《Questionable Love》19

Hindi na namin namamalayan ang oras dahil sa dinami-dami ng mga basahin.Basa dito basa doon.
"Sara,ikaw na muna mag-bukas"Sigaw ni Sam habang abala sa ginagawa niya.
Agad naman akong tumayo para buksan ang pinto,pagka-bukas ko ay agad na bumungad sa akin ang mabangong pabango ni Bong at malawak niyang ngiti.
"May binabasa ka pa?"Tanong niya ng yakapin niya ako na agad ko namang ginantihan.
"K'unti na lang"Sagot ko naman habang bumitaw na sa yakap."Bakit?"
Bumuntong hininga muna siya bago sumagot"Let's go out,I miss you"
"Anong I miss you?eh kaka celebrate lang natin ng 3rd monthsary kahapon"Natatawang sagot ko naman.
Nataw naman siya ng tipid"Plsssss"pagpupumilit niya pa"Sa condo ko na lang or dito mag-babasa na lang tayo"
"Sa condo mo na lang maiirita lang 'yong dalawa"Natatawang sabi ko.
3rd monthsary na pala namin kahapon.Sa isang private resort lang kami ng celebrate,we spend their for 2 days and one night.
"Pasok ka muna"Sabi ko sa kan'ya at agad naman siyang sumunod.
"Hi Bong,gutom daw si Sara"Bungad ni Rye kay Bong kaya agad akong tinignan ni Bong gamit ang nagtatakang mata.
"'wag kang maniwala 'jan,kakakain ko lang"Depensa ko ka agad."Tsaka kay Martin ka manghingi"
Tumawa lang si Rye habang si Sam ay busy pa din parang walang pakialam kung may pumasok ba o wala.
Kinuha ko na agad ang mga kailangan ko,dali dali naman akong tinulungan ni Bong sa pagbitbit ng mga kailangan ko.
"Oh, sa'n kayo pupunta?"Nagtatakang tanong ni Rye.
"Sa unit niya"maikling sagot ko naman.
Binigyan niya lang ako ng makahulugang tingin ganoon din si Sam kaya iniripan ko lang ang dalawa.
Pina-una ko nang lumabas si Bong dahil naiihi pa ako.Pagka-labas ko ng CR ay agad akong kinurot ni Sam.
"Ano ba!?"Iritadong tanong ko.

"Ikaw ha,baka sa OB-Gyne ka na magpa-basa sa susunod na linggo ah"nanunuksong sabi ni Sam.
Agad ko siyang hinampas pero tumawa lang silang dalawa.
"An'dumi ng isip n'yo"Sabi ko ng talikuran ko sila.Narining ko pa ang mga tawa nila bago isirado ang pinto.
"Love,Mom wants to met you"Sabi ni Bong ng pumasok na kami ng elevator na agad kong kinagulat."Lalo na si Manang,are you free next week?"
Kahit kinakabahan tumango ako ng marahan"Siguro?"alanganing sagot ko.
Ewan ko ba at bigla akong kinabahan do'n,I already met lot of people,'di nga mga basta bastang mga tao eh.Naranasan ko na ding maipakilala sa mga magulang,itong kay Bong lang talaga ako kinabahan.Sa pagkaka-alam ko kase ay botong boto ang parents ni Bong kay Liza and guess what?ang yaman ng pamilya ni Liza lalo na sila Bong.
May pera naman kami,isang lawyer din ang tatay ko.Pero malayo pa din sa pamilya ng dalawa.
"Hey, don't worry.Kilala ka na ni Mom"Naka-ngiting sabi sa akin ni Bong bago ako halikan sa noo.
Pagpasok namin sa loob ay agad kong nasinghap ang panlalaking pabango ni Bong.
Wala namang masyadong nag-bago sa unit niya bukod sa mga litrato namin na halos lahat ng pader ay mapuno na.
"Wait lang,Love.Kunin ko lang ang libro ko"pagpapa-alam niya na agad ko namang tinanguan.
Mauupo na sana ako kaso nahagip ng mga mata ko ang isang medyo bukas na drawer sa gilid ng malaking TV.Binuksan ko 'yon no'ng una akala ko ay mga CD lang ang laman no'n pero no'ng isasara ko na sana ay napansin kong mga lukot na litrato.Litrato 'yon ni Bong at Liza kasama ang pamilya ng dalawa.Kitang kita sa mga mata nila kung gaano sila ka saya.
Agad kong iyong binalik sa drawer at dali daling sinarado ng marinig ko ang pag-sarado ni Bong sa pinto ng kwarto niya.

Nauna akong maupo sa may sofa at agad niya naman akong dinaluhan.At umaktong parang walang pinake-alaman.
"Love"tawag niya sa akin.
"Hmnnn?"
"Kahapon ko sana to ibibigay kaso ...naiwan ko dito"awkward na sabi niya habang pinapakita sa akin ang isang mamahaling bracelet.
Hindi pa man ako nakaka-sagot ay agad na niya iyong kinabit sa kanan kong kamay."Mahal na mahal kita"sabi niya bigla sa akin habang ini-lock ang bracelet.
"Mahal"'yon lang lumabas sa bibig ko at niyakap niya na ako bigla.
Halo-halo ang naging reaksyon ko habang magka-yakap kami.Marami ding tanong ang naglalaro sa isipan ko.Bumalik na naman ang mga tanong ko no'ng panahong nililigawan pa lang ako ni Bong.Na pa'no kung ginagamit niya nga lang ako?
Napabalik lang ako sa realidad ng punasan ni Bong ang mata ko gamit ang hinlalaki niya.
"Shhhhh,'wag ka na umiyak."Pag-aalalo niya sa akin bago ako pinasandal sa matigas niyang dibdib."My baby is still a cry baby"natatawang sabi niya.
"Thank you"wika ko habang pilit ina-alis sa isipan ko ang mga bagay na naging dahilan para pumatak ang luha ko.
"Shhhh,you don't need to thank me.I should be the one to thank you."Malambing na sabi niya sa akin dahilan para tignan ko siya gamit ang nagtatakang mata"Tinaggap mo ako kahit ang pangit ng nakaraan ko,kahit halos linggo ay napapalit ako ng babae.But you still gave me a chance.I promise I won't waste it"

Viridescent Core
Some mortals see dungeons as a plague to destroy. Some mortals see dungeons as a resource to manage and harvest. Some mortals see dungeons as a place to train and advance. However, all of them agree on something. Dungeons are unnatural and deadly. Places where death stalks every corner and monsters thrive. What mortals forget, in their hubris of tools and civilizations, is that Mother Nature is often the deadliest of all. Feel free to write any comment, suggestion, or criticism. I read and appreciate every single one! Releases are on Mondays and Thursdays. With occasional bonus chapters on Saturdays. Have a nice day ^^

Kreig Goes Apesh*t (An AU of Returning to No Applause)
An AU of my previous story, Returning to No Applause, that asks the simple question of "What if it all went wrong?" When Kreig first appears on Earth again, after being stranded in another world for 130 years, he finds himself faced with weapons and guns. In a fit of instinct, he accidentally murders one of the many Fighters, causing what can only be described as a massacre to take place. The story that follows this simple premise is completely opposed to the one told before, focusing less on character improvement and more so degradation. It should come as no surprise that I personally recommend reading the OG story before checking this one out, and if you've already done so, great! Swell havin' ya! Any such readers might remember that I mentioned writing a story like this a while back, and... Here we are. This is in no way a continuation or sequel, nor will it be very long. Expect around 15 chapters at most depending on various factors. All and all, the 5-page length will remain the same (apart from chap. 1) and so will the release time, Sundays at 20:30 EST (I think?). All that aside, I sure hope you'll enjoy this! It'll obviously be very different from the OG story, but I personally think that's a good thing. Cheerio!

Rimward Bound
Every citizen of the sky-cities of His Majesty's Star-Empire knows that a ship, both sky- and star-, is more then just a few bits of metal. It is the grand sum of it's hull and the crew that sail it. 'Hulls of battle-steel and men to match!' That's what the Navy's recruitment poster's claim at least. Every sailor knows that there is one more component that the city-bound folk ignore at their own peril: the soul of the ship. That it takes both man and hull to make a true ship, and that neither alone serve well or for long. In 8225 Lord Jeffrye Saltonstall the Fourth, Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps, demands semi-automated ships to 'reduce the loss of life among our brave crews', manages to convince the other politicians and bureaucrats to fund them, and gets the Office of Ship Construction to sign off on the ships as structurally sound. Dockyard workers shake their heads at the ships, muttering that they are cursed from birth, even as construction drags on. In 8230 the Explorer, first of her class, is launched. She sets out in 8233 to great fanfare on a trip expected to last six months. Neither she nor her twelve-person crew is ever heard from again. By 8235, the remaining seven Explorers are are commissioned. Lord Saltonstall managed to find crews for six of them but at the cost of mass resignations. The Night Horse, last of the Explorer class, sat in reserve as her sister-ships served well enough despite ill luck and misfortune. The Office of Ship Construction quietly issues notice that no more semi-automated ships are to be built and that all active Semi-automated ships are to be quietly retired and broken up for scrap over the next ten years. The Night Horse, sitting in reserve, is missed due to bureaucratic oversight. In 8250 Lord Ayland Wynstryngham the Eighth assumes the office of Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps. His first act is to issue notice that no ship is to be without crew nor sit in dock or reserve for longer then required for maintenance and upkeep. The Night Horse, all but forgotten, is quietly brought back into active service. Recruiting a crew for her proves another matter entirely. What poor or desperate fool would willingly sign on to crew, much less command, a cursed ship and spend months or years in deep space? Well, you would, of course. Where else is a kid from the gutters going to find that kind of freedom in the service of His Majesty? A [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] 2021. Warnings: Second person is used in this work. Semi-Polished draft: Posted chapters are subject to revision as needed as things progress. Mild Profanity on occasion.
