Make Up

I can feel my face heating as I look at Lucy. I gave a look at nakita ko ang nakanganga niyang bibig at halos lumuwa ang mata dahil sa posisyon namin ni Toran.

She fucking saw us kissing! Not just a simple one, I'm sure it looks sensual as hell! Kulang na lang ay maghubad kami sa sobrang pagkakadala namin sa paghahalikan. I can still actually feel the heat in my system. I'm sure Lucy can see that!

Toran is still locking me in between his arms. Ang kaliwang kamay ay nakahawak pa rin sa bewang ko habang ang kanan ay nasa gilid ng ulo ko. Nakatungo ang kanyang ulo at ramdam ko pa rin ang panggigigil niya.

"You can s-stay here, Lucy.." I said after I pushed Toran.

Nabitawan na niya ang pagkakakulong sa 'kin. He placed both of his hands on his waist at pumamewang. Nakatungo pa rin at paulit-ulit na umiigting ang panga.

"Huh? No! Uhh, ipagpatuloy ninyo lang!" palipat-lipat ang tingin ni Lucy, mukhang 'di mapakali. Her face is so red and I'm sure it feels awkward for her!

My heart is pounding so heavy because I know how loud she is! Sana ay itikom niya ang bibig niya at 'wag ipagkalat ang bumungad sa kanya rito. It's a fucking shame knowing that Toran is campaigning! Oh my ghod!

"Lalabas muna ako. Go continue! I didn't see anything!" she laughed awkwardly. "Enjoy!"

Nakita at narinig ko ang malakas na pagsara ng pinto. Mariin akong pumingit at bumuntong hininga.

I firmly stood up at tumagilid kay Toran para ayusin ang sarili. My top looks messy at dahil iyon sa palipat-lipat na hawak niya kanina!

"Can we talk?" magaspang ang boses ni Toran sa tanong na iyon.

"Nag-usap na tayo. Can we please forget what happened? That was uncalled for," mariin kong sagot at tumingin sa kanya.

His eyes are still dark and his lips are bloody red. Mukhang namamaga ang mga iyon. I avoided his gaze.

"The only thing that was uncalled for was us.. shouting and fighting. But the kisses? I don't think so," he said with a hint of humor.

"Kasama iyon do'n, Mr. Tovarres! I didn't even like your kisses!" pagsisinungaling ko.

"But you pulled me closer for a better access?" his right brow raised. Excuse me?!

"I didn't! Stop lying! Pwede ba?!" I can't stop myself from shouting.

This whole conversation is stressing me out! Idagdag pa si Lucy na naabutan kaming naghahalikan!

"You moaned alot.. You didn't hear yourself? Hmm?" he huskily asked as he stepped closer. Napaatras na naman ako.

"Can you stop shitting around? If you want us to talk, then, magsalita ka ngayon! If you're here finding for a closure then I'll give it to you para matapos na tayo nang tuluyan!" halos hingalin na ako dahil sa sobrang lakas st bilis nang pagkakasabi ko.

I looked at him and saw how he swallowed hard.

"No.. I can't do that.." mahina niyang sambit.

He stepped closer again and now we are back with our position minutes ago. Ramdam kong muli ang pader sa likod ko. Nakababa ang tingin niya sa akin at ang galit niyang mga mata ay nagsusumamo na ngayon.

He touched my face using his left hand. "Five years... I have longed for you for so long. I can't let you go," he whispered. Ramdam ko ang paghinga niya sa sobrang lapit naming dalawa.
