Possessive Obsession [UNEDITED]

Chapter 19

“Yeah, what is it?” Mukhang nailang si Alex. I chuckled. It's rare to find him awkward because his skull is thick.

“Can you start using 'po' and 'opo'? You sound like you're talking to someone your age, that's not good.” Nakagat ko ang labi para pigilan matawa nang makitang namula ang mga tenga ni Alex dahil sa sinabi ni Gustav. He's embarrassed. This is epic. Minsan lang makaramdam ng hiya ang kapatid ko and it's amusing to see him all embarrassed because of my baby.

“O-Okay... po.” I throatily laugh at the way he said it. Tinapik ako ni Gustav at tiningnan naman ako ng masama ni Alexius.

“That's more nicer to hear. We should go snorkeling later, if the two of you want to.” Alexius and I both yelled 'Yes' at what he said. We're both excited. I glance at Gustav and I caught him staring at me. I grinned at him and winked before puckering my lips towards him. He rolled his eyes and we both chuckled.

———

Snorkeling is fun, I wanted to enjoy my time alone with my baby but Alexius is all over me.

“Can you get off? I swear I will drown you if you don't get off me.” Naiinis kong banta sakanya but he just shook his head and stare at Gustav who's away from us. Medyo malayo na ang pwesto niya saamin, magkasama kami kanina pero ang gaslaw ni Alexius sa tabi ko kaya siguro siya lumayo-layo. I sighed and glared at Alexius.

“Why are you staring at him so much? Can't believe that I catch a big beautiful fish?” Umiling si Alexius sa sinabi ko. Nakatitig pa rin siya kay Gustav na mukhang wala sa sarili. I was about to call him but he dived into the sea water. 

“Kuya, he look so familiar, I swear I've seen him somewhere before.” Nilingon ko si Alexius nang sabihin niya iyon. Nakayuko ang ulo niya kaya alam kong may inaalala siya.

“Where?” I curiously asked.

“I dunno, can't remember.” I rolled my eyes at what he said.

“Don't fool me, I know you remember, you're not called genius for nothing.” Why is he lying to me? He doesn't often lie to me, he actually always tell me everything he knows. Gustav and Alexius is acting weird since earlier and it's frustrating me. Kanina pa ako kinakabahan sa hindi ko malaman na dahilan. Wala naman masamang nangyari pero bakit nakakaramdam ako ng kaba? This is so weird.

“I can't believe you swing that way, Kuya. Last time I saw you, you were playing carnal games with a lot of women.” I frowned at him. Iniba niya bigla ang usapan. I sighed and moved myself away from him.

“I'm not gay, I just love that guy.” Turo ko kay Gustav na umahon na. Tinapik ko si Alexius bago lumangoy palapit sa small yacht na naghatid saamin sa gitna ng dagat. Umahon na rin ako at hinubad ang mga suot kong snorkeling gear bago nilapitan si Gustav na nagpupunas ng twalya sa ulo.

I grabbed his hands with the towel at ako na ang nagpunas sa buhok niya. He looked at me when I finished drying his hair. Inabutan niya rin ako ng towel.

“Is everything okay?” Pasimpleng tanong ko. Gustav smiled at me and nod.

“Hmm, why did you leave your brother alone?” Sinulyapan niya si Alexius pero hindi na namin ito makita. He's probably under the water.

“He's an athlete, he can take care of himself don't mind him.” I gave him a warm smile and embraced him. “Baby, I don't feel so good.” Pag amin ko. He tried to look at me but I embraced him tightly.

“Why? Are you sick?” I shook my head at his question.

“Not really, I just feel nervous, I don't know why.” Kumawala siya sa yakap ko at kinunutan ako ng noo.

“Maybe it's the cold, should we go back to the cabin?” Umiling ako at lumingon sa langit. Malapit na lumubog ang araw.

“The sunset is coming, we can take a shower again, get dressed and watch the sunset together. You like sunrise and sunset, right?” Alok ko. Ngumiti siya at tumango.

Ganon nga ang ginawa namin. Naligo kami sa bathroom na mayroon ang small yacht na inarkilan namin at nag bihis. Pagkatapos ay sabay kaming umakyat sa bow deck para panuorin ang papalubog na araw.

Umahon na rin si Alexius sa dagat at mukhang mag babanlaw na. I ignored him and just followed Gustav who walk towards the deck railings.

I smiled and embraced him from behind. We waited for the sun to set with a smile. It feels peaceful for a moment.

“I usually compare people to a sunset,” Mahina ang boses na ani ni Gustav. I glance at his face and he has a small smile on his face. “A sunset is not a rare commodity, they come and go every night.” Nilingon niya ako.

“But when you came, I was hoping that you aren't one of the sun sets that will come and go.” I couldn't entirely understand what he's trying to say but I assumed it that he doesn't want me to go. I grinned at him and captured his lips before saying the words I badly wanted to tell him.

“Baby, I love you, I love you so much.” My heart is beating so fast I think I won't hear it if he says something. Magkahalong kaba at excitement ang nararamdam ko sa magiging sagot niya. “I don't know how to properly confessed my love for you, baby, I think I just said it so dry and lame but I really mean it.”

I gulped and waited for him to react to what I just said. I watched as he stared at my eyes for a second before faintly smiling. Gusto kong mapakunot ng noo dahil walang nagbago sa mga mata niya. The way he's looking at me, parang inaasahan niya nang sasabihin ko iyon. He looked back at the sunset and took a deep sigh.

“The sunset is beautiful, isn't it?” Mahinahon ang boses niyang sabi habang nakatingin pa rin sa papalubog na araw.

Natulala ako sa sinabi niya. My excitement died down and I felt nothing but confusion.

Where the hell did I fucking go wrong?
