Mafia Boss 1: Saved By Him

18: Yeovil

I thought I was just dreaming that she's in my room last night. But when I opened my eyes thirty minutes ago, I saw her sleeping beside me. Her arm were wrapped on my waist.

Suddenly my heart flipped at the thought of she took care of me last night when I didn't feel good.

I ran my fingers to her hair and touched her face with the back of my hand. She moved a bit at isiniksik niya ang ulo niya sa dibdib ko. I smiled out of the blue.

Maybe she was dreaming that I am a pillow.

I'm supposed to get out of this bed but my body don't cooperate. It feels like, something deep down of me says I need to stay with this woman who's hugging me right now.

And so I did. It took me another thirty minutes watching her sleep. This was the second time I've slept with her. Pero katulad noong una, she doesn't let go of me. This time I don't feel like taking her arm away and leave her while she's still in a deep sleep.

That's when I noticed my shirt. As far as I can remember I was wearing my white polo pero sa nakikita ko ngayon, I'm wearing my own black shirt. Was she the one who changed it? Hindi lang iyon pati ang slacks na suot ko kahapon na ngayon ay sweatpants na. Napa-ngiti nalang ulit ako. Hindi ko alam kung anong iisipin ko, a lot of things playing in my head. But I am happy because she did all of these for me.

"Jyeo..."she said almost a whisper but her eyes were still closed. Is she dreaming of me? "...okay ka na ba?" Oh, I guess not. She slowly opened her eyes and looked up.

Jyeo? Shortcut for J Yeovil? It's my first time to hear that from her. No one calls me Jyeo afterall, siya lang. And it's nice though.

I cleared my throat before answering. "Yeah, much better." Thank you.

She smiled with her sleepy eyes. Nilagay naman niya ang kamay niya sa noo, next sa pisngi at leeg ko na ikana-kunot naman ng noo ko. What was that for?

"Mabuti naman at wala ka ng lagnat." She said in a sexy husky voice at pipikit-pikit pa ang mga mata. Inaantok pa siguro. "What time is it?" She asked.

"It's still early Watson, just sleep." 4 AM pa lang. I just woke up early. She nodded, lumayo siya ng kaunti.

"Matutulog muna ako dito ulit," she whispered and fell asleep.

I didn't know what pushed me at mas lalong inilapit siya sa katawan ko, hugging her too. It feels right. So right that I couldn't remember who I am at this moment. Pati lahat ng bagay na pina-ngako ko sa sarili ko ay nakalimutan ko na. I just broke the rule I've made for myself because of her. How can she do this to me?

Bago pa sumakit ang ulo ko sa kakaisip, I just closed my eyes again, trying to get back to sleep. My whole body aches. Pero ilang minuto na ang nakakalipas ay hindi ako makatulog, so I decided to get off from bed. Mabigat sa kalooban kong iwan ulit siya habang tulog, but I need to. So I slowly removed her arm at inayos ang kumot na bumabalot sa kanya.

I went straight to the bathroom and took a cold bath, changed into shirt and jeans and went outside.

Inaasahan ko nang gising na ang apat pero hindi ko sila nakita sa sala.

I remembered what I did yesterday, naiinis ako kaya naghamon akong kalabanin silang apat. Fuck you, Kinsley.

"Good morning Mr. Grimes." Bati sa akin ng mga tauhang nasa bahay pati na rin ang mga katulong. I just gave them a nod.

"Coffee Mr. Grimes?" tanong sa akin ng isa sa mga maids. Tumango ulit ako.

Naglakad ako papuntang pool area at doon muna nag stay. Thinking what's the real score between Kinsley and Watson. I just can't help it. Pero malalaman ko rin naman yon soon. Whatever it is I shouldn't care right? But damn these thoughts, hindi ako mapakaling malaman iyon. I'm not going to stop until I already know.
