War of Hearts

Kabanata 40

Hi! This is the last chapter of War of Hearts! Sorry for not updating. Been busy with school works. Thanks for patiently reading my story! It's really long lol. I've learned a lot of things in writing and would apply those aspect for the rest of the books in my series and the stories I'd like to unfold.

Sa kuwarto ni Earl kami natulog. I am so tired that I just took off the dress and slept with my panties on.

After Earl took a shower, naramdaman ko ang paglubog ng kama at ang init ng katawan niya ay dumapo sa tiyan ko. Nakatalikod ako sa kanya at nahihiyang humarap sa kanya.

Walang hiya din akong nakasuot lang ng panty e. Yung bra ko in-unhook ko lang. Tinatabunan lang ng puting comforter ang katawan ko.

Binaba ni Earl ng kaunti ang comforter at ginapang ang kamay niya upang maipulupot sa aking tiyan. My face flushed at his sudden gesture. It made me weak and the butterflies in my stomach made me tired to the point I fell asleep in his warm embrace.

Nagising na lang ako nang maramdaman ang pagtayo ni Earl. Binuksan niya ang kurtina ng kuwarto at kita kong may kaunting liwanag na ang langit but it's still dark.

I am still half asleep at may muta pa sa mata ko. Inayos ko ang aking sarili at naupo sa kama. I also fixed the hook of my bra. Nakatalikod si Earl sa akin at ang saplot niya lang ay ang itim na boxers.

Nagising ang diwa ko dahil sa magandang tanawin sa harap ko. His butt is so rounded I almost choke. Narinig niya siguro ang pag-uga ng kama kaya hinarap niya ako.

The faint light from the rising sun is illuminating his immaculate face. The shadow of his features define his oddly handsome foreign face like a statue of a greek god.

"Mornin'" his morning bed room voice didn't escape my hearing.

"Morning!" Maligaya kong sabi. I even scrunched my nose to see how jolly I am.

"We'll have breakfast at the seaside."

Nakita niya ang pagtataka sa mga mata ko. Seaside? What?!

Tumayo ako para magkaroon ng mas maayos na view ng labas. Namilog ang mata ko nang tabihan ko siya dahil mula sa bintana ng kuwarto niya ay tanaw ang malawak na karagatan.

I didn't know his room is facing their backyard and the endless ocean.

"Wow." I spoke without thinking. Naramdaman ko na lang ang pagpulupot ng braso ni Earl sa akin galing likod. He showered my neck with soft feathery kisses. I tilted my head to give him access.

"Lumaki ako na ang tanawing nakagisnan ay bukirin. Ngayong naandito ako, ang sarap pa lang tumitig sa dagat buong araw." I lazily smiled at the perfect view in front of us.

"Hmm," Earl slid his hand on my under boobs, dahilan nang paglingon ko sa kanya.

"Do you want to live here?"

I sighed and turned once again at the ocean. "Yeah."

"Then we'll build our own house near the beach. How's that sound?" Marahas akong bumaling sa kanya nang sabihin niya iyon.

Words cannot describe the shockness in my expression. His laugh vibrated throughout my back as he hugged me tighter as if I'd disappear in just a second and the dream of his future would fade eventually.

Inangat niya ang kamay ko kung nasaan ang singsing na ibingay niya sa akin.

"You know what this ring signifies for, right?"
