I did not go with Ray. Nagpahatid ako sa bahay namin around 3 in the morning. Even Mom was shocked to see me back home pero mas nagulat ako nang makita si Dad roon. I was so mad I wanted to punch him, dala na rin siguro ng nainom ko.
"Jhie—akala ko hindi ka uuwi—,"
"Kaya nandito 'yan?" Baling ko kay Dad.
"Jhie!" Mom yelled.
Naikuyom ko ang kamao ko. Nanginginig ako. Seeing him burn my heart, how can I forgive this person?
My head is aching. Instead of having an argument with my parents, minabuti kong lumabas ng bahay.
"Jhie, bumalik ka rito!" I did not look back. Tumakbo lamang ako palayo roon. I did not bother using my car. Mas lalo kong naiisip ngayon na kay Dad iyon.
Nang medyo nakalayo na ako ay tumigil na ako sa pagtakbo. Naglakad na lamang ako hanggang sa makarating ako sa bahay ni Tienn. Wala sa sariling nagring ako ng doorbell. I looked at my phone and saw it's 3:40 in the morning. Is she awake?
Nagbblur na ang paningin ko but I managed to ring the doorbell endlessly until someone opened the gate.
The cute marshmallow opened the door sleepily. Kinukusot pa nito ang halos pikit pang mga mata.
"Bakit—," she stopped. Lalo niyang kinusot ang mga mata niya na tila hindi makapaniwalang narito ako.
"Jhie? Aww!" Pinitik ko ang noo niya.
"Don't open the gate easily. Can't you at least ask who's ringing the doorbell before opening the gate? What if some dangerous jerk is ringing this doorbell at 4 in the morning?" Inis na sabi ko, trying to maintain my balance.
She closed the gate. Wth?
"Who's there? Are you some dangerous jerk ringing my *yawns* doorbell at 4 in the morning?" Nasapo ko ang noo ko. This marshmallow!
"This is Jhie. Open the gate, I need water." Mabilis naman niyang binuksan ang gate at hinila ako sa loob.
"ATE GRASYA 'YUNG GATE, SALAMAT!" napatalon ako nang sumigaw siya.
"Hey, gising pa ba siya?" I asked.
"Yeah, nanonood siya ng bold nang mga ganitong time." Napaawang ang labi ko sa sinabi niya.
"Let's go!" Tila nawala ang antok niya't hinila na ako patungo sa kitchen nila.
"Ano'ng water need mo? Cold? Hot?" She asked.
"Anything will do." I said. I really just need water.
She then handed me a glass of water na agad kong ininom.
"Is this—,"
"Pinaghalo ko 'yung malamig and mainit." She said and flashed me her smile.
"What are you doing here pala? Naubusan kayo ng water at home?" Curious na tanong niya.
"I... received your messages. Uhm... Sorry." Nawala ang ngiti niya sa sinabi ko.
"Ahh 'yun ba? I should be the one na nagsosorry. I sent you messages kasi busy ka pala. I just thought maybe you want to accompany me. I studied sa coffee shop ng Mommy mo." She said.
This girl is getting more and more conyo... And why am I not getting irritated with it?
"Sorry for not accompanying you." I said. Natigilan siya sa sinabi ko nang ilang segundo bago naglumikot ang mga mata.
"S-so bakit ka nga nandito? At this hour?" She got her lips forming a smile again.
"To say sorry."
"Ha? Ayos lang 'yon ano ka ba—,"
"I'm sorry." I sounded so genuine. I don't know. I just felt so guilty for not replying to her.
"O-okay lang talaga, promise! Gusto mo pang water?" I nodded at her question.
After finishing 3 glasses of water, we became awkward. None of us tried to speak. I was just sitting on one of their bar stools as she tapped her fingertips on the countertop.
"Uhm..." She sounds so unsure of what to say.
"May I... Sleep here?" I asked. Her eyes widened.
"Kahit sa sofa. I'll be fine."
"Ha? Ano'ng sofa? Marami kaming kwarto rito! Pumili ka!" Natatarantang sabi niya.
"What if I choose yours?" I saw her gulped.
"Edi sa guest room ako." Sabi nito na ikinailing ko.
"Silly." Pinitik kong muli ang noo niya.
"Aray, nakakailan ka na ah!"
"Oh is the little creature mad?"
"Ano'ng little creature ka riyan? Ano ako, dwende?" Sinamaan niya ako ng tingin na lalong ikinatawa ko. She looks so cute getting mad at me.
Epekto ba 'to ng kalasingan? She's looking more and more attractive in my eyes when in fact... She's really not my type.
I found my own hand grabbing her waist and pulling her closer to me.
"J-Jhie..." She gulped. Damn it, she's making me thirsty again.
Hinawi ko ang ilang hibla ng buhok na humaharang sa mukha niya. Shit, she really looks so beautiful. For the past few days, she just looked like a kid to me. When did she start looking this attractive?
Her lips were like a magnet. They're captivating and they did not fail on getting my lips on them. Damn, I missed these soft sweet lips. It's good to taste them again. It felt like I've been longing for this sweet kiss for the past few days and now, I'm feeling satisfied.
I nibbled her lower lip with my tongue like a knock to let my tongue enter her mouth as I held her face to deepen the kiss.
"Jhie..." She moans in between our kisses.
I'm losing it. The way she says my name sounds so addicting. I wanna hear it more.
I gently pulled her up to let her sit on the countertop without breaking the kiss. My body's now in between her legs and my hands gently caresses her thighs.
"Hhmm..." I squeezed her thigh nang manggigil ako roon at kinagat ang pang-ibabang labi niya.
I gently showered the side of her lips, her chin, and her jaw with kisses as my hand slowly went inside her top, caressing her tummy to her back. I moved my hand upwards, making sure my fingers send her shivers. I was about to unclasp her bra when I realized there was nothing to unclasp. She's not wearing a fvcking bra underneath. Bakit hindi ko iyon napansin? Ganoon ba ako kahilo?
"Fvck, you're not wearing bra."
"I was... Hhmm, I was sleeping, Jhie! I don't wear bras to sleep. Ahh!" Nakagat ko ang tainga niya when I heard that.
"Tienn... Are you ready for the next lesson?"
