I am already up and it is only 4:30 AM. According to Titus he'll pick me up at 5:30 AM so we will be flying around 6:30 AM. Working as his secretary for a short period of time I know that he is very precise with his time.

Of course, I don't want to be the one who is late. I still have 1 hour but I am already ready. I don't have enough sleep because it is now sudden. I thought we will be flying on Friday, kaya wala pa akong naaayos sa mga gamit ko. Kagabi lang ako nagpack ng lahat ng damit ko.

Thankfully natapos naman ako. I brought 2 weeks supply of my things. I may just have to do laundry if tatagal nga kami ng 1 month sa Palawan.


I am bit excited. This is my first out of town, and Palawan pa and I am staying in a hotel. Kung magtravel man siguro ako ay hindi ako makakapunta ng Palawan.

At exactly 5:30 AM, Titus texted me that he is waiting outside. Nanay is already awake waiting with me.

"Nay, aalis na po ako. Magvivideocall tayo pagdating ko doon." Sabi ko kay Nanay at hinalikan siya sa noo. She smiled. I'm gonna miss my mom.

"Ingat kayo doon, Anak. Palawan iyon, mag-enjoy ka din ha? Huwag puro trabaho." Ani Nanay, umiling nalang ako at ngumiti.

She helped my with my bags to the door and she waited for me to get close to the car.

While in the car, there's huge man in his phone maybe texting someone? Who knows? All I care about is how good he looks with his hair undone. He usually has his hair comb properly. Now it is down like he just let it dry after shower.

He looks vulnerable right now. I want to soak it in. He never looked like that. He is always intimidating and superior. Now he looks like a teenage boy. Parang ibang lalake ang kaharap ko ngayon. Hindi ko namalayan na nakatitig lang ako sa kanya for good 2 minutes.

Which also he's doing, he just stares at me but not in an amused way. He seems confused, maybe confused why am I staring at him. I am now red as a tomato. He picked up my bag and put it at the back seat. I tried to see if my Mom is still there and she is. I waved and she smiled and go back inside and will probably cook breakfast.

"Have you already eaten?" He asked once we were both inside the car.

"Nagkape po ako." I said. I looked at him and he is also looking at me. He seems tired, he is wearing a white button-down white long sleeve, first button is undone and he partnered it with a black slacks.

He is very handsome. I really want to admit this a very long time ago. Ngayon lang ako naglakas ng loob na aminin yon sa sarili ko and I don't know why.

He nodded and he went on his phone before driving. Since it is early, there's no traffic. We got to the airport earlier than 6:30 AM. When the car stopped, I immediately reach for my bags in the back just to make sure everything is there. Before I was able to open the car door, Titus already opened it for me.

I smiled and say my thank you. He smiled too. I think this is the first time I saw him smile. He is always serious. Though he is so cute while smiling, I find him more attractive when he is serious.

The plane is huge for two people and it is very cozy too. There's two large couches facing each other, 3 reclining chairs and a very large isle. We decided to sit in the couches, it just took 5 minutes and we already took off.

Suddenly, someone shows up, which I think is the flight attendant.

"Good morning, Mr. Apollo and Ms. Alvarez, I am Jackson, I will be your flight attendant today." He said smiling to both of us.

"I have prepared a breakfast." He said and Pull something behind him, which is a small coffee table which has at least 4 type of sandwich and coffee and juice.

"Thank you, Jackson." I said while smiling and smiles in return.

May kaliitan ang coffee table if I move it towards my direction, mahihirapan kumuha ang couch na nasa kabilang side.

Without even saying a word, I immediately stand up and go over to his side and sat on his side.

"I hope you mind, Sir. Maliit lang po kasi ang table. I'll go back to the other couch after eating." I said without looking at him. My eyes is fixated in the sandwiches. Gutom na ako. I lied when I said I drank coffee.

I am already nervous and I don't want to add more to it by drinking coffee.

"Help your self." He said and he laughed a little.

We have 1 hour and 20 minutes on this flight and I hope everything will be fine. Enough embarrassment for now. Sa susunod nalang please?

I helped myself with the Clubhouse sandwich and I almost rolled my eyes as soon as I taste it.  It is heaven.

He just sipping on his coffee.

I just really hope we are always like this. In peace.
