FIFTEEN

"Shinichi," Mahinang tawag ko sa kanya. I am still on our bed, lazing rolling myself from side to side. I am sore from what we did last night. I fell asleep after I felt his warm embrace but woke up later before dawn and caught his hands doing magnificent things to me again.

To cut the short story much short, we did it again. And again. And again. And again.

"Hey, lazy," he greeted me with a wide smile. Kasalukuyan niyang inaayos ang in-order na pagkain sa maliit na lamesa.

"My legs feels numb,” nahihiya kong sambit.

"As what I expected,” he said, he looks boyish this morning as I catch the glint of amusement in his eyes. “Don't worry, I'll lift you," natatawa niyang sambit. Hinagisan ko siya ng unan na nasalo naman niya agad.

“I am worried. Hindi ako nakapagtext kay Papa kagabi,” problemado kong sabi.

“I texted him last night while you’re changing,” napabuntong-hininga ako sa binahagi niya. But if my Father asks what exactly happened, ano ang isasagot ko? What happened between us is just too private, he might gonna kill me the moment he knows that I surrendered my V-card to my boyfriend – boyfriend na hindi pa naman niya talaga inaaprubahan.

"You’re worrying too much," he step close to me and plant kisses on my forehead, "he’s the one who told me where you are, you’re not answering his calls and texts so he assumed that you were there.” Tumango-tango ako, I am not surprise kung iyon ang naisip niya. Since iyon naman ang madalas kong ginagawa. “Come on,” yaya niya’t binuhat na ako. Iniangkla ko ang aking kamay sa palibot ng kanyang leeg. He still smells nice.

He caught me staring at him and he rubs his nose against mine in response and drops a quick kiss on me.

“Let’s make this fast so I can drive you home.”

"Bakit nga pala hindi mo sinasagot ang mga tawag, texts at e-mails ko?" Tanong ko sa kanya nang makapasok na kami ng kotse. Suot-suot na namin ang damit na kahit papaano’y natuyo naman. Hindi siya agad sumagot bagkus ay kinamot ang ulo na para bang nahihiya.

"It’s a very lame reason," sambit niya. Humalukipkip ako’t humarap sa kanya, “added that were busy from the last 36 hours on our stay there.”

“What’s your lame reason?” tanong ko, puno nang kuryosidad.

“I accidentally drop my charger, the thing divided into two, my phone which on that time ay 2 percent na lang ay hindi ko na-charge. I would normally ask our secretary to buy a new one but like what I said, things were hectic back there. So, I am sorry,” hininto niya ang kotse sa gilid ng kalsada upang makaharap sa’kin, “I am sorry if I made you worried,” he said in his sincere tone.

“Hindi ka nambabae?” umiling siya, “ako lang talaga?” tumango siya, “hindi mo talaga ‘ko niloloko?” tumango siya, “wala ‘kong babalian ng buto?” bigla siyang napangiti ngunit tumangong muli. “Siguraduhin mo lang, Shinichi. Siguraduhin mo lang,” puno nang pagbabanta kong sabi.

“Don’t you trust me?” bumusangot siya sa harap ko, natawa naman ako’t inilayo ang mukha niya sa’kin.

“Of course, I do trust you. I just need an assurance.”

“You won’t regret us,” he vowed. Mas lalong lumambot ang puso ko sa kanya.

“I love you,” tanging nasabi ko na lamang. He can be too sweet, minsan hindi ko na alam kung paano siya sasagutin.
