Sa totoo lang, hindi naman kalayuan ang edad naming dalawa ni Jared. He’s 24 and I’m 25. We’re about the same height. Me being slightly taller than him at 5’10”.
“So I guess I’ll see you tomorrow at work Jared.”, sabi ko nang marating namin ang parking lot ng office building namin. It so happened that he also left his car kaya sumabay na ito sa akin sa paglalakad. Marami kaming napag-usapan on our way back. He was making this ridiculously corny jokes and I can’t help but laugh along with him.
“Alright Mark.”, sabi naman nito saka naglakad papunta sa kotse nito.
I closed my window and drove off.
Nang marating ko ang apartment ko ay agad nagpahinga ako ng kaunti saka nagshower. Isa sa habit ko ang mag-shower sa gabi after work. A hot shower always relaxes my muscles and I always get a good night’s rest.
Nang matapos akong magshower ay nagsuot ako ng bagong pares ng boxers saka pinatay ang ilaw at nahiga sa kama. I felt comfortable with just my boxers on kapag natutulog. Although on most occasions, I’m lying naked because I’m too lazy to get dressed after having sex. But I always make it a point to have my partner leave before sleeping. I’m only in it for the sex after all and I make this pretty clear to them before we have sex. On some occasions though, like last night, I’m so wasted to even bother so I just have them leave when I wake up in the morning. Either way, alam nilang pleasure lang ang hanap ko and that’s what they agreed on.
Suddenly, Jared popped into my mind. I can’t help but smile seeing him so animated habang nagkikwento ng experiences niya. He’s really an outgoing and positive person. Yung tipo na kapag tumawa siya o kahit ngumiti lang eh nakakahawa.
And the way he makes me blush. God! It’s so embarrassing. I mean, I know I like him as a person. I’m just not quite sure if I like him as more than that.
I’m just gonna have to wait and see. Maybe I can have fun with him. Yeah. A little fun would definitely be nice.
Nakatulog ako sa isiping ito.
Kinaumagahan ay maaga akong pumunta sa opisina. Though I didn’t want to admit it, I’m actually looking forward to seeing Jared.
Nang makarating ako sa office ay naroon na si Jared. I merely nodded towards his direction and he smiled in return. I think I saw him blush but maybe it was just my imagination. Dumiretso ako sa office. Something’s different. My office smells different.
I looked around at nakita kong may isang cup ng Starbucks coffee. It’s what I always have ‘pag naroon ako. I picked it up and took a sip.. I was about to put it down when I saw the little note underneath where it was. Binasa ko ito.
