Kissing My Kryptonite [GL-Sapphics]

Chapter 11 - Spellbound

KISSING MY KRYPTONITE

"...I thought you're just good at kicking my knees, you're capable of sweeping off my feet too."

The art of sweeping off someone's feet is one of my hidden skills-I've mastered it for many ages, I have even proven and tested it to a number of everyone else. Tapos mananaginip ako about confessing to someone because she..you-know-who swept me off my feet?!

Dumapa ako pahiga at lalong binaon ang muka sa pillow ko because the dream felt so real, it's strange that I wanna beat myself up about the fact na walang katotohanan 'yon lahat..kahit pakiramdam ko totoo lahat ng 'yon.

Despite having a lot of women who've become my ex-girlfriends and flings, I've never tried confessing to anybody or any of them because I told myself that I'll just do it when I'm already head over heels or if I like that person very much.

The woman in my dreams..

I really don't like her but I admit, overtime she's slowly gaining my high respect. She keeps making me think whenever she's around or not, she's always giving me something to think about. I never know where her influence stops..she's a human logic.

I threw the pillow somewhere sa inis dahil kahit ano'ng pikit ko muka niya pa rin nakikita ko and slowly...I opened my eyes, muka niya pa rin?!

My eyes widen, "Grandma-ma'am-"

Sinubukan kong umilag sa pillow na hinagis ko lang kanina na ngayon ay padarag na bumalik sa muka ko dahil sa kanya.

Nakaupo siya ngayon sa isang black leathered office chair, abalang sinusuot ngayon 'yung black heels niya pagkatapos niyang ibato sa 'kin 'yung unan.

"Do take this as a last warning: the next time you utter anything like that, I will not hesitate to crush your mouth."

"With your lips?"

"Knuckles.."

Biro lang eh, I frowned hugging the soft pillow and buried my face on it again. Ang bango eh, kasing amoy niya. It's sweet and comforting.

"This is not your house, Veneracion," she nonchalantly said. "Wag kang abusado.."

Natauhan ako bigla when she said that, bumalikwas ako sa pagkabigla. I look around realizing that I'm not really in my room and she's not just a mere dream..she's real! Dang?

Dumapo ang mga mata ko sa tea table kung saan nakapatong roon 'yung phone ko, it's because I heard it buzzed.

Hindi pa nga pala ito deadbat so I checked it, andaming missed calls from different numbers. By continually checking the call logs, the last call was taken and it's from my dad's number.

I looked up to Professor Cordova na kanina pa ako pinapanood.

"Ikaw sumagot ng call, ma'am?"

She nodded, "I informed him you were with me lastnight."

Nanlaki mata ko, "Did you tell him I was drunk-"

"No," maikling sagot niya. "I slept in Blue's room, I answered the call kasi rinig sa kabilang kwarto ringtone ng phone mo. I told Mr. Veneracion you were with me because of the one-on-one thing.."

Bakit hindi niya ako sinumbong? Wait..alam na ni dad? That I'm studying in Cambridge? Seriously?!

Muli ay nagbasa ako ng received messages from Cash, mga unopened chats na alas otso pa kagabi niya ni-send then followed by missed calls hanggang alas dose ng madaling araw. Andami kong messages from my relatives and friends pero mas inabala ko 'yung galing kay Cash at mom muna.
