Ring of Promises

Epilogue

"I wonder what will be the reaction of your artists and employees..." tiningala ko siya at ngumuso. "Caspian Silvestre was fucking his accountant."

"Caspian Silvestre was fucking... who?" Humigpit ang yakap niya sa akin at parang hindi matanggap na sa akin nanggaling ang mga salitang 'yon.

"Amanda Marcus, your accountant?" I pouted at him when he creased his forehead.

"Babe, we haven't fuck yet, it's all making love. Now, tell me who taught you that thing? Did anyone taught you how to do that thing? Huh? Answer me." Panghahamon niya sa akin. Of course, it's him!

"We just did! Earlier! Sa living room, sa bathroom, at dito sa kama mo." Seryosong sabi ko sa kanya. He closed his eyes as if he's hurt by my words.

"I told you, what we did, it's all making love." He scoffed at me. "If you would just ask for it, we should've done that, too."

"Ano? I know the difference between the two!" Pinanlakihan ko siya ng mata habang unti-unting sumisilay ang ngiti sa kanyang mga labi. "Love making, it's passionate, sweet and slow! While fucking... it's rough and hard."

"I told you, I can do harder and you'll understand what I'm saying. I'm just scared to do it, you might pass out." Kinurot ko ang kanyang braso dahil sa sinabi niya.

"I'm ashamed! I just touched you and you almost explode! Sinong hihimatayin ngayon sa ating dalawa, huh?" Humagalpak siya, hindi na napigilan ang sarili. See? Pinagtatawanan ang sarili niya kasi totoo naman!

"Alright," nakipagtitigan siya sa akin, medyo kumalma na mula sa pagtawa. "But, you're not just my accountant, you're my fiancée. Once we're married you'll be my wife."

"Whatever!" Tinalikuran ko siya at inunan ang kamay. His right hand gripped my forearm. I pouted when I realized how fragile I am whenever he's beside me. Ang liit ko at ang laki-laki niya.

Ang kaliwang braso niya ay nakapatong sa ulunan ko. I can feel his right arm grazing my underboob.

"Are you ready for tomorrow?" Biglang tanong niya sa akin.

Tumango lang ako dahil unti-unti nang hinihila ng antok. When I woke up, I remembered what we did last night.

We decided to watch the city lights. Kaso ang mga sofa niya ay nakatalikod sa bintana kaya nakaluhod ako habang nakatuko ang siko sa backrest ng upuan. He's just sitting beside me. Akala ko ay panonoorin namin ang siyudad pero umiinom lang naman siya ng wine habang nakaayos ng upo.

"Akala ko panonoorin natin 'to?" Nakangusong tanong ko. Hindi na ako nag-abalang lingunin siya dahil patay naman na ang lahat ng ilaw, tanging ang buwan na lang ang nagbibigay liwanag sa buong paligid namin.

"It's okay, I'll just watch you from here."

I sighed and tilted my head. Siguro sawa na siyang makita 'to? Gabi-gabi ba naman ito ang bubungad sa kanya. I bet I wouldn't get tired of watching this, the small lights managed to glow in the middle of the night. Is it not  wonderful and mesmerizing?
