The Bautista clan 7: Athena Marie

Nineteen

Nineteen

Athena is grinning as she is reading something on her phone and Pierre is somewhat having a wrinkled face as he is watching his wife.

Shit. Yeah. That's what he is feeling right now. The jealousy, the possession and everything is now striking but since he loves his wife so much, Pierre deleted all of that at naiiling na lang na nagpatuloy sa paglalakad at dinala ang kape ng asawa sa kinauupuan nito.

"Hey babe, what are you grinning all about?" aniya.

Athena as still grinning didn't even look at Pierre "Mama sent me pictures of yours honey" bale walang sabi nito.

What? Naka kunot noong sambit ng lalaki, he even tilted his head on his wife’s side saka nagmistulang giraffe sa haba ng leeg nito para mkita ang picture na sinasabi nito.

Napamulagat siya habang si Athena naman ay tawa ng tawa sa harap ng cellphone nito.

Why not, it was a picture of Pierre when he was young and he doesn't have any clothes!

While Pierre is snorting, Athena is having a 'bad' thoughts, asking her self why the heck her husband’s sword is big and fat now while it was so thin and small when he was young?

It's weird.. She even sighed on her thoughts.

"What?" nakakunot noong tanong bi Pierre sa asawa pero ang mga mata nito ay nasa dibdib ng babae dahil gaya ng dati, wala na naman itong suot na bra at bakat na bakat ang mga malulusog na dibdib nito.

It was hard, and now— as usual — he is having a hard time asking his length to behave! f**k!

"Nothing" Athena tilted her head to look at Pierre pero napakunot noo lang siya ng makitang madilim ang mukha nito na halatang may pinipigil dahil nahalata niyang parang napapa lunok ito ng madalas.

She raised her left brows "Anything wrong honey? Aniya.

Pierre sulking in, watching a hard n*****s in front of his face is something but his wife’s 'honey' is another thing! Damn it!

It's like he is having a double kill. One bullet, two hard shot!

" Babe, are you aware that you're having a hard.. Ahmmm" he cleared his throat, kahit pa asawa na niya ang matagal na niyang minamahal, hindi pa din naman siya makapag salita ng mga bagay bagay na hindi niya alam kung magugustuhan ng babae o hinde.

He wanted to talk dirty to his wife, he wanted to flirt all the time, sana pero he wasn't sure if Athena can take it or not.

"Hardened n****e you mean?" natatawang sambit ni Athena. Pierre looked away, having his face red as Athena burst out on laughter.

Athena tsk "It's okay, you can talk flirty to me honey.. I'm on it" anito saka tumayo at umupo sa kandungan ng lalaki.

Pierre automatically wrapped his hands on Athena's waist and smiled "Really? Oh babe! Are you sure it's okay?"

Athena laughed even more then she smiled sweetly, caressed her husband’s chin when she saw him blushing again, not because kinikilig ito pero dahil alam niyang he felt embarrassed.

Yeah, Athena is now very sure about Pierre's feelings.

" It's fine honey.. I'm your wife, you can flirt, anytime.. Don't mind me if I'm having a sulking face, it's not because of you, it's because of me having such issues on my mind. But for now, I'm so sorry if I can't tell you yet, pero darating ang araw na masasabi ko din iyon sa'yo, and I'm praying that if that time will come, you will not deny me—"

" —You're aware how much I love you, aren't you babe? " Pierre cut her off

Athena smiled and buried her face on Pierre's neck" I am.. I really am.. And I love you too honey " anas niya saka hinalikan ang leeg ng lalaki.

Athena woke up, at napamulagat siya ng nasa kama na siya, s**t. Nakatulog na naman ba ako?

And when she get up, napailing siya ng makitang nagkalat ang mag damit niya sa kama at may bago na siyang suot sa katawan.

She’s grinning while shooking her head, why. Because this morning was great as she 'raped' her husband again.

Ang landi ko na talaga.. Naiiling na sambit niya. She was craving for Pierre everytime this past days.

His touch, his kisses, his... Everything about him. Pero hindi gaya ng dati, masaya siya dahil sa nasasabi na niya ngayon ang gusto niya, hindi gaya ng dati na natatakot siya sa tuwing napapa dikit ang damdamin niya sa asawa.

She’s in love, and so Pierre. So, for her, there's nothing to worry about anymore.

Pierre is driving from a hectic schedule from his company nang tumawag si Geoffrey. "What?" aniya.

"Hey buddy, I'm here" it eas López.

Naiiling na lumiko siya sa kalye patungong bahay ni Geoffrey dahil alam naman niya na hindi siya makaka wala sa mga ito.

After he Parked his car, he sent a message to his wife saying that he's here in her cousin's place.

When Athena said 'okay' he went out from his car and went inside the house.

Adrian is sulking, López is grinning while eating stick-o, Geoffrey is looking at López flatly while the others are having their own life in front of their cellphones.

Nice.. Naiiling na sambit ni Pierre sa sarili. Mga lasing na pala ang mga gago, tssk, ako na naman ang taga salo nito!

"Bud, am I a bad person?" naiinis na sambit ni Kurt.

"Yeah!" sigaw ni Goldwyn.

"Don't know, why?" Pierre said and sat down on the floor. Mas komportable kasi siya doon, like López, he was sitting peacefully on the floor while leaning his back on the vacant sofa, weirdest person he knew all his life.

"s**t man, I was dumped!" gigil na sambit ni Kurt.

Pierre just acted normally while he heard some snorts and sigh from the group.

"Why?" Pierre asked, but not so genuinely. Because he knew, the woman is just like his wife.

Mahirap spellingin, so hard to tamed.

Pierre sighed.

“I may not be the man I should be, but thank God I’m not the man I used to be, and that's because of my wife. She's my everything bud, so I chose to be the 'right man' for her, not for my sake but for her" aniya.

Geoffrey tssk. "Wife huh?" anito.

Pierre swallowed his own saliva, cleared his throat and nodded "Y-yeah?" aniya.

Samuel tapped his shoulder "No need to hide, we all knew" anito.

Nakahinga naman ng maluwag si Pierre saka bumaling kay Kurt ng magsalita ito.

He isn't talking much about his feelings, so Pierre took it seriously this time. "I’m not where I want to be...but I’m not where I used to be.. I wanted a life full of happiness, but now, I'm having a torture! f**k, did you hear me?! Bud, I'm f****d!" inis na sambit nito. "Why she doesn't trust me? I did all I know I can do bud! But why she couldn't believe the hell out of me?! Why the f**k?! "

She do.. But you aren't to yourself buddy.. He wanted to tell him those words, but not now. He will, definitely he will, but for now, he needs to play safe.

Life is the most difficult exam. Many people fail because they try to copy others. Not realizing that everyone has a different question on their paper. Kurt is the living proof, he is trying to copy his father, that's why he couldn't show his true identity.

He wanted to please his woman all the time, because he is afraid that his father couldn't agree his way of handling his life.

His father is a legend, and he is so afraid of having flaws. Not like his sister —the wife of Thadeius, who is just smirking on the side— na kaya nitong gawin ang gusto nitong gawin, not thinking about others thought.

"It's okay not to be okay bud. Okay lang magkamali, doon tayo natututo e" Adrian said.

"At nagsalita ang matino at may alam sa pagmamahal— Jake made a 'puff' sound —" Paranng hindi ka nagtatago a? " anito na nakatingin ng nakataas kilay kay Adrian.

" Kala mo lang 'yun" Adrian said saka nito inubos ang laman ng bote ng beer.

Naiiling na lumingon si Pierre sa tahimik lang na si López.

"Don't look at me, my wife is very naive and sweet" anito, Pierre can see proud from his friend's face.

"Yeah yeah, and the cats can bark. Sorry bud, but your wife is scary as hell!" Goldwyn said.

"Nah. She's sweet" López said.

Pierre knew, López wife is different.

"I second the motion!" Thadeius said. "To Goldwyn" anitong naka ngisi and Mathew just gave Thadeius a middle finger on the air.

López just shrugged his shoulder. Pierre just nodded because they all know, kakaiba naman talaga ang asawa ng gagong si Mathew, she's sweet, but when she smiles, she's something.

When Pierre got home, he smelled something from their kitchen kaya naman doon siya tumuloy, he saw his wife busy cooking.

This is life.. He even sniffed the air.

He felt fresh after a 'not-so-tiring- day' from his bundle of lunatics friends.

"Hey honey" sabi nito kahit pa hindi naman ito nakatingin o lumingon man lang sa kanya.

"Hi babe. Busy tayo a.. Hmm ang bango naman niyan" aniya habang naglalakad palapit sa asawa.

Nang makalapit, hinalikan nito ang leeg ng asawa saka yumakap mula sa likuran nito.

Athena tilted her head and faced her husband saka ngumuso, Pierre planted a wet deep kiss on her lips.

"Nag crave kasi ako ng fish hon, kaya naman nanood ako kung paano magluto. So, here I am, cooking for our dinner — she turned off the stove and turned her body to Pierre saka ikinawit nito ang dalawang kamay sa leeg ng asawa kahit pa sa sobrnag tangkad nito ay medyo hirap siyang pagsalikupin ang kamay sa likod nito—"How's everybody there?" aniya.

Pierre snorted "Nagmistula akong pastor" anito na tila nagsusumbong.

Athena giggled "Mga lasing na naman?" aniya.

"Yeph. I was a great listener too babe"

Natatawang naglambitin si Athena sa asawa. Pierre carried his wife to tge Island counter saka siya umupo sa mataas na stool doon habang kandong ang asawa.

Napakunot noo siya ng mapagtantong may nagbago sa babae " bumibigat ka yata baby?" aniya.

Athena pouted "Food is life"

As simple as that, just like she answered his questions with that simple fact.

"Mahal mo pa din naman ako kahit mabigat na ako diba?" Athena said while having a puppy eyes.

Pierre laughed and kissed his adorable wife "Siyempre naman babe. It's not about yout body, it's you.." anito.

Athena doesn't know but she shed a tear, and Pierre beibg unaware why hus wife is crying freak out "Babe? Why? May nasabi ba akong 'dimo nagustuhan?" nag aalalang sabi nito habang pinupunasan ang mukha ng asawa.

Athena is asking her self too, she wasn't like this before. But now, para siyang naging sobrang sensitive. It's like she became emotional all of a sudden.

Athena dried her tears " I'm just happy honey. Thank you dahil nandito ka sa tabi ko ngayon"

"Akala ko naman kung may nasabi na naman ako" Pierre said while smiling.

Tila naman nakonsensya si Athena, she can feel paranoia from Pierre. And she was the one who can be blamed with this, sa trato ba naman niya sa lalaki noon e, sino ang hindi mapaparanoid?

But for now, she is more than willing to change her attitude towards her husband. Pero 'yung pagka maldita niya minsan— yeph, minsanan lang naman — e hindi niya yata kayang pakawalan.

After they eat their dinner, Pierre fixed the kitchen dahil nauna na sa kwarto ang asawa nito.

She said, she's sleepy and tired kahit pa ito na mismo ang nagsabi na nagluto lang naman ang ginawa nito, but for him, she can have all the day and time to rest, ayaw din naman niyang napapagod ang asawa niya.

After he finished the kitchen, umakyat na siya sa kwarto nila, dala ang proposed designs from Joshua, napag usapan na kasi nilang mag asawa na gawin nang iisa ang mga bahay nila.

Total naman ay magkalapit lang, so he asked Joshua's help. But of course, ang kay Athena na design pa din ang masusunod.

She’s the queen of his life, so, she will be the 'brain' in everything.

She’s the queen, no questions about that..
