Tales of Tales

Rain/Phayu

Permanent black marker on the lines and boundaries.

"This looks good but how good?"

I smiled and secretly side-eyed p' Phayu who stands beside me studying the last plate I made.

I bite my lower lip to hide the excitement I feel.

And back to work.

He is silently checking the plates.

"Okay." He said.

"Just okay?" I asked.

"I am not your professor. And I think what you did is okay. You are still a freshman You'll learn more." He said.

I just nod my head. Without looking at him.

"Are you not gonna ask me where I came from?" He asked.

I stopped my work and looked at him.

Shit!
My whole system breaks down and I am melting.
He looks damn like a demigod in his racing uniform.

I gulped to hide my adoration.

He moved closer to me.

"You came from a race?" I asked.

He smiled and nod his head.

"Did you win?" I asked.

He shook his head.
"Noone beats Prepai." He said.

I sulked.

He laughed.

"I don't know you're interested in racing" he said.
He placed his hands on my waist and pulled me closer.

"I am nug but you are in it you should leg me watch." I said.

"Rain" he said his face get closer forehead to forehead.

Shit!

He teases me so much.
These hugs.
Touches.
Just kiss me p'.

Please kiss me.

Damn he won't!
He is just teasing me.

I looked at his eyes. They are closed.

I moved my body.
He stood still.
I turned my back on him.

"I have to finish this" I said.

"In a rush. It's Saturday." He said.
He still holds my waist.
I wanna take it off.
But I don't want to be detached from him.
I wanted his touch.

"You're the one who told me. To finish what j can do today." I said.

He then move on my side.
One hand still on my waist. Like hugging me with one hand.

"The final plate." He said.
"Okay I'll leave you with this." He said.
"I'll check on it later." He whispered.

His breath gave me shivers.
But he moved away.

Back on my work.
Time passed again.
Without me noticing it.

"Rain lunch is ready." He said.

He stood beside me our shoulders pressed together. The space is wide but he chose to be too close.
And i am not against it.

"Almost done" he said.
"Let's eat first" he whispered in my ear.
I moved away a bit.

I put my pen down.
He moved and I followed him to the kitchen.

"Whe4 is p' Saifah?" I asked.

"He left when I returned." P' Phayu answered

Table is prepared for lunch
"I didn't cook. I ordered food." He confessed.

I smiled at him.
He just looked at me.

I am not a psychic but I know whe someone stares at me.

I looked up.
And meet his eyes.

"P' eat na" I said.

"Why you get more cute and adorable each day". He said softly.

"P' you're hungry." I said.

He wiped the side of my lips with his thumb and put in his mouth.

Shit why don't you just kiss me if you wanna taste it! My brain shouted.

"Let's eat after your work I'll send you home. But you'll use your car I'll use my bike." He said.

I nod my head.

After giving me all these feelings sending me home!
Without doing anything?
My heart cried for desperation.

"Don't sulk na. Mae asked me to send duou home after you finish your work." He said.

I nod my head.

After we eat he send me back to my work.
And I finished.

Why do I feel like I am saying goodbye to the place as I roll the plates and put it in their case.

Why do I feel like saying goodbye yo the guest room.

All my things are beside me inside the car.
Driving home
Following the bike before me.
P' Phayu.

Mae opened the door and gate for us
I went to my room.

Mae and p' Phayu talked for a while. Then p' Phayu came to mg room.

"I am nof gonna bring you to my home anymore na." He said.
"I won't force you to come with me to garage also."
He said.

"You have made big improvements. You don't need a tutor anymore." He said.

"Bug if you need help. Message me please." He said.

He kisses my forehead.

"Good bye Rain". He said.

I am shocked
Stunned and glued sitting on mg bed.
