Love, Cali

Chapter 8

Chapter 8

Hinatid ako ni Eidrian sa bahay around 9 pm. Inabutan namin si Dad sa sala na naghihintay sa akin.

Agad naman akong dumiretso sa kanya at yumakap.

"Thanks for waiting for me Dad," naka ngiti na sabi ko kay Dad.

Agad naman din nya akong nginitian at hinalikan sa noo.

Eidrian just smiled at him.

"Thanks for bringing my princess home Eidrian, nagdinner na ba kayo?" Tanong ni Dad sa kanya.

Eidrian is really close with my Dad, naging parang anak kasi nila ni Mom si Eidrian bago ako lumambas. Sinasabi pa nga ni Dad before na baka kay Eidrian pa ako pinaglihi ni Mom dahil lagi nyang gustong gustong makita si Eidrian nung ipinagbubuntis nya ako.

"Always Tito, yes po we dropped by earlier at greenhills to eat dinner. Alam nyo naman po si Calixsha nagiging parang monsted pag nagugutom. Takot ko nalang po na kainin nya ako," he playfully said to my Dad and then gave me a meaningful look.

Para namang nag echo sa utak ko ung salitang 'kainin nya ako'.

I am not really the girly girly type so you cant just expect me to blush and all but you know, I still feel those butterfly feelings in my stomach.

Its just that I am not really good in showing it, kaya din siguro naiisip nila na baka tomboy ako. But Eidrian knows that I am not.

Our body just felt so compatible.

Alam mo yon? It was like we are part of each other and the way I see it? Siguro dahil un sa tagal na naming dalawa na magkasama.

Siguro we were too comfortable with each other that we ended up experimenting.

He knows I am not a lesbian, among everyone else except my Dad he is the only person who knows me most.

"Thank you son, you never disappoint me." He said to Eidrian and then they do their signature fistbomb.

"Ofcourse Tito, like I say always. Magpapaalam na din po ako I still have to take care of somethings," paalam ni Eidrian kay Dad.

"Yes okay, Ijo. Take care, Cali anak ihatid mo na si Eidrian sa gate," naka ngiti na sabi nha sa akin.

Agad akong ngumiti kay Dad at nagpaalam.

"Yes po Dad," sagot ko naman kay Dad.

Naglakad na kami ni Eidrian papunta sa gate.

"Salamat sa paghatid." Tipid na sabi kp sa kanya at saka tumango.

He slowly pulled me and then planted a small kiss on my forehead.

"Good night Cali," he sweetly said before heading towards his car.

Para akong naestatwa sa kinatatayuan ko sa ginawa nya. I literally thought that I just froze there.

I am totally shocked.

He's always been like this to me.

Always been sweet and really caring.

Ganito na talaga sya sa akin, it was probably the reason too why I fell for him.

But now, I dont know if this is just pure hormones or what.

Ewan ko ba nakaka g.go lang din talaga kasi alam ko naman kung ano lang talaga kami.

And believe it or not, pinigilan ko pa yung nararamdaman ko kasi alam ko kung ano lang ang tingin nya sa akin pero umabot pa din kami sa puntong to, imagine kung hindi ko pa pinigilan di ba?

But these few days.

These dmn past few days it just keep on getting stronger.

My feelings keeps getting stronger.

I slowly slap myself a bit as I walk myself inside the house.

Pagdating ko sa kwarto ko I quickly freshen up and then took some of my meds then jumped to my bed.

I am still looking in the ceiling when I heard my phone beeped.

"Cal you still up?" It was a text from Eidrian and I immediately said yes.

After some minutes narinig ko na yunh ringtone ko so I guess he's calling me now.

What is wrong with this guy.

Wala na ba syang planong patulugin.ako?

You know everything that he's doing right now isnt helping me at all.

Pero ako eto isang alipin ng pagibig na mabilis.pa sa alas kwatro na sinagot ang tawag nya.

"Hey sleepyhead," bati nya sa akin..

" Ano nanaman Eidrian? Uso din matulog ha may try out pa ako bukas," masungit na sabi ko sa kanya.

Hanggang kaya ko, I will do everything that I can to help myself. Walang ibang tutulong sa akin kung hindi ako lang din para hindi man totally mawala eh mabawasan ko naman yung posibilidad na masaktan ako.

"I am just going to bid a good night to you, you are so grumpy woman. Wala ka naman sanang menstruation ngayon? I got a proof to that." Mayabang na sabi nya sa akin..

Well I bet he is smirking right now.

"You tasted so fine and sweet Cal, I wonder when I can have that taste again?" Tanong nya pa sa akin.

I couldnt help but held my breath for awhile!

" Nako Eidrian ako tigilan mo ha inaantok na ko kung puro kamanyakan lang ang lalabas dyan sa bibig mo eh good night na matutulog na ako!' masungit na sagot ko naman sa kanya.

He laughed happily,

"Yeah yeah, tatanda kang dalaga talaga. Nararamdaman ko! hahaha!" The as*hole said before ending his call.

See? Bakit hindi ko po protektahan ang sarili ko sa ganyang tao?

Tatandang dalaga.

That means he just dont see me being with someon not even him or maybe specially not him?

This is really, really frustrating!

I guess I really dont have a chance at all.

So you better leave something for yourself Calixsha, I reminded my stupid self.

Pagkagising ko sa umaga nagsimula na ako kaagad na gumaya maaga ang.klase ko ngayon luckily hindi yon natapat sa oras ng try out ko so I guess good for me right?

Pag baba ko sa kitchen inabutan ko si Dad na nagbabasa ng dyaryo habamg nagkakape.

I immediately went to him.

"Good morning Dad," I greeted him.

He immediately put the newspaper on the table and then gave a kiss on my forehead.

That has always been like this, palagi nya din sinasabi sa akin na never akong tatanda para sa kanya, and that I will always be his precious little princess.

Noong bata ako he rarely calls me princess siguro dahil hindi sya sure kung talaga bang princess ako or hindi. But as days passes by, he got to know him.more and he just realize that I really am a princess.

Never naging issue sa akin na wala akong nanay,.I envy those kids who have their moms but then who am I to complain?

My mom died because of giving birth to me.

She died because of choosing me over her very own self.

"Do you have plans today?" Dad asked me.

Tumango naman ako kaagad dahil gaya nga ng sabi ko.my whole afternoon was already committed.

"Ah yes po Dad,.may try out po ako this afternoon," sagot ko naman sa kanya.

He smiled and then nodded.

"Oh I was.hoping we can get a father daughter bonding, some other time then." Naka ngiti naman na sagot nya sa akin.

Na pa kunot naman ang noo ko sa sinabi nya.

"But I can back out from the try out Dad, if you wanna hang out then lets do it!" I happily told him.

Agad naman syang natawa sa sinabi ko.

"Silly, go ahead enjoy your remaining time as a teenager because one day you'll eake up being the next ceo of the company and you will probably have no time to race,".natatawang sabi nya sa akin.

Agad naman akong na pa iling sa sinagot nya.

"Dad naman eh," pagkontra ko sa kanya.

"I feel like you want to tell me something," I said as I look into his eyes.

Natawa naman sya sa itsura ko.

"Para kang babaeng Detective Conan anak ha? Hahaha wala I just want to talk to you thats it," naka ngiti na sabi nya sa akin.
