Honest Goodbye [COMPLETED] #Wattys2020

Chapter 19

Chapter 19

Nakaupo kami ngayon ni Mat sa mesa na may nakapatong na isang Jar at nasa ibaba naman ang mga bag ng mga trabahador.

I saw him grinned. "Are you surprised?"

My eyes rolled as he asked that question. "Hindi pa ba halata?" he tittered. "You came here with no explanation, ta's sa iba ko pa malalaman na magtatrabaho ka na pala rito? What do you expect me to react?"

"I wasn't expecting this,"

I opened my mouth to talk that made him pause, "What?" masama pa rin ang tingin ko sa kaniya ngayon kaya lalo siyang natawa. He find this amusing, naiinis ako lalo. "Tawa pa."

"Coming here was unexpected, or should I say, working here." he even lift his two hands and showed me a connotation sign saying 'working here'.

There's unfamiliar presence slowly reaching us. Mat and I leaned—Archt. Ara has a smile on his face as she walks towards us. She removed her eyes on me and smiled at Mat. "Hi! Are you the new hired engineer?"

Hindi ba obvious?

Mat got up from his chair and extended his hand to her, "Yes, Mateus Salvadera." they have smile on their faces.

Nakaka-out of place naman pala ang pagpapa-kilala nilang dalawa. Archt. Ara hadn't introduced herself formally to me. She always simply smiles.

Inabot na rin niya ang kaniyang kamay. Nagkamayan na sila at baka puwede na nilang ipaghiwalay ang kamay nila?

After that long shaking hands happened, umupo na si Mat at si Archt. Ara ay naglakad na papalayo. "Is she pretty?"

"No one's ugly," he replied and click the pen he's holding. "Why?"

"Wala lang, you seemed amazed by her." walang gana kong sambit. He sighed and held my hands that are on my lap.

"Amazed by her?" tuluyan niya nang inabot ang kamay ko. He quite tightened his hands as he grasped mine. "Never."

Heat gushes around my face, I don't know if I'm blushing but I hope I'm not. "Sus." I still act like I'm mad.

He lift my hand he's holding. His soft lips touched the back of it.

Ini-angat niya ang tingin niya sa akin, our eyes met and his smiles in his lips, and even his eyes are sparkling. Gosh! Lalo yata akong tinamaan sa kaniya.

He left me sitting on my seat and went to our workers' job. Sinusulyapan ko siya mula rito, mukhang chine-check niya ang sukat ng mga nagagawa ng mga trabahador dahil hawak niya ang plan ng building. He looks so serious when he's working. May mga sinasabi rin siya na hindi ko na marinig mula rito.

He is hot when he focuses on something.

Wala na rin ang presensya ni Archt. Ara. Baka ay umalis na siya dahil kanina ko pa siya hindi nakikita. All I have in my eyes are the workers and Mat. Mukhang nagkakatuwaan pa sila dahil silang lahat ay nagtatawanan, including Mat.

Bukas ay sabado at kailangan ko na ulit magsulat ng bagong record sa kanilang medical history. 'Yon lang naman ang nakakapagod na araw ko every week. Lingo naman ang day off namin kaya't makakapag-pahinga pa naman ako kinabukasan.

When my phone reminded me that it is already 6:30 pm, Mat is having his footsteps towards me. As usual, he smiled again. "Do you want to go on a date?" he asked as soon as he got in front of me.

"Hindi ako pwede ngayon, I need to go to company, may kukunin akong medical histories ng mga workers dito," I replied. Kailangan kong kunin ang record nila para mai-organize ko sa bahay at para bukas ay ready na sa check-up ang mga trabahador. My lips pouted, "I'm sorry."

We're now facing each other, standing. He smile faded away, "I'm sad," he had another step to me, "but I understand." his hands grasped my waist.

My heart beats so fast as he pulled me to him—I felt his hard chest. "Mat." he buried his face in my shoulders.

His hug from my waist is territorial. "I love you." he said while being so clingy.

"I know," I pat his head. "I love you too." hindi ko alam ang itsura niya ngayon dahil hindi pa rin niya inaalis ang pagkaka-yuko niya sa balikat ko. "I have to do my work, tonight. I couldn't really go. I love you." I'm hoping he will face me again.

And yes, he did.

I embraced his face with my both hands, "Sunday," I demanded.

He removed my hands from his face. His face is slowly reaching mine.

Time stopped when his lips touched mine. My heart pounded as he moves his lips. He's breathing inside my mouth and it is warm—it is heaven.

"Mat, I don't think this is the right place to do this," I weakly said reaching my breath and looked at the site, the workers aren't here anymore and no one is passing by. Nasa loob naman kami ng site at alam kong tago ito pero, it is still not the right place.

Hindi niya pinansin ang sinabi ko at hinawakan niya pa rin ang mukha ko at inilapat ang labi niya sa akin.

Heat is coming from my chest 'til it reached my face. My lips parted and his tongue is curling in my mouth. "M-Mat"

He continued doing it. My knees are getting weaker and I felt tingling in my body. I tightened my hand on his shirt, any moment I can fall, I'm getting weaker as he kisses me.

This time, my tongue is moving inside his mouth. I don't know how it happened, all I know is it just went in. "Mmm" he moaned.

His hands are travelling through my spine.

My hands are embracing the back of his head and I'm pushing it to my face.

Shit's getting wilder and I'm liking it.

Our kiss ended with a laugh.

Mat smiled, "I liked it," he said while we're exiting the site, "Did you?" he face me.

Nandito kami ngayon sa harap ng sasakyan ko, "Yeah, of course, why would I not?" I swear, I'm looking so happy right now from what happened. "So, I need to go to the company now," I said and the door of the car sounded when I opened it. "Gotta go."

My foot yanked inside my car. I saw Mat waiting me to go on my way. The engine started and I will be heading to the company. He waved his hands and mouthed 'ba-bye'.

Palayo nang palayo ang sasakyan at palabo na rin nang palabo ang itsura niya sa rear view mirror.

I still feel his lips moving in my mouth. Mapa-panaginipan ko pa yata ang nangyari kanina.

Sana.
