Be With Him

“Let me gain your trust again, Love..”

My eyes become teary, a familiar warmth feeling suddenly enveloped my inside, the same feeling I was feeling for him before.

“A-adam..” was the only word I can uttered, I was really out of words, naba-blanko ang utak ko.

“I’m gonna court you again, hm?” He held my hands tightly and plant a little kisses in the back of my palm ” Let me court you again, Love..”

“How about Soriena?” I asked still terrified but he just sighed and tapped something on his phone using his other hand.

Calling Soriena Morales…

He put the phone in front of us, for me to heard their conversation.

“Hello, Attorney?”

“Uhm..” Adam cleared his throat not taking his gaze away “Are you still inlove with me?”

Halos mahulog ako sa aking kinauupuan dahil sa kaniyang pandidiretso, A moment of silence until I heard someone laughed.

“Come on, Attorney, Are you serious?” She then laughed again, rinig pa ang iilang pag mumura niya.

Napa-tingin ako kay Adam ngunit nakatitig lamang ito sa ‘kin ngunit mayroong multo ng ngiti sa mga labi.

“Is it about your lovey-dovey? Bakit hindi mo aminin na stalker ka? Th–”

Adam suddenly ended the called, nanlalaki ang kaniyang mga mata’ng naka-titig sa cellphone na animo’y nakakita ng multo.

“What’s wrong?” I asked curiously pero napapangiti, stalker huh? ” What’s your problem, Attorney?”

“N-nothing….” He sighed, nang lingunin ako ay biglang kumunot ang kaniyang noo at kita ko ang unti-unting pamumula ng kaniyang mukha tungo sa kaniyang leeg at tenga, Cute. “Don’t laugh, Reuzekhia.” he said sternly, I giggled.

“Are you the flower sender, hmm?” I asked.

Sa ilang araw na magkasama kami sa penthouse ay ilang beses ko siyang kamuntikang mahuling nag-iiwan ng bulaklak sa tapat ng pintuan ng bahay at kapag nahuli man ay biglang kunyaring kukunot ang noo at magtataka kung bakit may bulaklak sa pintuan.

Gaya rin ng i-abot sa’kin ng delivery boy ang bulaklak ay nanlaki ang mga mata nito at napa-ngiti ng makitang kasama ko si Adam sa bahay ngunit mabilis ring nawala ang ngisi dahil sa eksahaderong pag-tikhim ni Adam.

Obvious ka girl.

“I didn’t know how to show my support secretly… and Soriena came up with that plan” he rub the tip of his nose and wet his lips using his tongue.

“Hm, pero bakit stalker tawag niya sayo?” I asked while roaming my eyes around.

“Nand’on ako kada achievement mo..” My eyes suddenly locked on his “I was there when you first got your car… I was there when you opened your café… when you graduated… I was always there beside you like I promise, Si Fortune… wala talaga siyang alam not until your graduation day, Soriena sent him a picture of us when we’re still together.. ”

My mouth left hanging, I felt some butterflies roaming inside my stomach

How could this man looked so intimidating and soft at the same time? How can he make my heart fluttered in just a word? How can he say those word with such emotions? How can he makes my knee melt? How? How can be this almost perfect man love me?

He loves me, He still loves me, I’m sure of it, neither do I. I love him, I still love him, I always love him.

But…

Can we still go back like how we used to be? Can we still love each other like how we supposed to be?

“I love you, Reuzekhia..” My heart flutter when I heard how his voice become so soft. How his eyes twinkled while talking to me.

Anong tumakbo sa utak ni Kupido at inilayo siya sa ‘kin ng ganun katagal? Para iparanas sa ‘min ang sakit ngunit kalaunan ay ipakikita rin sa’kin ang kaniyang mga ngiti?

Para sukatin kung ga’no kami katatag? Kalokohan.

“I love you… I love you” he said between his kisses on my hand, I saw him smirked “Can I hug my baby again? Can I, Miss?”

I bit my lower lips trying to hide my smiled but again.. too late, I felt my self nodded.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Binitawan niya ang aking kamay at dali-daling na-upo sa tabi ko at ni-yakap ako patagilid.

Isinubsob ang kaniyang sariling ulo sa’king leeg at mahigpit na yumakap ang mga kamay sa aking bewang, I felt his whiskers brushing against my neck, it tickles me.

“Please let me court you again…”

For the nth time my heart fluttered I even felt my eyes watered because of the way he talks, so soft that even babies will appreciate it.

No woman can’t fall for this guy.

But sadly, Someone already owned him.

A very beautiful woman named Reuzekhia, char!

“Pa’no kung gano’n pa rin? Anong gagawin natin?” I asked again.

I’m scared, Some what if’s were flashing inside my head.

What if we did the same mistakes? Or worst than that?

What if we didn’t work?

What if we end up separating ways again?

I can’t imagine being broken at the same reason, but some part of me were trying to epal still thankful na this man is still inlove with me.

“Then we’ll overcome your fear, let’s fix things up between us, Love” He buried his head deeper and planted small kisses on my neck ” but please this time let me explain, okay?”

I chuckled but some tears were now starting falling down on my cheeks.

“Please trust me again…”
