Kabanata 39

Kabanata 39 : Rebellion

"Sir, yes, Sir!"

We just got dismissed from our last conference before out departure to Zamboanga.

Dalawang araw pagkatapos ng biglaang kasal namin ni Ryland ay heto kami ngayon at patungo na sa Zamboanga.

He would be the company commnader of our unit, which will be deployed on Zamboanga.

Bukas ng madaling araw ang alis namin kaya uuwi lang muna kami ngayon ni Ryland para kunin ang gamit namin at magtutungo na kami sa Clark Airbase.

"We'll be back soon," I uttered as we leave the headquarters. Ryland took a glance on me and then he sighed.

Tahimik lamang kaming dalawa sa sasakyan. Dinadama ang ilang sandali bago kami lumipad mamaya patungong Mindanao.

Alam kong malaking panganib ang pagpunta dahil kalat at kailangang subaybayan ang mga kilos ng rebeldeng grupo.

Ryland reached for my hand and held it. He glanced at me for a second and then turned his gaze back on the road.

"I'll just pack my things," I said as we arrived at Ryland's condo. Inayos ko ang mga gamit ko at inilagay na sa loob ng rucksack.

"Love, are you done?" Sumilip sa pinto si Ryland na parang bata. Tumayo ako mula sa pagkakaupo sa kama at naglakad patungo sa kaniya. 

He opened the door widely and spread his arms waiting for me to go to him and hug him tight. I ran and rested my head on his chest and he lift his hand on my nape to hold me.

"My baby looked stressed," he suddenlt said out of nowhere. Kaya inangat ko ang paningin ko sa kaniya.

He's perfume is so masculine that I couldn't stop sniffing it.

"No, I'm not. I just want to eat some ramen. Can you make some? Ayaw ko iyong nao-order, gusto ko ikaw magluto." I said like a child. Tumango naman siya at hinawakan ang aking kamay bago kami nagtungo sa kusina.

We just talked about work while he was cooking the ramen. It smells so good that made me wanna eat it now.

"I also want some dumplings," I said pouting.

"Let's order at mukhang matatagalan bago tayo makabalik dito." He chuckled and ordered at our favorite chinese resto.

Katatapos lamang magluto ni Ryland nang dumating na ang order ding dumplings.

"It's hot, you should eat the dumplings first," tumango ako at kinuha ang chopstick at kumuha ng dumpling.

It's almost eight when we finished eating. Naparami ako ng kain pero parang gusto ko pa kumain. I'm feeling weird but I just shrugged it off.

Kanina pa ako nakaligo at nagbabasa ng files sa aking e-mail. Ryland went out of the shower only with his sweatpants and nothing on his top.

"Tulog na tayo, we're going early tomorrow." He said in his bedroom voice. Lumapit siya sa kinauupuan ko at sumandal sa desk bago mataman akong tinignan.

"Yes, my General." I said chuckling. I pulled him to bed and then I rested my head on his bare chest. Uh, this is what I want, I feel like a clingy wife.

"I'll sing a song for you my wife." Tumango ako ng bahagya at mas lalo pa akong inaantok dahil sa mahinang pag-haplos niya sa aking buhok.
