BDSM SOCIETY: His Precious Possession

CHAPTER 19

"Good morning, Dad! You're up early," I commented when I reached at him in the kitchen.

"Good morning, Duress. How's sleep?"

"We slept well, Daddy." Masyadong napagod si Xantheus sa biyahe kaya napasarap ang tulog niya.

I poured a cup of coffee from the percolator and sat on the stool while watching him preparing for breakfast. Tiningnan niya ako saka ngumiti.

"Do you wanna help?" alok niya. Masaya akong tumango saka agad na tumayo at nagsuot ng apron upang tulungan siya.

He gave me tips and kitchen hacks on how to make things easy in the kitchen. Katulad nalang ng pag-chop ng chicken at kung paano kuhanin ang mga buto na buo pa rin ang laman. And how to slice pineapple chunks like Del Monte. From peeling to slicing.

"Wow, this is easy!

Dad chuckled to my amazement. Ang sarap sa feeling na ganito. I never got the chance to do this with dad when I was young. We never bond like a family. My mother was so driven with her business and so was daddy.

"Do you know his favorite?"

"Yeah. Oftentimes, I cooked it for him." I helped him chopped vegetables and prepared the ingredients.

"But he never got the chance to cook yours for you. He's not really good in the kitchen no matter how much I taught him to cook."

Ngumiti ako. "Yeah, but he's the best man I could ever ask, dad."

Daddy proudly nodded. "That's the inheritance that will never be stolen, Duress. We taught him how to be a man to everyone. That, if he wanted someone to respect and treat his mother and sister right, he should also do the same with people around him. To treat everyone right. Good deeds make good karma."

May pinagmanahan naman pala talaga si Xantheus. His father was a man. I fell in love with the mindset. Mommy Xexe deserved him and the way I saw it, he deserved her too. Ang saya ng pamilya nila. They were abundant with love. They sprung from love. Hindi ko tuloy naiwasang ikumpara ang pamilya ko sa pamilya nila. Ang layo.

"What is your favorite breakfast meal? I'll cook it for you."

"Really?!" My mood lit up even more and I felt my heart sank.

Daddy Atheus taught me a lot. We laughed and shared bonds together while enjoying the kitchen. Niluto namin ang paborito kong breakfast. At tinuruan niya rin akong lutuin iyong kay Xantheus. I also helped him cooked for mommy's favorite.

Masaya kaming nagtatawanan habang nagluluto nang wala sa sarili na napatingin ako sa may pinto. I saw him seriously poring us. Leaning on the door frame with arms crossed. Hindi ko mabasa ang emosyon sa kaniyang mga mata habang pinapanood kami.

I smiled. "Good morning, Love!" masayang bati ko. "Coffee?" Lumapit ako sa percolator at nagsalin ng kape sa tasa. Saktong pumasok din si mommy.

"Good morning, Honey!" bati ni dad. Mom went to him and gave him a good morning kiss. Nilagyan ko na rin ng kape ang tasa ni mommy.

"Wow! My favorite!" Napangiti ako nang masaya si mommy na tinunghayan ang niluluto namin ni dad.

"Of course. For my precious wife." And it looked like they had their own world now. Nang tingnan ko si Xantheus ay seryoso pa rin siyang nakatitig sakin.

Lumapit siya at kinuha ang kape. Kumunot ang noo ko nang tumalikod siya at umalis sa kusina. I glanced at his parents before I took off the apron and ran towards him.

"Xantheus!" Naabutan ko siyang nasa kalahati na ng hagdan paakyat sa itaas. He headed straight to the room like he never heard me. Sinundan ko lang siya hanggang sa kwarto. "Love?"
