Theodore

AINE 19

"Why are you here?" I asked when a very handsome person entered my office. He is wearing his attractive smile and disheveled hair. I am proud of my man. He looks so fine he even looks like a model.

Nakasimangot siya saken habang paupo sa sofa.

"I am asking you why you're here." I am not angry. I am just surprised na biglang sumulpot tong gwapong to sa opisina ko na walang pasabi.

I woke up this morning alone in my bed. Umalis siya ng maaga na walang pasabi but he left a note in the kitchen malapit sa pagkain na inihanda niya. I smiled when I remember his message.

"I left early today babe. I have an early flight to Cebu remember. I will be back this afternoon but I can't tell you what time. I just hope walang problema para hindi ma delay ang flight. I love you so much. Please eat. – Baby"

"Ouch love! That stung!" Maarteng sabi niya sabay tayo at nagpapaawang lumapit sakin.

"What?" Sinakyan ko na rin ang ka dramahan ng gwapong to.

"I am not happy, baby. Didn't you read the note? Hindi mo man lang ba ako na miss?" I saw that familiar pain in his eyes. Maingat niya akong hinawakan at hinalikan ako sa noo. God, I am so inlove with this person. Bumilis ang tibok ng puso.

I looked up to him and found him intently staring at me. "Please tell me you missed me."

Hindi lang kita na miss Theo. Mahal rin kita.

Pumikit ako at ng muli ko siyang tingnan ay ngumiti ako sa kanya. That's when he released that heavy sigh.

"I love you very much." Bulong ko sa kanya. He stilled.

He blinked for a couple of times before he could speak again. I saw his eyes watered and his face reddened. "Damn, baby love. You just made me the happiest man alive today." He kissed me on my lips, which I answered wholeheartedly.

"You got me worried, baby."

"Why?"

He eyed me. I was about to laugh when he hugged me tighter.

"Don't be like that again." His eyes were pleading.

"Like what?" He gave me a peck on my lips before speaking.

"Like you did not want to see me."

"I didn't mean like that."

"I know, but please don't do that again. Pwede ba yun?" Isang masuyong haplos sa akong mukha ang ginawa niya. I smiled.

"Yes baby. Hindi na po mauulit. Promise." I kissed him on his check and hugged him tighter.
