Chapter Thirty

"You really don't have to do this, Prim."

"You need to eat, atleast eat kung ayaw mo matulog."

"Natutulog ako," aniya.

I scoffed. "One hour? Try eight hours of sleep."

"Hindi na ako sanay."

"Dapat masanay ka, Sir."

May lipad daw sya ngayon kaya after ng breakfast namin, nagpaalam na sya. Ganun routine namin everyday... Well for me, kasi sinisiguro kong kumakain sya ng ayos, tamad na ngang matulog tatamad pang kumain. Road to suicidal na talaga.

I stared at my phone until the ringing stops. Papa do oftenly calls me. Maybe he still pushes his idea, but right now, that's not really on my plan. Ang plano ko, pagkatapos ng short travel ko, diretso pasok na ako sa trabaho.

I know that being a policewoman is really a big thing.

A knock on my door made me jump out of my seat. Mabilis akong tumayo at binuksan iyon, nakasandal sa door frame si Oliver and he looked tired.

Ngumiti sya.

"I told you to sleep."

"I'm hungry." Sagot nya. Binabalewala ang sinabi ko.

"Ramen lang nandito."

"Sa labas." Aniya. "My treat." Dugtong nya ng umiling ako.

He stared at me. I sighed.

Lumabas na kami ng bahay. Sinarado ko iyon at humawak sa kamay nya. Carmela would always asked me if ano ba daw kaming dalawa ni Oliver. Ang sakit daw sa mata noong pagiging sweet nya sa akin.

In return, hindi ako sumasagot kaya naiirita sya. In my case, okay kami ni Oliver ng ganito. I like him alot but my decision is still firm, hindi ko pa din nakikita ang sarili ko bilang girlfriend nya. He's sweet but I'm not really expecting.

Sa isang malapit na fast food kami nakarating ni Oliver. We order food and eat together.

"Stop staring." Sabi nya.

I chuckled. "You have to stop looking good first, Sir."

He pursed his lips. Damn, Cute!

After we eat, naglakad na kami pabalik sa bahay.

"What were you thinking?" Pinisil ko ang kamay nya.

"Things. Random things." Sagot nya. "Random things about us."

"Stop with the overthinking, Sir. It's not good."

Natawa sya at hinigpitan ang hawak sa kamay ko. I looked at him and fixed his hair.

"Thank you," he softly uttered.

"Hmm? For what?"

"For this. For staying by my side, Primrose." Aniya. "Pag nasasaktan na kita, kusa ka ng lumayo ha."

"Tyaka na natin isipin ang mangyayari, Sir kapag nandyan na. All we have to do is focus on this."

"Come here, let me hug you." He pulled me closer to him.

My heart can't stop beating so fast now. Kaya ko ba kapag dumating ang araw na hindi na sya magparamdam sa akin uli?

"I shouldn't be acting like this, but what did you do, Primrose?"

"Parang kasalanan ko pa ah?"

"No. I'm just grateful and thankful."

Diretso uwi na kami after that. Nasipat ko na naman ang pamilyar na sasakyan ni Papa sa labas ng bahay. I sighed.
