“Hmm, stop that, baby,” I heard a familiar voice spoke behind me. “I’m jealous.”

I chuckled and faced Chly. “We’re already married. I am tied to you. There’s nothing you should be jealous about,” I said.

“No,” he shook his head,” “I’m still jealous.”

“Okay, how can I make it up to you so you won’t be jealous anymore?” I asked.

He just grinned and smirked. After that, he naughtily winked at me as he grabbed my waist to pull me closer to him.

“We still have to entertain our guests. Later, love,” I said and poked his pointy nose.

“Can’t wait,” he whispered on my ear.

We were having our moment as if we’re alone until someone shouted from my back.

“Please have some respect for people who are single like us!” Brei shouted and gulped the whole wine from her glass. We just laughed because of that.

As the sun slowly sets, guests started to go home. Family, acquaintances, friends, and some business partners were there. However, Val, Gia, and Brei stayed in the hotel to spend the night. Chly and I also went to our room to rest and get some energy for something naughty later.

And oh my god! The energy we have gathered is too much! We look like a little kid who doesn’t get tired of playing… well, except the fact that were not doing the kid’s way of playing. Our kind of playing is way more… addicting.

“My wife is really good at this, huh?” Chly said with his husky voice. I just smiled as I looked up the ceiling because I couldn’t contain my lust whenever I look at him. He’s really a master in bed!

I don’t know what time we have slept but all I know is that, the sun is already rising. We started in the midnight, anyway.

I woke up with a tickle on my face. As I slowly open my eyes, my husband’s smiling face greeted me a really great morning. I purred like a cat while I hide my face on Chly’s hard chest as I try to get more sleep. I heard him chuckled after that.

“Good morning, baby,” he said in a low toned voice. I did not reply, but hugged him instead. But what I did seems to be wrong. I can completely feel his body on mine. I don’t have any clothes on. I am completely naked. “You won’t get up?”

I shook my head as my reply. Maybe I really lost lots of energy that I needed to consume again. But I did not regret any of it though, it’s a real fun.

It was already 4 o’clock PM when we checked out. I also got texts from my friends that they already left the hotel and didn’t bother to knock on our door because they don’t want to disturb us.

“Where do you want to eat?” Chly asked while we’re walking towards the valet who gave us the key. Chly also tipped him before we got in the car.

“How about our things?” I asked.

“I already called someone to take care of it. All we have to do is have fun. Now, where do you want to eat, babe?”

“I’m thinking of eating fried chicken right now…” my voice slowed down as I think of any place that sells best fried chicken. And my mind landed on a fast food restaurant. He even asked me if I am sure about it.

“Okay, we’ll eat first before we fly to Palawan-”

“We will go to Palawan?!” I asked with so much surprise in my voice that made him laughed.

I am always talking about the Palawan ever since. I really wanted to go there but I can’t find a perfect timing because our schedule sometimes doesn’t get along. There are times that I am free while he’s not, and also there are times that he’s free while I am not. So, now is really a perfect timing to go there.

It’s not summer so I am sure that the guests are way lesser than the numbers of visitors during summer. Maybe it is also the reason why he did not encounter any problems while booking.

“You’re not joking? You were the one who booked us?”

He laughed. “Of course, baby. Why would I let someone book for us? Also, I intentionally do this because it’s my gift for you.”

“Aww,” I made a cute face that made him chuckled. “I don’t have any gift for you.”

“That’s okay. Your performance last night was enough,” he said. I immediately smashed his arm as my cheeks heated with embarrassment.

All the time, he was teasing me about it. He only became serious when he talked with the owner of the rest house we are renting for few days. The place was nice. From the house, we have to walk down the stone stairs to reach the shore. We can also just relax and watch the ocean from the veranda.

We are also surrounded by trees so the whole place is really quite and naturally cold. I can only hear the sound of the waves hitting the shore, leaves hitting each other and the calm blow of the wind.

The whole place is really relaxing, plus the fact that it’s only Chly and I who will be here for a few days. The life here is really peaceful compared to the life in city where you will always be worried about work.

Plus, the time here is very slow. You don’t have to do everything in rush. You won’t be in a hurry every day and your mind will always be at peace. A house near the shore is really a great place to relax and gather all your positive thoughts.

I inhaled an air while closing my eyes, feeling the warm breeze as I am holding on the cemented rough railings. My hair is being blown by the wind softly while I listen to the birds around, chirping.

When I opened my eyes, it’s the crystal blue sea water I saw first. Quite far from the shore itself, some parts of the ocean are green while most part of it was blue. Maybe it’s the sand or coral below it that makes the color different.

“Babe, let’s ride this kayak!” I heard Chly shouted from down there while pulling the crystal kayak near to the water.

My smile immediately widened when I realized what we can do in that beautiful kayak.

“Wait, I’ll change first and bring camera,” I said with extreme excitement in my tone.

Without further ado, I immediately ran towards the house and pick from my clothes. Luckily, I brought multiple two pieces and one pieces with us. Also, I brought the small camera we just bought last month. Good thing that we chose the water proof one. It’s really perfect for this!

“Lay there,” Chly instructed while holding the camera. I also obeyed what he said and laid on the spot that he pointed.

“Oh my!” I shouted lightly when I felt the kayak moved as if it will turn down. Chly just laugh with my reaction and made me look at the camera.

“Your face is hilarious!” he said as he continued laughing while I am here, tightening my grip on both sides to support myself from falling from the kayak.

We’re still on the shallow part but still don’t want to be wet. I want to take many pictures first before swimming. Eventually, he stopped laughing and became serious. We captured lots of photos of each other, and in some photos, we’re together.

“Let’s take another one,” he said and extended his arms upward to take a photo us. I then smiled and held at his neck to pose like I am about to kiss him. All I thought was it’s a serious picture, but he just suddenly leaned backwards that caused the kayak to flip upside down and made us fall onto the water!

I brushed my hair upwards and spit out some sea water that came in my mouth. The water here is brackish and it makes me feel my mouth uncomfortably. When I lifted my gaze to Chly, I saw his raw grin.

“The photo was actually good,” he said, maybe trying to lift up my mood.

Well, it should! I won’t let myself fall onto the water without getting ready just for something that did not turned out very well!

“Let me see it,” I said and went near him. But my blood even boiled when I saw how funny my face was in that picture. I am wincing while holding firmly on his neck as we fall! “What the fuck!”

“No, not this photo,” he said and laughed. “This,” he showed me another photo.

He was right. The photo was actually good. When we get back to the shore, I reviewed the pictures and I feel bad for myself. There are no photos that Chly looks bad. Even on those stolen picture, he looks really handsome! While me? There are a lot of photos that has my hilarious face on it!

What I look like on those photos seems like unable to be drawn, not even by the famous and skilled artists.

Whatever, at least I got a handsome husband, right?

    “How does it taste?” Chly asked while I am chewing the grilled bangus. He’s looking intently at me, or maybe on my mouth that’s currently chewing.“Hmm,” I just hummed because I couldn’t say a word. After I finished chewing, I took another slice of bangus and ate it.He really cooks so well. Without hard training in our company, I don’t think I would have this body. For sure, I will gain weight because honestly, I really couldn’t stop myself from eating the foods he cooked by himself.“I will really look ugly with this,” I stated as I take grilled pork from the plate.His brows furrowed. “Why?” he asked, confusion is visible in his tone.“Because I will get fat, and it’s because you cook yummy dishes!”I am not saying that being fat makes people look ugly. I am pertaining only to myself. I feel like being fat doesn’t suit me. I even became envious with those chubby and cute men and women on social media that still looks good with it, well; everyone really looks good with their own siz

    “Papà, please convince Mamà to bring me to Philippines, please,” I begged in front of my father while kneeling in both of my knees. I made my face sympathetic than it can be so I would convince him. “I don’t want to be alone here,” I added. “Princess, you won’t be alone,” he replied, not taking any of my shits. “You Tia and your cousin will be here with you.”I shook my head and pressed my eyes closed. When I opened it, big and round tear from each of my eye has fallen. When Papà saw it, I heard him sighed. From my blurry vision I saw him smiled bitterly as he covered his mouth with his fist.“Go to your room, I will try to talk with your Mamà about it,” he said and that made me jump on the inside.I just nodded and followed what he ordered. I went directly into my room but before I could even reach the door, Val called me. When I turned around, the first thing I saw was her sad face.“You will go with them?” I heard the sadness in her voice.Her words made me feel like I’ve been po

    I feel like I have been poured by a bucket of cold water with plenty of ice in it when I heard the man in a black suit went to us and delivered the news. I already know what will happen, but I can’t fully process it. I can’t accept the fact that it’s their end.“Kalia, you have to rest-”“How can I rest with this situation, Chly?!” I asked, frustrated. Because of too much anger, I even began to show my anger to Chly, which I immediately regret.He nodded slowly and smiled bitterly. I felt guilty for raising my voice at him. It’s not me who just lost my parents. He also lost his parents, but instead of focusing and preparing his parents’ funeral, he is here on my side. And it makes my guilt rose more.“Leave me here, Chly. I can handle myself,” I said as I stood up. Before I could even step to go away, he immediately held my wrist. When I looked at him, I saw him shook his head. “What?”“I won’t leave you,” he said with finality in his voice.I sighed. “You have to take care of your pa

    I couldn’t count how long I have been sitting in front of their tombs and eating my lunch. All I know is that, the ray of the sunlight already passed by the tree I am hiding to protect myself from the scorching heat of the sun.I just laughed when I realized that I am holding my breath as I look up. I don’t even know why I am doing that until I looked down again and noticed a tickle on my face. I groped that part and touched a liquid. That’s when it drowned on me that I’ve been shedding tears.I inhaled an air and pressed my lips together as I bring back my gaze to the tomb in front of me. My right hand spontaneously lifted and touched my father’s tomb. I suddenly remembered how hard he tried to stop himself from letting me go with them, but in the end, he still asked Mamà about it.I don’t have any regrets of going with them here in the Philippines. By it, I was still able to spend time with them. I wonder… if they didn’t bring me with them, how would I be? Will I be able to move on

    I stared at the pair of white sandals I am currently wearing for a moment before lifting my gaze to the view of my surroundings. Above me is a blue and clear sky. On both of my sides, there are people close to me, sitting and watching me while I stand here. And in front, few meters away from me, is the man of my dream, standing and staring at me in the way of how I wanted to be stared at.I saw his nose moved, maybe he sniffed. After that, his right hand lifted towards his eye. That’s when I realized he’s crying!I chuckled before finally starting to walk in a slow pace. All of my focus was only on my man. I can’t stop myself from feeling various emotions. I kind of feel tickled on the inside while I feel excitement. I want to cry, I want to laugh. I don’t know what to do anymore. But the only thing I can clearly say is… I am happy.I stopped when I am distant from him few meters away. He took me from my uncle who walked me down the aisle. And the moment he smiled on me while his eyes
