THE LOVER : Lucius Marco

[Diecisiete] WONDER

Emmanuela woke up due to the sound of alarm clock on the side table. She rubs her eyes after hearing the familiar sound then slams her hand on it to turn it off. Napaupo siya sa kama at napalingon lingon. Napagtanto na nasa loob siya ng kwarto niya. Clueless and confused, she scratched her head as she tries to remember what happened last night.

"Oh god!" She grabbed the pillow beside her then immediately buries her face on it. Her face heating up, obviously flustered with the event from last night.

I did that?! WE did that?! Fuck. REALLY?!

"But wait, what if its just a dream— FUCK!" She straightened her back but when she did, she felt something sore on her waist then she hisses in pain.

Pouting, Guess it wasn't. She thought.

Ilang minuto nakaupo si Emmanuela sa kama niya habang inaalala ang nangyari kagabi then... She smiled.

Odd but she felt... genuinely happy

Although. "Oww.." She rubs her waist again as she felt it getting sore in every move she does. "Damn, ganito pala kasakit?" She hisses as she kept on rubbing her waist.

She stepped out from her room the moment she finished taking a bath. She woke up quite early so there's no need to rush.

Aaminin niya, she lowkey expects Lucius to be in her kitchen cooking breakfast. Just like those in romantic stories. Guess it'll remain fictional then.

She leans on the counter as she waits for her toast to finish. Parang tanga kung makangiti si Emmanuela habang iniisip ang nangyari kagabi.

Tila bang may mahika ang mga haplos ni Lucius, para bang nag-iwan ng bakas ang mga dulo ng daliri ni Lucius sa katawan ni Emmanuela na hanggang ngayon ay nararamdaman pa din niya.

*ting*

Along with the sound of the notification on her phone, she was struck with her own realization. She facepalms.

"Tangina, Emmanuela. Mali 'yon." Bulong niya sa sarili niya. She cupped her own cheeks then pats it afterwards. "Fuck, sobrang mali non." Ulit niya.

"But,"

I love your everything, amor.

DUGDUGDUGDUGDUG. This is odd. What is this feeling?

Her expression crumbled as a smell of something burning enters her nose. She immediately glances at her toast then her eyes widened by the sight of it burning. "Shit!" Hurriedly, she pulled the plug out. She sighed as she took out the burnt toast.

"Porkchop," She slaps her forehead. "Wag nalang kumain." Bulong niya sa sarili at kinuha ang mga gamit niya at tuluyan nang umalis sa bahay.

"Aray.." Mahinang bulong ni Emmanuela habang hawak hawak ang balakang niya. She can still feel it being sore. It was her first time afterall.

Her mind is currently filled with Lucius last night and the pain of her waist.

"Ems!" Agad napalingon si Emmanuela sa direksyon kung saan niya narinig ang boses at bahagyang napangiti nang makita si Kyline at Frudo.

Finally, I missed them. "Hey." She waved her hand at them. Agad naman napalaki ang mata ni Emmanuela nang bigla itong yakapin ng mahigpit ni Kyline sa balakang nang sanhi ng bahagyang maluha si Emmanuela dahil sa sakit na nararamdaman niya.

"ARaY—"

"WAAAAA! NA MISS KITA, EMS. I'M SORRY. I'M SO SORRY! HINDI KO NAMAN SINASADYA GANON ANG MASASABI KO EH. HINDI KO NAMAN NAISIP NA GANON ANG PAGKAKAINTINDI MOOOOO, I'M SORRYYYY!" Kyline whined nonstop.
