to visit you whenever I want."

Agad ko naman siyang dinampian ng halik sa labi niya at niyakap siya ng mahigpit.

Habang nakaupo ako sa gilid ng kama, narinig ko ang pag bukas ng pinto ng banyo. Pag lingon ko, Misis ko lang pala, bagong ligo, basa pa ang buhok at balot lang ng tuwalya. Natatawa pa ako kung paano siya mag lakad papalapit sa akin.

I raised an eyebrow, amused. "Okay ka lang ba?" I asked, a teasing smile playing on my lips.

Tumingin siya sa akin, may konting iritasyon pero namumula na rin ang pisngi.

"I can barely walk, Ae," nahihiyang saad niya sa akin.

"Really? Last night was that intense?" I teased, watching as she struggled to sit down beside me.
