"Ang pormal naman ni Mayor," Humalakhak si Alverry.

"It's probably his secretary."

"Puwede rin siya 'yan."

"It's not him. Do you think may panahon pa iyong mag tipa ng email letter? I doubt it."

"Hmm," Kinuha niya ang baso sa gilid at sumimsim doon saka prenteng umupo sa aking couch.

Narito kami sa apartment ngayon. Kakauwi ko lang galing trabaho at nakisuyo akong i open niya ang email ko habang nagbibihis ako. Hinatid ako ni Guideon kanina at sandali kaming nag make out. Kahit naman wala pang nangyayari sa amin dahil nga nirerespeto niya ang desisyon ko at sadyang tradisyunal ako, naghahalikan naman kami.

Minsan, hindi ko siya masisi kung sobrang tigang niya. Naiintindihan kong may pangangailangan siya at ganoon din naman ako kaya lang, kung makakapaghintay, maghintay.

Sometimes, he humps his body on me and I let him. He may have touched me from different erogenous zones, as what I've learned from College and other novels, but I always control myself and stop him. Even though sometimes it's so hard to stop.

My friends couldn't believe it at first because they cannot believe that we can keep our love alive without physical and sexual involvement and exploration.

"Ano 'yon? Potek, sa kamay niya lang siya rumaraos? Ingat ka at baka may pa palang nirarausan 'yan!" Si Mikasa.

Natawa kami sa kanya. Guideon would never do that. Takot na lang non sa akin.

Kinuha ko ang laptop mula kay Alverry at pinagmasdan ang email ni Rivan.

Nagtipa ako ng response sa kanya at sinigurong pormal, maiksi, at propesyunal iyon. Bukas, daraan ako sa Atienza Life Foundation sa Ermita para i process na ang lahat ng kailangang asikasuhin.

"Ngayong naaprubahan na 'yan, tiyak na madalas na kayong magkikita."

"Hindi ko siya kailangang kitain o kausapin palagi."

"Pero isa siya sa private sponsor, hindi ba? At tiyak, pag-uusapan 'yan ng board. Isa pa, alkalde siya ng siyudad, may karapatan siyang malaman kung anong nangyayari sa pinamamahalaan niya."

Umirap ako. "Alam mo, ikaw siguro talaga ang campaign manager niya no?"

"Shipper niyo pa rin hanggang ngayon."
