Usual
Matapos naming maikot ang bayan ay kumain kami ng tanghalian sa isang kainan. Noong maghahapon na ay naglakad kami paakyat sa mga burol ng La Cecares. It's peaceful up here. No problems, just pure old nature. Narito rin ang mga windmills na siyang pinagmumulan ng kuryente ng buong probinsya.
"How was it?" Nilingon niya ako nang marinig ang tanong.
"How is what?" He raised his brows.
"Living alone for three years." Nagbuntong hininga siya at tumingin sa harap.
"Lonely but freeing. Im actually happier here than being with my family." I want to ask more questions but I stopped myself.
"Don't get me wrong, I love my parents. Very much, but I can't take hold of the responsibilities that they're putting on my shoulder. It's like I existed just because they need someone to keep their money rolling. I want to be more than what they want me to be." Humiga siya sa hita ko at hinawakan ang mga kamay ko. He played with my index finger using his thumb.
"I want the life I have now. Specially when you came into the picture." I chucked at what he said. Pinitik ko siya sa ulo at agad naman niyang hinilot ang sentido.
"Ulul! Ilang beses mo kaya akong pinalayas! Siraulo ka, came into the picture mo mukha mo. Sabi mo kakasuhan mo akong trespassing amputa." Tumawa naman siya at binawi ang mga kamay ko.
"Don't leave me okay?" I sighed and kissed his forehead.
"I won't, I promise." He nodded and played with my hands again.
"What if biglang dumating ang ex mo at sunduin ka?" Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay. Baliw amputa.
"Edi babayagan ko! Siraulo siya, umuwi siya mag-isa niya. He cheated on me and used me for his own benefit. Hindi ko nga sigurado kung minahal ko ba talaga siya o kung nauto lang talaga ako." Kumunot naman ang noo niya at bumangon sa pagkakahiga.
"Eh paano kung bored ka lang din kaya mo ako gusto?" Humalukipkip siya at tiningnan ako nang maigi.
"Bakit? Wala naman akong sinasabi na gusto kita ah. You just assumed." I smirked at him.
Nakita ko na lumaki ang mga mata niya kaya tumakbo na ako pababa ng burol. Tumatawa ako habang tumatakbo. Hinabol niya naman ako. Not long after the running, he caught me and tickled me. Hingal na hingal ako dahil ayaw niyang tumigil.
"Leche, tama na!" Tawa pa rin ako nang tawa. Nang tumigil siya ay pinaghahampas ko siya sa dibdib. He caught my hands and pulled me. He gave me a quick yet short kiss.
"Hoy Andres ha! Nakakarami ka na!" He just chuckled and hugged me.
Inalalayan niya akong makabalik sa taas ng burol dahil papanuorin namin ang paglubog ng araw. He was just hugging me from behind while we looked at the view in front of us.
