dusk beneath the city lights | Buenvenidez Series #4 [COMPLETED]

"I can't choose a place. Ikaw nalang ang mamili.."

Iniabot ko kay Caly ang iPad ko habang nakaupo ako sa tabi niya at nakahiga naman siya sa kama. His head is resting on the back of his arms while his eyes are still closed. Mukhang inaantok pa siya pero heto ako at ginugulo siya dahil hindi ako makapili.

"Where do you wanna goooo?" I poked his bust.

He moved a bit. "I want something we haven't done yet together..." he said in a very playtone tone.

Tiim bagang akong sumulyap sa kanya para hilahin ang buhok niya. He groaned and opened his eyes. He glared at me for a bit and eventually pouted.

"Your mind is kinda dirty," He uttered.

Umirap ako sa kanya, "No. You are. I am asking a wholesome question here. Saan mo gustong pumunta?" Pagtatranslate ko pa sa Filipino.

"No sé," Aniya.

"Ha?"

He breathed heavily and rose up from bed. Sumandal siya sa headboard saka humalukipkip. Nanatili ang tingin ko sa kanya. Hindi ba nadadala sa tingin 'to?

"En cualquier lugar," He smirked.

Lalo ko siyang sinamaan ng tingin nang marealize na ginagamitan niya na ako ng ibang language dito.

"Hijo de puta. Tigilan mo ako, Calypso. Hindi ako nakikipagbiruan sa'yo." Banta ko sa kanya.

Humalakhak siya at lalong ngumuso bago ako hinigit papalapit sa kanya. Napasandal tuloy ako sa dibdib niya habang ang isang kamay ay nakapulupot sa bewang ko at ang isa naman ay hawak na ang iPad ngayon.

He manipulated it with his one hand. Nagpunta siya sa maps at itinurn 'yon sa satelite view. He slowly zoomed it in to see our current location and then he went to North and pointed out a large piece of land.

"This is one of the properties under my name..." he shared.

"So you're bragging now, Mr. Rich kid?" Sulyap ko sa kanya.

Sumimangot siya at umirap bago umiling.

"We can go there via aircraft if you want. It's near the sea too so you can see a larger view of the coast from here.." He pointed it out.

It's almost around Pangasinan.. or parang Pangasinan na nga. Kita nga rin ang coast sa land na tinuro niya.

"That's yours?" I asked.

He nodded. "The land was named after me by my mother.."

My lips parted. They're the richest of rich for all I know but I am still surprised to hear this from him. Alam ko naman na hindi niya pinagmamayabang ang bagay na 'yon but if it was my land, I'd really brag about it. Lalo na kung nakapangalan pa sa akin katulad ng sinabi niya.

"And how are you going to land there? May runway?" I asked.

Tumango siya. "A half kilometer runway.."

"That was huge..."

"It is. So... are you up? Or you want to go somewhere else?" He asked.

Umiling ako at ngumiti sa kanya bago lumapit para dampian ng halik ang pisngi niya. I could see how his lips formed into a smile because of it.

Just like what he wanted, we decided to have a date while visiting his own land. We first went to their airport to get the aircraft there. Hinintay ko pa siya dahil masyadong maraming protocol ang kinakailangan bago pa kami makasakay.

He guided me inside the aircraft which can accomodate only four people. Pinagsuot niya ako ng headset at sinugurado niya rin na nakasuot ang seatbelts ko. From there, he started with some technical stuffs.
