Deimos' patience is not long like how he lives, but he's longing his patience for the woman he's carrying for almost an hour from now.
Sunna still can't get over with the beauty of the Moon that made her wanting to live here. She's not even flinching. Pakiramdam niya na sa iisang beses na kumurap siya mawawala niya ang iisang detalye kung paano unti unting nabubuo ang buwan.
"When do you get tired from watching the moon?" Deimos asked, konti na lang mawawala na ang pasensya niya.
"I'm not tired watching it. I love watching it for the rest of my life." Sunna smiled while still facing the moon.
"I'm tired carrying you." Deimos lied. He's not tired at all, but, he badly wanted to sit or even lay on the top of the moon. He never carry anyone for this long.
Sunna faced Deimos. Sunna pouted. "Five minutes." Sunna showed her hand like a kid wanting more time.
"No." Deimos replied. He won't buy that word. Once he said sometimes kailangang mangyari 'yon.
Sunna really wanted to watch the moon for long and she couldn't think of any more excuses that made her pout even more.
"Okay, we're good and we're going back." Deimos stated.
He's about to fly when Sunna cupped his cheeks. He froze on his place but Sunna moved his head to face her.
Deimos stared back at her.
"A little longer...?" Unti unting lumabas ang pang-batang ngiti ni Sunna.
Deimos' could bare how adorable she was so he replied. "Fine.", That he didn't expected to reply. It should be 'no' in thr first place but how did he end up replying 'fine'?
Is Sunna's adorable and endearing face is the answer to let the hard rock Guardian's heart melt?
Sunna giggled and squished Deimos' cheeks. "Salamat!"
"Whatever." Deimos' rolled his eyes. Sunna contain herself not to squeak out of excitement. She look back at the moon and Deimos' stare at her back again too.
Deimos boredly brushed his hair up. Ten minutes already had passed but Sunna is staring at the moon with do much adore that can made Deimos feel guilt if he would force Sunna to go back at the top of it so here is he, waiting patiently for Sunna.
"Ganda ganda nang color red o." Sunna pointed at the moon and squeak like a little kid and giggled out of excitement and happiness.
Deimos snapped his fingers. Sunna was stunt seeing herself seated on a cloud.
Agaran niyang nilingon si Deimos na nakaupo sa tabi niya, halatang halata ang panlulumo dahil masyado itong bored.
"You're really really really..." Sunna gave Deimos a look of adore and amusement. "Real."
Deimos sighed. "Just like I've told you."
Deimos got shivers crawled upon him when Sunna hugged her. Sunna even squished Deimos on her arms and giggled.
"Thank you! Thank you!" Sunna thanked him with gratitude.
Deimos awkwardly pat Sunna's back. He never encountered anyone who's sweeter than the cupcake, shining like the stars, a ray of the sun and glittered as a moon for gratitude and happiness just like Sunna.
Hindi niya man aminin o kumpirmahin ngunit alam niya mismo sa sarili niya na may konting sayang namuo dahil may tao siyang napasaya dahil sa konting pagbigay ng tanaw sa buwan.
"Thank you!"
"Okay, okay. You Thank me, okay na." Deimos scratched his ead. If Sunna will hug him for too long he would want more and badly... He'll be addicted to hugs because he never had one and this is the first time.
