We Only Part To meet Again

Chapter 8: Most of the time, LOVE doesn't really need words

“Good morning Hon..” Jerome kissed his wife’s forehead. Samantha wakes up but she’s still mad at him so she decided to close her eyes again and pretend to be sleepy.

“Samantha, wake up na.. I cooked breakfast for you..” Jerome said.

Samantha’s POV

Actually, kanina pa ako gising.. Ayoko lang talaga na bumangon dahil nagtatampo pa din ako kay Jerome. And besides, medyo masmaa pa din ang pakiramdam ko.

“Samantha, wake up na.. I cooked breakfast for you..” he said as he touches my face.

“I’m not hungry..” I mumbled.

“Hon, sorry na.. bumangon ka na dyan at kumain ka na.. Hindi pwedeng hindi ka mag bbreakfast. You need to eat para maging okay na ang pakiramdam mo..” Jerome said at talagang pinilit akong bumangon. Ang kulit talaga.

Pero mukha namang bumabawi talaga ngayon ang asawa ko..

Hindi ko naman matiis si Jerome kaya pinansin ko na..

He brought me breakfast in bed. At meron pang kasamang gift box?

Ano naman kaya ito?

Jerome opened the gift box and I was surprised.

“I want you to wear this, Honey.” Jerome said. He gave me a white gold Pear Necklace.

Hinubad nya ang suot kong necklace.. ‘Yung bigay ni Albert.. I forgot to take it off kasi last night sa sama ng pakiramdam ko at inis ko kay Jerome.

“Jerome..” that’s what I could say. Natakot kasi ako baka tanungin ako ni Jerome tungkol sa necklace ko.

“You don’t have to thank me Samantha.. Kulang pa nga ‘yan sa lahat ng pagkukulang ko sa’yo..”

 Jerome said as he put my new necklace on my neck of course.

“And don’t worry, I won’t ask you about that necklace, I can’t blame you kung bumili ka ng jewelry for yourself, kasi ako dapat ang nagbibigay sa’yo nyan pero sa sobrang busy ko di ko nagawa.. I’m sorry hon..” He seriously said.

Haay.. buti na lang at di nagduda si Jerome. Ngayon, hindi ko na kailangan pang itago ang necklace na bigay ni Albert. Hindi naman nya maiisip na kay Albert galing yun eh.

I admit, my husband is not sweet and romantic most of the time, pero whenever he have a chance, pinaparamdam naman nya sa akin na mahal nya ako.

Since today is Sunday, wala naman kaming work pareho, we just stayed in out bedroom. We just cuddle and watch an old film together. Bihira naman kasi kami umalis ng bahay ni Jerome,pag may trabaho lang, kaya nga nung minsan kaming mag mall ni Jerome, nagkataon pa na doon ako nakita ni Albert. Oh well, ayan na naman, naiisip ko na naman si Albert..

Erase… erase..

I was lying on my husband’s chest when he said something as we watch an old film..

“Alam mo hon, na miss ko ang ganito.. yung meron tayong time sa isa’t isa..” Jerome said.

“Ako din, I hope Jacob is still here with us.. para sana mas masaya..” I said without thinking about what Jerome would feel kapag naalala nya ang anak namin.

Nanahimik na lang si Jerome, sabi ko na nga ba, malulungkot na naman sya..

His silence was halt by the moment his phone rung.

Jerome picked up his phone and answered it. I do not know who’s on the other line but I knew that there’s something wrong. By the way Jerome looked at me, alam ko na meron na namang problema.
