THE RICH MAN'S POSSESSION (book 1):de Lucca Brothers

26

My heart was beating like its the end of the world, as I enclosed my arms around his waist tighter as I could.  My face was buried on his chest and my nose was filled with his scent.  Isang hikbi ang kumawala sa aking mga labi.  Kasabay niyon ay ang luhang dumaloy mula sa aking mga mata.  This is all I could do while our bodies are pressed together, after how many years.  The longing in my heart was fading, and the love was growing yet again. 

I was like floating in the air with him. Ngunit saglit lang.  Because moments later.

I felt my feet on the ground after a very while. Naramdaman ko ang bahagyang pagluwag ng pagkakahawak nya sa akin.  And the act sent fear and disapproval. Natatakot akong bumitaw sya.  I'm afraid of him letting go of me.  I want him to hold me like he used to do.  And I would hold him back like before.  Tulad ng dati. 

"Please.... " I plead in my whisper.  Another tear fell down my cheek.  I bite my lower lip to stop myself from weeping really hard.  May kung anong bumikig sa aking lalamunan.

Naramdaman ko ang buntong hininga nya. 

I look up to him and stare at his dark shade of eyes.  Doon ko nakita ang aking sarili.  Full of longing and desperation.  Yet,  the terrible reflection of me in his eyes doesn't bother me at all.  I swallowed hard to get rid of that painful thing in my throat.

 

"Don't let go... " Muling hiling ko.  My tears fell again as I beg for him to hold me just like before.   Tighter.  Warmer.  Because being imprisoned in his arms is like heaven again.  A heaven I've been longing for six long years.  And having a taste of it after a long time, makes me want it to last longer.  Or forever.  Kahit wala namang ganoon. 

"Just hold me please.. Kahit sandali nalang.. Then you can go back from being a jerk....but please...yakapin mo muna uli ako." Nag unahan sa pag agos ang aking mga luha.  My heart was being crumple as I beg for his touch. 

"Ssshh... " he hushed.  Idinantay nya ang isang daliri sa aking mga labi upang pigilan ang mga salitang maari kong bitawan.  He then gently wipe away my tears out of my face.  Napapikit ako upang lasapin ang init na hatid ng kanyang mga daliri sa aking balat.  His touch was worth billion.  Tuluyang kumawala sa aking mga labi ang isang hikbi nang gawaran nya ang aking noo ng magaan at masuyong halik.  I stop breathing for a while then.  My heart skip another beat.  I wish I have the Goblin power so I could stop the time from running.  I wish this moment will stay forever.  Pero wala.  Kasi napanood ko lang yun sa pinapanood ni Wenna.  And my life was far from a Korean drama.  Because in reality,  the time keeps on pouring.  It keeps on running.  It was passing.  And indeed.  Time was fleeting.  Dahil ilang segundo lang ang luwalhating iyon.  I release a gentle air as he part his lips away from my forehead.  Nag unahan nang muli sa pagtulo ang aking mga luha. But to my surprise, he kissed away my tears.  I open my eyes again to see his face just inch away from mine. I saw him curve a sincere smile to me.  My heart jump so many times.  And to my shock, I'm alive again. 

"Hush .... I'm here now.." He said those  with sincerity  and promise.  Muli akong napahikbi nang ilapit nya muli ang kanya mukha sa akin.  I knew it then that another heaven is about to happen.  And I waited for him as he close our distance. My longing will now end.  I close my eyes and wait for the actual act of kiss to happen.  My heart beats triple.  I could here my chest being trouble.  And so was his. 

Ilang segundo ang lumipas at imbes na isang matamis na halik ang dapat na dumampi sa aking labi ay bumaling sa kung saan ang aking mukha nang dumampi sa aking pisngi ang isang sampal.  Marahas akong napabalikwas ng bangon.  Para akong binuhusan ng malamig na tubig nang mabungaran ko ang nakakunot noong mukha ni WengWeng.  She was eyeing me with confuse face.
