Make Up

"And then what?" Marahan kong tanong at saka mabagal na pinadausdos ang aking mga daliri sa kanyang pisngi pababa sa kanyang leeg.

Nakita kong napapikit siya at napakagat sa labi ng mariin. Tila lalo naman akong nag init dahil sa napaka hot niyang hitsura noong gawin niya 'yon.

"What do you mean?" She huskily asked. She slowly opened her eyes and so her chocolate esys meet my dark ones.

"After I kissed you, what happens next? Tapos na lang, ganoon?" Taas ko ng kilay sa kanya. Ano, maghahalikan na lang kami tapos walang mangyayari pagkatapos?

No, I'm not thinking about the sexual scenes after we kissed. I'm thinking of what will happen next, if we could still make up and fix what we had. If we could still fix our relationship that I've chose to broke nine years ago because I thought she'll leave the country if I wouldn't.

But guess what? She still left, intentionally. Walang pumilit, siya mismo ang may kagustuhan at bakit? Kasi nasaktan ko siya.

"Bakit? Ano bang gusto mong mangyari?" She raised her brows at me too with playfulness in her eyes. Sabi na nga ba at iba ang iisipin niya sa mga sinabi ko.

I shook my head, "I'm not thinking about that, Joey." Tanggi ko pa.

I saw the side of her lips turned up slightly, "Then what are you thinking, huh?" Mas naging kaakit-akit ang boses niya at hindi ko alam kung sinasadya niya 'yon o ano!

Basta ang alam ko lang, ay naaakit ako... ng sobra.

Lumunok ako at bumilis ang tibok ng puso. Paano kung gusto niya lang talaga ng halikan pero ayaw niya na talaga kaming magkabalikan? Paano kung totoo talaga ang mga naiisip ko na naghihiganti lang siya at sila talaga ni Drake?

Kung alin man sa mga dahilan na 'yon ay hindi ko gusto. Ayaw ko ng mga nun.

"What are you thinking, Engineer?" She whispered. I breathed heavily when she put her palm on my cheek and caressed it. Oh God, the way she gently caressed my cheek is making me aroused!

Damn it, Praize! Tanungin mo muna siya!

"You..." Mahina kong sagot. I saw how her eyes darkened when I said that. Her jaw clamped and she look down to my lips.

"What are you thinking of me?" Namamaos ang boses niyang tanong.

I gulped and stated at her. You can do this, Praize! You just have to ask her! You just have to ask and then that's it!

"I'm just thinking if we could still fix our relationship after this, Joey. I'm thinking if we could make up after this..." I confessed and swallowed hard once again.

Bahagya siyang natigilan. Nanlaki ang mga mata niya sa sinabi ko at tinitigan ako lalo ng mariin. Her jaw clenched again and her breathing got faster. I saw her chest fastly rising and falling because of her quick breathing.

"What?" She asked, like she didn't saw what's coming.

"Joey, please... let's fix this. I know I left you, but baby, I have my reasons. Alam kong parang sobrang kapal ng mukha ko ngayon dahil ito ang hinihiling ko pero please, Joey, hear me out. Just give me a chance to explain and then after that, kapag ayaw mo pa rin, then hindi ko ipipilit!" Mahaba kong litanya at desperado siyang tiningnan.

"Please, Joey, hear me out. I know you already moved on and I know that I'm already almost nine years late pero... magpapaliwanag lang ako," My voice broke. I felt the sides of my eyes glistened with tears.
