SANGRIA

Walang kamalay malay si Tedros na kanina pa ko nakatingin sa kanya.

Don't get me wrong. Badtrip pa rin ako sa lalaking to. I was just looking at him cause something in him seem different.

Its just that he looks kinda exhausted.. okay not kinda, totally exhausted.

Sure, he still have his dashing royalty looks but I can see in his eyes that he looks tired already. Sabagay, sino bang hindi mapapagod. Isang buwan mahigit na naming ginagawa tong kalokohan na to.

Puro kabalbalan na nga, hindi ko pa sya kinikibo. Minsan napapaisip na lang tuloy ako kung tuluyan ko na syang patatawarin. I mean, oo, nakabawi na sya. Ang dami na nyang sinuko para sa akin pero hindi ko pa rin sya mapatawad. The least I can give him is some love and concern, right?

Napansin ni Tedros na nakatingin ako sa kanya kaya nginitian nya ko.

"Yes, love? Anything wrong?" sambit nya.

Halos mautal naman ako dahil nahuli nya kong nakatingin sa kanya.

"W-Wala!" sagot ko.

"Okay. Whatever you say, love." he chuckled and he went back into answering his boring sudoku on a boring Sunday newspaper.

Yes. Today is a Sunday and he doesnt have work. It means, magkasama kami buong araw ngayon.

The kettle then whistled and I poured him his coffee.

Ano nga bang kadalasang ginagawa namin pag linggo? Wala. Magtago sa mga tao para di kami mahuli. But this time is different. Binaba ni Tedros ang dyaryo nya para tanungin ako.

"Hey Sangre, wanna go out today?"

Napaso ako ng mainit na takure tapos ng tanong nya.

"A-Aray! A-Ano?" pagkkumpirma ko.

"I asked, if you want to go out today. You must bored here already, what do you think?"

Napakibit balikat ako sa sinabi ni Tedros.

"A-Akala ko ba di tyo pwede maglabas labas?" sagot ko sa kanya.

"Sangre, its been more than a month now. I think once in a while will do us good."

Napaisip ako sa sinabi ni Tedros. Well, I actually need a different environment already. Im so darn bored in the four corners of this household.

Pero kung lalabas kami, ano namang gagawin namin? Saan naman?

"How about we have a date, then?" dugtong pa ng lalaki kaya napatingin ako sa kanya.

A date? A date and then what? I will fall for him again? Then what? He will shut me out when the worst scenario comes?

I cant have that. Wala na kong pupuntahan pag nangyari yon. Wala na kong pamilya at nakatira ako sa ibang kaharian.

Hindi perpekto tong pagsasama namin ni Tedros. Alam ko magaaway at magaaway din kami.

First, our relationship is confusing, second, its a mess, bukod dun may tinatago pa ako sa kanya.

Si Hermes. Baka magwala nanaman tong lalaking to pag nalaman nyang pumupunta si Prinsipe Hermes dito sa bahay namin ng hindi nya alam. You know how Tedros is with his temper.

But I dont have a choice right? If I tell him that Hermes know who we are, he will decide that we will leave this Kingdom and if we leave, Hermes will hunt us down.
