Home, Sweet Home (GxG)

2: Maddie

GIA'S POINT OF VIEW

Yep, as always, we lie in the couch, hoping something hard will fell off our face and get the chores done.

Procrastination at itz finest~

"Mads, gusto mo bang lumabas?"

Naglalaro lang sya sa phone nya ng online game simula umaga hanggang hapon. Napabuntong-hininga na lang ako.

"Mads."

"Wait lang, naglalaro ako."

You have been slain.

She looked at me like it was all my fault. "What?" Napataas ako ng kilay. She rolled her eyes and stood up.

"Mads, gawan mo rin ako."

"Anong gawan? Hindi ako gagawa ng iced-coffee noh. Magc-cr ako." She went.

"Sama ako."

"No."

I pouted. Kinuha ko yung phone nya at ako na lang ang naglaro. Damn, gamit nya si Kagura, hindi ako sanay dito.

You have slain an enemy!

Hindi ko napansin na nakaupo na pala sya sa paanan ko. Ang bilis nyang mag-cr.

Double kill!

Triple kill!

Maniac!

I made a smug face at her. Look at that annoyed face. Hahaha!

"What~? Mas magaling ako kaysa sayo~? Hmm~?" Ngisi ko.

"Tch." Humiga sya ulit at nagpatuloy sa paglalaro. Halatang nainis sya. Hahaha!

"Mads! C'mon! Pansinin mo ako!" Hinila ko yung paa nya pero hindi nya pa din ako pinapansin.

"Mads!"

Still no answer. She kept playing. "Bahala ka, di ako titigil!" I poked her cheek. Wala pa din, hindi nya pa din ako pinapansin.

Ah ganon.

I poked her face again, and again, and again.

"Gia, wait lang." Tumalikod sya sakin. "I need attention~" Sumingit ako sa mga kamay nya.

"Gia. Stop. Naglalaro pa ako."

Kinulit ko pa rin sya.

I won't stop, you smol.

"Gia! Tsk!" Tumayo na sya at tinigil na lang nya ang paglalaro. Nyahahahahahahaha! See! Di mo rin ako matitiis!

"Ano ba? Anong gusto mo?"

"Ampon tayo pussy." I puppy eyed.

"What? Hindi ka pa ba kuntento sakin?" Mukhang nagtaka sya at nagulat.

"Ano bang nasa utak mo? I mean, pusa." Tawa ko ng malakas. "Oh.. sorry! Linawin mo kasi!!" Napabaluktot sya ng higa sa couch habang yakap ang isang unan. Tinatago nya ang mukha nya.

"I stopped my game for this..?" She sniffed. Aww, nagdadrama na naman ang aking reyna~

"C'mon, sweetie. I'll play with you later." Ngiti ko habang yakap ko sya.

"B-bakit kasi biglang gusto mong magampon ng pusa?!"

"Hmm? Nothing. Anti-depressant, I guess." I replied.

"H-hindi ba ako sapat..?"

"Nyah, just want some cutie here."

"H-hindi ba ako c-cute..?"

"You're cute as hell. Don't be like that. I love you so much." Niyakap ko sya ulit at hinalikan sa pisngi nya at balikat. She really is soft.

"G- Gia..."

"C'mon, honey. You're still the one I love the most." I kissed her again.

"H- hindi ako mahilig sa pusa.." She finally looked at me.

"It's okay. Mamahalin mo rin yun pagtagal." Ngiti ko naman.

She sighed and sat next to me. "Okay."

"Wah? Talaga? I was just kidding.."

"Ano ba! Magaampon ba tayo o hindi!?"

"Magaampon nga, sabi ko."

Later that afternoon, pumunta kami agad sa pet shop at bumili ng cat foods, a single cat bed, at yung inuman nya ng tubig, and a filter.

"What a nice kitty." Hinimas ko ang likod ng pusang naampon namin. It has a cute face, probably every cat in this world. But she's an angel~

"Anong ipapangalan mo sakanya?" She asked, "Maddie." Tumingin sya agad sakin. "Bakit Maddie?"

"She's cute as you~" Ngiti ko. Just a simple cat, a siamese would always be my favorite. She's abandoned by her old owners.. so, yeah, ended up at the pet care.

Napabuntong-hininga na lang sya at naglakad na kami papuntang sasakyan.

Pinakawalan ko agad si Maddie sa bahay at alam kong sa una, maninibago sya.

"Welcome home, Maddie!" I kissed her head, she dodged.

Natawa si Mads.

"Syempre bago pa lang sya dito. At alam kong pagkakatiwalaan nya din tayo, sooner, or later." I poked her small nose. "Right, Maddie?"

She sniffed my finger.

"That's your responsibility, Gia."

"What? This is our baby."

"N--- haaa. Okay, fiiiiine."

I grinned.

"You'll love her soon." I winked.
