Payb Takes Book 2 (COMPLETED)

Maine One And Only

February 16, 11pm:

Mike U: Meng, sure ka ba dito? *asks M as she wears an oversized hoodie jacket, huge rimmed eye glasses and surgical mask inside the van* Medyo marami nang nakakaalam na nandito si Alden. Siguradong may nag-aabang kung pupunta ka. Baka may makakilala sa'yo diyan. Madumog ka pa.

M: Sure ako dito, Kuya Mike. Di na ako makikilala nito tsaka tapos na ang visiting hours, wala nang tao sa hospital.

Mike: Samahan ka na lang kaya namin. Ikaw lang talaga ang bababa? Jusko baka madukot ka diyan.

M: Lalo akong makikilala pag kasama pa kayo. *sends text, reads response* Ayan na. Pinapunta na ni Daddy si Kuya Eric. Siya na lang kasama ko. Atleast pag siya kasama ko. Iisipin lang ng mga madadaanan namin na yaya ako ni RJ at magdadala lang ng pagkain. Asan na nga pala yung mga inorder natin kanina?

MU: Yaya talaga ha? Kinarir mo na yan. *laughs* Eto na yung pagkain. *gets bags from the back of the van* Ang dami mong inorder nga puro pa favorite ni Tisoy eh bawal naman sa kanya. Maiinggit lang yun.

M: That's the point. *grins* Para madala na siya at mag-ingat.

MU: Ikaw talaga. Ang bully mo din ano?

M: That's not bullying. That's called teaching a lesson. *winks* May binili din naman ako sa kanya ah. Etong popsicles at flowers para sa kanya yan.

MU: Wow. May pa-flowers.

M: Oo. Sobra pa yan dun sa pa-Dangwa niya sa condo nung Valentine's Day. *laughs* Joke lang. Pinabili ko yan talaga. Oh ayan na si Kuya Eric. *opens the door after KE knocked*

MU: Oh ingat ka ha? Paano ka nga pala uuwi?

KE: Ako na po maghahatid kay Ma'am Meng kung uuwi po siya.

MU: Okay. Sige. Ingat.

KE: *takes bags and bouquet from M* Ma'am may iilang fans po si Sir sa labas. Yuko ka lang po at bilisan na lang natin.

M: Talaga? *sighs* Okay. Go. Kebs lang yan. Thank you, Kuya.

M: Good evening, Dad. *smiles and hugs DB*

DB: Oh, nak. Kumusta?

M: Okay po ako. Sobrang okay. Konting sipon lang kaya nag-mask na lang ulit.

DB: O sige, nak. Iwan ko muna kayo para makapag-kape. Ikaw na muna bahala sa alaga natin.

M: Opo, Dad. Ako na po bahala sa pasaway na to. *laughs*

R: *waves and smiles*

M: Hello, Love. May dala akong food at pa-Get Well Soon bouquet. *smiles, sits on the bed beside R* Di pwede sa'yo yang food pero atleast makikita at maamoy mo sila habang umiinom ng malamig na gatas at kumakain ng Popsicles. *smirks*

R: *frowns*

M: Joke lang. *giggles*

R: *furrows at M and looks at her intently*

M: Galit ka sa akin? Sige. Magalit ka. Aalis na lang ako. Pumili ka na lang dun sa labas ng gusto mong pumalit sa akin dito. Dami nila dun. Nakapila. *rolls eyes, starts to get up*

R: *pulls her hand,making her sit back down and hugs her tight, clinging to her and leaning his cheek on her back*

M: *sighs, hugs R back* Pagaling ka na kasi. Dapat ngayon priority mo na yang health mo ha? *faces the frowning R and cradles his face in her hands* Masakit pa ba?

R: *nods his head*

M: Di ka pa makapagsalita?

R: *nods his head*

M: Kawawa naman ang mahal ko. *sighs* Pero atleast now we don't have to worry about the infection and more complications, you just need to focus on getting better. Okay?

R: *nods his head*

M: Halika. Higa ka muna diyan. *helps R lay back down on the bed* Anong gusto mo? Water? Gutom ka na ba? Inaantok? *takes R's hand and starts massaging it* Gusto mo ng kwento? Kanta? *waits for R's response but he just watches her with a little smile on his face*

R: *raises M's hand to his cheek and gently rubs the back of her hand on his skin, sheepish eyes glued on M's*

M: Aaah... Gusto mo ng lambing?

R: *grins*

M: Gusto mo talaga ng lambing?

R: *face lights up and nods his head*

M: Gusto mo ng hug and kiss ganoon?

R: *pabebe pout, nods his head*

M: Ayun lang pala eh. *leans forward and hugs R then kisses his forehead* Okay na?

R: *shakes his head then signals for one more*

M: Ay hihirit pa. *giggles* Sige. Turo mo kung saan banda masakit. Iki-kiss ko. *smiles*

R: *grins giddily, points to a spot on his neck below his jaw*

M: *smiles, softly kisses the spot* Saan pa?

R: *points to his the spots under his ears, pouts*

M: *smiles, slowly leans forward and plants feathery kisses on each ear* Meron pa ba?

R: *nods his head, smirks, draws a line along his jaw*

M: Totoo to ha?

R: *gives M a sheepish look and nods his head*

M: Halaaah... Kunwari napaka-inosente ng itsura mo noh? *chuckles and rolls her eyes then leans forward to trail soft fluttery kisses along his jawline*

R: *closes his eyes and moans contentedly with every touch of M's lips to his skin*

M: *looks up and finds R smiling with his eyes closed after she presses the last kiss just below his right ear, whispers* Ayan. Okay na. May masakit pa ba?

R: *opens his eyes, nods his head*

M: Saan?

R: *puckers up his lips and points to it, grins*

M: Ayan na nga bang sinasabi ko eh. *giggles* Eh bawal. *grins* Bawal muna, Love.

R: *pouts*

M: Pagaling ka muna. Pag magaling ka na. Kahit ilan pa yan, iki-kiss kita ng walang tigil. *smiles*

R: *sticks out his pinky finger*

M: *laughs* Sigurista? Sige. Promise. *smiles and hooks her pinky finger with his* Okay. Tama na muna ang usapang kiss. Yung seryoso, what else do you need para gumaan ang pakiramdam mo, Love? Di ako doctor or nurse pero andito ako to take care of you and do whatever it takes to help you feel better. May gusto ka bang kunin ko or ipatawag para puntahan ka?

R: *shakes his head, takes M's hand and places it on his chest, mouths "Thank you", then moves to make room for M beside him*

M: *smiles and carefully lays beside R as he wraps his arms around her, rests her head on his arm and snuggles on his chest as they lay side by side facing each other* Sigurado ka ba na wala ka ng kailangan?

R: *nods his head and pulls M closer, smiles*

M: Okay. Andito lang ako. Promise. In sickness and in health, hindi kita pababayaan, hindi kita iiwanan at mamahalin kita ng buong katapatan.

R: *sighs dreamily, adoringly stares deep into M's eyes as he leans his forehead on her*

M: *smiles and sighs* I know. I love you more. *closes her eyes as listens to R's heartbeat speak of his love that he can't say in words at the moment* ❤
