penny for your thoughts?

hey sorry... i spaced out... uhhmm ano pala kakainin natin for dinner?

ikaw...

HHOOIIII!!!

uuyyy grabe ka love what i meant was ikaw, ikaw ang magdecide saan tayo kakain... although i have to admit mas gusto ko yung nasa isip mo

ang harot mo! and to correct that, wala akong iniisip noh!

talaga love? hindi mo ba naisip kung pano ko papakin yung—

JAAAAYYYY!!!!

yung hinanda mong souffle! ano ba kasi iniisip mong pinapapak ko?

alam mo ikaw! ida-diet na kita! kung ano-ano na kinakain mo

ang sarap kasi eh

HHAAAYYY!!! lakasan mo nga yung aircon

bakit ikaw ba hindi ka nasasarapa— aarrraayyy! love naman! ang sakit ng kagat mo

eh pano ang harot harot mo na naman!

kasalanan mo kaya kung bakit ako tumatakaw

jay! magmaneho ka lang po, please lang baka kung saan pa mapunta ang usapan na to.

he held my hand and kissed my palm.

i love you

i love you nuggets...

ang sarap naman marinig

she glanced at him while his eyes were darted on the road. then she smiled

mas masarap sabihin lalo na pag ikaw ang nakakarinig

love dahan-dahan naman sa pagpapakilig.

she laughed at him and moved closer to hug his arms

naglalambing ang french fries ko ah... anong gusto?

wala po. hindi na ba ako pwedeng maglambing sa nuggets ko?

huy... never kong tatanggihan ang paglalambing mo

all of a sudden his phone rang. it was leo on the caller id.

love pakisagot naman

speaker ko?

sure

"hello rj?"

yep go ahead dude

"am i on speaker?" leo asked

yes

"are you with french— YOUR FRENCH FRIES?" he corrected himself.

yes leo i'm with him. you wanna talk in private?

"pwede ba french fries NI RJ?" again he emphasized the possesion. he knows that name should only be his

no leo, go ahead you can say anything

hey it's ok. i trust you.

she took his earpiece and connected his phone thru his bluetooth. he protested but cannot do anything since he's driving. he knows there's nothing to hide. and as much as possible he does not want to keep any secrets from her.

go ahead leo

—

that's fine.

—

i'm good with that

—

he held her hands again while talking to leo probably sending an assurance.

dude if that's not possible you can cancel it. i'm not going if i can't take nico with me

—

forget about it

—

thanks dude

—

i may not be coming in tomorrow

—

i'm busy

—

busy enjoying my life with the woman i love

—

good

—

thanks. just keep me updated.

—

bye. — love you can take off the earpiece

she moved closer to take off his earpiece when her hands were suddenly caught by his.

love wala akong itatago sayo. whatever people want to say to me they can say it while you're listening remember that.

she sighed then kissed his hands

alam ko naman. ang akin lang there are still some things na for your ears muna. alam ko naman na sasabihin mo sa akin kung kelangan kong malaman. i trust you, remember?

and i don't want to break that, i just want to be clear. by the way, that call is about the property i wanted to buy.

the one on page four? yung listing na binigay ni leo?

yep. i really want to have it. for one reason

go on.

that's the house i designed

so your ex-girlfriend hasn't moved on yet huh?

love—

huyy! bakit naman nakakunot ang noo mo?

i don't want you to th—

she can't have you.

she looked at him. luckily the stoplight turned red. his mind was paralyzed for a good few seconds.

you hear me? hindi ka nya maaagaw kasi hindi ako papayag.

then without another word she looked straight thru the windshield. after jay recovered from what he heard, he can't help but smirk at her claim.

wipe that smirk faulkerson.

what? he asked still grinning

and don't even deny you're smirking

kingina ang hot mo dun love

now it's her time to smirk. while he was driving, she leaned in and whispered on his ear closely

drive fast... i'm hungry... oh scratch that... i'm STARVING jay

then she lightly bit his ears and that sent him to overdrive

fuck! let's have dinner delivered

^^^^^^^^

after dinner... (yes DINNER)

nuggets?

she called on to him while drawing circles on his bare chest while he lovingly caress her hair

hmm?

i met bianca

he was suprised at what she said. but he was more surprised when she climbed on top to straddle him. well, she really knows what to do for him not to protest.

she gave him a peck on his lips then cupped his face.

nung naglunch kami kanina nila je she was there. i didn't know. lumapit siya sa table to say hi to je, nuel and apparently kilala din pala nya si chloe. so yun, we got introduced.

did they introduce you as my girlfriend?

she kissed him again. probably looking for a loophole. but this time, jay was adamant to know.

they did....

i'm sensing there's a BUT

thing is hindi ko alam na siya si bianca, kasi they kept on addressing her as b. akala pa nga nya girlfriend ako ni je

ANOOO?! SI JE?!! GIR—

she didn't let him finish. she kissed him again

makaprotesta ka naman! siyempre sinabi ni je na girlfriend mo ko.

buti naman

ayun na nga. since medyo na-feel ko yung awkwardness i... yung... sabi ko... ahhhmm...

what?

i told her... aahhhmm ..... sabi ko... ahhh

love what did you tell her?

eh di ba we agreed din naman na we're not putting any label to what we have...

so you told her hindi kita girlfriend. is that it?

she saw sadness in his eyes and she really felt guilty at the guy who had not done anything but to love her.

jay... i'm... nuggets i'm sorry po

she snuggled to his neck and kept on apologizing while trailing sweet kisses on his ear and neck. and of course, once again, his walls collapsed. paano nga ba magtatampo eh hindi siya makakuha ng pagkakataon. magtatampo pa lang sinusuyo na agad.

hmmm... eh yung alam mo talaga na hindi ko matitiis yang paglalambing mo. come here...

ayaw! galit pa ikaw... she buried her face more to his neck and hugged him tighter

hindi nga po ako galit...

hindi ka na galit kay french fries?

come here. look at me

she looked at him with puppy eyes. oh ano na faulkerson? hindi umubra ang pagiging CEO mo noh! he pressed his lips against hers and pulled her to close any unwanted gaps in between their bodies.

hindi ako magagalit sayo. besides mula pa naman noon bago pa ko magtampo nalambing mo na ko. pero pwede bang humiling si nuggets?

opo.

marry me

that stunned her. she didn't move or she wasn't able to move. did she heard him right? she was momentarily frozen.

huy... love?

—

love? please say something...??

—

love? kinakabahan ako...

did... did you— did you just—- did you just proposed?

uhmm... i did

so i heard it correctly?

yes love

you're as— uhhmm... wait... sandali... you're asking me to marry you?

yes love

to spend the rest of my life with you?

he chuckled and stroked her hair

yes love

to be the last person you see every night before you sleep and the first person you see everytime you wake up?

yes love

to be the bearer of your last name?

yes love

to be the mother of your kids? — your cute kids

yes love. and we can start now... what do you say?

he captured her lips and flipped her so now she's pinned to his bed while hovering on top of her.

wait...

love... ano yung wait na yan

impatient lang mr. faulkerson? sasagot pa ko oh!

i thought you said yes already?

you said yes to all of my questions

love... wag mo naman akong takutin...

she glared at him then pulled his nape to give him a searing kiss

matatakot ka pa ba talaga eh hubad na nga ako sa kama mo oh, tapos ginawa mo na nga akong dinner hihindi pa ba ko?

i want you to say it...

it's a yes mr. faulkerson! i'll marry you! god! now go ahead with your dessert!

and so what a man's got to do when the love of his life demands? of course, he gladly obeyed.

and as she was sleeping after their full course dinner... he slid a shiny thing on her finger then kissed her forehead

the battle was worth it my sun... it was all worth it.

and the moon fell asleep while cradling the sun in his arms...

.... total eclipse

a total eclipse occurs when the dark silhouette of the moon completely obscures the intensely bright light of the sun, allowing the much fainter solar corona to be visible.
