"Where's your room?" Tanong ko sa kanya matapos makapasok ni ate kisha sa kwarto.

"In the second floor, room number twelve." Sagot nito, inunahan ko na siyang maglakad patungo sa hagdan.

We arrive at the second floor. I look around while walking, I was in awe because of the details, texture and designs. I never got a chance para libutin ang resort kaya ganto na lang ang gulat ko na makita ang second floor. Napakaganda, may malaking aquarium sa left side wall ng entrance, malaki and distance nito sa entrance para hindi patamaan ng pinto.

Pagkapasok namin sa kwarto niya ay ang una kong ginawa ay inilibot ko agad ang paningin sa bawat sulok ng kwarto ni Zakchaios. Mapapansin talaga na VIP room ang ini-occupy niya, maganda sa mata pagmasdan ang pinaghalong dark and light theme ng kwartong ito.

Hindi ko na siyang hinintay na paupuin ako bagkos ay umupo na ako agad sa malambot na sofa which he didn't mind at all. I saw him from my peripheral vision entering his room.

After a couple of minutes, bumalik siya na may hawak-hawak na papel sa kamay. I'm assuming that it's the contract. He comfortably sat in front of the single sofa and then handed me the paper.

Kinuha ko ito sa kamay niya at binasa muli ang kontrata.

"This contract is entered into by and between Zakchaios Sìth Montergo and Xochiquetzal Hanalei Valmorida. The term of this agreement shall begin on March and shall continue through until both parties agreed to." I read and look at him, he's wearing an eyeglasses, a round one. Nakayuko siya at hawak-hawak ang isang kopya ng kontrata.

Pinagmasdan ko lamang siya instead of reading the contract. I was caught off guard when he suddenly raised his head. I blushed and averted my eyes.

Bumalik ako sa pagbabasa ng kontrata. Nakasaad rito sa kontrata na maaring magdagdag at mag tanggal ng mga rules anytime and anywhere.

"Have you read the contents and the benefits?" He asked, I nodded. The benefits depends sa request na sasabihin or something.

"Pahiram nga ako ng ballpen." Saad ko rito at may ipinasa naman siyang ballpen, I took it at pumirma sa lugar kung saan dapat pipirma at matapos 'yon ay ibinigay ko sa kanya ang kontrata.

"The Rules that was stated in the contract was the rules I made." Simula nito, hindi niya kinuha ang contract na binigay ko sa kanya, "Rule number one, party b shall never do something that will shame party A." I raised my eyebrow.

I read the contract once again. "Rule number two, both parties are prohibited to date nor see someone else." I nodded while scratching my neck, well fair enough. Even though our relationship is just a contractual one kinakailangan pa rin na dapat wala kaming ibang karelasyon.

"Would you like to add some rules?" He asked, I look at him, nakaupo siya at nakasandal sa couch, mas lalong naging visible ang biceps niya dahil sa fit na white t-shirt na suot-suot niya, he lowered his face and gave upon me.

I suddenly feel chills running down through my spine due to the gaze he gave me. Parang kahit kailan ay maaari niya akong makain kahit saan man niya gustuhin.

"Sunod na, I'm not rushing things. I can add rules whenever and anywhere naman." I gave him may sweetest smile, biglaan rin akong tumayo at hinila ang sleevless niya.

You can't see any shock from his face, it remained blank and calm.

"Ikaw naman inaasar lang kita." I pouted and retreated back. I placed the contract on the table and started walking away but I stop midway and look back.
