A kiss will do
"Do you know her?" Troi's cousin asked Tyron.
Lumingon ito sa mga pinsan at tumango.
"I do. Why is she here?" bumalik sa akin ang tingin niya at mayamaya ay lumipat iyon sa katabi ko.
"And with you, Troi?" the way he asked that feels like he cannot believe that I'm with Troi.
He sound offended.
My husband decided to put an end to his silence. Tumayo ito.
"I don't know how did you know my wife, Tyron," Troi's voice is enraged but precise.
Humarap ito sa kapatid. Gumagalaw ang panga dahil sa pagpipigil.
“She's someone important to me," Tyron said using his baritone voice.
My husband scoffed in disbelief.
"Shut up," Troi said, sounding in the bridge of his patience.
Humawak ako sa dulo ng coat niya. Bahagyang tumagilid ang ulo niya dahil doon. Madiin na pumikit ang mga mata. Ang kamao ay kumuyom. I heard his deep sigh.
“If this is one of your stunt to pull up about your stupid rivalry addiction, then stop it. I wouldn't let you ruin my plans," Troi said seriously.
The happy go lucky one is gone. Isang seryoso at tila galit na Troi ang narito. Handang makipag-away.
Tyron's brows furrowed. Hindi pagyayabang ang nakabalatay na ekspresyon sa mukha niya kundi pagtataka.
"How could..." he glanced at me and then to his cousins and then to Troi again.
"How could she be your wife?" hindi makapaniwalang tanong nito.
"Anything is possible, Tyron. And why the hell do you care? Are you going to get married now so you can beat me again?" Troi said.
The way he cocked his brow is like he's trying to annoy his brother. The tension between them is quite uncomfortable now.
"Shut up! I don't care about you getting married. I care about..." he looks at me. "Her. I care about the woman beside you," he continued.
Nagsimula na akong magtaka sa kung bakit parang kilalang-kilala ako ni Tyron? At bakit parang ngayon lang ako nito nakita at takang-taka siya na mag-asawa kami ng kapatid niya? Wala ba siya sa kasal namin?
Napatayo ako nang maglakad palapit sa gawi ko si Tyron. Troi looks so alarmed. Ang isa sa mga pinsan nila, hinarang na rin si Tyron.
"The hell is your problem, dude? Let Troi and his wife have their peace," anito.
Tyron dodge his hand.
"I am not going to make a scene here," he explained.
Bumaling ito sa akin.
"Rosalie, how come... fuck..." hindi nito natuloy ang sasabihin nang lumapit pa ang isang pinsan. "Bitawan mo ako..." naiinis na sambit nito bago bumaling uli sa akin.
His eyes are full of questions. Nalulunod na ako roon pero naramdaman ko ang marahang paghawak sa siko ko ni Troi. Nabaling sa kaniya ang tingin ko. Nakangiti siya sa akin at nag-aalala ang mga mata.
"I'm sorry about my brother. He hates me that's why..." he explained.
"The fuck? It's not like that Rosalie," I heard Tyron muttered. Nakikusap na ang mata noon na maniwala ako sa kaniya.
Hindi ko alam kung sinong babalingan ko.
"I was just wondering how did you end up marrying him when I am the one who courts you?"
