Chapter 10
AFTER a few walks, Beauty stopped at a park near her parent's home. She sat at the metal swing.
It's been so long since she had experienced pushing and pulling herself on a swing. She feels a little lighter after the childish side of her came out. The silence of the night was giving her a peace of mind. She slept on her parent's nest last night.
She was relieved when Hera does seem to understand her avoidance to talk about her husband. Kahit naman madaldal ang kaibigan niyang iyon ay marunong itong makiramdam sa sitwasyon niya. And that was she needed at the moment. She doesn't want to talk. She just wanted to keep her thoughts all by herself. She set her goodbyes to her parents a few hours ago. She insisted them she'll meet her husband halfway the subdivision, but
Haliksa kanyang punong tenga pababa sa kanyang leeg ang nagpagising sa kanya. Her nipple harden when she felt a hand cupping it.Mabilis niyang niligon ang asawa at namumula ang mukhang sinilip ito. He stopped kissing her but his hand is still playing with her breast."Good morning,"anas nito. Kahibla lang ang pagitan ng kanilang mga labi kaya langhap na langhap niya ang mabango nitong hininga.Nakapagmumog na ba siya? Bakit ang bango naman ng hininga niya?She asked herself."Now are we going to talk or you'll just let me continue what I'm doing, because honestly wife, I'm still hard on.'Mas lalong nanlaki ang mga mata ni Beauty nang maramdaman ang pag
BEAUTY can hardly controlled her heart from somersaulting as she tried to recall the sweet gestures of her husband. Sa ginagawa nitong iyon ay mas lalong nahuhulog ang puso niya dito.Euh Jin got out of the car first. She opened the door and slid herself out of the carriage, too. She followed him."Good morning, Sir Euh Jin,"nakangiting bati ng security guard dito.Ngumiti siya sa guard nang siya naman ang batiin nito. Inside the tall building is an elegant lobby that spokes prosperity. People are everywhere greeting her husband, but as usual Euh Jin is just so unresponsive. Para siyang napako sa kinatatayuan nang mamataan ang pagsulyap, pagbati at pagyuko ng mga tao rito. She felt so little, and out of place. Gusto man niyang ihakbang ang kanyang mga paa ay tila
WHAT his wife just confessedbeat the shit out of him. It was so hard to explain what Euh Jin had just realized. He was jealous.God damn it!He's livid because from the looks of it, Hughens likes his wife and never did he thought of punching this guy who happens to be his buddy.This fucking feelings are interrupting all the plans he made from the start. At first, he was reasoning out he was just giving his wife what she deserve. Revenge. But as days goes by, he begun to like her. He likes to be with her, to see her sleeping, cuddling her, feeling her breathing next to him. And her smile? Her smile moves him to the highest happiness he could feel. Is that even possible?There were also time he's worried about her. Then he gets jealous easily. He was scared she would be able to recognize the disturbance
EUH JIN gave a fast kiss on Beauty's lips. She was sleeping like an angel on his arms. It's been a month since he had admitted to himself that he love her. It's been his routine to watch her sleeping every night. He felt contented by just hugging her tightly, it became his addiction. Beauty has been nothing but a sweet, loving wife to him.Pareho lang sila ng floor sa trabaho pero lagi niyang hinahap hanap ito. The clinic is just a few walks from his office, and every time he sees Hughens laughing with his wife he gets jealous. He sighed. Muling pinagmasadan ang asawa. Nakaharap ito sa kanya kaya malaya niyang nakikita ang maamo nitong mukha."I love you,"bulong niya. Hindi niya pa nasasabing mahal niya ito. Maybe when she wakes up. But right now, he will just be contented whispering those words to her.
Pagsapit sa damuhan ay umupo na siya."How are you?"lingon ni Hughens sa kanya na katabi na din niyang nakandian seat."Good,"tipid niyang tugon.Makalipas ang mahabang katahimikan ay muling nagsalita ito."It could have been us If I didn't left the country,"malungkot na sabi nito."I left because I though you're not ready. I know you love your family so much, and thought you have no time for any romantic relationship. But now,"he defeatedly combed his hair while looking at her intently."Hughens..."Hindi malaman ni Beauty kung anong sasabihin niya rito. She saw the hurt on his eyes. Hindi naman siya nagkulang r
THEYwere holding each other's hand when they arrived at home."I'll cook our breakfast,"nakangiting anunsiyo ni Beauty.Euh Jin nodded before going upstairs. Bago pumuntang kusina ay muli niyang nilabas ang kanyang selpon, at mataman pinagmasdan ang kanilang litrato. She was smiling while cooking their food. When she's done with the table and food set up she called up her husband. Nakaligo na ito nang bumaba para sabayan siya sa agahan. They ate in silence, with small talks at times."Let me do the washing,"boluntaryo nito. ":Just get ready and we'll be leaving soon.""Saan naman tayo pupunta?"takang tanong niya.
Beauty followed the sales associate as she led them to a bigger closet room where a bunch of signature clothes were hanging at each rack."Pili lang po kayo, Ma'am. Pwede niyo pong sukatin kung gusto niyo po,"bilin nito.She picked a dress that is fitted on top and flowy down. She wore it and smiled to her reflection at the life size mirror in front of her. Pagkuway narinig niya ang pagkatok sa pintuan."Ma'am, labas daw po kayo sabi ni Sir,"napilitan siyang lumabas ng fitting room to face her husband."You look wonderful, Ma'am."puno nang paghangang litanya sa kanya ng manager. She smiled at him. Nabura ang ngiti sa kanyang labi nang bumaling ang kanyang tingin sa a
Beauty saw the paper bags when she arrives at the living room. Mas lalo tuloy nag-init ang ulo niya."Hey,"hila ni Euh Jin sa kanya."Thank you, huh? Salamat sa mga ito. Nagustuhan ko, sobra."She laughed bitterly pointing the paper bags they've shopped."Now, you even made my feelings worst."Pumiksi siya rito at tinakbo ang kanilang kwarto.Humiga siya sa kama. She cried on the pillow. Bakit ba sa tuwing maayos na sila ay laging my nangyayari?She felt her body was lifted up, and Euh Jin carried and settled her on his lap.She struggled but he pinned her on his chest.
