Chapter 3 - Her First

Note: This is a warning note for innocents❗

Jai's POV

I'M COOKING Sinigang right now. Lahat may ginagawa at halos 6 PM na din, so I volunteered myself to be the cook this evening. Hindi naman ako katulad ng chef namin n'on na hahayaang masunog ang bahay.

Sumandok ako ng sabaw saka sinalin ito sa kutsara ko para tikman. Hmm, great. Sana magustuhan nila. Madalang na lang akong makapagluto ng ganito dahil sa kulang lagi ang ingredients. Unlike here where all the ingredients you'll need are 100% complete.

"Marunong kang magluto?"

I rolled my eyes, isn't obvious? I turn around to nod to the woman who look younger than me. She's below 18, I think? Ang aga naman ata niyang magtrabaho? Imbis na maawa at macurious lalo ay isinalin ko na lang ang ulam sa isang malaking lalagyan.

Kumuha ako ng isang bowl na agad ko ding nahanap sa isa sa mga cabinet sa itaas. Hindi ko hilig ang humingi ng tulong kaya hangga't maaari ay ginagawa ko ang lahat nang mag-isa.

Kumuha ako ng sabaw, gulay at isang karne, this will perfectly suit my dinner. Ang tagal ko na ding hindi nakakahigop ng sabaw.

"There, eat well," I said, pointing my index finger to the Sinigang.

Naglakad ako palabas ng kusina saka dumiretso sa kwartong tinutuluyan ko. Bawat pagliko namin kanina ng babae pababa dito ay kinabisado ko. I'm a cum laude for nothing if a simple direction baffles me. Habang naglalakad ay hinihigop ko ang sabaw. Tamang-tama para mainitan ang kalamnan ko.

Isinara ko ang pinto ng kwarto at umupo sa kama. Inalis ko muna ang white rubber shoes na suot ko din kahapon. Hindi man lang ako nakauwi dahil hindi ako nakapagpaalam. As if I'm going to talk to that b.start again, tsk.

Nang maubos ang sabaw ay sumandal ako sa headboard ng kama at nakinig sa musika. I started singing along with the lyrics of the song, Rose-Colored Boy, by my favorite band, Paramore.

♪ Just let me cry
A little bit longer
I ain't no smile
If I don't want to ♪

I could say that I'm not good but also not bad in singing. Singing is one of my family's way of bonding. If dad and mom weren't busy, we'll surely sing all day and laugh. I sighed. I miss them so much.

Pinatay ko na ang music at baka kung ano pa ang maalala ko, jeez. Tumayo ako at nag-isip ng gagawin, what if umuwi muna ako ngayon? It's 6:30 PM. Wala na akong damit dito bukod sa uniform na 'to at sa damit ko kahapon. Should I take the risk to ask that man just to go out in here? I guess it's a yes.

Nagmadali akong bumaba. Dumidilil na at marunong din naman akong matakot tuwing naglalakad mag-isa.

Bumalik ako sa kusina at hinugasan ang bowl. Wala ng laman ang kaldero na pinaglutuan ko kanina, do they like how it taste?

I wiped the bowl that I used using a clean white towel and put it back to where I got it. I opened the faucet again to wash my hands. I'm singing the Happy Birthday song in my mind not long enough when someone spoke at my back. Cr.p, lahat ba ng tao dito ay sumusulpot na lang talaga basta-basta?

"Oh, hi there."

That voice. Pwede na akong makauwi at magpaalam muna sa kanya, nice. Nakangiti akong humarap na pinagsisihan ko din kaagad. Sh.t.

He was trapping me using his both arms. His distance are just inches away from me. Sh.t again. Nahigit ko ang hininga ko nang lumapit pa siya lalo. Paano niya nagawang makalapit sa'kin nang ganito kabilis nang hindi ko namamalayan? Is he a superhero named Flash? D.mn it. Heto na naman ako't napapamura, argh!

He leaned and I move my head backwards. He leaned, I move backwards, he leaned, I move! Jeez, what's his problem?!

Out of nowhere, he laughed. I blinked countless times because of disbelief. I can't believe what I'm seeing. How could he look like an angel by simply laughing?

Hindi ko mapigilang mapatitig sa kaniya. His dark grey eyes na unti-unting hinihigop ang lakas ko, they looked familiar. Bakit pakiramdam ko ay nakita at natitigan ko na ang mga matang 'yan noon?

"You're so beautiful," sabi niya na ikinalaki ng mga mata ko. I didn't relealize that he's staring at me too.

"Get away from me," I want to push him but my voice is a traitor. I sound terrible.

He lift his right palm to touch my cheeks. Mariin akong napapikit sa hindi malamang dahilan. I never felt a man's touch for years. Only my dad can get this close to me. His thumb caress my face slowly. His touch felt strange but unbelievably calming.

"I want to kiss you," he whispered to my ear, making me open my eyes in shock.

Kagaya kaninang umaga ay natauhan ako at nagbalak na magpumiglas. Ngunit hindi pa dumadampi sa balikat niya ang dalawang kamay ko para maitulak siya ay nahuli na niya ang mga ito. He's really Flash, isn't he?

"Let me go! Go away—"

His soft lips covered mine. H.ck, this is my first kiss and I can't move! I blinked, trying to process what's happening but my mind went blank.

His lip slowly moves, teasing me. If this is a challenge of him, then I won't let myself to be the loser. This is my first kiss after all, I won't let him to ruin it.

I closed my eyes and opened my mouth. I smirked while his lips is still on mine. Mukhang natigilan siya sa ginawa ko. I hold his nape to pull him closer. His hand held my back to support me from leaning in the sink.

A whimper escape my mouth when his tongue entered my mouth. Napahigpit ang paghawak ko sa batok niya nang maramdaman ang palad niya sa dibdib ko. Paano nangyaring hinahawakan na niya ang dibdib kong binastos niya lang kanina?

I bit his lower lip which made him moan. He taste like a cool mint and it turned me on even more. Napatingala ako at napahawak sa buhok niya. He kissed my neck. He sucked my skin and sipped it. What the?

"Hey! That would leave a mark!"

He stopped and stood in front of me. Hindi pa  niya inaalis ang kamay niyang nakayakap sa likuran ko dahilan para mamagitan pa rin ang napakaliit na distansiya saming dalawa. Pakiramdam ko ay namula ang mga pisngi ko sa sandaling naisip ko ang nangyari.

"It won't leave a mark, thanks for stopping me, sweetheart," he said sarcastically with a mocking smile on his face. I can't help to roll my eyes.

"Stop calling me sweetheart," I said, sharply.

"What should I call you then? Babe? Baby? Honeybunch? Mine?–"

"Just call me my name! I'm Jai, j.rk!"

So this is a conversation right? Hindi ako makapaniwalang nagagawa naming mag-usap pagkatapos ng nangyari. I don't even want to think of it again, hell! I could still feel myself heating up for Pete's sake!

"So that's your way of introducing yourself to your boss, right? It's kinda unique and no worries, I'll call you Jai," he assured me even though I'm keeping my gaze busy, away from his very attractive face– I mean annoying.

"I'm Drake, your first kiss," he said and I frowned.

Lumabas siya ng kusina habang natatawa't nakangiti pa. Tell me, what just happened? Paano niya nalamang first kiss ko 'yon?
