My chest heaved up and down as I panted. A playful grin plastered on my lips, I turned my face to my right side looking at Davis. Her mouth agape whilst staring at the ceiling, "You're not dying, are you?" I chuckled.
She gripped the sheet around her before facing me, "Satisfied?"
Natawa ako. Unti-unting sumilay ang ngiti sa labi niya whilst she was trying to calm her panting chest. I hugged her using my left hand as we laughed crazily. "You're the best," I whispered through my giggles.
Tinaasan niya lang ako ng kilay habang nakangiti pa rin, "Ang galing mo pa ring mambola," aniya and I wriggled my head when she pinched my nose really hard.
She's Davis Anderson my best friend. We do have this one-of-a-kind-relationship. Once lang kaming nagkikita in a year and in every one day in that year, we always ends up lying on bed with our naked bodies. I don't know what's with us, but we've get used to this kind of relationship. It was not a joke.
"Hahaha, hindi kaya kita binobola, Im telling you a fact."
"Oo nalang ako," sabi niya at saka umupo sa kama. She pushed herself up until her head reached the headboard, "so, are you going home tonight?"
"Aww, pinapaalis mo na ako?"
"Im not. Saka nasanay lang akong, after we did it umaalis ka na, ng walang paalam."-Davis
"Oy! Nag papaalam kaya ako minsan."
"Minsan lang, pero kadalasan, hindi." She pushed my face as she grinned, "but it's okay. I know how messed up you are, and I know I am messed up too."
"No you're not." I pushed myself up and leaned my head on her shoulder, "you have a great career, long lasting love life and, you actually have it all."
Bumuntong hininga siya, I intertwined our fingers as I smiled at her half heartedly. Sumimangot siya kaya sinundot ko siya sa tagiliran, "I do have everything, pero, Im not happy, why's that?
"Because of me?"
Tumango siya. Hindi nawala ang ngiti sa labi ko. Im blaming myself for making her sad. She's my bestfriend, she really cares for me, but I don't care about myself. I cared so much for everyone but not for myself. Nakasanayan ko na rin siguro ang maging ganun, and Davis hated me for that.
"It's been 6 years Alyssa Dan, when are you going to clear things up and be serious with your life?"-Davis
"Pag kinasal na kayo ni Jc Devera?" Takang tanong ko at saka tumingin sakanya. She sighed, "look, be happy nalang okay? Like sa ginagawa ko, I am happy that you're happy."
"And you're too unfair for that!"-Davis
"Hindi ah!" Sabi ko naman, "Im happy Davis, trust me. Im doing what I wanted to do."
"Make us happy but not yourself."-Davis
Tumango tango ako. I leaned closer and pecked her on the lips. Tinulak niya ako ng bahagya at nag pout, "you need a shower," she said before pushing me out of bed.
"How about we take shower together?"
"Ly, you know I allow this thing in between us for one round only, right?"-Davis
"Why not two?"
"Then next time, you'll ask for three." Said the latter whilst rolling her eyes. I laughed and shook my head.
Pumasok na ako sa banyo at dumeretso sa shower. I am fucked up, and I am living it. Wala naman na kasi akong magagawa if ganito na ako. I finished my degree in Business Management at Ryerson University two years ago, but I haven't started any business yet.
