See You Soon, Love

Chapter 27

27

Kailangang bumalik ni Giro ng Manila dahil may aasikasuhin pa sa shipping line nila. Hindi pa pala siya tapos sa ginagawa niya ngunit pumunta na dito sa Mindanao kaya ayan.

He was in front of his laptop most of the time, may mga kausap. Pero sumasama naman sa akin kapag may lakad ako.

I checked on him in his room and he's still working for three hours straight. I went to the kitchen and baked him cookies.

Nang natapos ay pumasok ako sa room niya dala ang cookies. He can't see me dahil nakatalikod siya mula sa pinto. Tsaka niya lang ako napansin nang inilagay ko na ang cookies sa kabilang table.

"I baked cookies." I said as I walked towards him, taking a bite from a cookie.

He leaned back to his chair at umatras ng kaunti. Inilayo ko muna ang laptop mula sa kanya. I sat sideways on his lap so that he can take a short break from the screen and fed him the cookie. "Ah."

He took a bite and I smiled while looking at his reaction. You'll fall in love just by tasting a cookie I made.

He held my hand and ate the remaining cookie whole kahit hindi pa siya tapos kumain. He even ate the crumbs left on my fingers.

"Ew." I laughed when I felt a slight wetness from his lips.

"Ate and left no crumbs." He smirked and chuckled.

"Do you want another one?" Tatayo na sana ako but he stopped me.

"Later." He held my waist to support me while he slightly lifted his hip up to set me in a more comfortable position.

I cleared my throat, thinking why I fucking liked what he did. Gosh.

"Have you booked a plane ticket for tomorrow yet?" Tanong ko at hinawakan sa dalawang kamay ang isang kamay niyang nakapatong sa hita ko.

"Yeah. I need to really go this time."

"That's okay. You have to resolve the issue. Babalik na rin naman ako ng Manila in three days." I said as I started massaging his hand.

I started with his palm. Then his long fingers. His hand is very way bigger compared to mine.

"Do you still draw ships?" He's an architect after all. And an engineer too.

Wow. My boyfriend's an architect and an engineer at the same time.

"Sometimes, when a design comes to mind. Like for a yacht or a cruise ship. But most of our vessels are designed by the workforce. I just tweak them when necessary. But they're already really good though."

I nodded and leaned on him, still massaging his hand. "Can I see them?"

"Sure. Let's go to the port in Batangas when we go back to Manila."

I excitedly looked up at him. "For real?"

What I meant was the blueprints of his designs but seeing them in actual would be very much better!

"Mm. For real." He lifted my hand and kissed them.

I smiled and kissed his hand too. He's watching it closely while I did that so I showered his hand with more small kisses.

"Stop. That's making me blush."

I didn't stop so he locked both of my hands with one hand and tickled me with kisses on my neck.

"Stop." I laughed.

I spent another two days in the plantations then went back to Manila with my friends.
