Always, My Jade

The Rule (14)

She was staring lovingly at the person lying in her bed. Still can't believe na Althea's in her room, sleeping in her bed and covered by her own comforter.

Ngayon niya lang napansin ang lamig ng aircon, naka on na pala. Sobrang pagod ko na ba na hindi ko man lang siya napansin, sabi niya sa sarili.

She was about to lie down when she noticed a letter on the side table of her bed.

My Jade,

Sorry for not answering your messages and calls last night. I'm overwhelmed knowing that you like me. That alone made me complete. I felt my home with you, Jade. I felt that the first time I saw you.

I'm not good at words, so I hope you'd give me the chance to show how you mean so much to me.

Sorry to sleepover in your bed, Ama said you're not coming so for someone who misses someone so much, I intrude with Ama's consent. But I still need to leave early tomorrow morning.

I don't want to force myself to you, I know you're still mad cause you're ignoring my calls and texts. Stupid me because I left my phone in my condo this morning. I know no excuse could tone down your anger.

Again, I'm sorry.
I just really miss you, your bed can help me fall asleep.
At least I could have a free hug...from your pillow😊

Your Resident,
Althea

Jade found herself smiling while reading Althea's letter.
She kissed the letter and said to herself "Althea's first love letter for me". Love letter talaga ha.

She climbed up the bed and slowly reached to Althea's side, facing her, she traces Althea's face, she loves doing it. Nakabalot ng kumot si Althea at nakayakap sa unan niya. Naisip niya ang sinabi nito sa sulat niya na miss na niya ito, napangiti siya saka naisip ano kaya kung siya yong unan.

She then slowly pulled off the pillow from Althea's arms and placed herself in between instead. Dahan dahan para hindi magising, then she put Althea's arm in her waist
And her hand on Althea's face. They are now inches away from each other.
She traces her lips gently, then she whispered "soft kissable lips."

Biglang nag mulat si Althea at nagulat dahil sa sobrang lapit nila ni Jade kaya napa atras, at sa sobrang atras ay bumagsak sa kama.

"Althea!" Sigaw ni Jade sabay sindi ng side lamp niya.

"S-sorry Jade, akala ko dka uuwi eh. Ahmm, uwi na ako saglit ah ah, yong gamit ko." Tarantang sagot niya hindi alintana pagkahulog niya.

"Hey, Althea anong masakit sayo?" tanong ni Jade habang papalapit sa sa gilid ng kama na nakaluhod at humintong napaupo habang nagaalalang nakatingin kay Althea.

Napansin naman ni Althea ang suot ni Jade at natulala siya. Biglang nag init ang katawan niya sa nakita, naka undies lang ang kaharap niya. napa lunok at napatingin sa suot niyang pantaas, loose shirt and nothing underneath. Napayuko bigla at mukhang nahiya.

Napansin naman yon ni Jade at napangiti sabay nag Indian seat.

"Come here" tawag niya.

Hindi pa rin makagalaw si Althea.

"I said come here" medyo seryoso ng boses na nakaangat na ang isang kamay para abutin ni Althea

Tumayo si Althea at humakbang pabalik ng kama, ang cute niyang tingnan with Jade's pajama ang shirt.

Nang makalapit kay Jade.

"Saan masakit"

"Ha?"
