His Aphrodite

[Chapter 60: Se Agapó]

*Aphrodite's Point of View

I immediately held my chest when I felt my heart beating so fast the moment I made my way out. Patuloy naman ako sa paglalakad nang lumabas ako hanggang sa namalayan ko nalang na halos nasa field na ako ng university.

Unknowingly, I started looking up at the sky to relax, the same time a gust of wind suddenly flow through my face making me close my eyes.

Napabuntong-hininga ako habang hawak-hawak parin ang dibdib ko. I deeply sighed and was about to go back, not until a strong grip of arms suddenly roamed through my waist and eventually hugged me back.

Agad naman akong napangiti ng patago nang mangyari 'yon.

"Everything alright?"

But suddenly, the smile plastered on my face suddenly faded the moment he asked me that with his most concerned voice. Hindi ko naman maiwasan na mapapikit nang marinig 'yon at napahinga muna ng malalim bago tumingin sa kaniya.

There, I saw him looking back directly at me.

He suddenly gave me a kiss on the forehead when he seemed to noticed me staring back at him that made me slightly close my eyes before returning my gaze towards him.

Nang maalala ko naman ang tanong niya ay halos mapatingin ulit ako sa langit na naging dahilan para mapangiti ako ng matamlay nang makita kong halos bilang lang kung ilang bituin ang nakikita ko.

Eventually, I just found myself looking back at him again that made him chuckled.

"Hey, something wrong? You seemed to have a lot in mind."Hinawakan niya naman ang mukha ko at iginaya na mas lalong tumingin pa sa kaniya.

I smile weakly and just shook my head off.

Ngumiti naman agad siya nang makita ang naging sagot ko bago niya ako biglang yakapin. I eventually found myself hugging him tight the moment he did it and feel the warmth of his embrace.

Damn, Zack.

"Why did you suddenly went out, anyway?"

It was the first thing that he said the moment we broke the gap between us. I immediately saw once again his eyes, sparkling when he did that. Pero agad din naman siyang napakunot ng noo nang makita niya akong umiling at ngumiti.

"There is something wrong. You never smile when there's something wrong."Napatingin naman agad ako sa kaniya nang sabihin niya 'yon na naging dahilan para hindi ko mapigilan na mas lalo pang tumawa ng mahina.

"You seemed to memorized all my mannerism."I said and suddey messed up with his hair. He suddenly raised a brow.

"Of course, I do."He proudly said and grinned back at me. Hinawakan niya naman ang kamay ko at tinignan na naman ako.

"So, there is something wrong?"He assumed.

I just shook my head off once again as an answer, the moment I heard his question.

Eventually, I tightened my grip from his hand and gave him a peck on the lips.

I was about to pulled off, but then he suddenly grab me by the waist and just deepened the kiss more. It immediately made me to put my arms around his neck and responded.

I smile when he tigtened the grip of his hand from mine when we eventually found ourselves going back to the Alum. Napatingin naman ako sa kaniya dahil doon at sabay na napangiti.

"You're never going to tell me?"He asked.

Napatigil na naman kami sa paglalakad at ipinaharap ako bigla sa kaniya. I just chuckled the moment he asked me that because it's been quite roaming through my ears already.

He's been seriously and literally asking me that question every minute while we're continue walking.

"It's dangerous to be clueless, Zack. You know that already."I smirked. Nakita ko na naman kung paano siya sumimangot sa sinabi ko at biglang hapitin na naman ako sa beywang.

He suddenly looked so serious the moment he did that.

"Why am I getting the feeling that you're avoiding the question?"He asked me. Nawala naman agad ang ngisi ko dahil sa naging tanong niya sa akin na naging dahilan para tignan ko kaagad siya ng malamig.

His forehead immediately creased when he saw my reaction.

"Zack."I nonchalantly called out his name.

Tinignan ko naman siya ng diretso sa mata bago magsalita.

"Are you really going to risk every single thing?"

Instead of answering his question which felt like an understatement, I eventually asked him that. Nawala naman agad ang pagkahapit niya sa beywang ko na nakakunot parin ang noo.

"You know the answer to that, Aphrodite."I raised an eyebrow at him.

"Wh-"

There, our lips just met again. Halos hindi ko naman mapigilan na mapangisi nang gawin niya 'yon at rumesponde nalang ulit sa halik niya.

This guy is really unpredictable.

"I told you, I can risk for more just to prove everything to you."He grinned when he told me what he said the last time I asked him that.

I just smirked, as well.

Lumapit naman siya sa akin at hinawakan ako sa mukha. I held his hand the moment I felt it brushed through my face and sweetly smiled.

"Se agapó, Afrodíti."I can't help but to smile the moment I understand what he meant.

Agad naman akong nakaramdam ng malambot na halik sa noo nang sabihin niya 'yon bago niya ako muling tignan.

I suddenly held out his hand on my face after noticing how he stared at me.

"Se agapó ki ego, Zak."

And with that, as if a strong gust of wind made me immediately tiptoed towards him and gave him one last kiss on the lips. He guided me to him with a smile plastered on his face and immediately hug me once again that made me silently chuckled and shook my head off.

He really loves hugs and kisses.

Agad niya namang hinawakan ang kamay ko na may ngiti sa mukha at doon na kami nagpatuloy sa paglalakad pabalik ng Alum.

But I immediately get rid of the smile on my face as I just found myself eventually staring at him with his back facing me, just like what happened back inside.

I'll always love you, Zack. Napapikit nalang ako bago sabayan siya ulit sa paglalakad.
