Chapter 18 - Babysitting

Napahikab si Monique nang magising  siya at maupo mula sa pagkakatulog niya. Agad naman siyang napatingin sa kaliwa't-kanan niya. Nasa kama na siya ng kwarto nila ni Nick. She smiled. After they made love last night on the carpet, she felt asleep at mukhang dinala nga siya ng asawa  niya nang 'di niya nalalaman papunta sa kwarto nila para doon matulog.

She stood up from the bed to get some clothes because she was still naked behind the sheets that covered her. She wears her usual clothes when she's only staying in the house—a loose shirt and shorts.

Bumaba naman agad siya at pumunta agad sa kusina. Tama nga hinala niya. She saw Nick cooking for their breakfast. Nakaboxers lang ito saka sando.

"Morning." she greeted kaya naman napahinto ito sa pagluluto at napatingin sa kanya.

Her husband smiled at her. "Morning, love. Just wait a minute, malapit na 'tong maluto."

Nilapitan naman niya ito at niyakap sa likod. She buried her face on Nick's hard back. She could even smell the aftershave scent from her husband. "Morning hug." she said.

Nick chuckled and faced her. He hugged her again. "Okay, morning hug. Baby, are you fine? Do you feel sore? Alam kong masakit pa yang katawan mo dahil kagabi. You should rest." he said while caressing her hair.

She lifted her head up and looked at him. Napapaisip tuloy siya na ang hirap pala kapag matangkad ang asawa mo, masakit sa leeg. "I'll be fine. Don't worry." she assured him kahit medyo aaminin niyang masakit ang katawan niya dahil sa nangyari sa kanila kagabi. Especially her back.

Nick gave her a quick kiss on the lips. "Okay. You're beautiful as always, you know that?"

She giggled. "Bolero. Saka, hindi ba may trabaho tayong dalawa ngayon?" she asked. She knew she was already late for work pero tatawagan na lang niya ang department nila mamaya na maghahalf-day muna siya ngayon.

"No need to worry. Kumuha ako ng one day leave sa trabaho at ikaw naman, I asked Kurt to have you a leave also. I know you still feel sore after we made love last night and so that we can make love all day right now." he winked at her.

She laughed hard. "Oh my god, you maniac."

"You're my wife anyway and I know, you'll enjoy it too." by that, he kissed her deeply. His kisses were getting longer and deeper. He lifted her up and wrapped her legs around his waist, still not breaking the kiss.

"Oh my god. Oliver, Kacey, close your eyes!"

Napahinto silang dalawa nang may nagsalita. Bumaba agad si Monique mula sa asawa niya.

"N-Noreen?" Nick was confused to see her younger sister inside the house, Noreen Torres. He was 8 years older than her. May kasa-kasama rin itong dalawang bata, a girl who looked like six years old and a boy who looked five.

"Kuya naman, pwede sa kwarto na lang? Ang mga bata!" her sister whined. Monique could really felt her face was now burning red. She was really embarrassed. If these people didn't come in, she knew, they would make out in the kitchen.

Nick scowled. "What are you doing here? You're invading our privacy, sis. Pumasok ka kaagad sa bahay, ni hindi ka man lang kumatok."

Nagkibit-balikat lang ito. "The door is open so I guess I can come in." patay-malisya nitong sagot.

"Tita, c-can we open our e-eyes now?" sabi 'nung batang lalakeng kasama nito.

Napatingin naman si Noreen dito and patted his head."Yes, Oliver. Both of you can open your eyes now." Pagkatapos ay inimulat na ng dalawang bata ang mga mata nito.
