Secretly Married

Secret XIV

"Tch. Ano pang silbi ng pagsagot ko kung sa huli, pagiisipan mo din lang ako ng masama."

I pushed him aside and hurried to my closet to get something I can changed into. Then, I entered his room and walked directly to the bathroom. I need a bath to cool myself! Now that I saw him, I'm boiling with anger once again.

"Uuuuugh! Nakakainis talaga! Ang kapal kapal ng mukha nya! Uuuuuuuuurrrrrrrggggghh!"

Haaaaaay! Parang ayoko na lumabas dito! Ayoko sya makita! Aish! Kaya ko to! Alangan namang dito lang ako sa banyo? Papasok din naman yun dito e!

"Breathe in, breathe out! Haaaaaaa! Kaya mo to Cliff! Wag mo na lang syang pansinin! Okay!"

Lumabas na ako ng banyo at dumiretso sa kama para humiga. Tutal, bukas din naman ang T.V, makikinuod na lang din ako. Buti naman hindi na ako kinausap nito. Nakakaintindi rin naman pala ang isang to.

"Alezxandrei."

Hindi pala. Binabawi ko na lahat ng sinabi ko.

"Alezxandrei."

Tumagilid na lang ako at tumalikod sa kanya. Ayokong makita sya!

"Can you please face me? This won't take long."

I turned and faced him. I won't show any expression!

"What do you need?"

"Like what I've told you, I only stay here during weekends. And, weekend's over so, I'll be back at our Company's Dorm. I'll leave early in the morning, so, I don't have much time to tell you this tomorrow. Here's the duplicate keys of all the doors in this house. Take care of these keys. Since, you don't want to have someone to accompany you here, I bet you'll be fine on your own. That's all."

"I have to tell you something too."
"Spill it."

"I'm moving out."

"What?!"

"I'm moving out of this house. I'll be staying at my friend's house."

"Why?"

"I want to. I don't need your approval. I'm leaving whether you like it or not. I just want you to know, so that you won't be shocked."

I turned sideways and closed my eyes.

"Hey, you can't just do that! What if, Mom and Dad, visit us?"

"They'll call us. We can just make up reasons."

"What kind of reasons? Tell me."

"Something like, I'm out with friends while you're busy for your career. Something like that. Or we are out to do something."

"They'll be sad if we do that!"

"Then, we can meet them up. Just make sure that you arrived first before them so it'll look like we're together."

"What if they paid a surprise visit during weekends?"

"Aaaaaaagh! Fine! I'll be home during weekends just like you. I'll be here from Friday Night up to Monday Morning."

"Fine. You win. Just don't let our family know. I don't want them to think that we have a problem. Just because you were staying with your guy friend."

"Aaaaaghhh! I don't want to argue with you! Babae ang mga kaibigan ko! At pwede ba, wag mo nga akong pagiisipan ng ganan! Dahil kahit na hindi ko gusto ang set-up natin ngayon, hindi ako nakipagdate sa kahit kanino! Wag mo 'kong itutulad sayo!"

"What?"

"You're shocked that I know? Oh please! I can clearly hear a flirty voice from the background of your voice mail's. You should thank me. I kept your image good to my parents. Alam mo ba na gustong gusto nilang marinig kung ano ang sinasabi mo sa message? Pero lagi ko ding sinasabi na 'Mom! He sent it to me, so I'm the only one allowed to hear it!' So please! Please lang! Wag mong ipasa sakin ang mga gawain mo!"

"I don't understand!"

"Really? Oooh! Of course, you don't remember! A sinner in the right mind won't admit his sin."

"I don't get you! Its not what you think it is!"

"Oh, please! I'm not thinking about those kind of things! I simply don't care! Don't bother yourself in explaining. I don't need and I don't want any of your explanations."

After I said those words, I let my back face him. Ugggh! I hate myself! Di ko na dapat sinabi ang mga bagay na yon! Gising pa kaya sya? Gusto ko magsorry! Kahit na hindi pa sya nagsosorry! Okay lang! Gusto ko magsorry!

"Mingyu?"

"............."

"Mingyu?"

"............."

"Aish!" Humarap ako sa kanya, at pinagsisisihan ko yon! Di na dapat ako humarap! Pano ba naman! Pagkaharap na pagkaharap ko sa kanya, nakaharap na agad sya sakin at nakatingin ng diretso sa mga mata ko! Tatalikod na sana ako pero nahawakan nya ako agad at hinigit palapit sa kanya tapos niyakap nya ako! Sheeems! Pero kailangan ko na talaga magsorry!

"I'm so sorry, Drie"

"Sorry, Mingyu"

Sabay naming sabi sa isa't isa.

"I'm so sorry, Drei! Hindi ko dapat sinabi ang mga yun sayo! Sorry! Hindi ko alam kung bakit ko nasabi yon! Sorry talaga!"

Habang sinasabi nya ang mga salitang yon, mas humihigpit ang yakap nya sakin. Para bang ayaw nya kong pakawalan.

"Sorry din, Mingyu! Di ko dapat sinabi yon sayo! Mali talaga ako! Wala naman Kong sapat na ebidensya pero sinabi ko padin. Tsaka, nakaconnect nga pala yung CCTV dito sa mga magulang mo. Sorry. Ang careless ko!"

"Its fine. But it will be better if you hug me back!"

With that, I hugged him back. I don't know how it happened but his hug calmed my nerves. It makes me feel relaxed. I didn't even noticed that I already fell asleep.

"Good Night, My wife. Sleep tight."

All I remembered is that he kissed me 'Good Night' on my for head and planted little kisses on my nose, and his little message for me, that night.

"Happy 5th Anniversary, wife."
