Hit Of Love and Desire (LCS #3)

Chapter 19

Accept

Paikot-ikot ako sa kama habang binabasa ang message niya. Hindi naman ako nag reply pero hindi parin ako makapaniwala. It's already 11pm but I can't sleep. Hindi mawala sa isip ko ang ginawa ko kanina. I can still feel his skin. Nakakahiya pero masaya ako, I don't know what's the right word for my feelings.

Sa kalandian ko hindi ko namalayan na napindot ko na pala ang call. Napabangon ako ng makitang sinagot ni Stan ang aksidenteng tawag!

"Shit!" I wishper.

Pumikit ako at dahan dahang nilagay sa tenga ang phone. I gulp. The other line is quite.

"Dasha"

I open my eyes, looking if it's just a dream but NO! Stan called my name. I don't know what I like. His voice is husky in phone and cold in person.

"Amm.. sorry n-napindot ko lang" damn it Dasha bakit nauutal ka. I can't stop the fast beating of my heart, I'm nervous, not because I'm scared of him, I'm nervous because of the thought I'm crazy over him.

Narinig ko ang malalim niyang paghinga. "You can't sleep?"

Kinagat ko ang labi. Baka isipin niya nag pupuyat ako. "A little" Hindi ako makapag salita ng ayos dahil sa lakas ng tibok ng puso.

"You need to sleep it's late"

Nilaro laro ko ang blanket. "What about you? Did you celebrate your birthday?" Humina ang tinig ko. Ignoring what he said.

"Yes, but I didn't come, my relatives just had a dinner"

I pout. "They gave you a gift?" I bit my lip trying to calmed.

"Yes"

Natahimik kami. I could hear his calmed breathe, and base on his husky voice, he's sleepy.

"Are you asleep" he suddenly asked.

"No... I'm just thinking"

I heard his footsteps and slide of something, maybe he opened his window. "What is it?"

Nilingon ko ang side table kung nasaan ang regalo ko para sakanya. I'm thinking if I'll give it to him. But what if he ignore my gift.

"Dasha" he's really sleepy.

Kinagat ko ang labi. "Amm sorry... I have amm.. a gift for... You" mariin akong pumikit. Nakakahiya.

"Why you didn't give me earlier?"

I paused. Why I didn't give earlier? Meaning tatanggapin niya! I panick. Kinagat kagat ko ang labi dahil sa hindi mapigilang ngiti. Kinikilig ba ako?

"Sorry... I'll give it this monday" humiga ako habang tinatakpan ang bibig. Baka marinig niya ang munting ngiti ko.

"I will wait.."

Ano pa ba ang sasabihin ko. Sobra sobra na ang nararamdaman ko. Parang ako ang may birthday dahil sa sobrang saya ko. Pagkatapos ng tawag halos ibaon ko na ang sarili ko sa kama. He said good night! And because of that I can't sleep!

"Dasha"

"Dasha"

Dahan dahan kong minulat ang mga mata. Pulling down the blanket covering me. I look at the door.

"Mom" sagot ko.

"Are you still sleeping?"

I massage the bridge of my nose. "Just wake up"

"We're going out... Your food is ready"

"Okay mom"

When she's gone I immediately open my eyes, wider! I quickly get my phone to check if the call last night is true!
