Work

"I already filed my application to an international airline company and i am still waiting for—" i tried so hard not to stutter but it is impossible to do specially now that his attention is all on me.

He cut me off with his light kisses. "I will always support you. I wont stop you from achieving your dream, Kindle." he interrupted me. The look in his eyes is so clear in my memory. It surprised me. Hindi ko lam kung dapat ba akong masiyahan na lutang ako the whole time pag nandiyan siya! I awkwardly laughed but i felt my heart clenched for defeat.

Ito na talaga iyon. His making sure that i am never leaving again. Malakas ang kapit niya sa akin. Ramdam ko ang paninigurado niya.

"But the competition is high so i will only take what i can get? I still didnt get an email from the company anyway." i tried to make it as a joke but he is so serious to even laugh. My chest was aching so bad. I dreamed to earn my wings, i wanted it so bad but after achieving and living it for four years, i want more! People cant really be satisfied, huh? Working abroad was added to my list now. Pero biglang nag-iba iyong plano ko nnag bumalik siya. 

It's crazy how desperate i am right now, hoping that i wont get hired so that i dont have to leave again! Mas gusto ko nalang din na manatili rito tulad niya. Ayaw ko ng sayangin pa ang susunod na mga araw naming dalawa. Kung hindi naman ako magiging masaya bakit ko pa pipilitin iyong mga bagay na iyon diba? 

Limang taon na rin naman ang nabuhos ko para sa sariling mga pangarap. Masama ba kung ang mga pangarap naming dalawa naman ang pagtuonan ko ng pansin ngayon? 

He lifted his gaze on me, staring intently as if we're talking without words. The silence is heartbreaking. And its crazy how willing i am to give up everything for him! Gusto ko siya naman ang masunod. I wanna know what he think? What about his opinions? Gusto kong pag-iispan ng maigi ang lahat. 

"Whatever makes you happy..." he leaned closer and touched my lips with his. Mahina akong natawa dahil sa sagot niya. He softly pressed his lips for another passionate kiss, throbbing his tongue on mine. 

''What about you? Anong gusto mong gawin ko? Okay lang sayo na sa ibang bansa magtra-trabaho?'' I felt him caress the side of my eyes, wiping the tears that is now streaming down my cheeks. 

Ngumuso ako habang naghihintay ng kaniyang sagot.  But instead of answering he moved further and pressed more to deepened the kiss! I breathe deeply as my eyes open, catching my eyes for a moment and it caught me off guard. I looked at his sensual eyes then a strange feeling filled me as he stared darkly down at me with a smoldering look.

''Right...you can do whatever you want as long as we're together, i'm good.'' Hearing that from him killed me. Okay lang sa kaniya kahit anong gawin ko? 

''Paano kung matanggap ako?'' sinubukan ko ulit magatanong. His eyes softened while his fingers slowly caress my hands. ''What if i needed to move or live abroad?''

''I'll support you.'' he whispered. 

''Talaga? hindi ka magrereklamo?'' mukhang mas kinakabahan ako sa mga tipid niyang sagot sa mga tanong ko. Takot akong mgakamali ulit at baka masaktan ko na naman siya. Okay lang sa akniya ang lahat basta ay huwag ko lang siyang iwan...iwan like hiwalay? iyon lang ang kondisyon niya?

 He wrapped me in his arms and his warmth makes me more emotional. ''Gawin mo lahat ng gusto mo. Nandito lang naman ako parati para sayo. If you really need to go then i will let you. Maghihintay ako, Kindle.''
