Payb Takes

Basketball

April 6, 1 am, M's condo:

M *sits on the couch beside R, rests head on his shoulder*

R: *surfs through the channels on the TV*

M: *watches him*

R: *watches each channel he passes for a few seconds before moving on, when he passes a sports channel showing a basketball game he immediately skips it*

M: Di ka talaga mahilig sa basketball noh? I mean you don't watch?

R: Nanonood naman pag yung team na gusto ko.

M: Naglalaro ka din?

R: Yun lang. Di masyado. Mas gusto ko taekwondo at mountain climbing.

M: Aaaahhh... Sabagay.. Di ka nga pala asintado kaya mahihirapan ka sa pag-shoot. *grins*

R: Anong sabi mo? *turns to M, eyebrows raised*

M: Di ba yung duck shooting game sa Fantasy Island wala kang tinamaan sa target? *laughs*

R: Alam mo? Alam mo? Grabe ka sa akin talaga. *pabebe pout* Inaano ka ba ha? Eto papatunayan ko sa'yo na magaling ako umasinta. *whips out phone and opens basketball app*

M: Ano yan? Game? Paano ba yan?

R: Eto yan. *moves closer to M and shows his phone, swipe mo lang yung bola papunta sa ring. Mamaya magiiba yung angle kaya ica-calculate mo lang kung paano ma-shoot yun tapos gagalaw yung ring so moving na yung angle nyan. *focused on giving her instructions*

M: *looks at him in amusement, giggles* Math wizard talaga, may pa-angle pa talaga.. Okay na try ko. Sigurado ka dito ha? Baka mas magaling pa ako sa'yo. *laughs, teasing R*

R: Alam mo? Alam mo? Ikaw. Masakit na, Love ha. Nakakasakit ka na talaga.

M: Joke lang, Love. Kith na kita. *kisses R's lip gently then tops it with a kiss on the tip of his nose*

R: *smiles* Ayan tayo eh. Huling-huli mo kiliti ko. Magtatampo pa ba ako? *kisses M's nose*

M: *giggles* Buti pa game na lang tayo. Pataasan ng score.

R: Sige. Game. Pag nanalo ako may Payb Takes ako. *kilay language*

M: *laughs* Ano pa nga ba? Pag ako nanalo, pitik ka sa ilong. *flicks R's nose*

R: *covers nose* Aray! Bakit may pitik agad?

M: May kiss ka na agad kanina eh.

R: Di counted yun uy.

M: *giggles* Oo nga pala. *kisses R's nose* Ayan bawi na. *grins*

R: Okay. Game na. Una ka.

M: *starts playing game and scores 210 after 3 rounds* Ayan! Beat that. *shows R her score, smiles widely*

R: Galing ng bibi ko ah. Ako naman. *starts playing with full concentration*

At 209 pts, he has just enough time to make one more shot to beat her score. She kisses his cheek which distracts him and he misses the shot.

R: Love, ang daya mo.

M: What? Kiss lang naman kita ah. Ayaw mo? *pouts*

R: Gusto kaya lang nadi-distract ako sa game eh. Talo tuloy ako. *pouts*

M: *grins* Talo ka? Sorry but rules are rules, Love. Lika na dito. *signals him to come closer*

R: Sige na nga. *moves his face closer*

M: *flicks his nose*

R: Ang sakit naman. Bakit ang liit ang ng kamay mo pero ang sakit mamitik? *bites her fingers lightly*

M: Ang daya. Bakit gumaganti?

R: *grins* Sorry. *kisses her fingertips* Next round?

M: Game.

R&M play the next round. R goes first and scores a high score but M still beats him.

R: *grunts in frustration* Bakit ang galing mo? Kunwari ka lang atang di naglalaro.

M: Di talaga ako naglalaro. Sinunod ko lang turo mo. Angles and stuff. *smiles*

R: Ugh. Fine. Ano bang magagawa ko? You won fair and square this time. *offers his nose for punishment*

M: *flicks his nose stronger than last time, his nose turns red*

R: Aray. *covers nose*

M: *giggles* Sorry. Namula na. *pokes R's nose* Next round? Bawi ka. *smiles, picks up phone*

R: *takes the phone from M, sets it on the table* Ayoko na yan. *turns to M with an intense expression* Di ako mananalo dyan. *pulls M by the waist and inches closer* Dun na lang tayo kung saan sigurado akong makaka-shoot. Payb points agad. *kilay language* Game na. *pins M down on the couch and kisses her passionately on the lips* ❤🙈🙊🙉❤💋❤🏀❤💏❤
