BBM :

I was pressing sara on the door while were both kissing each other intensely.

Hinde maitago ang pananabik naming pareho sa isa't isa that our body and lips are just doing the talking.

Nakakapit ang dalawang kamay niya sa balikat ko at marahang sinusuklay ang buhok ko,

Habang ako naman ay nakayakap ang kamay sa bewang niya, gently pulling her body more closer to mine.

We were on the verge of an intense moment when my phone suddenly vibrated inside my pocket na nagpa igtad samin pareho sa gulat.

Inis naman na napabitaw sa akin si sara.

"Urghh sino ba yan?!" bakas sa boses ni niya ang inis dahil sa istorbo na kahit ako ay parang gusto din magdabog.

Inis kong kinuha sa bulsa ko ang phone at handa na sanang pagsabihan ang kung sino man ang isturbo,

Pero nagbago ang isip ko na makita ang pangalan ng PSG kong si ray na inutosan kong ihanda ang mga kakailanganin ko ngayong gabi.

I sent ray my reply then looked at sara then gave her a smouldering face.

"I'm sorry bab but we have to cut this for the meantime, I still have to grant you a dare you thought I can't fulfill" I said with a smirk then planted a soft kiss on her temple.

Nagtataka naman niya akong tinitigan.

"What do you mean?" she asked,

I leaned closer to her to whisper on her ear.

"I told you earlier that you have to be careful cuz I might take you away, but you under estimated me"

Pinaalala ko sa kanya ang pang aasar niya sa akin kanina na ikinapanlaki ng mata niya ng bahagya.

"Hey, when did I?--" napatigil siya at nahihiyang napaiwas ng tingin nung makita niya ang malaking ngiti ko.

How can she look so damn cute from this faint gleaming light produced by that small lamp I used for this whole room.

"I want to runaway and steal some time with you tonight bab, will you go with me? I promise to bring you back before the crack of dawn"

I held her hand in pressed it gently,

I looked at her eyes while giving her my warmest smile to ease her uncertainty.

"Saan naman tayo pupunta?" hinde parin siguradong tanong niya.

She's battling with herself while looking at my eyes.

Alam kong nag aalala siya sa sitwasyon, marahil iniisip niya na I'm still not supposed to come out yet from my ongoing quarantine period.

"You don't have to worry I'm already allowed to go out, sinadya ko lang talaga na ipa announce na bukas pa ako pwedeng lumabas so I can have this time with you without giving anyone a hint" I explained.

Mukhang nakahinga naman siya ng maluwag dahil sa sinabi ko kaya napangiti naman agad siya.

"Where are you planning to take me then?" she asked,

Her right hand teasingly hold onto my nape and her other hand clutch the side of my shirt while smiling at me like an innocent tiger lurking, ready for an ambush.

'she's doing it again'

"Stop it inday sara, I planned a long drive ahead of us--" mariing pagtanggi kopa nung una pero bigla din akong napatigil nung biglang may pumasok sa isip ko, "--but I can always ditch it to spend some quality time with you in a four corners of the room just beside this one if you only ask"
