"Hey, butter! How's work?" She smile widely at Hellion when he went straight to the kitchen when he got home.
"Oh, is there an occasion we need to celebrate?" Mangha ngunit nagtatakang tanong ni Hellion at lumapit sa kanya.
Matamis siyang ngumiti rito saka umiling, nakita niyang bahagyang naapektuhan ang binata sa ngiti na 'yun.
"Wow, did I tell you that you look different today?"
"Hmm? Silly, there's nothing unusual, Hellion." She chuckled and face her cooking.
Agad na nawala ang ngiti niya ng talikuran niya ang binata.
Nag-ayos siya. Like the high maintenance Clea before. She even dressed up and hide her jeans, ahorts and shirts. She's wearing dress and applied some light make up.
Gumanda siya lalo, oo.
Muntik na siyang napatalon ng yumakap ang binata mula sa likuran niya.
"I miss you the whole day. I'm so tired from work but upon seeing you right now, nawala ang pagod ko."
Mahina siyang natawa sa sinabi nito.
"Bolero."
"Hmm...you smell good, too." Sabi nito habang inamoy-amoy ang leeg niya.
"Hellion, nagluluto ako." Sawat niya sa binata ng nagsimula itong patakan ng halik ang leeg niya.
"Hmm? Akala ko ikaw ang pagkain ko."
"Hellion!"
"Just kidding, ketchup. Ang dali mong mainis, may laman na ba?" He asked the he caress her tummy.
Nanlaki ang mata niya sa sinabi nito.
"Wala! I'm on my period today."
"What? Urgh."
Aba, mukhang may plano. Oras na siguro para magtake ng pills, mahirap na.
Hinain na niya ang pagkain habang nakasunod pa rin sa kanya ang binata.
"Hellion, magbihis ka na nga."
Napasimangot ang binata.
"No, you're always calling me Hellion. Isang beses mo lang akong tinawag ngayon ng butter tapos puro Hellion na."
She sighed and face him. She cupped his face and planted a kiss on his lips. Akmang lalayo na siya ng hapitin siya papalapit ng binata at nilaliman ang paghalik sa kanya.
"Damn. Kung ganito ang mangyayari kada uwi ko ng trabaho, I'll go home after every 5 minutes." Anas ng binata.
She chuckled and playfully hit his chest.
"Sira. Magbihis ka na nga. Gisingin mo na rin si Leo para makakain na."
"Okay, commander." Saludo nito at agad na nilisan ang kusina.
The positive aura on her face immediately vanished as soon as Hellion exited the kitchen.
'You're still beautiful and definitely glowing because it looks like Hellion took care of you but... I remember that's not Hellion's type.'
Napalingon siya sa salamin sa dingding.
Ganito ba ang type ni Hellion?
She dressed up and make up not just because she doesn't want to lose Hellion and she want him to admire her but because she wanted to be confident again, to be that Clea she used to know.
Why is she doing this?
Because she's running out of time.
She can hear the ticking of the clock, telling her that her time with them is almost up.
At least, if she's gone already, she left good memories with them to keep.
