I'm Coming Back, Manila

"What rule?"

Kumunot ang noo ko habang inaayos ang higaan niyang pinaghigaan ko. Sigurado naman akong walang nangyari kagabi dahil alam ko pa rin ginagawa ko pag lasing.

"My body is yours. Your body is mine. Simple as that." He stared at me. 

"Ang daya naman! We're not even together? Ano pinaglalaban mo diyan?" Humarap ako sa kaniya at nakapamewang pa. 

"But you agreed with me." He raised his brows. "Fuck buddies.." He whispered and he moved his jaw.

"I agreed, yes! But It doesn't mean that... that I'll follow your 'nonsense' rule!" I rolled my eyes. "My body, my rules." 

"Okay, I understand. But, rule is rule!" Nginitian niya 'ko. Onti onti akong nakaramdam ng paghina ng tuhod ko. Karupukan ko talaga! "Lastly, schedule." 

"Ano namang schedule 'yan?" I crossed my arms. 

"We can do our thing anytime and anywhere. Just let me know, If you want. I'll let you know, If I want." He waved his brows. 

"Paano kapag may importanteng gagawin? Parehas tayong busy! Interior Design ang course mo! Ako-"

"Architecture." He cuts me off. "Let's do our plates together. After that, you know what will happen." He gave me a wink. 

"That's unfair! Ikaw may batas, ako wala?" Umiwas ako ng tingin sa kaniya. 

"Ow, sounds grumpy. What is it? What rule do you want to implement?" He leaned a bit to see my face clearly. I swallowed hard. Kinakabahan na naman ako! I can feel his breathe. Sobrang lapit ng mukha naming dalawa. I don't know why I'm still nervous, eh I agreed with this!

"Kung ano sasabihin ko, gagawin mo." Simpleng sabi ko sa kaniya. 

"Like?" He asked. "Ayaw mo 'kong dumikit sa ibang babae? Ayaw mong may kahalikan akong iba? Ka-sex na iba?" 

"Yes!" Nagulat ako sa sinabi ko. "No pala. I mean, It's unfair. Kasi that's what you want din naman, right?" 

"May sinabi ako?" He chuckled a bit. He bit his lowerlip and put his tongue inside of his cheek. "But, okay? That's your only rule naman diba? And yes, I don't do girlfriend. If you fall, tss..." He chuckled. "Sorry."

"Ang kapal ng mukha mo no?" I wanna slap him! Ibang Caeleb ang inakala ko. Nakakainis! 

"Okay, okay. I'll follow your rule." He held my chin up. "I got you." He gave me a wink and he left a peck on my lips. I just rolled my eyes. 

"One last thing," I called his attention. 

"What? Do you want to...?" He slowly looked at me.
