525 OSS: Love Beyond Cameras

6: Just a Jealous Guy

Kathryn's

"Nak, nandiyan na si DJ sa baba." Mama told me when she entered my room.

"Tell him to go inside na lang Ma."

"Hintayin ka na lang daw niya sa baba." Sagot naman ni Mama as she fixed my comforter.

"Eh Ma, medyo matagal pa ako. He will just get bored." I said habang kinakabit ang isa kong hikaw.

Kaagad naman bumaba si Mama to call DJ.

Maya-maya pa at bumukas na ang pintuan.

"Tangiii!!!" Malambing kong sabi as I ran towards him.

But he crossed his arms and went straight to my bed. He sat down, his arms crossed still. Nakabusangot pa ang mukha.

"Bad trip ka Love?" I asked as I made my way towards him.

"Inaantok ka ba? You can sleep on my bed naman habang nagwa-wait ka." I told him.

"Magaling ba sila sumayaw?" He asked at umiwas ng tungin.

"What?" Tanong ko dahil I was caught of guard.

"What do you mean magaling sumayaw?"

Bumuntong hininga siya ng napakalakas.

"Ewan." He said.

Humiga siya sa kama at nagtalukbong ng unan.

"Uyyy Bali. What's wrong?" Natatawa kong tanong.

He rubbed my pillow on his face bago niya ito tanggalin. Umupo siya ulit.

Aba't hindi mapakali 'to.

I tried to think of reasons kung bakit siya ganiyan at bakit niya natanong 'yung tanong niya kanina eh I attended Ate Kimi's bridal shower lang naman yesterday night.

Oh my god.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA TANGIIII!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!" Tawa ko ng malakas.

Tinaasan naman niya ako ng kilay.

"Ang cute mo Love! Come here nga Tangi." I called him as I opened my arms.

Kaagad naman siyang yumakap sa akin.

"Ang annoying mo." Pagba-baby talk niya as he placed a quick kiss on my neck.

"Ikaw, ang cute mo naman." I answered as I gave a him a kiss on his nose.

"So ano nga? Magaling ba sila sumayaw? Mukha bang pandesal abs nila?" Naiinis niyang tanong.

"Tangiiii!!! HAHAHAGGAHAHAHHA what the hell???!!!"

Bigla naman siyang umalis sa yakap ko.

"Bakit hindi ka makasagot? Magaling sila no?" He said.

I tried to contain my laughter pero hindi kaya.

"Kapag ako umattend ng Bachelor's Party---"

"O sige, what will you do?" Mataray kong tanong na siya naman kinatawa niya.

"Why Tangi? Magseselos ka?" Pang-aasar niya.

"Hindi, mapipitik ko sila, lalo na ikaw." At inirapan ko siya.

Tumayo ako at dumitetso sa vanity table ko.

"Hala siya, galit na." Pang-aasar niya ulit at lumapit pa sa akin.

"You're so annoying. Dapat naghintay ka na lang downstairs." Irap ko pa ulit.

"Hey, 'yung mata mo, baka mapunta na sa outer space sa kakaikot." He mockingly said.

"O talaga?" Naiinis kong sabi.

"Hala! Galit na nga." Natatawa niyang sabi.

Hindi ako umiimik. Bahala siya diyan.

"Dapat ako 'yung galit eh! Daya mo naman!" Sabi niya pa.

"I was dreaming of the past
And my heart was beating fast
I began to lose control
I began to lose control," He suddenly sang.

Tumingin ako sa salamin and our eyes met.

"I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that, I made you cry
I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy," He continued to sing.

His arms were wrapped around me and I smiled.

"I'm just a jealous guy." He told me as he turned my stool around to face him.

"Aww Tangi!!!" I hugged him at kaagad naman niya rin akong niyakap.

He hugged me until nakatayo na pala ako and my feet were already above the floor.

"You don't have to be jealous naman Love. Yes, magaling silang sumayaw. Yes, may abs sila. But I'll still choose you no matter what." I mumbled habang binabaon ang mukha ko sa balikat niya.

"Tangi, you smell so good." Sabi ko pa.

He just chuckled as he put me down and said, "I love you Tangiii. Sobra."

I looked at him and he was smiling.

"Kilig ka my Tangi?" Paglalambing ko.

"Kulit mo." Sabi niya as he gave me a swift kiss on my lips.

"Kilig ka lang eh, namumula ears m---"

He kissed me again but this time, it was longer.

"Ang daldal mo Love." Natatawa niyang sabi.

He then tucked a strand of hair behind my ear and placed a kiss on my forehead.

"Hm, I love you too." I whispered as I felt his lips linger.

"Jusko kayong dalawa!" Biglang sigaw ni Mama kaya napabitaw kaming dalawa.

"Halik kayo nang halik, male-late kayo niyan sa Bataan!" She hysterically said.

"At sino gumulo ng kama mo Kathryn?! Kakaayos ko lang niyan." Dagdag niya pa.

"Chill lang Ta Min, nakakabawas ng ganda 'yan." DJ joked.

"Oo nga Ma. You'll look older." I teased.

"Hay nako, ewan ko sa inyong dalawa. Tama na ang landian, mag-ayos ka muna Kathryn," She opened my door, "At 'yang lipstick mo, kalat." And she finally went out.

Napatingin naman ako kay Daniel na nakatingin na sa lips ko.

"Kalat nga Bali." Natatawa niyang sabi habang pinupunasan ito.

"Ikaw kasi eh." Paninisi ko.

"Lab mo naman." Pagpapa-cute niya.

Lab ko nga naman.
