Three days later, now I am preparing for his breakfast. He decided to let me cook for him and to take care of his food, that should be a low-calorie. I sighed before putting down the apron and I went inside his walk-in closet.

Usually mga kulay black, grey, brown, light blue at light brown ang nanditong suit sa closet niya kaya ang pinili ko ay ang kulay grey at puting polo na long sleeve, saka ang pantalon niyang kulay grey na pares ng jacket suit.

Bumaba ang tingin ko sa mga neckties niya. Inilibot ko ang paningin ko at bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko nang makita ko ang neck tie na regalo ko sakanya noong bago ko siya iniwan sa ospital.

Naalala ko na nilagay ko lang iyong box sa side table noon eh kasi nga alam kong magtetake siya ng business. Kulay black siya na plain at walang kahit na anong design kasi gusto niya lang ng plain colors, pinasadya kong ilagay ang pangalan niya sa neck tie niya.

Akma ko iyong hahawakan nang biglang pumasok si Enzo na walang suot na pang-itaas pero may nakalibot na tuwalya sa beywang niya.

Agad akong umiwas ng tingin ng bumaba ang tingin niya sa kamay ko at lalo na dahil ayaw kong tumingin sa katawan niya. Hindi na din siya gaya nong dati na walang abs pero ngayon ay meron na pati muscles na meron, Jusko! Huwag malandi Mckenzie!

"Don't touch that! I didn't allow you to touch any of my necktie, especially that plain one you're touching lately."

Dali-dali siyang lumapit sa kinatatayuan ko at kinuha niya ang box ng necktie na regalo ko noon sakanya at pinagkatitigan iyon bago nagsalita. "Ably told me that this necktie was from my girl that I love."

Napalunok ako nang tumingin siya sa akin.

He shrugged. "I don't know why she gave me this, maybe as a farewell gift?"

He smirked then he brush his wet hair.

"Is that even called love? She left me alone in that hospital then months ago: I'd dreamed about her but it's not so clear. I tried to ask my family, my friend who she is but they told us they didn't know about that girl. Isn't she too selfish? I'm fucked up."

He chortled when he saw my face. "Why are you pale, you're not even that girl that I'm talking right?" He teased.

I cleared my throat before speaking. "Maybe she has a reason why she left you without you knowing." I tried not to stutter, because God knows what I'm feeling right now.

Tumaas ang kilay niya at muntik akong mapapikit nang ikinulong niya ako gamit ang magkabilang braso niya. "You don't know what you're saying because that woman..."

He closed his eyes tightly before opening it, like he did that to calm himself.

"You don't know what I've been through these past years and I hate myself for having an amnesia to forget who she is, I don't like it but she's like a beautiful nightmare to me."

Ikinuyom ko ang mga kamay ko saka yumuko para makaalis sa kanya. "I'll get going, sir. I will wait for you inside your car."

"Wait." Lumingon ako sakanya ng nakakunot-noo. "Come here."

"What?"

He sighed. "I said come here and fix my necktie." Iiling na sana ako nang magsalita siya ulit. "One, two..."

"But you told me not to touch any of your neck tie!"

"Did I?" His eyes twinkled in an amusement.

"Yes." I nodded.

"I don't remember that I said those words, besides, I am the boss here so you should follow what I am saying." He said then I heard that he sipped his pants.

Gosh! I can't believe I'm still in a room with him while he's changing clothes. Buti nalang nakatalikod na ako.

"Okay." I breathed-heavily before walking toward him and I get his necktie from his hand and I glare at him.

Kung akala niya lang por que siya ang boss eh. Nagkakamali siya! Under ka nga noon sa akin!

Nahigit ko ang hininga ko dahil tumama ang sikat ng araw sa mismong abs niya, oo plural kasi naman six packs abs niya. Lalo niya dahil inaayos niya ang butones ng white polo niya, napalunok ako dahilan para tumingin siya sa akin. His lip lifted to the other side. "Am I that hot?" He teased.

I quickly look away. "I don't know what you're talking about." Ani ko saka tumingin sa relo. "Sir, hindi sa nagmamadali ako pero pwede bang dalian mo kasi malelate na po tayo."

Napadako ang tingin ko sakanya nang ngumisi siya ng matunog. "I like it, that you're so brave when you're talking with me."

"Sir..."

"Alright put on my necktie now." He cut me from talking.

I exhaled before going infront of him. Now I can smell his scent, my favorite scent, and his minty breath. I averted my gazes into his face and then I focus on fixing his necktie, not minding his gazes free on me.

I checked his necktie if it was good then I spoke. "There..." I said as I looked up onto him but it was a wrong move because he held my chin and it was a swift move when our lips met.

He bit my lower lip that's why I gasped then he took the chance to put invade my mouth and his tongue touches mine.

I was about to push him and to slap him when he took a step backward and held his head, his eyes were tightly closed as he held the table near his standpoint, as if doon siya kumukuha ng lakas.

Natunaw ang galit na nararamdaman ko at napalitan iyon ng pag-aalala.

"Sir." Dahan-dahan akong lumapit sakanya.

He blinked three times as he stood there like nothing happened.

"A-are you o-okay?" Napangiwi ako.

"Yeah. Let's go." Kinuha niya ang jacket suit niya na nalagay sa upuan at saka iyon isinuot bago lumabas sa walk-in closet niya.

Ganon nalang iyon? Hahalikan ako tapos aalis? Mas lalo niya lang akong pinapaasa sa wala.

I shook my head.

May kung anong tumusok sa puso ko nang hindi man lang niya ako tinapunan ng tingin o kahit ano man. Wala man lang akong natanggap na salitang 'sorry' o 'hindi ko sinasadya.'

He's just giving me hope again and then left, this must be my karma.
