Penelope's POV
"Why are you calling me?" Inis na sagot ko kay Serene. It's so early in the morning and she keeps buzzing my phone.
"Where's Cairo?"
Napairap naman ako sa tanong nya.
"Why are you calling me idiot. Call your fiance!" Akmang papatayin ko na sana yung call pero sumagot pa sya.
"I wouldn't waste my time calling you over and over again if he's picking up his phone".
Gosh!
"Let him rest, he's sick!" At pinatay ko na yung tawag nya.
Agad naman na akong naghilamos para puntahan sya sa kwarto nya. I slowly opened it pero wala akong Cairo na nakita.
Where the hell is Cairo?!
Pumunta ako sa banyo pero wala rin sya doon. I tried to call him and great I don't have his phone number and worst I saw his phone beside his bed.
"Where the hell is he?"
Lalabas na sana ako nang condo nang makita ko si Cairo na nasa veranda ng condo habang nagkakape at nagyoyosi.
"Hey! Can you please charge your phone, your fiance keep pestering me".
Lumingon lang sya sa akin at humigop nang kape nya, completely ignorning me.
"Didn't you hear what I sa---
"Come here" Marahan nya akong hinila paupo sa upuan at naupo naman ako.
"You'll gonna love when the sun rises".
Napairap naman ako sa kanya.
"Here's your coffee" kinuha ko naman iyon. I am not a morning person.
"Sinadya kong patayin yung phone ko para tawagan ka ni Sere. Ayoko kasing gisingin ka sleepy head, baka ako mapagbuntungan mo ng init ng ulo mo". Bahagya naman syang natawa. Anong nakakatawa doon? Nasira na nga yung tulog ko dahil argh!
"Gustong-gusto mo talaga akong iniinis".
Natawa lang sya sa sinabi ko.
"And please call your goddamn fiance, she's more annoying than you". Pakiusap ko sa kanya.
Pumasok naman sya sa loob at siguro tinawagan si Serene.
Tumayo ako para sana tawagin sya dahil malapit nang magsunrise.
"Hey--
"Miss me?" Inirapan ko lang naman sya.
"Do you like sunrise that much na kailangan mo pang gumawa ng way para istorbohin yung tulog ko para may kasama kang panoorin 'to?" I looked in the sky and I was mesmerized by the beauty of it.
"Nope, I just want to be with you". I looked at him while he's looking in the sky, smiling.
He turned his gaze on me and I immediately looked away from him.
Ilang minuto ring kaming nag-antay ng sunrise and then after that we headed back inside.
He's cooking for me, again.
"Pen, what do you want for breakfast?"
The audacity of him calling me over and over again by how Cielo's calling me is pissing me off. But I just need more time para maconfirm kong sya nga si Cielo.
"Can you please---
"Oh yeah, we don't do breakfast nga pala. How about let's walk outside?"
"No!"
