Secretary

"Wake up, baby."

"It's still early, Zerxes Lock. Let me sleep."

I moved my right arm away from his waist and turned my back on him. I figured that he wants to leave now since he has to take care of his work. He's busy, I know.

"Come on," he whispered with his bedroom voice. He just woke up, too. Isn't he tired? I mean, it's only three hours of sleep, it's not enough! I need and want to sleep more, myself. Baka 'yan si Zerxes ay sanay na, tss.

He kissed my nape and wrapped his left arm on my waist. Napadilat ako nang puwersado at napabangon. I wrapped the comforter around me at hinila ito nang makatayo. Sumimangot nang mapatingin sa kasama ko na nakadamit na ngayon.

"Enough na, hoy. You have a long day and week ahead of you, same with me. Let's get our ass up," natatawa kong sabi at binato siya ng isang unan na kaagad naman niyang nasambot.

When I started walking towards my walk in closet, I can feel pain between my thighs. Err, it's just normal. I just have to bear with it, right? I went inside my closet to pick a shirt and short, he followed. May iilan din kasing damit dito si Zerxes since he used to sleep here before when his work is near the area.

I just don't know that his next "sleep" on my condo will turn out like this. Tsk, ako pala ang gusto trabahuin.

I laughed at the thought. Lumingon sa akin si Zerxes na bahagyang nakakunot ang noo, tila ba nagtatanong kung bakit bigla akong napatawa. I shooked my head while suppressing a laugh. He's still looking at me like that so I rolled my eyes.

I'd rather not, Attorney. My thoughts are absurd and simply dirty. Kung alam mo lang.

"I'll shower first, Attorney. I'll cook when I'm finished."

I smiled at him and left him dumbfounded there.




"Baby, gotta go. I have so much work to do, I'm sorry I can't drop you off."

"It's okay, just don't stress yourself out too much. Love you po," I smiled sweetly at him and pouted for a kiss. He leaned towards me and kissed me before hugging me tight.

"Go ka na," I pushed him and he lazily let go of me. Paatras itong naglakad papalayo at kumaway pa sa'kin bago tumalikod. Even after he disappeared from my sight, my smile remained.

It's been almost 5 long years of journey with him. But his sweetness, love and care never faded. Masarap siya magmahal at masarap mahalin. I'm glad he became mine and I became his. There's no hint of regret inside me even after all these years.

I sipped on my coffee and smiled to myself.

I grabbed my phone on the countertop and called Kuya. I'm too tired to make excuses kapag sa department head ko pa ipinaalam. I'll just tell it to kuya directly, I believe he'll understand.

"Kuya kong pogi."

"Ang bola sa ball games ginagamit, Claize."

"Lol, kuya. I just want to tell you that I'll be absent for today. Napagod ako dahil sa...kagabi...kuya. Yes, from last night."

"The party?"

"Yes, m-mayroon pa bang iba dapat?"

"I don't know, you tell me."

Kuya then hanged up on me kaya naman naiwan ako doon na naka awang ang bibig. What the actual fuck? I felt my phone vibrate. Probably because a message came in.
