Made For Him

Chapter 26

Vanessa Jasmine's

Rio drove the car in silence. He never talk again after we got inside this car and same goes to me.

Nakarating kami ng bahay ng wala ni isa saamin ang nagsasalita. He open the door for me to walk out of the car. Although no one wants to speak, he held my waist as we move on the living room.

Nakita ko siyang sumulyap sa relo niya. "It's two in the morning. We should sleep but drink a water first." He said saka dumiretso ng kusina. Sinundan ko ito at umupo sa island counter na naroon.

Pumangalumbaba ako rito at sinundan ang bawat galaw nito. Hindi ko naman kailangan uminom ng tubig dahil di naman ako uminom.

But instead of just water, Rio bring out a milk and water out of the refrigerator. He poured the two in a glasses. "Who's gonna drink the milk?" I asked. Confusedly looking at him.

"You." Sabi niya saka ibinalik sa ref and inilabas niya kanina. I smile at his sudden change of mind. I find this sweet.

"Milk. To make you sleep better." He said saka ibinigay saakin ang isang baso. Sumimangot ako rito pero tinanggap iyon.

"I'm not a child though." I laughed. He just smile at me and pinched my nose then drink his water.

In a times like this, Rio is really different. He's sweet and gentle. Gone the scary and furious Rio I have seen earlier at the bar.

Ininom ko na ang gatas na ibinigay niya saakin. Once I was done, Rio put the glasses on the kitchen. Naglakad na ito papunta saakin saka ako hinila patayo.

"Time to go to bed." Saka ako hinawakan muli bewang at inalalayan ako paakyat ng hagdan.

Suddenly, I'm starting to get nervous. Why is he clinging into me? And the realization that this is the first time that he will properly send me to sleep. For the past weeks that I'm in this house alone after Naia went home, he was busy. We never talk nor see properly again. He was always away.

He then opened the door to my room and went inside. Tinanggal nito ang coat na suot at isinabit iyon sa single couch sa loob ng kwarto at humarap saakin.

"Change into your nighties or pyjamas then go to sleep." Then he sat down at the single couch where he put the coat.

Kinakabahang tumayo lang ako roon at diretsong nakatingin sakanya. "W-why are you s-still here?" I unconciously rub my middle finger's nail in my thumb.

"You're fidgetting. I'm not going to do anything that you dislike, sweetheart." I was stunned. Not at the thought that he will not touched me but at the endearment he called me.

For a days that we have not met, this is again the first where he called me 'sweetheart' again.

"O-ok." Binalewala ko ang iniisip saka dumiretso sa C.R. ng kwarto. I removed my make up and dress then changed into a pair of pyjamas.

Lumabas na ako saka diretsong humiga sa higaan. I wrapped the comforter around me. Tinalikuran ko kung nasaan si Rio saka pumikit.

I can feel his eyes boring into me but it's not making me feel anxious instead i feel safe. I can feel my sleepiness but my mind is still wondering in the realm.

I felt my body weak beacuse of sleepiness. I think I'm half unconcious when I felt someone sat down at the bed where I'm in and caressed my hair. The warmth is making me more sleepy.

"I'm sorry for taking your happiness away." I heard a murmur. An unclear words before dozing off. The only word that was clear to me is "Sorry".

Kinabukasan ay tumatakbong pumunta ako ng banyo. I kneel near the toilet and starts to vomit. I can feel my stomcak turning and aching. I feel nauseated.
