Between The Two of Us

Chapter 22

Chapter 22

I really never thought that I would survive the third year! That was for me, the most exhausting part of my college life. Sapat na ang apat na oras na tulog. Maswerte ka na kung makakalima ka.

That's why that summer vacation we had many plans. It's like breathing a new fresh air after the war. Ang sarap sa feeling na matapos mo yung isang nakakachallenge na bagay.

As they say, there's no easy that never comes from difficulty.

Sinalubong ako ni Spencer pagkapasok ko ng condo. Kaagad akong yumuko para mayakap sya. He wiggled his tale and bark soflty at me.

"Hi baby. Mommy misses you!" I said as I played with his head. It's been months since I have him and I must say that he's a good stress reliever.

Dinilaan nya ang palad ko kaya bahagya akong nakiliti. Ilang sandali pa akong nakipagkulitan sa kanya bago ko napagdesisyunang tumayo. Spencer followed me.

"Your daddy will come today. I'll cook first our lunch and you wait for him okay?"

He barked. Natawa naman ako. Feeling ko dahil sa dalas kong pakikipag usap sa kanya mamaya matuto na tong magsalita e. I gave him treats first before going into the kitchen.

Napagkasunduan kasi namin ni Tyrell na dito na mag-lunch. May pa house party kasi sya mamaya sa condo nya para sa advance birthday party nya. Ewan ko nga kung bakit dito pa kami mag- lalunch ngayon.

One thing that I liked here in my condo is I discovered a lot of things that I didn't know I was capable of doing. One thing is that I can cook now. Even without calling mommy on the other line. At least safe na yung tyan ko sa mga fast food. Another is I can bake too. Super random lang because I feel pressured on our exam so I did try and I think I'm good at it.

Lastly, I can paint! Hindi naman kasing galing ni Isaac or other artists but at least I can now. Sa bahay kasi naghehesitate ako dahil baka mapagalitan ni mommy, pero dito okay lang kasi ako naman ang maglilinis ng mga kalat ko.

I'm almost done in cooking our lunch when I heard someone entering my condo. For sure it's Tyrell. He has a duplicate key of my condo. And I have his too. Para less hassle na lang kapag may naiiwan kami tapos wala kami sa condo.

Mabilis na tumakbo si Spencer para salubungin si Tyrell. He wiggles his tail declaring his happiness to see Tyrell. I can hear Tyrell chuckling.

"Hey bud." he said and Spencer barked.

Sumilip ako mula sa kusina at naabutan ko syang dinidilaan ni Spencer. Nag-angat sya ng tingin sa akin pagkatapos ay nginitian ako.

"Hi love."

"Hi." tipid na sabi ko bago naiiling na bumalik sa pagluluto. Tinikman ko ito bago tuluyang pinatay ang apoy.

Bahagya akong napatalon sa gulat ng may biglang yumakap sa akin mula sa likuran. Tyrell rested his head in my neck while still hugging me from the back.

"Ang bango naman." he said while giving fiery kisses on my neck. Natatawa ko syang inirapan.

"Alin? Yung niluluto ko o ako?" I joked.

Tumawa sya sa akin at mas lalo akong niyakap.

"Both."

Umirap ako pagkatapos ay kumalas na. He groaned and I laughed. Ang hilig nya talagang mangyakap lately. Siguro kung bibigyan sya ng isang araw na kayakap ako hindi sya magsasawa. Adik sa yakap e.
