Roemer's POV
"What the fuck?!" I cursed. I held the back of head, damn it hurts!
"Did you just push me?" She's really getting in my nerves! Damn!
"Alangan namang sa sofa ako matutulog?" Mataray niyang sambit at nahiga sa kama. She should be thankful she's a fucking girl. Kung hindi kanina ko pa nasakal.
"Damn it!" My back hurts because of her forceful push! Babae ba talaga to?
Hinablot ko ang unan niya, kinuha ko din ang blanket at dumiretso sa sofa. Napangisi ako nang bumangon siya at tinignan ako ng masama.
"Damn you! Give me back those pillows!"
Ngumisi ako, nahiga ako sa sofa at inayos ang blanket at unan. Nang tumayo siya at pumunta sa banyo ay agad akong humiga sa kama bitbit ang unan at blanket. You think I'll sleep in the sofa? Dream on.
Ynoa's POV
Tumayo at pumunta sa banyo. Hindi ko alam kung ilang minuto akong naligo. As the water from the shower dripped from my head to toe, I was drowned with my own thoughts.
One small lie turned into a big one. Madami din ang dawit, ang pamilya ni Roemer. They all seem nice, and they treat Zeijan with love and care. Hindi kami pwedeng mabuko ni Roemer. I'll just go with the plan, live with him untill this will end. Then we'll separate after. Siya ang bahala kung paano na magpapaliwanag sa pamilya niya. Then Zeijan and I will go broad, for good. I just need money. And the total sum of money that I'll be receiving is more than enough. I can find a job there.
It's a good thing I packed undies, I bit my lip when most of the clothes are my corporate attire. Wala akong nadalang pantulog!
Pumunta na lang ako sa walk in closet ni Roemer at kumuha ng plain white v neck shirt. Halos hanggang sa taas ng tuhod ko ang laylayan nito. Okay na to.
Is he fucking sleeping? Sa kama?! He's unbelievable. Hindi gentleman! Aba si Harry noon, halos hindi niya ako payagan na magbuhat!
Umirap na lang ako at kinuha ang isang unan sa tabi niya. I closed the lampshade too. My eyes found its way to his face. His thick eyebrows and narrow nose was like molded into perfection. I held my eyelashes, and pouted. Nagpaextension ba to? Bakit ang haba? How unfair. Tumalikod nalang ako dahil nang matitigan ang mapupula niyang labi ay nakaramdam ako ng kakaiba.
Napabuntong hininga nalang ako at humiga sa sofa. Tss. I ended up sleeping here! That jerk! Mabangungot ka sana!
Roemer's POV
Hindi ko namalayan kung ilang minuto akong nakapikit. I just felt her grabbed the one pillow on my side and I felt she closed the lampshade.
Bumangon ako at nakitang mahimbing nang nakatulog sa sofa. That fast? Parang nanibago ako sa kama ko. Why does it feel so spacious? And incomplete? The hell?
Did she just wore my shirt? It looks good on her though. I felt something when her legs are showing. I'm an adult now so it's natural for me to feel desires. The fuck am I thinking?
I shook my head when I stared at her face. She looks better when sleeping, and innocent and good. Because when she's awake? I will believe it if she says her father is lucifer.
She have this small face, thin and reddish lips, thick eyelashes and pointed nose. She's a beauty. Damn I think I could stare at her all day.
Trying so hard not to wake her up, I carried her and slowly placed her on my bed. I also covered her with the thick white blanket. I sighed. Where the fuck will I sleep now?
I failed to realize where I was heading to untill I found myself in front of Zeijan's room. I felt a warm hands in my heart when he called me dy.
He's sleeping soundly on his bed. His long hair almost covered his handsome face. I brushed it with my hands as I laid down beside him. She looks like Ynoa. Whoever your father is, fuck him for leaving you behind. He just lost his chance. He don't deserve Zeijan. When I told Ynoa, that I can be his father. I meant it. I fucking meant it.
"Dy?"
"Did I wake you up? I'm sorry." I whispered.
He smiled. My heart melted. "Can I sleep here?" he smiled more and nodded with his eyes closed. He looks so adorable.
His little hands wrapped around my fingers. Let me, and accept me as your father. I will give you my name. My everything. My all.
Ynoa's POV
Dali dali akong naligo at nagbihis nang magising ako. I wonder where did Roemer slept? Nasa kama kasi ako nang magising ako.
I half run towards Zeijan's room. Nang makarating ay wala siya doon. Where is he?
"Zeijan?"
I heard a laugh and splashes of water in the bathroom. Halos maatake ako nang lumabas doon si Roemer at Zeijan. Halos balutin ni Roemer si Zeijan ng twalya, nagmukha tuloy siyang turon, na ngayon ay bitbit niya sa kanyang braso. Roemer is now wearing his business attire but without his coat. Mabuti ay hindi nabasa ng damit niya.
"Dy! Put me down! I can take a bath alone! I'm not a baby."
Roemer laughed, natigil lang nang makita ako. Ibinaba niya naman si Zeijan na nabalot sa twalya. He whispered something to him, agad na umalis si Zeijan. At pumasok sa isang walk-in closet. Marahil ay para magbihis. He can change on his own though.
"You're awake. Sabay na tayong magbreakfast sa baba." he uttered.
At ganoon ang nangyari. I was silent the whole time. Even when we drove Zeijan to his school.
"Ynoa, is there something wrong?" Roemer asked when we arrive at his company.
"Pakialam mo ba?" mataray kong sambit.
"How I wish to cut your tounge." He whispered but I heard it.
Sumunod siya nang pumasok ako sa elevator. Every employee were looking at us. Hindi pa nahiya at nagtsismisan pa. I almost forgot, pumutok pala ang balita tungkol sa amin.
"What's my schedule for today?" Roemer asked. Nanlaki ng mata ko, damn!
"It's fine. Alam ko naman." He smirked. Nauna nang lumabas sa elevator.
"That jerk!" I hissed. Bigla siyang tumigil kaya naumpog ako sa likod niya.
"Ano ba?!"
"Make me a coffee." ani niya at tuluyang pumasok sa opisina niya.
Napailing na lang ako. That jackass!
I smirked when I think of something. Hmm.
Tatawa tawa ako habang nagtitimpla. I made his coffee so sweet! No sugar my ass? Halos inilagay ko ang kalahati ng asukal sa kape niya.
Nakangiti akong nakabitbit ng kape ni Roemer. Thinking of his angry face makes me laugh.
"Here's your coffee!" I giggled.
He looked at me with his suspicious eyes. I bit my lip to supress a smile. I am laughing so hard inside my mind.
Patakbo akong lumabas nang mailapag ang kape niya.
"One....two..three." I counted.
"Ynoa!!" His voice echoed. So thunderous and angry. Told you!
Hindi ko na napigilan ang tumawa nang marinig iyon. I bet he wants to kill me now!
"I'll deal with you after this meeting. Let's go." He uttered.
Ngumuso ako at agad na sumunod. Here in the schedule, it says a meeting with a representative of Geneo Architectural Firm. I bet about a proposal of a design for the new building of Roemer's company.
My mouth turned into a big O when we entered a very known and classic restaurant.
"It's okay. I understand." Roemer uttered. He's on the phone.
"Is this a personal meeting?" I asked after the call ended.
"No, there's just a situation so we have to meet here." tumango tango nalang ako.
Nang makapasok ay agad na dinaluhan ng isang waiter. He showed us the reserved table for us. Napalinga linga ako dahil sa ganda. Kakaunti lang ang tao dito, at kapag nagpantalon ka aba. Magmumukha kang basahan!
Nauna kaming umupo ni Roemer nang maramdaman ko ang tawag ng kalikasan. Wala pa naman yung kameeting niya e.
"Ihi lang ako." Paalam ko kaya tumango nalang siya.
I brushed my hair in front of the mirror when I finished peeing. I also applied my lipstick, now it's pinkish. It looked so natural.
Nang matapos ay lumabas na ako, may kasama na si Roemer na lalaki. His back is broad and wide, I walked towards them.
"Nice to meet you, Architect Harry Geneciano."
Halos mabitawan ko ang dala kong bag nang marinig ang sabi ni Roemer. Dahil nakatalikod ang kasama ay hindi ko pa nakikita.
Halos manginig ang kalamnan ko nang lumapit ako sa kanila. My heart raced, it beated so wildly to the point that it hurts. My knees started to melt. Natuod ako sa kinatatayuan ko. I wanted to back out and just leave.
But before I could, he slowly turned and our eyes met. Hindi ko na nagawang ngumiti pa. How many years have passed? Halos hindi ko na siya makilala.
His smile faded. Like me, he looked so flushed and shocked.
"H-harry." I whispered.
