It's been months since our relationship started. So far, it's going smoothly. No one knows about us. Well, maybe except from Kaiden and Alona who were always throwing a teasing stare at us.

"Hey..."

Napapairap ako nang may brasong yumakap sa akin mula sa likuran. Hindi na ako nagulat nang makita si Giovanni sa kuwarto ko. In the past months, it was his habit on sneaking on my room. At first, I scolded him for doing those things but when the time passed by, I get used to it.

I'm afraid. I have already get used on his presence with me. I'm afraid I'll get used to him that much and time will come where I'll be having a difficulty on moving on towards him. We'll never know if we're still together until the end.

I heaved a deep sigh.

I just hope nothing will happen to us. On our relationship.

"What are you thinking?" He hemmed as he splayed his head a little to see my reaction.

"Wala," pagsisinungaling ko. Tinanggal ko ang brasong nakayakap sa baywang ko at umupo sa upuang nasa harapan ng malaking salamin.

I removed the towel on my head. As expected, Giovanni helped me removed the towel. He even helped me combing my hair like what he usually does for the past months.

"Motor ba ulit o kotse?" tanong niya sa akin habang sinusuklay parin ang buhok ko.

I looked at his reflection on the mirror. "Motor lang ulit. I need to be early on school. I had a quick meeting for our final project."

"Can I also attend?"

Napapairap ako. "Tourism student ka?" pambabara ko sa kanya.

"I can. It was our school."

Napapasagitsit ako sa sinabi niya. Ngumisi lang siya sa akin.

"Hindi na."

Tumayo na ako. "Labas ka na. Aalis na tayo."

Tumango siya dahilan para tumalikod ako. I walked to my door and opened it. Nagulat ako nang pagbukas ko ay sumalubong sa akin ang mukha ni Kaiden.

I was stopped for a moment before I gave him a smile. Nawala ang ngiti ko nang mapansin na tumagos ang paningin niya sa likuran ko.

"The fuck?" pagmumura ko nang makita si Giovanni sa likuran ko. "What are you doing here?"

Napapakunot-noo siya sa akin. "You told me to go out. I'll be going out."

I gritted my teeth as I glared at him. Mabubuking kami nang wala sa oras nito, e!

"Sinabi ko bang dito ka lumabas? Do'n ka sa balcony! Do'n ka pumasok, 'di ba?"

Napapasimangot lang siya sa akin. Nagulat ako nang lumabas siya bago tumingin sa akin.

"Nakalabas na."

I hissed at him. Kaiden secretly smiled at us as he shook his head.

"What's happening?"

Nagulat ako nang marinig ang boses na 'yon. Ilang beses akong napapamura bago humarap kay Mr. Silvestre.

"Mr. Silvestre," I say, respecting him.

He just smiled at me before looking at the two boys in front of my room.

"What are you two doing here?" Nanliit ang mga mata niya, nakatingin sa dalawa. "You don't have any secret relationship with her, right?"

Kita ko ang pagsasalubong ng kilay ni Giovanni. Nang akmang magsasalita na siya ay kaagad ko siyang sinamaan ng tingin, binabalaan sa paraang 'yon.
