A Great Love. ( Short Story)

Kiss

When i have a chance to run from his room ay hindi ko na pinalagpas.

Buti nalang talaga at lumabas sya. Nakiusap akong gumawa sya ng paraan. He sighed in defeat. Nag-aya syang mag billiar kaya nawala ang mga lalaki sa hallway. They were playing chess there. We put long table in a big hallway so we can use the space. That it turned out hard to escape from his room. Magkatapat lang pala ang room namin.

I sleep all day!  Rest day is so good! Nawala na din ang pagkahilo ko at sakit ng katawan. Kung hindi dahil sa tunog ng alarm ko ay hindi ako magigising. Fast 3 pm na pala. Over sleep!

Nagugutom ako.

I went to the kitchen and found the others having their merienda. Vito was cooking pasta. I didn't know he knows how to cooked, daig nya pa ko.

Ayoko ng isipin ang nangyari kagabi,  lalo akong naiilang. I remembered half of the scenario, the other part was blurred. Not sure kung totoo bang nangyari o panaginip ko lang. I don't want to confirmed!

Nag-hanap ako ng makakain sa fridge.  Oh, my! Ngayon ko lang naalala wala na nga pala kong mga stocks. I need to shop! Pano na...

" Yesh!  Halika na dito at mag merienda. Vito is cooking spaghetti! Your favorite." Sarap busalan ng bibig ni pat!  Napakadaldal. Vito's wide smile showed that he's satisfied to what he heard. 

I don't have a choice, wala akong pag-kain kaya pag tatiyagaan ko nalang ang luto ng lalaki nato. And beside, ang tagal ko ng hindi nakakakain ng spaghetti. Masarap sana... Hehe

He served the food and i gladly get my own serving.

Ba't pa ako mahihiya,  sila din naman kakain ng luto niya.

" I cooked it for you. " he said and seated beside me. I was chewing the pasta when he said that at muntik nakong mabulunan. He immediately handed me a glass of water and drunk it.

" Thanks" tipid kong sagot.

Silence fell. Mukang natahimik din sila sa tinuran ni vito. He was vocal about his feelings and it feels uncomfortable for me.

I just want to end my merienda and leave out of this kitchen.

" Yesh,  marco is here. Nasa labas sya." tawag ni janet. I just nodded to her. Right in time!

Inubos ko ang pagkain at tumayo na. He stopped me--- Kumunot ang noo ko. Bigla nyang pinunasan ang labi ko, gamit ang hinlalaking daliri niya. I stiffened to his move.

" Yan, okay na. " sabay subo nya ng pagkain na parang wala lang. I swallowed to clear my thought and walked outside... Not minding how my heart beating so fast. And how warmth his touched to my lips.

Nasa labas nga si marco with his coat. He's probably having a meeting or something. " Hon... " He gets closer and kissed my cheeks. " Dad asked me to attend his meeting in tagaytay. " Sabay himas sa braso ko. " And you know, i can't say no to him."

" Gabi?... At bakit ngayon kalang aalis masyado kang gagabihin sa daan. " nag aalala kong sabi.

" I'm fine hon,  i just drop by here, to let you know i won't be here in 3 days. I'm sorry--- Babawi ako, i promised. " Hmmm

" It's okay hon,  i understand. Just do your best and make us proud. Basta update mo nalang ako ng nangyayari sayo dun, okay? " i wholeheartedly smile.

" Of course hon,  i will,  I'm so lucky to have you in my life." sabay halik sa labi ko. It felt different. I just shrugged it off. ' Dont compare!'

" Sige na umalis kana, lalo kang gagabihin nyan,   please text or call me when you arrived in tagaytay. Be safe okay?" He hugged me once more and bid a goodbye. Hinintay kong makalayo ang sasakyan nya... At kahit wala na ay nakatanaw pa din ako. I signed in sadness.
