Nung lunes na nga kami sunod na nagkita. Hindi ako pinatahimik ng utak ko nung linggo kaya pakiramdam ko, ang stressed ko.
No matter how much I want to try to not think too much about things, ang hirap.
I know Cairo and with what he's acting lately? It's weird. I know it's weird. There's something wrong but he's not telling me.
He doesn't want to tell me.
Nailing ako. Nakamukmok lang ako dito sa condo. Ang bigat ng pakiramdam ko pero wala naman akong sakit. Siguro dala na rin ng mga isiping ito. Kaya nga gusto kong wag pansinin at wag mag isip masyado pero ang hirap.
I didn't even notice the time anymore. I just realized it was already afternoon when someone knocked on my door. Agad akong napatingin sa orasan at nang makitang lampas 3pm na ay naisip kong baka si Cairo iyon.
Nastress man dahil sa kanya ay hindi ko maiwasang maexcite na makita muli ito.
I fixed myself first before opening the door. Napakurap kurap ako ng siya nga ang nasa may pinto.
A smile immediately formed on my lips. I stepped forward to give him a hug. He hugged me tight, kissed my forehead before letting me go. He gave me a smile.
"I missed you," he said in a low voice.
I bit my lips, nagpipigil ng ngiti. I nodded and opened the door wide for him to enter. Hindi naman ito nagsalita na at sumunod na lang rin.
"Wala ka sa bahay kaya pumunta ako dito." Sabi nito ng makaupo sa sofa.
I stood in front of him, nakahawak sa bewang ang isang kamay.
"Hindi ako nakapunta. I didn't notice the time."
Napasulyap ito sa relo bago sakin.
"Almost 4pm." Sabi niya.
Bumusangot ako, "Alam ko."
His brows furrowed, naguguluhan na ikinatawa ko. Ang cute. After all the thinking he caused, siya pa rin ang rason bakit ako nakangiti.
He sighed before he moved on the sofa, giving all his weight to it. Mukhang pagod.
I pouted, "Did you eat already?"
"Yeah, have you?"
I licked my lips when I realized I haven't yet! Napaiwas ako ng tingin dito lalo ng mapakunot noo siya dahil sa reaction ko.
He sighed, "I'm gonna cook. Anong gusto mo?"
"Wag na. Let's just order. Rest ka lang jan." Sabi ko.
Hinawakan ko ito sa dalawang balikat niya at tinulak pabalik sa sofa dahil akma itong tatayo. His brows furrowed more because of what I did.
"Order nalang." Ulit ko.
Napabuntong hininga ito bago tumango. Sumandal muli sa sofa. But he also pulled me with him. I ended up sitting on his lap, sideways. He hugged my waist and buried his face on my neck.
"Were you mad at me?"
Napakurap kurap ako dahil sa biglaang tanong nito. Sinabi niya iyon sa mahinang boses.
"What are you saying?" Malumanay kong tanong.
He sighed, "I know you're mad last Saturday. And I bet yesterday and now, too."
"I'm not." I immediately denied.
"Duda ako."
Hinarap niya ako matapos sabihin iyon. Ayan na naman ang mata niyang mapanuri. He's examining me! He's looking for answers through my expressions.
