Recuerdos
"Ken-ken let's play! You promised me we're going to play hmp!" she said while sitting on the floor while stamping her feet. Impatiently waiting, the little girl removed her Barbie sandals and throw it anywhere. Crossing her cute chubby arms, she looked intently at her big brother. "You promised me we are going to play!Tu promotes! You promised me! You promised me!"
"Give me thirty minutes okay? Big bro is just going to finish his homework." she ignored her big brother as she looked aways while pouting and murmuring. His brother just stood up and messed her hair.
"Ken-ken stop it!" but his brother just laughed at her as he kissed her forehead. "Laters Barbie!"
HE CLOSED his eyes as he breathes deeply. There are really a lot of things in this life that no matter how eager you are to forget, fate has its own way to bring back all the memories. Because beautiful or not, those memories are worth remembering. Not the scenarios but the people you are with. Those last seconds are very precious. More than diamonds, more than golds. But those memories are like daggers, reminiscing them is suicidal.
Even if being with all of you on my dreams are heaven, I cannot deny the fact that it feels like hell.
'Cause you're guilty. His mind uttered. I will forever be.
Well..if forever really exist in the first place.
After another deep breath, he just laughs at himself. He just chuckled and drink his beer just to realize that the can is already empty. He stood up to get another one when beer was placed on the mini table in front of him.
Wearing her Dior off-shoulder white summer dress partnered with her cream Bohemian hat, she graced the garden with her simple and exquisite beauty. Her beautiful long slick jet black hair shines more and her big curls wave gracefully.
Beautiful.
"Done checking me out?" she asked before she sipped her tea.
"Tsk. Why would I?" He will die first before he admits it. He still cannot get over on what happened last time. Who would have thought that this angel-faced lady has a monstrous punch! And what's worst is, he cannot remember when that happened. Because after he lost his conscience, he lost count about the date and time.
"Can you just tell me what is the date today if you're not going to give me my phone?" he asked as he started to get pissed.
But instead of answering, the latter just smiled.
"Nice talking!" he looked at her intimidatingly, hoping that she will get intimidated.
Several minutes passed by but the lady just continuously sipped her tea like he's not looking at her.
"I will leave if you didn't answer me" the lady shrugged her shoulders as she looked at him with questioning eyes.
Rios just messed his hair because he is slowly getting frustrated.
"You know what Miss, I am an attorney. Before coming here, there are a lot of cases I'm dealing with. I know I'm handsome and being with me under one roof completes your day. But I have other responsibilities too?! Who will feed Red Velvet? Lemon? and my cute Black Forest? Who will feed my children?" he touched his cheeks using both hands as he imagined his cats crying for food." How about there monthly checkup? Who will bathe them?! Don't you have a heart?" he poutingly looked at the lady.
But instead of answering the lady just laughed.
"Baliw ka ba?" (Are you crazy?)
"B-baliw?" the lady confusingly uttered while looking blankly in front thinking deeply.
"Wait." Rios looked him confused.
"Are you even listening to me?"
"Hmm." she answered as she takes another sip. The wind blows coldly and her hair gets messed up. She fixed it and placed them on one side of her shoulder before looking at him but before he can even answer the guy, the wind blows again and her Bohemian hat flew. Due to this, her hair gets messed up even more.
"Tsk! Don't you have a ponytail? Your hair is too long, you should always bring one!" Rios moved to her back which makes Faith confused. The wind blew again but before she can fix her hair again, a pair of hands move skillfully to fixed her hair.
Rios get the handkerchief on his cargo shorts as he slowly and carefully twists her hair.
"You are very rich but you cannot even afford a ponytail?" Rios continuously complains without noticing that he is already done braiding.
"There you go! What a long hair! Gupitan natin you want?" (Let's cut it, you want?)
"Want what?"confused, the lady looked up at him while he is leaning down at her placing his hands on the backrest of the chair. Caught off guard , Rios found himself looking intently again at the lady's face.
Her dark and beautiful eyes look so damn sexy with her long and thick eyelashes. Her lips parted like it is inviting me for a kiss.
"Want what?"
"Tsk nevermind." he lazily said as he slowly gets drowned by her eyes.
He removed the baby hairs on her face to clearly see her.
His callous hands seem too hard for her soft baby milk skin. He cupped her face with both hands and leaned closer.
The latter looks so innocent as she looked up to him. Is she aware that one more inch closer then our lips will already touch?
Seconds passed and still, nothing happens.
Contentment. That is what he felt.
If this were other girls, maybe they are already doing 'something.
But he doesn't feel any lust at all. Just pure contentment. Because by just looking at her eyes, he felt the peace that was once robbed from him since that incident happened.
It's too peaceful but why does he felt his heart beating so damned hard like it was hammered.
This feeling is too good for me that it hurts.
Can something so right feel so wrong all along?
"Am I really that beautiful that it'll take you ten minutes to check my face out?"
Her lips move sexily as she speaks. He gulped. He is about to tease her back when she remembered something!
He smirked.
She's seducing me.
But I know better. I have been living in this palace for I don't know days but I know them so well. One more move and I know I will be six feet under. This feeling almost makes me forget that this palace is heavily guarded and seconds from now, the great butler of this lady will definitely kick my ass if she saw me holding her greatness.
"You can't fool me. No no no no no way!" he hissed before he moves closer and pinched the cheeks of Faith who is more than shocked.
Damn it she's so cute!
Fortunately, he was able to stop himself. Thanks to the great butler who is now running after him with 2 Desert Eagle pistol on her hands.
Minutes passed, and they are still running until he finally escaped her. And that moment is when he realized that he was already lost in the forest behind the palace.
There's a forest here? He asked himself. He has been visiting this place for years but he never knew that there is a forest behind the palace.
He started walking to find his way back. But hours passed and he's still lost.
Damn it! Where am I?
He was so pissed because he has been walking for hours. Due to exhaustion and hunger, he decided to rest and fell asleep.
"You promised me!Nangako ka!Tu prometes!"
"You promised me!Nangako ka!Tu prometes!"
"You promised me!Nangako ka!Tu prometes!"
That dream again. Unknowingly, tears are flowing down his face. I'm just happy for a few minutes a while ago, why do I need to cry again?
"Bigbrother, why is rainbow called rain?" her little sister asked. Back then he doesn't know why. He doesn't even care. But know he knew the answer. Rain is like tears, but sometimes it doesn't mean sadness. Rain is like tears because sometimes it was shred due to happiness. Because in order to have a rainbow, there should be rain. In order to be happy, there should be a pain.
Sadly, I was late to realize it. I lost the rainbow before it even rains. Rain, rain please don't go away. Come back to me and bring back my rainbow. He uttered to himself as he loses his consciousness again.
"Why do you always faint?" no choice, a woman just carry him and place him in the chopper before driving back to the palace.
She smiled to herself, "Finally, it's happening."
