Pink Skies

Achtundzwanzig.

After the dinner at Gracia's resthouse, Ramses is indeed busy again. 

Humalili muna siya sa counter dahil naka-break si Mary. Habang busy naman sa pagde-design ng cakes at cupcakes si Zy sa kitchen. 

Hindi naman pa gaano karaming tao sa loob ng shop, at nakatapos na rin siya maggawa ng reports. 

She heard the bell rings, indicating that someone went in. 

She looked up when someone was standing at the counter. 

"Hi! What's your order?" 

A tall good looking guy was looking at the menu up behind her. 

"One iced americano. And one slice of red velvet cake." 

"Okay. That'll be ***."

The guy handed her a black card. 

Muntik na siyang mapanganga. Pero naalala niyang si Ramses, meron din nito. 

"Thank you. We'll just serve it." 

The guy nodded and went to sit near the windows. 

Sakto namang pumasok na uli mula sa backdoor si Mary. 

"Hi, Ma'am!" 

"Oh? Tapos na break mo?" 

"Yes po." 

"Sige, I'll just serve this order." 

"Sige, ma'am." Mary smiled. 

Once she served the order on the guy, she went back to her office then Ramses showed up. 

"Hi, babe!" He brightly said.

He pulled her close and slumps his face on her shoulder. He hugs her. 

She just chuckles. "Hello. Akala ko busy ka?" 

She removes his face on her shoulder and cups it. 

"Yeah. I want to see you, and I'm meeting someone." 

Her brows knotted. "Hmm? Who?" She removes her hands. 

In which, Ramses put it back to his face, then pulled her much closer. 

He grins at her. "Jealous?" 

Rae rolled her eyes at him. "No." 

"Yeah, no." He scoffs and leaned in closer.

Rae put both of her hands on his lips.

"Can I not get a kiss?" He mumbles.

"Who're you gonna meet?" 

He walks toward her swivel chair and sits there while motioning her to come. 

She was just standing beside him, but then he pulled her, so she slumps on his lap. 

"Babe—" Rae suddenly blurted out. 

Ramses snakes his arms on his waist. He presses his forehead on her shoulder. 

"Okay ka lang?" She asked, worriedly. 

"Better." 

He looks up at her and she could clearly see that his cheeks have a hint of red. 

"Can I have a kiss?" He asked. 

She blinks twice and scrunched her nose. 

"Can I, babe?" He asked, but he's definitely pouting. 

Good Lord, bakit ba ang gwapo ng boyfriend niya? 

She leaned in to plant a soft quick kiss on his lips. When she was about to pull away, he moves his hand on her nape to pull her closer to him.
