"S-sorry." Yun na lang ang nasabi ko, this was so embarrassing! Tapos ganito pa yung position namin! Ako na ang humiwalay sa kaniya para naman nawala ang kahihiyan ko.

He cleared is throat. "May kinuha lang ako sa kotse." He looked at me. "You? What did you do?"

My heart starts to beat fast again, yung tingin niya sa akin and my feelings... For him. "Baka matunaw ako." I don't know why I said that, natawa naman siya kahit hindi naman 'yon joke.

"Sorry, let's go?" He asked then I nodded saka kami pumasok sa convenience store na kakainan namin.

We saw Ayah and Charity on their phones, maybe they're playing because their phone are in landscape. Pumunta kami sa table nila at nakiupo.

"Drone mo Cha."

Oh, they're playing Cod. "Don't madali! I can't get kills duh?" Sumilip ako sa phone nila and they're playing Battle Royale.

"Asan ka ba?" Ayah asked na parang galit.

"In the car." Charity answered.

Nanlaki yung mata ni Ayah, parang hindi niya inexpect yung ginawa ni Charity. "Hala ka boang! SASAKYAN YAN NG KALABAN!" Napasigaw si Ayah thats why napatingin yung mga tao na nakapaligid sa amin.

Tinapik ko naman yung kamay niya and I know naramdaman niya 'yon pero parang hindi pa siya nahiya.

"Huh? What!" Sigaw din ni Charity, sinuway tuloy sila ng workers doon. "I died." Charity said letting out a deep breath.

"Ano ba 'yan. Kaya ko ba 'yan dalawa?"

"You can do it." Charity cheered her.

"Pag eto na clutch ko." I watched Ayah's screen, nagtago siya sa likod ng bato habang nag e-emote yung kalaban sa loot ni Charity. She was about to rush but someone killed her behind her back.

Natawa tuloy ako nang makita siyang inis na inis, napasigaw siya while her mouth is closed. It's kinda weird how did she do that? "Ayoko na! Multiplayer na lang." She pouted then Charity said okay.

Dumating si Chase sa table namin with a tray, medyo matagal siya kasi andaming tao na naka pila. "Grabe sigaw niyo." He chuckled then sat to my left side.

"Pasensya na kuya, eto kasi." Turo ni Ayah kay Charity, so kuya pala tawag niya kay Chase? Bakit? Nagmamadali ba siyang maging brother in law niya si Chase eher enebe.

"So it's my fault?" Charity held her chest dramatically.

"Ssh, start na."

Me and Chase is starting to eat, I told Ayah and Charity to eat after the game. "Do yoh want drinks?" He asked me.

"No, just water." I smiled ate a spoonful of rice with an egg, I'm on a diet but its cheat day.

"Capture mo B Cha, Capture ko C." Ayah command her, she nodded.

"They said to capture B and C." Chase said and looked at me. "But why did I capture you?"

"Aw shiii." Ayah laughed.

"Bawian mo ate." Charity cheered for me, hindi ako papatalo.

"Ano ka tripmine?" I said while raising my eyebrows that made him confused. "Without the trip."

"Ooohh ano ano." Pang-aasar ni Ayah. "Tapos na din!

Kumain na kami malapit nang maubos yung kinakain ko I drink some water kasi medyo nanunuyo yung lalamunan ko I don't know why.

I noticed someone that caught my attention, the table in my right side. There are three girls and they're looking at me, I guess no. They're looking at Chase, may binubulong bulong pa.

Nagulat ako nang mag labas sila ng cellphone. The girl put her seat kung saan makikita kami ng camera, I guess they're taking pictures of Chase.

So I took my cellphone out and then also takes some pictures. "Can you hold this?" I asked Chase, para hindi makita yung mukha niya sa picture ng mga babae doon since nasa left side ko siya.

"Picturan ko kayo ate." Nagulat ako nang sabihin 'yon ni Ayah, tumitingin din siya sa mga babae I guess she also noticed it. "Akbayan mo kuya." Pinandilatan ko siya ng mata at pinandilatan niya din ako pabalik. I put liptint on my lips, baka mag mukha akong maputla doon sa picture.

Para kaming nag-uusap using our eyes then we can understand each other. I went closer to him, I guess he found the hint para akbayan niya ako.

"Ang cute niyo!" Ayah showed the pic to us. And she's right, we look cute together.

She gave me back my phone and ate the last spoonful of rice, sinulyapan ko yung mga babae but they're still taking pictures of him.

Gusto ko silang kausapin pero I don't know how. But an idea came to my head, should I distract him looking at me para matakpan ko mukha niya? Or pagsasabihan ko na lang sila?

"Chase." Nagulat ako nang bigla kong banggitin yung pangalan niya then he looked at me. Gagawin ko ba talaga 'to?

"Bibili lang kami drinks kuya." Ayah said sinama niya si Ayah sa kaniya. I glanced at the girls who's still taking pics, nakita nila ako na nakatingin sa kanila at nginitian ko na lang. Then I rolled my eyes at them nung hindi na ako nakatingin sa kanila.

I drank my glass of water and stood up and looked at the girls that are watching me. "I'll just use the restroom." I said to Chase then I kissed his cheek, I know he was startled na ginawa ko 'yon. Gusto ko lang naman makita yung mga reaction nung mga babae and gulat na gulat sila sa ginawa ko.

I was holding my lips the whole time papuntang restroom, hindi ako makapaniwal na nagawa ko 'yon. Sana naman patawarin niya ko kung ayaw niya ng mga ganon huhu.

I washed my face and retouched my face a bit kasi ang oily pala ng mukha ko. "I' sorry Chase." I sighed. Bigla ko naalala yung first kiss namin sa Korea, but it's an accident though. I was just about to open the door but someone opened it first. My face heated when I saw him, "C-chase." I said stuttering.

He's looking at me coldly while his jaw are moving, he held my hand and drag me out of the convinience store hanggang sa makarating kami sa parking lot. Isinandal niya ako sa kotse niya while looking at me. I can't belive what's happening, what did I just do?

"Why did you do that." He said in a deep voice while looking at me, sinubukan kong umiwas nang tingin pero hinaharap niya yung mukha ko sa kaniya.

"S-sorry kung--"

"No need to apologize, I just wanted to know why'd you do that?"

I cleared my throat. "B-because those girls beside our table, t-taking pictures of you w-whithout your c-consent."

"I like it."

My eyes widened and I pushed him. "Mworago? Micheosseo?" What? are you crazy? "You wanted that someone taking pictures of you without your consent."

"Yeah." He smirked, "Para lagi mong gawin sa akin 'yon."

"H-huh? Alin?" I asked out of nowhere.

"This." He went in front of me and kissed my forehead.
