Comrades in Action: Chase Vonn Book 6

Chapter Forty two

"Well I will be thinking of it as our long overdue honeymoon. So be ready, wife."

Mabilis siyang napa-iling sa naisip. Of course he doesn't mean that... He was just kidding... right...?

Muli siyang napa-iling upang matanggal sa utak niya ang bagay na kagabi pa bumabagabag sa kanya. Inilagay niya ang huling gamit sa kanyang bag bago iyon isinara.

Dala dala ang kanyang bag, lumabas na siya ng kwarto. Pababa na siya ng hagdan ng maulinigan niya ang isang pamilyar na boses sa sala. Ng tuluyan siyang makababa, nadatnan niya doon si Chase na kausap si Mason.

"Mason?"

Parehong napalingon sa kanya ang dalawa.

"Hey, Cayenne!"

"What are you doing here?"

Mason smiled at her. "May importante lang akong sadya sa asawa mo. Paalis na din naman ako." Lumingon ito kay Chase. "Oh pano, dude. Fighting!" Masayang wika nito kay Chase bago dumiretso sa pinto.

Ng tuluyan itong makalabas, saka pa lang niya nilapitan si Chase.

"What was that?" Nagtatakang tanong niya dito.

Chase just shrugged. "He came here early in the morning to wish me luck and to break a leg."

"Why would he tell you that?"

"Well..." He bit his lip. That action alone almost got her heart into overdrive if she hadn't caught herself quick. Hindi pa siya nakakahuma ng magsalita ito. "I told him about our honeymoon last night."

She gasped. Pakiramdam niya, daig pa niya ang nakakain ng isang kilong sili sa sobrang init ng mukha niya.

"You told him what?!"

"Our honeymoon." Balewalang sagot nito.

"But you were just kidding yesterday!"

Itinagilid nito ang ulo. "Am I?"

"Yes!" He was just joking, right?

"No. I don't remember laughing yesterday. I was absolutely being serious."

Nanlaki ang mga mata niya. "You... you..."

Chase chuckled at her baffled face. "I told you to be ready, didn't I? So I'm expecting you've packed a few lingeries in your bag?" He smirked.

"I did not!"

"Hm. Don't worry. You won't be needing them anyway. Any clothes for that matter." He winked.

"Chase! Iyang bibig mo! God, You're unbelievable!"

Isang malakas na tawa lang ang isinagot nito. "Let's go. The chopper is waiting." Anito bago siya tinalikuran habang tatawa tawa pa din.

For a moment there, she seriously contemplated if she'd go with him or not. Maiwan na lang kaya siya?

But of course. That was just wishful thinking. Iyon ang naiisip niya habang nakasakay silang dalawa sa chopper at bumabyahe sa himpapawid. She's still mulling over what he said.
