The Substitute Bride

Chapter 16

Fierrha Lourice

Everything is going smoothly. A contented and sincere smile is plastered on my face. Hay, things are getting better, our relationship is getting better. Para bang isang pangarap na naman ang aking natupad.

Kahit na tambak ako ng trabaho ay hindi mapawi ang ngiting nasa mga labi ko. I am just checking the restaurant's inventory. So far, everything is fine. Tumataas ang sales ng negosyo ko at mas nakikilala pa ito ng mga tao.

I heard a knock at the back of my door. “Come in” I said while reviewing the files. Abala ako sa pag-aproba ng mga gagawing pakulo ng aking restaurant.

“Ehem” Someone cleared his throat.

Agad akong napatayo dahil sa bultong bumungad sa akin. “I—Kumain ka na ba? Do you want me to cook for you?” Agad kong isinalansan sa isang tabi ang mga papeles na nakakalat sa table. Natatarantang inayos ko ang magulo kong lamesa.

Isang kamay naman ang pumigil sa akin. “You don't need to be pressured, babe. I'm the one who should ask if you already ate. But the looks of it, I know you haven't. Can cook in your kitchen?”

Parang tumigil ang mundo ko sa sinabi nya. Self, wag kang kiligin! “Uhm don't bother yourself. Sa bahay ka na lang magluto for our dinner. For now, let my staffs to serve us, alright?” He nod at me at tsaka nya ako inalalayan palabas ng aking opisina.

PAGKATAPOS naming kumain ay bigla na lang nya akong hinila palabas ng restau at tsaka ako isinakay sa kotse nya.

“Where are we going? Why did you take me with you?” Naguguluhang tanong ko sa kanya.

“I'll bring you with me in the office” Parang belewala nya lang na sagot. Agad namang nanlaki ang dalawang mata ko.

“P—Pero Ryker! I still have a ton of works to do! Kailangan ko pa ring i-review ang financial status namin. I also need to talk to our suppliers!”

He glanced at me. He just glanced at me! “Don't worry about it. I'll ask my people to arrange those things” Wala pa rin syang ibang ekspresyon maliban sa boredom. Parang bored na bored sya sa pinag-uusapan namin.

“Bakit mo pa kasi ako isasama?” Nagmamaktol na Sabi ko.

Mabilis nyang pinisil ang ilong ko at tsaka muling tumuon sa pagmamaneho. “You look adorable while you're acting like a kid...” He paused “I'll bring you with me to have a piece of mind. Damn! Kung pwede nga lang na ibulsa kita”

Agad naman akong namula dahil sa mga salitang binitawan nya. Oh gosh! He made my heart skip a beat! Such a sweet mouth he got.

His supposedly work didn't happen. We just ended up dancing in an ancient dance with an ancient background music.

Now, we're laying on the bed in the bedroom inside his office. Nakaunan ako sa isang braso nya habang ang isang braso pa nya ay nakayakap sa akin.

“Scam ka” I blurted out. I earned a chuckle from him that's why I pinched him that made him stop.

“Sabi mo dadalhin mo ko dito para magka-peace of mind ka at magawa ng maayos ang trabaho mo, yon pala ako ang tatrabahuhin mo!”  Dugtong ko pa.

This time tumawa na talaga sya ng malakas. Luh! Happy ang loko! He even pulled me closer and hug me tighter. Parang anaconda lang kung makalingkis.

“It's your fault, baby” Nakangising paninisi nito sa akin.

I arched my brow. “At ako pa talaga ang sinisi mo? Ikaw dyan ang sisid ng sisid! Diver ka ba?!” I rolled my eyes afterwards. Ka-highblood! Ako pa talaga ang sinisi!

“It's your fault because you're so irresistable. And baby, if being diver means diving to see your pearl, I'm willing to switch in the profession” He playfully said. Smooth ang galawan!

“Pervert ka talaga!” Isang hampas pa ang iginawad ko sa kanya pero tinawanan lang ako.

“Sige tawa pa!” Nang hindi sya tumigil sa pagtawa ay kinurot ko naman sya ng kinurot. Accidentally, I pinched his nipple.

His eyes darken. He even stop laughing. He look at me with full of desire. In a very quick move, he crashed his lips into mine.

“Damn baby, you just fvcking turn me on! Now be prepared cause I'll be your diver for the night”
