Chapter 103: Cupcakes

Khiena's Pov

Kahit na pagod na pagod ako mula sa photoshoot namin kahapon ay kailangan ko pa ring gumising ng maaga. HIndi dahil sa may klase ako, eh wala akong klase ngayon. 

Kailangan kong gumising ng maaga para gumawa ng cupcakes.

I'm here at the kitchen, preparing the materials that I might need nang tumunog ang aking cellphone.

Ate Khiena? It's me Angel. I just want you to know na nasa syudad na rin ako. I'm not expecting you to meet me but I am still hoping na magkikita ulit tayo. Ingat palagi ate

Napapikit ako ng mariin at napahinga ng malalim matapos kong basahin ang mensahe.

I think it's time to forgive and move on right?

Hindi dapat ako nagtatago ng sama ng loob. At kung ang Diyos nga ay nagpapatawad, ako pa kaya na tao lang?

Forgiving people is easy but forgetting is hard. 

Actually, pwede mo rin namang hindi makalimutan iyon, ang importante ay nagpatawad ka at nagmove on.

We can't go freely in the future kung hindi tayo magmomove on. That worst past would only drag us down, so it's better to move on.

*Sigh* "I think mamaya ko na lang siya rereplyan. Pag di na ako busy" I told myself at ibinulsa na ang cellphone.

Then I continued preparing the materials.

"Good morning Misa"

"Good morning Usui"

*Yawn* "You'll teach me" Zavriel, said.

I smiled. "Syempre. O, habang hinahanda ko ang mga baking tools, ihanda mo na rin iyong mga ingredients. Nandiyan sa lamesa yung recipe"

"Okie"

*****

"Here we go, come with me
There's a world out there that we should see
Take my hand, close your eyes
With you right here, I'm a rocketeer Let's fly~" 

Habang gumagawa ay hindi ko napipigilan ang sarili ko na hindi kumanta.

I was putting the batter on the cupcake pan, habang si Zavriel naman ay naglalagay na ng icing sa mga cupcakes na naluto na.

Mabilis lang rin naman siyang turuan. Like I only explained and demonstrated once tapos nakuha agad niya.

I even asked him if nakapaglagay na ba siya ng icing sa mga cakes dati but he said no. So I guess, He's just a fast learner?

Nang matapos ko ng lagyan ng batter ang cupcake pan ay inilagay ko na ito sa oven para maluto na ito. Pagkatapos ay tumulong na rin ako kay Zavriel na maglagay ng icing.

I was so focused on putting some icing on top f the cupcakes but I could still see through my peripheral that Zavriel was staring at me. 

I'm not even sure if he's aware that he's smiling while staring at me.

Why is he even staring at me? May dumi ba ako sa mukha?

"Ay hala" biglang sabi ko nang madikit ang aking daliri sa icing. Now my finger has icing.

Napailing na lang ako at napabuntong hininga. Then I licked the icing on my fingers. "Hmm"

*Gulp*

Napalingon ako sa kasama ko nang marinig ko ang malakas na paglunok niya. 

"Don't lick your fingers that way in front of any other guys" He told me at para bang awkward na inilayo niya pa ang kanyang tingin.

Kumunot naman ang aking noo nang hindi ko naintindihan sinabi niya. I mean, what does he mean by that ba?

"Why?" I asked.

He then faced me and stared right into my eyes, then my lips. "Coz they might kiss you" he said and then he looked away.

I nodded at naintindihan ko naman na ang ibig niyang sabihin.

So wait, does that mean, licking my fingers would look sexy in front of others?

And... Did he--- hmmm..

"Hey Zavriel" I called him.

Itinigil naman niya ang kanyang ginagawa at humarap sa akin. "Yes?"

"Did you find it sexy when I licked my finger earlier?" I smirked. 

Pagtripan ko nga siya hehe. "Were you turned on by that simple action?" I asked and came closer to him. 

He just stood there and did not speak. He just gulped. "S-stop it Misa"

"Why do you keep calling me Misa?" I asked. "My name Khiena is much more sexier to say" 

"Misa stop it"

"Why? You don't even like me so it's impossible for you to be turned on or what"

Mas napangisi ako nang kagatin niya ang kanyang ibabang labi.

Gosh Khiena! Stop it! He looks sexy in it!

"How can you say that?" he asked, raising one brow.

"Because you're gay?" Nanlaki ang aking mga mata sa gulat nang bigla niya akong hilahin upang mas mapalapit pa sa kanya.

He put his hand around my waist and he leaned closer. "What did you just call me?"

"G-gay?"

"And you said earlier I don't like you?"

"Y-yun naman talaga diba?"

I can't move, honestly. And I don't even know what to do. 

Para bang nablangko ang aking pag-iisip. 

"No Khiena. What's the purpose of me kissing you? And take note note, it's not just once"

"K-Kiss? S-so you mean--" I was cut off and my eyes even grew wider when his lips touched mine.

I don't know if this is a dream or what. But please be real! 

Then I slowly closed my eyes to feel this moment.

After a few seconds, our lips parted and we stared into each other's eyes. "I like you. That's why I kissed you. Now, are you mine?"

"I... I.... uhm..."

What should I say?!

"What?" He asked as he smirked.

"I'm yours"

Then he hugged me tight. "You're my girl now"

"H-ha? W-were dating already? T-teka. Parang hindi pa nagpaprocess sa utak ko"

Did we really just kissed? Kami na ba talaga?! 

Teka! Isa pa! Zavriel isa pang halik please! Let me taste your sweet soft pinkish lips again!

He chuckled. "Yes. We're dating now, cupcake" he said and winked at me. "Let's continue baking. You need to earn money right?"

Owshit. Oo nga pala!

Gago kasing halik yan!
