Deliberate Moves

Chapter 27

What do you mean you are? Where are you going? Tanong niya sa akin.

I'm going home, tomorrow and I might not see you the whole day. Sabi ko sa kanya at humiga siya at niyakap ako ulit.

Crazy, I thought you're leaving and never coming back. Sabi niya.

Oa ka lang. Sleep already. I'm so sleepy na. Sabi ko at pumikit na.

Maliwanag na ng magising ako at wala na rin si Kiefer sa tabi ko kaya tumayo ako at nagsuot ng robe. It's already 9 am, umalis na siguro si Kiefer? I went inside the toilet to wash my face and brush my teeth. I was trying to remember where I left my phone nang maalala ko na nabasag ko nga pala yun kagabi. Kailangan ko pa pala bumili ng phone. Lumabas ako ng cr and was surprised to see Kiefer here. Nilapitan niya ako at hinalikan.

Good morning babe, you woke up just in time for breakfast. Sabi niya habang nakayakap sa akin.

Good morning. What did you cook? Tanong ko.

Not as delicious as your dishes but Gab told me it's okay. Sabi niya.

Let's have breakfast then. Sabi ko at lumabas na kami ng kwarto.

Coffee, tea or milk? Tanong niya.

Coffee please. Sabi ko pero pagtingin ko sa table wala namang food.

I thought you cooked breakfast? Tanong ko.

I did. Sabi niya at hinila ako papuntang balcony.

Wow. Sabi ko.

I know. Sit down. Sabi niya at nilagyan ako ng coffee sa mug.

This is nice, thank you. Sabi ko.

Eat na. Sabi niya. Okay naman yung niluto niya longganisa sunny side up na nascrambled na dahil nabasag yung pula at saka fried rice na walang timpla.

How was it? Tanong niya.

Good, masarap. Sabi ko.

Now I know I wasn't dreaming last night when you told me you love me. Sabi niya.

Huh? I didn't get you. Sabi ko.

Kasi I know that the food is not masarap but you're saying it is because you love me. Sabi niya kaya natawa ako.

Oo na. Sabi ko at nginitian niya ako.

Finish your food so you can shower and go to you parent's house and come back tonight. Sabi niya.

I might not come back tonight. Sabi ko.

You'll never know. Last night you told me you'll go home but ended up sleeping here. So we'll see na lang. Just let me know where you are so I won't worry. Sabi niya habang hawak yung kamay ko.

I will after I buy a new phone. Sabi ko.

I already asked Matt to get you a new one. He'll be back before you leave. Sabi niya.

You didn't have to. Sabi ko.

It's okay babe. Kain ng kain. Sabi niya kaya kumain na ako.

Hinihintay ko si Kuya sa condo ko ng tumawag si Kiefer.

Yes? Tanong ko.

I miss you. Sabi niya.

Kakahatid mo lang sa akin you miss me ka na agad dyan? Tanong ko.

Because I do. What are you doing? Tanong niya.
