I'm Yours

A\N: This is my very first story-post with some lines written in Filipino. I'm a proud Filipino, what can I say? :) Btw, this post was inspired by Secretly Married, a story written by Glimmer if I'm not mistaken. :)

"AGGGGHHHHH! KRISTINAAAAAAAAAA!"

"NAMAAAAAN O! Ano bang problema mo?!" I, of course was appalled. Lagi na lang sumisigaw tong asawa kong to. I've been giving him the cold shoulder since dumating siya ng bahay kagabi. Paano ba naman? Nakita ko yung bagong endorsement niya. Bwiset. Panira ng araw o. Pasalamat siya't mahal ko sya. If not... God I don't know!

I'll let you in a little secret.

Joshua and I have been married for four years. I guess. It was arranged by our moms who died a few years back. And just like all arranged marriages, it didn't quite work out. It still doesn't quite work out. A little.

But it's been better now. I mean, I know I love him and I know he loves me. It's just that there are times when we fight and scream at each other like hell. Probably brought about by our youth. For Pete's sake, we're both just eighteen! Wala pang masyadong alam sa buhay.

The thing is, we can't really tell everyone we're married. Just a few people we can really trust. Pag nalaman to ng press lagot na. And why lagot na? Because my husband is a freaking teen endorser.

Yes, endorser asawa ko. Yung tipong pagnakita siya sa mall, pagkakaguluhan agad. Mukhang daig pa nga nya endorsements ni Ed Westwick o Justin Bieber e. ^__________^

He's that famous.

And that's why we just can't drop the bomb that we're married. Mahirap na. Sabi pa niya, it's for my own good. My own good niyang mukha niya.

Sa school nga e, he treats me like a fangirl of his. Parang di kami magkakilala. Pero pagdating sa bahay (Yes. We live under one roof. Hello, asawa ko na yun e. Mamatay ka sa inggit.), he's the sweetest thing around. Daig pa si Kimpoy Feliciano sa kacornihan ng banat! Pwera na lang kung nag-aaway kami. Like now.

"ANG SELOSA MO E! It was just one kiss needed for the endorsement. Nothing more!" He defended himself.

"JUST A KISS?! Hoy, Joshua Mikael Santos! Di ako bulag. Halata namang gustong gusto yun nung babae no! Hmp!"

"It was her. Not me! I swear. I would never do anything na magcacause pa ng away between us. Tapos na ako sa mga ganun. Ayokong lagi tayong nag-aaway. Bati na tayo, please?" He was pleading. He so rarely does that. Why do so now?

"Josh!" i threw my hands up in exasperation. "Nagustuhan nga nung babaeng yun nung hinalikan mo siya e! SIGURADO KA BANG HINDI KA DIN GINANAHAN?!" I was raising my voice na. And so was he.

"HINDI NGA E! Sinabi ko nang hindi diba?! God, Kristine! You're so narrowminded! You know that it's part of what I do! Intindihin mo na lang sana!" Nakakainis tong mokong na to. Kala mo kung sino makadepensa sa sarili!

Di lang ako kumibo. Cause I know if I open my mouth and say more, may masasabi pa akong di maganda.

Di naman ako nagagalit dahil dinepensahan pa niya yung sarili niya. I also understand that he had to do what he did. He had to kiss that girl and make it realistic. And I guess the main reason why I am like this is because I am jealous.

Oo. Nagseselos ako. Naiintindihan ko namang trabaho lang yun at sadyang professional talaga si Joshua. Pero akin siya e. Mine. Asawa ko siya. Diba ako lang dapat hinahalikan niya ng ganun? :|

We were both silent for a few minutes. I was facing the window with my arms across my chest. He was behind me. Nakatingin lang siya sa akin. Di ko na napigilan, silent sobs escaped from within me. Tuloy tuloy na yung pagpatak ng mga luha ko.

After a while, he decided to break the silence.

"Tina?"

Di ako sumagot. I just held my position.

"Tina naman please. Talk to me. Di ko kaya tong ganito. Sige na naman o. Please?"

Di pa rin ako sumagot. Nakakapagod na e. Baka mauwi pa to sa second round ng sigawan.

Nagulat na lang ako when he hugged me from behind. I tried to escape from his grasp but he just held me tighter. And closer.

"Tins. Sorry na. Mas mahalaga ka sa pride ko. Believe me when I say na yung kiss na yun, it was purely for the endorsement. Kung siya ginanahan, ako wala lang yun sa akin. Walang feelings yung pagkiss ko sa kanya. Walang wala. I'm yours right? I. Am. Yours. Iyong iyo lang ako Tins."

Walangya. Kinilig naman ako. :"""""""""""""> Mokong na to. :3 Galit ako diba? Bakit bigla naman akong kinilig? Ehhhhhh.

"Talaga?" I questioned him. Alam ko namang totoo yung sinasabi niya. I felt the sincerity in his voice. Pero mabuti na yung sigurado :D

He spun me around to face him. Still in his arms, he wiped my tears with his gentle fingers. He leaned towards me and touched his forehead to mine sabay sabi, "Paulit-ulit? Ganon?" Sabay tawa.

BWISET! Feel na feel ko na yung moment e! Sirain ba naman?! JOSHUA MIKAEL NAMAN O! :( Some things really don't change.

I pushed him away from me and started to walk to the door.

"Uy, uy. Tina naman. Nagbibiro lang yung tao e." He pulled me back towards him and made me face him again.

He held my face in his hands and said, "Kristina Isabelle Dela Cruz- Santos,"

"O, ano na namang ba-" He cut me off with a kiss. E lalaban pa ba ako? Edi hinalikan ko na lang din :D :"""""""""""">

He pulled away and gave me a little smile.

"Patapusin mo nga muna ako e," He smiled again. "Iyong iyo lang ako, okay? Nobody can and will ever take me away from you. Sorry kung kailangan kong magpanggap na di kita kilala sa school. Sorry sa mga nagawa kong mali sayo. And I'm sorry kasi I am not always there when you need me. But trust me when I say that I love you. I am yours, don't ever doubt that. Kaya bati na tayo, Kristina Isabelle Dela Cruz-Santos, okay?"

I looked up into his eyes and gave in. Kinilig na naman ako. Ano ba to. :')

"Eeeeeeh. Ikaw kasi e!" Sabi ko sa kanya.

"Ako na naman, babe? Ano na naman ba ginawa ko? I mean, I just confessed my innermost feelings and yet you still blame me?" He asked me.

"Ehhh. JOSHUA MIKAEL NAMAN E, wag ka nga masyadong pacute! Alam mo namang wala akong laban dyan!" He smirked. Tse. Dapat di na ako papadala dyan e! And, I'm sorry for acting the way I did," He raised an eyebrow at me. "I know I was wrong and I understand that you did it because of the endorsement. Pero sana, you would understand me din if I say na ganun yung asta ko dahil nagseselos ako. I'm sorry."

He just smiled at me and pinched my nose. :3

"You know you're cute when you're jealous," CUTE? E HALOS MAMATAY NA NGA AKO SA SELOS E. CUTE PA RIN? Naman Josh. Sira na ata talaga yangg tuktok mo. Haaay.

"Basta baby, wag ka nang magseselos, okay? Alam mo namang ikaw lang may-ari nito diba?" sabi niya habang kinuha yung kamay ko at ipinatong sa puso niya.

I'm at loss for words. Sa tagal tagal naming magkasama ni Joshua, he's never been like this. He's never been so senti. May nalalaman pa syang papatong-patong sa puso. :')

"Yezzir. Di na po magseselos basta't di ako bibigyan ng dahilan para magselos," I poked his nose with my finger and smiled.

"Bitaw na. Nakakarami ka na ata. Bitawan mo na ako, Josh."

"Asawa kaya kita."

"Ehhbasta! Bitawan mo na ako, please?"

"Baka mangaliwa ka a! Baka you'll have your revenge dahil nagselos ka dun sa kiss."

"Do you trust me?"

"Yes. Syempre naman."

"Then you don't have to worry about me being with another man. You know I can't do that, right? I love you that much."

"Ge nga. Prove it."

Prove it? What on earth does he mean?

He probably noticed my puzzled look kaya he laughed and said, "Kiss mo nga ako." Sabay tawa.

Hay nako. Mokong talaga. Forever.

"Sineswerte ka na ata, Santos a. Let me down na please?" I pleaded.

"Kiss mo muna ako," tumatawa na naman. Mokoooooooooooooong. Kung hindi lang kita mahal, di talaga kita pagbibigyan!

Kaya yun. I kissed him. Wala din naman itong malisya diba? He's my husband. I'm his wife. :]

"Okay! Let go na, let go na please?" :3

"I will never let you go," He looked in my eyes with such intensity and sincerity that made me immobile when he kissed me again.

Hay nako. Sana ganito na lang lagi. Yung di kami nag-aaway? :) Masaya yun.

I stepped away from his arms baka san pa to mapunta, lagot na.

"Where are you going?"

"Down, halika samahan mo ako. Ginutom mo ako, Mokong ka!" I grabbed his hand and proceeded to the door when he suddenly spun me around.

"Last na?" sabay turo sa lips niya.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEHH. -___________-"

Di ata ako papakainin nitong mokong na to e.

Pero kahit mokong yun, love ko yun :)

Eeeeeeeeh. Cheesy naman. Yucks XD
