Payb Takes Book 3

Spring Forth

June 26, 8:00am:

I jump out of bed with a big smile on my face, my heart pumping with excitement. I immediately check my phone and there it is, your message to me.

Looooove!!! See you later! Safe flight! I loooove youuuu! 😘😘😘

I can't help but grin giddily then break into straight up laughter when I read it. You know, I can hear your animated shrieks from here.

Oh God! I love you so much, Love, and I can never explain how or why.

I dial your number and true enough your excited shrills and giggles greet me. "Good morning, asawa ko." You say in your musical voice that always makes me smile.

Actually, everything about you makes me smile. I love you.

"Good morning, Mrs. Faulkerson. How's HongKong?"

"Lonely without you." You say and I can almost see that adorable little pout on your face.

Ugh! I want to kiss you right now.

"Here is lonelier without you too, Love."

"So? Halika na. Get in that shower, get on that flight and get here." You giggle.

I love the sound of your laughter. Hearing it feels like having my insides touched by fluttery feathers.

"Eto na! See you later, Love! I love you so much!"

"I love you more, Love. Oo nga pala. Your luggage is all packed kumpleto na yun. Sinadya kong di puno para sa mga mapapamili dito. If you need to bring more stuff wag na masyado madami ha? Yung kasya lang sa backpack mo. Wear something light and comfortable for travel. Don't eat too much on the flight, may dinner tayo mamaya. Stay in touch ha? Baka maligaw ka." You tell me.

"Love naman. Hindi na ako bata. Alam ko na yun pero thank you so much for always thinking of me and taking care of me. I love you. Nasabi ko na yun sa'yo di ba?" I chuckle.

You giggle. "Yes. Palagi and I love you more and more. Forever and always. Sige na baka ma-late ka pa. See you. Bye."

"Bye, Love. See youuuu!"

Just like that, the lonely night I spent in our home didn't matter anymore. I am springing forth to the time when I finally see you again and hold you in my arms.

2:30pm:

I get in the van, hoping to find you waiting there but you're not. During the drive to the hotel, I try to call you but you do not answer. I ask everyone else where you are but they can't tell me where you are.

When I finally reach the hotel room, I try to call you again before getting inside. Do you know how hard it is to go inside another empty room without you, Love? I've been in HongKong for almost an hour and I still have not seen you or heard from you.

You still did not answer that call and I'm beginning to think you're not as excited for our reunion as I am.

I swipe the keycard and open the door. I pull my luggage in and slump on the first chair I reach then text you to find out where you are at least.

Love, nasaan ka ba?

I hear a beep.

I look up. The room is empty.

I send another message.

Menggay ko, please sumagot ka naman.

I hear another beep.

My heart starts racing. I get up and look around the room for your phone. I find it on the bedside table's drawer with a note.

You get a prize if you find me in the next five minutes. Come and get it.

Mrs. F

I grin. You and little games I would love to play anytime.

I open the closet and find a robe with a note.

I can't be the only one naked, Mister.

I immediately strip down and wear the robe and slippers. I am sure where to find you now.

I go straight to the bathroom but still find it empty.

"Asan na yun?" I mutter and is about to go back when I notice a piece of paper in front of the mirror by the sink.

Tough luck? Try next door.

"Ano ba yan? Pinaghubad mo ako tsaka mo ako palalabasin? Pambihira naman, Nicomaine." I scratch the back of my head and take a deep breath as I walk to the door hoping there is no in the hallway.

I turn the knob and open the door just a crack when you suddenly appear in that darn sexy little black dress and push  me back inside the room.

"Ang tagal mo naman." You snarl with fiery eyes and launch forward to kiss me hard on the lips as you kick the door shut.

You grab my nape and pull me closer as you entwine your fingers through my hair. You slip my tongue in my mouth and eagerly push against mine. I kiss you back more fervidly. Our tongues duel as we suck and nibble hungrily. Our moans, sighs and the smacking of out lips fill the quiet room.

I lift you up and you wrap your legs around my waist as you cradle my stubbled face in your soft hands letting them tickle your palm adding to the sensations of that intimate moment. You press your entire body against mine and I pull you even closer, willing our skin to touch as much as we could at that very second.

"I miss you so much." You whispered on my lips when we breathlessly let go after minutes of intense kissing.

"I miss you too. I love this dress." I whisper back and kiss you deeply again. "I love you, Mrs. Faulkerson."

"I love you more, Mr. Faulkerson." You smile. "How was your flight?"

"Huh?" I ask feeling too hot and dazed with the rush of pleasure and desire in my body to even think of the answer.

"Okay. Let's not talk about that now." You grin and kiss me again as I unzip your dress.

And once again, we get lost of in our own world. The one where there's just you and me and the moment of having each other springing forth to the heights of bliss and embracing the promises of our love meant to last for eternity. 💛🍃
