54. PLAYDATE WITH DESTINY

"Daenarys, you have a visitor." My brows met when I saw her wearing a red lipstick and her hair are perfectly curled by its tips.

"Oh okay." She giggled and looked at the mirror once again to check her self.

Nang palagpas na siya sa'kin ay hinawakan ko nang mahigpit ang braso niya. "Who's that boy? Where are you two going? And bakit ayos na ayos ka?" I asked while frowning.

She smiled sweetly. "It's none of your business," she said and walked away.

Sinundan ko naman siya at nakitang kahalikan niya 'yung lalaking nagpakilalang bisita niya. I felt my chest hurt.

"Oh? What are you doing? You want to watch us kissing and making love?" she asked bluntly.

I shook my head. "No, go ahead. Basta before 10 pm dapat nakauwi kana."

She waved her had. "Okay, bye!"

She's my wife. Lagi siyang may mga dalang lalaki na kung sino-sino nalang. Aaminin ko masakit sa part kong makita siyang may kasamang iba, masaya sa iba, makipaghalikan at yakapan sa iba, pero anong magagawa ko? Mahal na mahal ko, e'. Handa akong maging martir para lang 'di siya mawala.

Magdala man siya ng mga lalaki. Alam kong at the end of the day, sa'kin siya uuwi at masaya na ako doon.

"Daenarys, paborito mo itong sinigang na baboy 'di ba? Nagluto ako niyan para sa'yo. Sana'y magustuhan mo." Inilapag ko ang isang mangkok ng Sinigang.

"Masarap ba 'to? Pag hindi ito masarap, iiwan talaga kita," pilyang aniya saka tumawa. Her laugh is a music in my ears.

"Masarap 'yan!"

Dahan-dahan naman siyang kumuha ng kaunti at hinigop ito. "Hmm..."

"What? Masarap ba?" tanong ko habang pinapanood siyang simutin ang nasa kutsara niya.

"Pwede na sa taong gutom!"

Napakamot naman ako sa batok ko. "Aish! Sabi ko na nga ba, you won't like it!"

Kinuha ko ang bowl saka ilalagay na sana sa lababo ngunit pinigilan ako nito sa braso. "'Wag, masarap naman, e." Inagaw niya sa'kin ang bowl saka humigop ng mainit na sabaw.

"Akala ko ba pwede na sa taong gutom?" Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay.

She smirked. "Pwede na nga, salamat."

I gave her a questioning look. "Why are you thanking me?"

Tumingin siya sa taas animo'y nag-iisip. "Hmm.. sabihin nating nagpapasalamat ako sa lahat-lahat. Sa pagiging maintindihin, maaalahanin, mapagmahal, and so on. Even though I didn't payback your loyalty, you stay loyal to me and a faithful husband."

I kissed her forehead. "I got hundred million reasons to walk away, but baby I just need one good one to stay and that is my love for you. Minamahal pa rin kita kahit ang sakit-sakit na, minamahal pa rin kita kahit na naghahanap ka pa din ng iba. Wala, e. Mas matimbang 'yung pagmamahal ko sa'yo."

"Sorry." She looked down and played with her fingers.

I lifted her chip up and looked straight in her beguiling eyes. "No, don't say sorry. It's not your fault. No matter how much pain you're giving me, my heart still scream the words 'I love you'."

She just gaved me a weak smile and continued eating her favorite Sinigang.

"Oh? Nandito ka pala?" She looked surprise when she saw me got out of our room. My sight is still blurred but I know that she's with another man, again.

His arms are around her waist and her head is placed on his chest. They looked like a couple in a movie, but she's mine tho.

"New boy again huh," I said while holding a mug of coffee.
