“So, Kol lied to me?” I raised my brow while looking at Enzo who’s cooking our dinner for tonight. I tried calling Kol but he just kept on declining my calls. I think he blocked me, actually.
“Just to be fair with Kol, I think he did that for us to talk,” he shrugged and smiled at me. I rolled my eyes and shook my head. “He should’ve just told me the truth instead of lying to me!” sagot ko naman sa lalaki bago muling uminom sa juice na inihanda rin nito kanina.
“If he did, I don’t think you will go here, baby. You saw me and Elisha and I think you had thousands of thoughts inside your head, making stories and jumping into conclusions,” Enzo said while chopping the vegetables. Napasimangot ako dahil totoo naman ang sinabi nito sa akin. When I saw him and Elisha, I immediately thought they’re okay and they’re getting comfortable with each other… hindi ko naman maiwasan na hindi makakaramdam ng selos dahil mahal ko si Enzo.
“See? You’re frowning, meaning I am right.”
Tinignan ko siya ng masama bago sumandal at pinagkrus ang mga braso sa may dibdib ko. “You can’t blame me for thinking things, you know? You even stopped your car in front of me! Ano, gusto mong makita na nagseselos ako?”
“I just want to see you. That’s it.”
Natigilan ako sa sinabi niya. Noong tumigil ang sasakyan nito, tama ang hinala ko na nakatingin ito sa akin…
“I tried talking to you, baby. I went to your house, waited for you for hours just to see you, but you’re too hurt to see me,” he shrugged and looked at me. “I don’t have any plans on giving up, though. I just thought I need to give you some time to process what is happening and I know time will come that you will be able to realize you can trust me, and that–”
“I trust you, Enzo,” I cut him off. Nakakunot ang noo ko habang nakatingin sa lalaki. Sa palagay ba nito ay wala akong tiwala rito? That’s absurd! I trust him!
Tumango-tango ng maliit si Enzo. “Maybe you do, baby. Just maybe not enough to let me man up my decisions and believe me that I will fight for you.”
Nawala ang kunot ng noo ko dahil sa sinabi ni Enzo. Kahit na hindi nito sabihin sa akin, ramdam ko ang sama rin ng loob nito dahil sa ginawa ko. I know what I did was unfair, but to my defense, I was doing what I think is the best for him.
I don’t want him to choose. Ayoko na mamili siya sa akin at sa pamilya niya dahil ayoko lang naman na magalit ang mga ito sa kanya.
“I’m sorry…” halos pabulong na sambit ko. Nagbaba ako ng tingin at ibinabaon ang kuko sa palad ko. Kung ibang tao siguro si Enzo, malamang ay grabe ang galit na ipapakita nito sa akin, pero hindi.
He’s Enzo.
Sinusungitan niya lang ako pero hindi niya ako sasaktan.
Naramdaman ko ang paglapit niya sa akin. Inabot nito ang kamay ko at dinala iyon sa labi nito at hinalikan ang kamay ko. “You don’t have to say sorry, baby. I should’ve talked to you prior to that to explain everything to you,” he smiled and kneeled in front of me so he could level his face on mine.
“I’m sorry if I caused you pain the past days, weeks…” sabi nito habang nakatingin pa rin sa akin at hawak ang dalawang kamay ko. He gently squeezed my hand and kissed them again before looking at me. “I know that I was such an ass, too, baby…”
Umiling ako sa kanya upang kontrahin ang sinabi niya dahil hindi naman talaga totoo ang bagay na iyon.
“But I am glad that you are here even though you didn’t actually plan to be here,” he chuckled. Maging ako ay napangiti rin dahil sa sinabi nito. “I love you, Alyanna Samantha. And even though you ignored me, avoided me, that didn’t make me love you less. I love you.”
I stared at Enzo and I couldn’t stop myself from thinking what I did to deserve him. What did I do to have someone like Enzo in my life? He’s too good for me!
I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him tight. Ipinatong ko ang baba ko sa may balikat ni Enzo habang yakap siya ng mahigpit.
“I love you, too, and I’m really sorry…” bulong ko sa kanya. Naramdaman ko ang pagyakap niya rin sa akin at mabining paghalik nito sa balikat ko.
“I love you, baby.”
“Ayoko lang talaga na mamimili ka sa akin at sa pamilya mo. I know that you love your parents and your grandparents so much and you don’t want to disobey them and–”
“And they know I will choose what I want for my life. They can never dictate me on that, baby. Not anymore…” lumayo siya ng kaunti sa akin at mabilis na dinampian ng halik ang labi ko. He stared at my face and smiled at me.
“God, I missed you…”
Pinamulahan naman ako ng pisngi dahil sa sinabi nito. I just rolled my eyes to hide that from him. “Two days lang kaya na naging tayo, no,” sabi ko sa kanya.
Tumaas naman ang isang kilay ni Enzo sa akin. “We didn’t break up, though. It should be a mutual decision, baby. I never agree to that,” he said before getting up. “What I had in my mind is that we just had a quarrel and I need to get my girl back because she overthinks and she might actually leave me,” he added before going back to the table to continue cooking.
“So, you’re happy that I am here?” tanong ko kay Enzo.
Nag-angat siya ng tingin sa akin at ngumiti. “You have no idea how happy I am, baby,” he replied. “Even though Kol lied to you, I am thankful to him, you know? He brought you to me.”
Tumango ako ng marahan. Kol always does that. Mula kay Jahann at Theon, tumutulong siya na maayos ang problema ng mga ito. Kung minsan ay nakakabwisit na rin dahil hindi man lang ito nagpapaliwanag pero sa palagay ko ay dapat pa rin naman naming ipagpasalamat lahat na may Kol kaming pinsan na handang tulungan kami.
“I’ll just wash up,” paalam ko kay Enzo nang sabihin nito na malapit na maluto ang niluluto nitong hapunan namin. Tinanguan naman ako nito kaya naglakad na ako papunta sa kwartong inokupa ko noon.
The familiar feeling crept into my skin when I opened the door. Kung paanong nagstay kaming dalawa ni Enzo roon noon… kung paanong…
I bit my lip and shook my head to shrug off things from my head.
Kinuha ko na lang ng mabilis ang tuwalya at damit na magagamit ko bago pumasok ng banyo at naglinis ng katawan.
Habang nasa ilalim ng shower ay naiisip ko na naman ang mga possibleng mangyari na ngayong magkasama kami ni Enzo. I should probably call Airi to inform her about my whereabouts, but I am afraid she will tell Jahann and he might go here…
Paano rin si Elisha?
Enzo made it clear to me that he can choose what he wants for his life, but what about Elisha? Nagkausap na ba ito at ang lalaki?
By the looks of it, I think she likes him…
Pero nilinaw naman na rin sa akin ni Enzo na ako ang gusto niya at hindi ang kahit na sino pa. He’s very consistent in telling me that. Siguro nga ay dapat na hindi ko pangunahan ang mga nangyayari at hayaan ko si Enzo na ipaliwanag muna sa akin ang mga bagay-bagay bago ako magdesisyon para sa aming dalawa.
Matapos akong makapaglinis ng katawan at makapagbihis ay lumabas na rin ako kaagad ng kwarto. Sinuklay ko lang ang buhok ko at walang kahit na ano sa mukha ko ngayon kaya pakiramdam ko ay napaka putla ko.
Naabutan ko si Enzo na nasa sala at nakaupo habang nakasandal ang likod nito. Nakapikit din ito kaya hindi ko tiyak kung tulog ba ito o nag-iisip lang.
Tumabi ako sa kanya at inilagay ang braso nito paikot sa balikat ko upang maakbayan ako at isinandal ko naman ang ulo sa dibdib nito.
“Hmm?”
Umiling ako sa kanya. “I just want to hug you…” I said softly. I missed him so much and the only person I can blame because of what happened is me.
Ako lang naman ang nagpahirap sa sitwasyon naming dalawa.
“I missed you, baby…” Enzo said before pulling me closer and kissing my head. Nag-init ang mga mata ko dahil sa sinabi nito kaya mas niyakap ko naman din siya ng mahigpit.
“I missed you…” I whispered.
“That deal happened before I was born and–”
“I don’t want to hear it,” putol ko sa sasabihin niya bago siya tinignan. Ngumiti naman si Enzo sa akin at hinalikan ang noo ko. “You have to, baby,” sagot niya naman sa akin. I frowned and leaned on his chest again.
Nilalaro-laro nito ang buhok ko nang magsalita itong muli.
“It happened before I was born. Before my mom was born, actually…” simula nitong muli. Kahit na gusto kong sabihin ulit sa kanya na hindi ako interesado ay hindi na lang ako nagsalita at nakinig na lang ako sa sasabihin ni Enzo.
“When I was 13, my grandpa told me that already and I didn’t really care,” he was also squeezing my hand while he’s talking. “Things changed when I started having feelings for you. I forgot that deal already, actually, because the moment I started developing feelings for you, the future I see is with you,” he kissed my head again.
“Dad and mom never really told us who we should love because they think it’s really our choice. Dictating who you should love is actually stupid. You can’t force love. It will occur to you when you least expect it to happen…”
Napatango ako sa kanya dahil sumasang-ayon naman talaga ako sa sinasabi nito.
“My family and I never talked about that again, until we went to Australia,” he heaved a sigh. “I already told grandpa that I have no plans on marrying someone I don’t love. He thought I was just bluffing, so he went here… with Elisha…”
Nag-angat ako ng tingin nang sambitin niya ang pangalan ng babae.
“She’s pretty.”
Tumango si Enzo sa akin. “She is.”
I frowned at him.
He chuckled and pecked on my lips.
“I think she wants to marry you…” sabi ko pa na ikinakunot ng noo ni Enzo. “Who wouldn’t? You’re handsome, smart, rich, gentleman… and the long list goes on, you know?”
“So, you’ll marry me?” diretsong tanong nito sa akin na ikinapula ng mga pisngi ko.
“Of course, but not now!” sabi ko bago umayos ng upo at humalukipkip. Narinig ko naman ang pagtawa ni Enzo bago inabot ang kamay ko at pinagsaklop iyon sa kamay nito.
“What made you think Elisha wants to marry me?” he asked me. I looked at him and raised a brow on him. “Seriously?”
Tumango naman ito sa akin na para bang napaka inosente nito sa mga bagay-bagay!
“Iba siya kaya tumingin sa’yo,” sagot ko na lang sa kanya.
Enzo chuckled again before looking at me. “Elisha doesn’t like me, baby. It’s not what you think, okay? She likes someone else,” he shrugged and smiled at me. “She has a girlfriend,” he added.
Natigilan ako at lumingon kay Enzo.
“What?” I think I misheard him. May girlfriend si Elisha?
Tumango si Enzo sa akin. “She’s asking for my help to convince her family to call off the wedding and to explain to them my decision. It was okay with me because even though she didn’t ask for my help, I will still do it because it’s you who I love,” sagot nito.
Nakatingin lang ako sa kanya habang hinihintay pa rin ang paliwanag nito.
Napangiti si Enzo sa akin. “She’s also into girls, okay?”
“Oh…”
I have nothing against that because honestly I think there’s nothing wrong with that…
Enzo smiled at me while staring at me. Para bang natutuwa ito sa naging reaksyon ko dahil talaga namang nagulat ako sa sinabi nito.
He cupped my face and caressed my cheek. I missed the feeling of his warm palms against my cheeks. “Do you still think she likes me?” tanong ni Enzo na parang nang-aasar sa akin. Napanguso naman ako dahil sa ginagawa nito.
Huminga ng malalim si Enzo bago tinitigan ako sa mga mata ko. Para bang ang daming gustong sabihin nito habang nakatingin sa akin.
“Why…?” I asked him.
Umiling ito sa akin habang hinahaplos ang mga pisngi ko.
“I love you, only you. I love you so much that I can’t even sum it all up in a sentence that will help me explain to you how much I love you… and you have nothing to worry about because I will always fight for you, Alyanna.”
Hinawakan ko ang kamay niyang nasa may pisngi ko at hinalikan iyon. Tumango ako sa kanya dahil alam ko na nasaktan ko siya sa ginawa ko. Nakatingin lang siya sa akin kaya ako naman na ang nagsalita.
“I’m sorry if I doubted you, if I didn’t let you explain… if I assumed things and if I–” he cut me off and claimed my lips for a kiss.
I smiled against his lips and kissed him back.
Naramdaman ko na lang ang paghila niya sa akin upang maupo sa kandungan nito habang patuloy pa ring hinahalikan ang mga labi ko.
Enzo moved away a little and looked at me. Hawak nito ang bewang ko at ang leeg ko. Nakikita ko rin ang pamumula ng mukha ni Enzo pababa sa leeg nito at dibdib.
“Enzo…”
“Damn, baby… we should stop going here, I think…” he said before pulling me again and kissed my lips hungrily.
I wanted to answer him back but I got lost in his kisses.
I could feel his bulge between my thighs and I think I know now why he said that…
We should stop going here…
Or maybe not.
