Standalone

Heather

Going back to their old house, to take all the valuable belongings. Oscar didn't expect to see a familiar figure, the same innocent eyes, the confidence on her composure, wearing her signature color, the lady that once his, Lily

Lily is standing meters away from him, she gave him a stingy smile, reasons for him to freeze, the fresh air from their garden makes them shivers, after all these years, they're not yet ready to see each other

Lily looks at her side, looking through their mansion, a place they once called home

The memories start flooding, flashbacks of their once was a good relationship

Lily knocked on Oscar office, she had all the rights to enter, but privacy is her pride. "Come in, hon" Oscar managed to smile, they're both aware that their job is exhausting and time consuming, but they have each other, that's all matter

"Pagod ka na asawa ko, pahinga na tayo" she holds his face, caressing it gently with her soft touch, Oscar closed his eyes, feeling his wife warmth. "Kung iniisip mong made-delay yan, naka usap kuna yung mga investors, they're giving us one more day" she never failed him

"Salamat" he pulled her to hug, leaning his head on her belly and she continues playing with his hair

"Sya nga pala, sabi ni attorney malaki yung laban natin para sa lupa ng mga magsasaka. I told him na ako nalang yung darating sa hearing"

"Diba matagal pa yun?" He's updated with a lot of things, but there's really some matters that are slipping from his notice

"Na move sa monday" he stood up

"Anong gagawin ko kung wala?" With his soft gaze, he holds her face while her hand is resting on his chest. "Paano ako kung wala ka?" He kissed her on the lips, lips that perfect fit for each other

Snapping back to the reality, Oscar looks in front of him, but she's not in there anymore. Right, he had some matters to do, after sever years, he finally decided to visit their old home...

The door creaks, indicating that it's no longer in use. The ceiling is full of a spiderweb, the furniture is covered with dust. Just like what it looked like when he leave it, nothing change. He's supposed to go to their old room, but his feet lead him to the kitchen

Another flashback happens

Lily is baking, pastry, it's her hobby, aside from using it to kill time, Oscar really loves her food. "Ma'am, kaylangan nyo po ba ng tulong?" Teenager Liza wants to help her, but she always doesn't want that

"Gawin muna yung mga school works mo dun, kaya kona 'to" she smiles so beautiful, Oscar is just watching her, not until he wanted to mess up with her. He pretends to drink some water, when he had the chance, he pinches flour and wipes it on Lily's face. "Oscar!" Lily takes some flour too, but Oscar runs too fast for her. So she pretends like she's not going to fight anymore, but when Oscar is so close to her, she grabs a full fist of flour and throw it to Oscar that makes her die in laugher

"Ah ganon ah!" He locked her on his arm, while the other hand puts some flour on her hair

"Ikaw nag umpisa!" She squeals, "sige hindi ka makaka tikim ng pastry ko!" She threatened, but it didn't make him stop, he wrapped his arms around her from behind, not having a goddamned care about their looks

"I love you," he whispered in her ears, never he ever felt so much happiness, only she can bring him such kind of emotions

"Mahal na mahal din kita asawa ko" he kissed her on the cheek
