AYA'S

My husband's awfully quiet while having his super late lunch. He drove all the way to our house. Ipinagluto ko pa siya kaya ngayon lang ito nakakain. Nakasunod lang ako sa bawat pagsubo nito. Magsasalita na sana ako nang akala kong tapos na itong kumain but he went to the fridge to get some desserts. Naubos  nito ang cake at isang tub ng ice cream. Ako lang ba o gutom na gutom lang talaga ito. Nang akmang babalik na naman ito sa refrigerator para kumuha ng makakain, hinarangan ko na ito.

"I think you've had enough." Napabuntong hininga ito bago matamang tumitig sa akin.

"Are you full?" Sa halip ay tanong nito. Naguguluhang nakipagtitigan din ako dito.

"Well, I guess, we can have snacks in between." Iyon lang at binitbit na ako nito na parang isang sakong bigas.

"Wait-" pigil ko dito when he locked the door of our room. But he did not listen to me, instead, he deposited me in the bed. He started taking off his suit but I held his hand to stop him from getting naked. He look at me with those predatory eyes. Imbes na matakot, parang naeexcite pa ata ako but I need to control it. Kailangan naming mag-usap bago ang lahat.

"We need to talk." Umupo ako sa dulo ng kama. Inabot ko ang kamay nito at ipanaupo sa tabi ko. But he pulled me up and let me sit on his lap.

"You love me right?"

"Of course."

"Then it's all that matters to me."

"But you said you're jealous."

"I am. I can't help it. I know who that guy was."

"How did-"

"I know almost everything about you wife."

"Stalker."

"I'm too handsome to be one. I'm your admirer."

"Yeah right."

"On a more serious note, I will be working with him if everything will be settled." Tumikhim ito.

"Papayag ka?"

"Hmnnnn."

"Hindi ka magagalit or magseselos?"

He cupped my face and looked at me intently. "I will not forbid you from meeting that guy as long as it's pure business. But I cannot promise you that I will not be jealous."

"Wala namang dahilan para magselos ka. Iyong-iyo naman ako."

"Hindi mo maaalis sa akin ang mag-isip na pwede kang kunin sa akin ng kahit sinong lalaki na aaligid sayo. You're too beautiful inside and out."

"Listen to me love. No one can take me away from you. I love you so much to allow someone to break what we have. I did not know what I was looking for until you showed up for the second time. Ito pala ang matagal ko ng pinapangarap- ang bumuo ng sariling pamilya."

Nagulat na lang ako ng bigla niya akong inihiga at agad na dinaganan. On impulse, I slap him but he was fast enough to catch my hand.

"Bumuo ng pamilya you say?" Nakikita ko ang kapilyuhan sa mga mata nito. Napailing na lang ako.

"Hindi ka ba napapagod? Inaaraw-araw mo na ako."

"Never love. So let's start making a new member of this family. How many would you like to add?" He asked while slowly taking my clothes off.

"I guess a football team would not hurt." I answered and he roared in laughter.

XERXES'

Maaaga akong gumising para naman mapagsilbihan ko ang maganda kong asawa na hanggang ngayon ay tulog na tulog pa. Alam kong ako ang may kasalanan kung bakit napagod ito pero wala akong makapang pagsisi. Nangingiti pa akong binuksan ang pintuan ng sulod namin para sana gisingin ito pero isang lumilipad na unan ang sumalubong sa akin. Napahawak agad ako sa noo. Sa lakas ba naman ng pagkakatapon. Nakasimangot na Aya ang natagpuan kong umiika patungong banyo. I suddenly felt guilty so I rush to her side and pick her up bridal style. Nakatanggap pa ako ng kurot. I prepared her bath. Pinalayas agad ako nito pagkatapos. Narinig ko pa ang mahinang pag-aray nito kaya mas lalo akong naguilty.

"Why are you still here?" Tanong nito pagkabukas ng pintuan sa banyo. Napalunok pa ako kasi tumambad sa akin ang nakarobe lang na asawa.

"I was waiting for you to come out so I can carry you again. I know you're still sore."
I saw her blush but was trying to cover it with a scoff.

"Are we guilty now? Kung hindi pa ako nag pass out, hindi mo pa ako titigilan." Gigil na saad nito. I was sporting a puppy-look but deep inside, nagbubunyi ang kalooban ko. Kahit na may kaunting guilt, hindi parin matatawaran ang kasiyahang dulot ng nagdaang gabi.

"Ohhh, don't give me that look. That won't work on me." She hissed. I tried real heard to suppress my smile but fail kaya mag asawang kurot ang natanggap ko.

I carried her again, this time, to the dining area. At sa dami ng niluto ko, naubos namin pareho. Hanggang sa ihatid ko ito sa trabaho, nakaalalay pa rin ako.

Pakanta-kanta pa akong pumasok sa loob ng opisina when I received message from Bryan. I open my viber and my anger surged up in just a snap. On the photo, I saw that guy giving a bouquet of what seems like tulips to my wife.

'What are you waiting for man? Come back here and mark your wife.'

'You bet I will.'

G na G akong nagmaneho pabalik sa opisina ng asawa ko.
