Be With Him

“You see there’s some parts of our body that is very sensitive, right?…”My mind started flying as our science prof start discussing infront.

It’s just 3 month of the School year so hindi gano’n ka hectic, maybe after a month mauubos lahat ng oras ko na naman dito sa school.

It’s been a week since I last saw Adam, I miss him already but I know he’s more than busy than me, Sana all Dean’s Lister!

My phone beeped, there’s an SMS from him.

From:Adamot

U free tonight babe? I’ll fetch u.

I smiled and excitement consume my nerves. Ah! At last I will finally see him

To: Adam

Sige, u’re the one who’s busy here duh?

I put a ‘Haha’ emoji so he wouldn’t misunderstood it. I wait for about 3 hours bago natapos ang klase namin

My smile widened when I saw him standing outside my room, wearing a black polo short, tuck-in to his black slacks.

Omaygad, Jowa ko ba talaga ‘to? Pinatulan ako? Sure? Gwapo shit!

“Hi Babe” he greeted me so my face automatically heated, damn this guy, I’m so in love.

“Hi” I greeted back, kinuha niya ang dala kong mga libro at inakbayan ako.

“I have to review but let’s date first” he smiled at me, my smiled faded, he needed to review.

“Let’s just date next time, Adam.” I glared at him “You need to review, wag unahin ang date natin, do you understand?” Nagsalubong ang dalawa niyang kilay at nagigting ang panga.

“What’s the occasion tommorow?” He asked while looking straight into my eyes.

“Uhm? Wala? May exam kayo tomorrow, right?” Well, as far as I can remember

“Damn” he muttered a cussed and he glared at me “Tommorow is our third month!”

I laughed when I saw how red his face was, damn this guy.

“Joke lang ‘no! Alam ko kaya!” I pinched his cheeks and kiss it “Review now and after your exam, lets date?”

He bit his lips and nodded, tangina ang hot.

“That’s a deal, Woman” he jokingly glared at me bago ako inakbayan “Don’t ditch me, I’ll surely get mad” I laughed at his thought.

Ditch this Man? Oh boy! Never gonna happened.

He held my hands while walking towards the parking lot, Simula nang maging kami ay hatid sundo niya ako, date sometimes but well we’re both busy so minsan talaga hindi kami nakaka pagkita.

Funny, but naging kami nang walang ligawang nagaganp, naging kami matapos ang tatlong linggo palang namin na magkakilala, Ang harot Reu ha!

Hindi gaya ibang mga mag-boyfriend girlfriend na gumagawa ng LSM? OA sa social media? We’re not like that, Adam is not into social medias so am I, mas gusto pa namin ang mag-aral nang sabay na minsan ay umaabot pa ng anim na oras na nakatutok lamang kami sa libro.

“Adam! Hey!”

Napatigil kami sa paglalakad nang may lumapit na isang babae, She’s wearing a black pencil-cut skirt, white long sleeve at black heels.

Wow, grabehan sa suot ha.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Sorina” Adam nod at her “Bakit?” His voice is so deep.

“Nothing, I’ll just ask kung where ka ba magre-review?” The girl Sorina asked using her soft voice.

Ah, classmate pala ‘to.

“Ask her” Ha? Tinuro ako ni Adam dahilan kung bakit napa-tingin sa’ken yung babae

“Aw, you have accompany pala” She frowned and rolled her eyes before smiling at Adam “Next time nalang” tinapunan niya pa muna ako ng tingin bago sopistikadang naglakad palayo.

“Sorry about that, She’s just my classmate” I raised my brow and frowned

“Sorry saan? Nilandi ka ‘ba?” Takhang tanong ko but he just smiled at me.

Weird talaga ‘to minsan.

“Aish, you know it’s okay to ditch the exam, one time lang naman” he smiled at me, my blood boiled in an instant.

“Try to ditch your exam, I’ll never talk to you” I saw how his shoulder fall but still managed to smiled at me “Babe, Unahin mo ang pag-aaral, we can date everyday if we’re both stable na diba? we can even explore the world, Study first okay?” Study bago landi ang motto ko sa buhay e… dati kaso nilandi ako nito

“What if join that Sorina girl, para may ka-help kang mag-review?” I suggest when we stop infront of his car

He automatically frowned “You sure it’s okay to you?” He asked while leaning on his car

“Duh? Why naman Hindi?” Nakita ko si Sorina na nakatayo sa kabilang kalya mukhang may inaantay “Sorina!” Pa-feeling close na sigaw ko at naramdaman ko agad ang kamay ni Adam na pumulupot sa bewang ko.

The girl raised her brow pero kalaunan ay tumawid din papunta sa’min.

“What is it?” Her voice is so elegant, para siyang future beauty queen.

“Sabay daw kayo mag-review ni Adam hehe” Her face lightened and I saw how she tried not to jump in excitement, siguro gan’on talaga kahirap exam nila kaya need niya talaga ng katulong.

“Oh my god, are you really serious, Adam?” Nang lingunin ko si Adam ay wala kay Sorina ang atensyon nito kundi nasa akin

Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin at pasimpleng kinurot sa tagiliran.

“Umayos ka nga” mahinang bulong ko, he sighed and nodded boredly

“She wants it, not me” he didn’t even glanced at Sorina, Gaga’ng to nakakahiya talaga.

“So let’s go?” Sorina asked him kaya tinulak ko si Adam ng bahagya para lumayo at bumitaw sa pag kakayakap sa’ken.

“Psh, wait here I’ll drive my girlfriend home” he was about to open his car when I grabbed his wrist, pinandilatan ko siya nang mata bago ngumiti kay Sorina

“It’s okay lang, I can book a grab naman tsaka para hindi kayo gabihin” I smiled at them, lumapit ako kay Adam at humalik sa pisngi niya bago nagsimulang maglakad but I felt someone held my wrist

“Hoy–” My eyes widened when Adam slam his lips against mine, naiwang nakabukas ang labi ko at ang gago! ginamit ang pag kakataon para ipasok ang dila niya! Shara—Gaga!

“You sure na ayos lang sayo?” He smiled genuinely at me while cupping my face, Shit nakakahiya sa tapat pa talaga ni Sorina!

“Y-y-yes” itinulak ko ito ng dahan dahan and when I look at Sorina, sa iba siya naka-tingin, nakakahiya!

“Bye love, I love you!” Naglakad na ako nang sumigaw si Adam, napa-ngiti ako, Ang landi!

Halos mapatalon ako ng may bumusina ng malakas.

Agad nanlaki ang mata ko nang makita kong binubusinaha ni Adam si Sorina

“Ano? alalayan pa kitang sumakay?!” The girl immediately hop in.

Gaga’ng lalaki’ng to, apaka harsh!

Halos beinte-minutos ang nilakad ko dahil tinamad na akong magbook ng grab.

“Pa! I’m home!” I shouted when I entered the house

I smiled bitterly when no one answered, kung titignan ang bahay ngayon mukha itong hunted house sa sobrang tahimik, We don’t do yayas nor Nannys we prefer to cook for the family or other house chores.

But I think, I regret having no one in this house, napaka-tahimik wala na yung saya

Nanlulumo akong umakyat sa kwarto ko at pabagsak na inihiga ang katawan sa kama

Nang imulat ko ang mata ko ay halos madilim na, bukod sa walang ilaw wala ring liwanag sa labas

Nakatulog ako? Fuck!

I need to review, ayoko’ng bumagsak no! Hahabol ako sa D. L mars.

Nagpalit ako ng damit dahil naka-uniform pa ako, kinuha ko ang cellphone sa bag ko para icheck kung may message ba sa’ken si Adam pero wala so I decided to message him

To:Adamot

Babeee, hows ur review? baka gutom na kayo ha!

After hitting send, I wait for about 5 mins but no one replied.

Napag-desisyunan ko na lamang na bumaba para kumuha ng makakain, and to my surprise I saw father watching TV news.

“Oh? You’re here na pala, Anak?”mabilis ito’ng tumayo at yumakap sa kanya “Anong oras ka dumating? I didn’t saw you” he looked so worried at me

“Kanina pa ho, nakatulog lang ho” he laughed at my reason and help me get my food

“Dyan ka muna, kuhaan kita ng pagkain” I smiled and nodded at him “Where’s your brother? It’s already evening!”

I was about to answer when I saw an envelope, when I opened it my heart sank, tears started falling down again

Divorce Paper

Nainis ako sa kaalamanang si Mama ang nag-request nito, and yeah gaya ng nasa utak ko, pirmado na ito ni Mama.

“Anak, Where’s—” he was cut off when he saw me crying, nagbalik- balik ang tingin niya sa’ken at sa papel na hawak ko “N-n-nak” he gulped

“Totoo? Dad?” He smiled weakly before nodding, I can’t help myself but to run and hug him

“Everything is g-gonna be alright, Anak” he whispered
