of their catastrophes

02

"Hoy, akala ko ba hanggang hapon pa kayo. Baka iniwan mo mga officers mo gagi lagot ka na naman." Mapang-asar na bungad ni Hyuck kay Mark.

He was taken aback when Mark kissed him hungrily. He's jealous.

Agad siyang umiwas dito, he just woke up from his power nap. He doesn't want Mark to have a reason to leave him. Tumakbo siya papunta sa comfort room niya at agad na nagsisipilyo.

Humahangos pa ang hininga dahil sa biglang sabik na halik ng kapareha niya. He's also sweaty as he forgot to turn on his fan. Gosh, bakit ba kung kailan siya bagong gising ganoon din ang dating ni Mark.

He was about to take off his shirt to change when the older embraced him. "I'm aware of your insecurities, but babe I'm not that petty." His baritone voice made the younger shiver.

"You still smell good though, no need to worry," pinatakan niya ng halik ang leeg ng binata.

"Let's shower together?"

Binuksan niya ang kaniyang cellphone at nagulat nang makita niyang it's already six in the evening. He slept for so many hours!

"Sige, pero magluluto ako ng adobo after ha." He responded as he take off his clothes completely.

Each other is a risk they both weren't ready to take, but still tried nonetheless.

"Nakakapagod pero at least tapos na, next year na ulit yung mga activities." Ang mahinang paghinga nito ay ramdam ni Hyuck, they are cuddling.

"Punta tayo sa Baguio?" he responded impulsively. Mark embraced him tightly before kissing him in the forehead. Bumangon sila para maghanda na.

Iisang bag lang ang dala nila dahil sigurado namang di naman sila magtatagal. Hyuck is the one who's fixing the things they need at baka dadaan nalang sila sa 7/11 para sa iilang necessities. Mark is busy booking them a room, well that's his ambag.

Even though Hyuck insisted on the idea, they both know well that he can't afford it impulsively.

One of the reasons why he also agreed to keep what they have a secret. Their worlds are just too far from each other.

His world screams perfection and Hyuck's doesn't. He's afraid that Mark's well-polished life will be damaged because of dirt like him. Their world colliding is impossible.

Yes, that's how low he thinks he is. Life did this to him.

Don't get Hyuck wrong, he wants to save too. Ayaw niya ding gastusan pa siya ni Mark kasi kahit siya nahihiya narin.

This is one of the inspirations for studying hard. He wants to be someone who deserves Mark.

Ayaw niyang dahil lang gusto siya ni Mark, gusto niyang gustuhin din siya ng mga taong nasa paligid ng binata. Kasi aminin man natin o sa hindi, other people's thoughts about us matters.

Mas malaki ang pressure sa kanya dahil ang boyfriend niya ay gusto ng lahat. Sometimes he would think about why do other people bother at this point like he won, they lose.

Every Time they'll celebrate something or in other words 'date'. Kailangang nasa malayo sila. Mark will always take him somewhere far, somewhere safe.

Gustuhin niya mang pumunta at gumala din sa Megamall ay hindi nila magawa. Megamall is known as tambayan especially after Christmas parties and in this point Hyuck is sure that marami ang makakakilala sa kanila if pupunta man sila roon.

They drove through Jollibee for additional food because for sure, the ride is long. They will leave Mark's car at the parking lot ng condo nito kasi they don't think he'll be able to drive from Pasig to Baguio.
