Achilles

I woke up to Lada's voice na tila may kausap, I sat up and I saw her sa balcony na mayroong  ka-video call. It's probably my cousin, pero bakit ako naiinis na makita siyang nakangiti at masaya, she's even warm and she looks excited habang kausap ang boyfriend niya.

Bumangon na ako at pinuntahan siya. Kumaway din ako sa video para batiin si Axel, I want him to know that we spent the night together on one bed, para hindi na lang ako ang mainis.

"What do you want for breakfast, Lada?" Tanong ko bago humila ng upuan para umupo sa tabi niya. Bahagyang sumimagot si Lada na parang nakakaistorbo ako sa moment nila.

"Scambled egss, peaches and fresh mangoes, samahan mo na din ng waffles." Nakasimangot na sagot niya sa tanong ko.

I was half naked and Axel can see that from the video.

"Wait.. you were in the same room?" Naguguluhang tanong ng pinsan ko.

"Same room, same bed." Tinignan ako ng masama ni Lada as if saying 'shut your goddamn mouth'.

"No other rooms available here, Axel. It's a big ass bed and we just slept, don't worry I won't do anything to your girlfriend that she won't like." Nakakalokong ngiti ko kay Lada.

"Don't listen to him, we are not on the same room. Adjoining lang yung bathroom ng room namin kaya siya andito sa kwarto ko." Pagsisinungaling ni Lada sa boyfriend niya. Ngumiti naman si Axel and I think he bought it.

"Take care of Lada there for me, Achilles. I know I can count on you at hindi mo hahayaang maagaw siya sa akin ng ibang lalake, right?" Ako na ang kausap niya and I know him, it is a warning. I should heed, but fuck me if I listen to him.

"Of course." Maikling sagot ko lang. Pinatay na ni Lada ang video call at inis na hinarap ako.

"Why would you say shit like that? I don't get you, Achilles Moratti." She stormed off. I just noticed na ang suot niya ang t-shirt na suot ko kahapon. She looks so damn sexy in it, I am liking this.

We went to the resort's resto and had breakfast. This girl has an appetite of 4 men. She ordered waffles with different fruits, meatloaf, scambled eggs, french toast and four seasons freshly squeezed juice. Unlike other women who would just order salads when they are with a guy so as not to be labeled "malakas kumain", nope, Lada aint like that.

Malapit na kaming matapos ng lumapit si Sora sa amin. Here goes hell. Argh!

"Achilles, darling. We are going to visit the caves today, I want you to join me." Walang pakundangan na sabi ni Sora sa harap pa mismo ng pretend wife niya. No reaction from Lada as usual, ano kaya magawa sa babaeng ito para magka reaksyon.

"We're scheduled to visit the caves this afternoon. Raincheck, Sora." Inakbayan ko si Lada, Hindi naman siya nagreklamo pero tinignan niya ako ng masama.

"Oh, good. So I'll see you there." Aalis na sana ito ng parang may naalala, she pivoted back at hinarap ang "mag asawa".

"You know what, Achilles. I don't really get what you see in this little girl. She is not your type, you want women who are wild, steamy, erotic and can satisfy you in bed. This one looks boring and cold. I mean, she's not even beautiful." She smirked na tila satisfied sa pang iinsulto niya kay Lada.

Sasagot sana si Achilles when Lada waved her hand like saying, let me handle this. So I let her. She stood up, poised, and looked Sora in the eye with oozing confidence.

"Well, I think you're beautiful. But I am 100% sure that your beauty can be wiped off by wet tissue." It left Sora speechless, Lada smiled triumphantly and gracefully walked away.
