Frenzy P.O.V.
Anne and I are on our way home, I went out of the office than desi first, I know cathy will pick her up.
"Are you sure we will just eat at home?" anne asked me while waiting for the passenger jeep to go home to the condo.
"yes, I miss your dishes too eh" I said to her and put my arm around her arm.
"Do you want another dish that I will serve you frenzy?" she's whispering to me,
I looked at her and saw that she was smirking, a foolish smile was offered by anne's happy
face.
"your face!" I said and wiped my palm on anne's face.
"eyyy, what the.. i'm just joking, anne said laughing.
"You,.. You talk really nonsense.. Tss!" I just said shaking my head.
Good thing there was a passing multi-cab that looping in our condo, I call it and the two of us got on board.
"hmm.. frenzy!.. later.." anne whispered to me with a snout, fortunately anne and I were the only one riding in the multi-cab and the driver didn't hear us either because of the loud radio playing inside of the vehicle.
"anne ah, stop.. you're starting again!" I face to the woman that now making a cute face even though she is so cute in my eyes.
"Just a joke.. I just miss you" she told me.
"Even though we are together every day, I also miss you anne" I said softly. I looked into her eyes straight, I wanted to show to her that I was serious about what I said.
she just smiled at me with such sweetness and grabbed some money from her pocket to pay the driver.
"I'm going to cook ah" anne said after we entered the house, and planned to go straight to the kitchen, because she handed me her trolley bag with only her wet clothes and water toys.
"I think you should change your clothes" I said to her as I took her bag.
"later frenzy, so that after change, straight to bed" she said as she walked behind me towards the kitchen,
I walked to our room. we are the only two at home, desi sister jossie is still gone, desi and cathy is also not around yet, .. they are probably eating at a restaurant.
I immediately rejected them thinking of about cathy and desi, why do I have to think if they are eating at the restaurant?, I should not care about them right?
"I'll just cook sardines with pechay frenzy, we don't have any stock here in the refrigerator!" anne shouted at me.
"Anything anne, as long as you cook I'll eat that!" I also answered to her while opening the door of our room.
"i love you frenzy!" anne shouted at me.
"I love you too anne!" I said and I smiled to myself as I entered our room.
anne is not expressive of her feelings when we first met. even though she often visits me in my office before and after her swimming lesson, she still does not say what her real purpose is for me.
she really makes me happy when we are together. i even laughed at her corny jokes. actually I don't laugh at her joke but at the expression on her face. because her face is serious even though she is telling a joke. I don't know if she meant it but I really find it cute in her personality.
she even taught me how to swim. I also experienced her gentleness, and she's a little bit conservative. she doesn't want me to wear short shorts. she doesn't want me to wear a spaghetti strap shirt. but sometimes she really wears two pieces when she teaches swimming.
well, she has something to be proud of, if we only talk about the body, in her sporty nature, she will not lose the abs in her tummy that I want to touch when we are sleeping. and no matter how much she eats, she does not really gain weight.
as i reminisced, i can't help but smile.. for now, anne is one of the most important person in my life. and I'm sure I love her.... but suddenly cathy's face registered in my eyes, smiling at me. and seems to want to say something but I do not understand. I try to understand it but it becomes blurred in my sight.
"frenzy.... frenzy!" a voice called to me and I felt a slight shake of my body.
I fell asleep here in our room. and anne is in front of me now, waking me up.
"The food is cooked, let's go outside, I'm hungry" said anne with a smile.
I smiled at it and got up from lying down, anne came out first and I followed.
"wow! nice dinning set-up!" my eyes widened as I said.
"well, since we're still here, i made this.. tadddaaahhhh!" said anne and anne held out her two hands as if showing the look of the table.
The table is surrounded with a little candle, not too much but good enough to make the light around the table though there is actually a light opposite our table. It looks like we are in a fine dine-in restaurant but the different was our dish is stewed sardines with eggs and a few pechay..
This is where anne and I first agreed, one time she went to my boarding house and I had nothing to feed her because I couldn't go to the grocery at that time, I just cooked sardines with eggs, and it happened that it was also her favorite..
She's so simple and humble, she is not picky as long as she can carry things
"hey, you're stunned.. Didn't you like?. I'll just take it off?" anne asked me calmly..
"no no no,.." I quickly shook and I held her hand.
"actually i don't like it.... But i love it!" my smile to her.
I quickly en capped her face with my two hands and i put a gently kiss on her soft red lips.
"thank you for this quick romantic night with you my lovely swimmer"I whispered to her while staring straight to her eyes.
"hmmm.... Your most welcome... but later we will be loving loving.. my tummy is rumbling already, did you hear it?" anne said with a smile.
"hmp!. you are really a spoiler of the night!" I said angrily then slapped her on the shoulder.. but not that hard.
"ouch... frenzy! you hit me so many times already ah, you're already hurting me!" anne said while staring at me with frowned forehead.
"I'm sorry" I laughed saying in the tone of kathryn bernardo in the got to believe tv series.
"your corny" anne replied in the same tone.
We both laughed and the place surround our laughter. She really makes my heart feel happy and loved.
"Come on, let's eat!" anne told me and we sat at the table together.
I really enjoyed our dinner, I think I ate more, I sat on the sofa, while she was cleaning the dishes, I volunteered that I would just do it but anne insisted, she said she knew I was tired from work so she just took care of it.
"hello, the two are not here yet?" jossie opened the door immediately.
"they are not yet here jossie" I replied while watching tv.
"let's eat, I have some food here" jossie and I sat down at the dining table.
"we are done" said anne and she also finished washing our dishes and went to the sofa where I was sitting.
"hey, what anne, sit there oh, the other side is so spacious oh" I said to anne who was trying to squeeze herself into the sofa I was sitting on.
"eh I want to be next to you, is there a problem?" anne said softly.
"you, look, jossie is there oh, she might think something else to us!" I said while poking the ballpen I was holding on her side.
"aww," anne said with a smile but she was still smiling.
"what are you doing?" anne asked me.
"itenerary for our upcoming getaway for your birthday" I said to the smiling woman who did not know my plans for her birthday.
I looked at Anne's face peeking at the paper I was holding, and I glanced at her red lips, oh if Jossie was not here I might have grabbed this woman with a kiss.
we also sat for a long time and anne was talking about her upcoming birthday when desi and cathy arrived.
"Oh, you took so late?" desi's sister jossie opened the door for cathy and desi as soon as they open our main door.
"traffic jammed" desi said and went straight to the living room and sat on the sofa.
I did not look at the two, I just continued writing and periodically watching tv.
Even though I don't look at them, I can see in my peripheral view cathy's approach when desi invite her to sat on the other sofa.
I don't know to myself but I was suddenly nervous, I immediately wrote anything, actually I do not know what I am writing because of my nervousness, I just hope anne does not notice me.
Anne greeted cathy and cathy did the same to anne. I looked at cathy for a moment. I can't greet her because of desi, and she might be think something else, so i decided to just focus on the television and watched.
Jossie approached us and remind the four of us to go to bed early and said goodbye, she went to her bed first.
"so cathy, what's your plan now that you are here in the Philippines?" anne suddenly asked cathy.
I was surprised by anne's question, I don't know but I feel ashamed that she asked that so I try to stop anne for asking cathy.
"hey, isn't it rude to ask that? I said softly to anne.
"what? .. I'm just asking?" anne said calmly while holding it around my waist so I was shocked while sitting down.
I don't know why but I suddenly turned to cathy but I immediately took it back and poked anne a little.
"tsk... I told you don't touch me there eh!" my rebuke to anne.
"sorry!" holding back a laugh said anne and she raised her hand in the air, signaling that she would stop.
since I saw cathy in front of the elevator the other day when I kissed anne, I was shy to be sweet with anne every time cathy was in front of us, I don't know.. but I feel like I hurt her that way.
but in another part of my brain, I want cathy to see that I am happy with what I am now, I want her to see that I'm better now without her, but why is that, why does something seem to stop me from doing that?.
anne and cathy talked, i was just listening, i don't want to be part of their conversation. anne even asked me why I didn't tell her about cathy's whereabouts.
"It doesn't matter anymore" I said and I just continued writing.
I also don't want to tell anne about cathy's whole personality, she's not part of my life now and whatever she used to be.. she is the one who is in charge of sharing it with other people.
"what is that?" desi suddenly asked me.
"Anne and I have an itinerary next week because we will go to bintan Indonesia to celebrate her birthday" was my happy answer.
"Oh yes, that's I remember, very timing that cathy will move here, we can all celebrate your birthday anne!" was also excited desi said that and she even got up from lying on cathy's lap, and sat down properly,.
"Let's plan now for next week!" desi said to to both of us.
I looked at cathy for a moment, why is my gaze fixed on this woman. i begun to annoy at myself.
I immediately looked away from cathy and talked to anne.
"hmm... would you like to have a celebration here?" my gentle question to anne.
and anne did not refuse desi's proposal, we just talked for a while about what to do for next week's celebration.
If i'm the one they'll ask, I don't want a party at home but since desi insisted, it's up to her anyway.
We stayed in the living area for a while, and when I think all the plans for next week have settled, I invited anne to go to our room, it was already late at night and we still have work the next day.
we said goodbye to desi and cathy, I tried not to look at cathy. Anne and I walked away from the two of them.
but I don't know why there seems to be some force that motivated me to look back at the desi and cathy place where they are still sitting, but I think that decision was wrong because I heard what cathy said to desi.
"iloveyoutoo!" cathy said to desi.
as soon as cathy said that I immediately removed my gaze from them and quickly entered the room. I feel like I can't breathe. chasing my breath sitting on the side of the bed.
"something wrong frenzy?" anne asked worriedly and it sat in front of me.
"nothing, I feel like I'm suddenly tired" I reasoned.
"you want some water ?, I'll get you one from the kitchen" said anne.
"no need.." I sadi to anne as i grab her both arm.. and put it on my shoulder.
"hmm.. I feel like I want to take a shower" I teased anne as she wrapped her arm around my shoulder and neck.
she kissed me on my neck and it produces a goose bump all over my body.
"Yes, you smell stingy frenzy!" anne said laughing as her gentle kiss continued to touch my neck.
"ah, I'm so stingy that is why your kiss is non-stop huh?" I said to her as I push her away from me.
"eh you smells like a stingy baby eh,.. hahaha" anne laughed.
"hmp!, I don't know about you, I'm already taking a bath" I said to her and I smirked at her.
"Let's take a bath!" anne said once dragging me and we went out of the room straight to the opposite toilet and we both entered... :)
