I tried designing some clothes, yet ended up scribbling some unimportant things. Days later, I went home since my dad asked for me, expecting him to open up about me going back to Paris.“Dad, I’m here.” Sinulyapan ko ang stepmother ko bago ako bumeso sa kanya.“We have some important news to tell you,” nangunot ang noo ko at naupo sa harapan nilang dalawa. “Hmm, I was thinking why did you ask me here, mukhang importante nga dad.” Mukha silang good mood, maya-maya ay may inabot si mommy na maliit na gift box kaya tinanggap ko ‘yon. “Nasa loob yung news.” Dahan-dahan kong binuksan yung box, ngunit halos kumabog ng malakas ang dibdib ko nang makita ang pregnancy test.“D-Don’t tell me—“ I covered my mouth when my mom’s eyes become teary-eyed.“Oh my gosh, congratulations!” Niyakap ko siya dahil matagal na nilang gusto ‘to.“Thank you anak.” Dahil doon ay sabay sabay kaming nag-dinner na tatlo.“Oh it’s four months now, mom? Hindi halata, you’re still sexy!” Natawa si mommy at kinikilig
“I’m sorry, are you sure you’re okay? Yung baby?” Inalalalayan niya ako tumayo kaya wala akong nasabi kaagad. “Are you not hurt?” He checked on me, his scent immediately scattered which I smelled instantly. “I’m okay, bakit ka nandito?” I asked. Huminga siya ng malalim at alanganin na sumulyap sa mansion, “My parents asked me to come here.” Then suddenly, it hit me. Baka pag-aari nila ang buong hacienda na ‘to, “Ah so you’re my parents visitor?” Tumango ako bilang sagot, he glanced at the rest house and glanced to his horse. “But are you sure you’re fine? How about the baby?” Nang tignan niya ang tyan ko ay nahihiya kong itinago ‘yon. “I’m okay, balik na ako sa loob.” Nagmamadali na sabi ko. He’s wearing a simple clothes, mukhang kumportable siya sa pants at shirt na suot niya. “Alright, ingat. Huwag ka maglalakad dito, you can walk in this lawn.” Turo niya sa kinatatayuan ko. “Okay.” “The horse is used to this path, since they always run here.” Tumango ako at pinag
“I scrolled back to our conversations, from text, to social media. It’s nothing like what you’ve said,” natahimik ako sa sinabi niya, pinaglaro ko ang kamay ko dahil hindi ko alam ang sasabihin. “Do you find me annoying? Am I always bothering you?” Nagtama ang mata namin, hindi ako makasagot, parang nalunok ko ang sarili kong dila kaya huminga na lang ako ng malalim. “Answer me.” He demanded kaya napapikit ako at huminga ng malalim, “What’s the point when you can’t remember?” Napatitig siya sa mismong mata ko, ang distansya namin ay isang metro pero parang sasabog ang puso ko sa tensyon sa pagitan naming dalawa, “I just don’t want it to be complicated. If you can’t remember then let it be, I don’t want to expect too much that you’ll want me after you forget me.” “Isa pa, wala naman talagang tayo.” “I’m trying my best to trust you, so just tell me the truth when I ask for it. I Hate it when someone lies to me.” Humakbang siya paatras at huminga ng malalim. “The fact th
“Hindi na lang ako sasama.” Bulong na sabi ko, “Huh? You should come. Walang maiiwan.” Their eldest said.“Tara na,” wala akong choice kundi nahihiya na lumapit kay Eros.“H-Hindi ako marunong sumakay,” bulong na sabi ko, sinulyapan niya ako bago siya huminga ng malalim at bumaba ng kabayo niya.May nilagay siyang isang apakan na maabot ko, bago siya muling sumakay sa kabayo at tumingin sa akin, inilahad niya ang kamay. “In a count of 3, hop in.” He said, so while he’s holding my hand bumwelo ako para makasakay.“One.. Two.. Three!” Tumalon ako pero nahirapan ako makasakay sa likod niya kaya ngumuso ako, “Again.” Strikto na sabi niya.“Just hop in, don’t make me count.” He said and tried to lift my weight as I jumped.Nang makasakay ay ayoko pa sanang kumapit sa kanya pero nagsalita ang kuya niya, “If you don’t wanna fall, hold onto him.” “Opo.” “Mr. Fuentabella sure ka po walang magagalit ah.” Paninigurado ni Espi bago humawak sa bewang nito.“Just call me kuya, malilito mga kapati
“I said, first, you posted a story and it made me think that I’m responsible for it. Your words don’t match what others think, my parents are very sensitive and conscious when it comes to dating.” He said in a serious tone which made me realize that he was already confused and I made him feel more perplexed. He stared, “I’m expecting you to at least tell me facts, yet you always lied. You made fun of me,” he pushed the insides of his cheek and gasped for air as if the oxygen was running out. Why am I doing that though? “I guess I don’t like the idea that you’ll not believe me and chose to expect it already,” mahinang sabi ko. “Why would you feel that way?” Naitikom ko ang bibig at umiwas tingin. “I’m that type of person, I don’t accept negative thoughts and feelings, I don’t like entertaining them.” Natigilan siya at napatitig sa mukha ko, matagal bago siya nakasagot. “Okay.” He gave up arguing with me, but then later on he nudged me using his elbow, “What?” I gave him an
After that we visited the other parts of their farm, and he let me pick some apples and strawberries. After that, we decided to eat in front of their tree house. Like a picnic style. Pagkaupo sa inilatag ay humiga ako dahil inilalabas pa lang ang mga pagkain, “Pagod ka na?” Espi asked. “Hmm,” I gave her a nod and sat when the food was ready to serve. I stared at the food and it was all healthy, caesar salad, his favorite. Some pasta, Pizza that his mother made. Kumain na rin kami habang sila ay nagd-daldalan sa mga bagay bagay habang ako ay nanatiling nakikinig. “Pero what do you think? Parang ang unfair sa ibang namamasukan na hamak na mas maraming ginagawa pero ganoon yung sweldo?” they all shared their thoughts. “Well, for them mataas na ‘yon and that’s what they deserve, kung mas mataas na yung kanila compare to the higher ups, I mean mas mataas ang position sa kanila, hindi na nila hahangaring umangat pa.” Napalabi ako dahil may punto. “As long as walang nagr-reklamo sa
Natulala ako doon, “When did you got this file? May date ba?” tanong ko. Nagtaka man siya ay tinignan niya ang buong detalye ng footage.“Matagal na,” turo niya sa date.“It’s my mom’s case,” seryosong sabi ko na ikinatigil niya.“Your mom’s?” mabilis niyang isinarado ang laptop at alanganin na tinitigan ako.“Hindi mo na dapat pinanood,” nakokonsensyang sabi niya.Lumabi ako at huminga ng malalim, “Hindi mo pinanood sa akin noon, you must have a reason.”“I’m sorry,” natigil ako nang yumakap siya, bigla ay parang gusto ko maiyak.“I’m sorry, Mayi.”Nang bahagya siyang lumayo ay napatitig ako sa apologetic face niya, ang asul niyang mata ay hindi nakaligtas sa akin.Inilapit ko ang mukha at dinampian siya sa labi, nagulat naman siya ngunit matipid akong ngumiti. “I liked you first, do you know that?” Napalunok siya at nanatili sa pwesto bago matipid na umiling, nasulyapan niya ang labi ko bago ako muling tinitigan sa mata.“Because I feel that I fell for you first,” he said and I was
Napatingin siya sa daliri ko, pigil hiningang napatingin sa taas ng cabin bago lumingon sa magkabilang gilid at halos pigilin ko ang sariling tumili nang sapuin niya ang pisngi ko at halikan.Pigil ngisi akong hinayaan siya na halikan ako na para bang wala ng bukas, nang pumagitna siya sa hita ko ay awtomatiko kong tinakpan ang bibig nang sandaling ipasok niya ang palad sa shorts ko.Nahihiya akong umiwas tingin nang maramdaman ang sariling kabasaan ko mula sa ibaba, his fingers played with my wetness as he watched me stopped myself from making a sound.His serious face instantly changed when I bit my lips hard, a smirk plastered on his lips as he try to enter a finger.“Don’t cúm unless I say so,” he whispered and watched me having difficulty of breathing as he goes fast.“E-Eros,” hirap na hirap kong tawag sa pangalan niya, he went faster and I stopped myself from wetting myself from cúmming on his fingers.“A-Ah—” He instantly covered my mouth with his palm when I burst out, sinama
