Payb Takes Book 3

Mrs. Sungit

July 5, 9:30pm:

M arrives at home and half-drags herself to the bedroom, dropping her bags on the floor and slipping her feet out of her shoes, not bothering to pick them up. She is totally exhausted, energy drained and muscles aching from her rigorous workout in the gym. She thanks God for gym shower rooms because she has no strength left in her body to take a shower before going to bedz.

Once in the bedroom, she crawls to the bed and sleeps.

July 6, 12:30am:

Hours later, R comes home. He and M trained and left the gym together but she went home ahead of him because he had to meet with his closest showbiz friends for dinner.

"Anyare?" He mutters as he finds M's bags, shoes and socks on the floor.

He follows the trail of clutter to the bedroom, picking the items up along the way and sees M sleeping soundly on the bed.

"Kawawa naman. Sobrang pagod." He sighs.

He places her things on the couch in their bedroom and carefully makes his way towards her.

She is sleeping on her side so he sits on the side of the bed and gently strokes her hair. He leans in to kiss her temple, causing the bed to move.

M grunts as she wakes up. "Ano ba? Ang likot."

"Hi, Love. I'm home." R smiles and nuzzles on her neck.

"Ugh! Looove... Go away. Leave me alone." She whines, covering her face with her forearm.

"Halaaah... Ang sungit. Love, galit ka ba? Nagpaalam naman ako di ba? Pumayag ka naman?"

"Oo na. Oo na. Wag ka na makulit. Alis. Ang ingay." M painfully groans.

R frowns when he hears how his wife seems to be in pain.

"Mahal ko, are you okay?" He asks and touches her arm lightly.

"Don't touch me." She snarls.

"Masakit?" He frowns.

M pouts and starts sobbing. "Oo. Masakit lahat. Sobra. Ayoko na." She cries.

"Halaaah... Kawawa naman ang misis ko. Wag mo na ako sungitan ha? I want to help you." He whispers.

She sniffles and nods her head. "Sorry."

"Okay lang." He smiles.

"Ayoko ko na talaga, Love. Sobrang hirap. Sobrang sakit. Ayoko na ng movie. Dito na lang ako sa bahay. Bibigyan na lang kita ng maraming magaganda at matatalinong anak." She pouts.

"Uy! Alam mong gusto ko yan. Dito na lang din ako kasama niyo ng mga anak natin." He grins.

"Hindi pwede."

"Bakit?"

"Ano kakainin ng mga anak natin kung di ka na din magta-trabaho?"

"Oo nga naman. Eh kung di ka na magta-trabaho at di mo na gagawin yung movie at gagawin ko pa din, hahanap sila ng kapalit mo. May kissing scenes at may bed scenes. Okay lang sa'yo?" He asks.

"No way! Asan na yung gym? Maggi-gym na ako ngayon!" She glares at R. "Teka... Bakit? Gusto mo ba yun?"

"Wala naman akong choice, Love. Trabaho lang." He smiles smugly and rubs his goatee.
