Si Promdi made at Si State side

Untitled Part 46

''Dito ka ba magpapasko?'' tanong ng nobya nya sa kanya.

She is busy cooking something for their lunch habang sya ay nakahiga na sa kanyang kama; topless habang ang kamay ay nasa ilalim ng ulo. Her on the other hand is busy chopping her engridients for her karekare at guisadong sulay na may halong fried fish. Promoted na ang nobya nya. From being his bantay, free loader and scholar ng lolo nya to cook. Malayo na talaga ang naabot ng ambisyosang froglets.

''Baka hindi siguro. May fashion show kasi kame on the twenty third and it will be held in london. Then will be flying to Argentina for another photo shoot. So i will not have time.'' while saying that, he studied her face closely. Kitang-kita nya ang lungkot at disappointment na dumaan sa mukha nito.

''Ah, ganun ba? Sayang.. Ako pa naman ang maghahanda ng noche buena dito. May listahan na nga ako eh. Kalahati pa naman sana ng lulutuin ko ay ang mga paborito mo.'' wika nito ng hindi kinababakasan ng kung ano mang emosyon.

Sa ilang buwan na hindi nila pagkikita at skype, text and call lang sila, alam na niya kung ano ang nasa loob nito. She is too transparent for her own good. Kahit di nito sabihin, alam niyang nagtatampo na ito sa kanya.

''Stop pouting, Swang. Hindi nakakatulong. Mas lalo kitang namimiss.'' nakangiting wika nya dito na sinagot lang nito ng irap.

''Nakakainis kasi, eh. Akala ko makikita na kita in less than a month, yun pala..'' wika nitong habang lalong pinahaba ang nguso.

She looks so cute and he couldn't help but smile. Hay.. How he wish she is just beside him right now.

''Don't worry, after all my commitments here, we will be together.'' Before he could even finish his sentence he saw someting that ruined his night.

His freak car racing cousin, behind his girlfriend. It wouldn't be a big deal kung hindi nito tinakpan ang mata ng nobya nya habang ang lapit-lapit ng mukha sa mukha ni Rostica! The heck with that!

''You better put some distance between you and my girlfriend if you still want to be able to hold a steering wheel, cousin.'' puno ng pagbabanta at kaseryosohan niyang wika. He just heard him laugh and his other cousins too.

''I told you it is not a good idea.''

''It was hillarious seeing his jealous face. I just can't help it.''

''Hi, cousin.'' Their older cousin said. Showing on the camera along with the other three.

''Don't worry Natey boy, we'll keep him on the leash. You will still have a girlfriend when you come home.'' natatawang wika ng isa sa mga ito.

''You better kasi hindi ako mangingiming ipa'chop-chop ang mga kotse nya pati sya if he don't put a good distance between him and my wife.'' he said still frowning. Napapailing naman na natatawa nalang sa kanya ang mga pinsan.

''Don't worry, cuz. Bago mo pa man man sya machop-chop, uunahan ka na nang Sabrina the witch nya.'' natatawang wika ng isang pinsan nya na ikinasimangot naman ng kanyang car obssess cousin.

''Kindly stop mentioning that witchs name.'' kunotnoong wika nito. Nagpatuloy lang sa pangaasar ang kanyang mga pinsan habang sya ang nakangiti lang na nakikinig sa mga ito. 

''Anyway, where is my Swang?'' nang hindi na nya makita sa screen ang nobya.

''She's cooking na. Tumataba kami dito dahil sa kanya.'' 

He couldn't help but feel proud of his girl's achivements. Nakakalungkot nga lang at hindi pa nya matitikman ang mga bago nitong natutunang putahe.

His cousin stayed and talk to him for a while bago nagpaalam ang mga ito. He was just left there staring at his woman's back while she is busy cooking. She seems happy doing it cause he can hear her humming a song. 

A song that seems to speak to his heart. Nakapikit at nakangiting pinapakinggan nya lang ang nobya. He felt so contented and happy that he's finally drifting to sleep. Pero bago pa sya makatulog ng mahimbing, he heard her spoke to him.

''I love you, Nate at hihintayin kita.'' Na lalong nagpasarap sa tulog nya.
