I dreamed of Levi kissing me under the stars.  I don't know what his kiss tastes like because I woke up and couldn't remember anything. The wind caressed my face. I looked outside the window. I'm in the car, and the sun is shining. What did I dream again?

I looked at the driver's seat and was stunned for a few minutes. I frowned. "Lyndon?"

"You're awake."

I looked outside the window. "Where are you taking me?"

"Sit back. We're driving home."

"Home?" My forehead creased even more. "What home?"

The car stopped when the traffic light turned red in the distance. The Lyndon turned to me. "Stop playing tricks, Larica. What happened to you? Earlier, you seemed stressed and haven't slept."

"Huh?" I turned to him and stared at his face.

The car started running again. I shook my head and closed my eyes tightly. "Hey, what am I doing in your car?"

He clicked his tongue and laughed a little. "I'll take you from the airport to the terminal, from Lapu-Lapu pier to pier 3, and from there to the fishing port..." He shook his head. "You ungrateful brat."

"Ungrateful your ass. Papa asked you to drive me home?"

He smirked. "No." He turned the car. "I volunteered. I called Mr. Larica, and your father asked me to drop you at the fishing port. But he also took it back and said I'll take you to Boljoon."

"Wait, why am I here in the car?"

He frowned. "You don't remember?"

I leaned against the backrest. Did I forget something? Wait, what did I do? The only thing I remembered was... "Hayst. My head aches so much. It must be a hangover," I whispered.

"You've attended Vine's concert in Panglao." He sighed. "You seemed having lack of sleep instead of being drunk. Are you being naughty again?"

I was quiet for a moment, remembering what happened. Ah, yes. The Vine's concert. I smiled.  "Great, that concert was fun!"

I saw him turn to me out of the corner of my eye. "Your backpack is in the back. Next time, come with me. Just like that, you're going to pass out. If I hadn't seen you at the airport, you might still be in the city by now."

"Well, Tiden should be with me. But..." My eyes narrowed. "He still has a meeting with sponsors. I went first because I don't want to rebook a ticket."

He glanced at me with a dark aura. "You haven't answered my question. What happened to you and why is your face like that? Did you even sleep the night before?"

"Didn't sleep?" I frowned. Maybe I slept? Even though I stay up reading, I don't neglect sleep.

He stopped the car at a fast food. "Let's have breakfast first."

"Where are we?"

"El Pardo."

I went down and looked at the fast food. I followed Lyndon inside. There were only a handful of customers and crew. He first led me to a chair and he himself queue in the counter.

How many days will I be there in Panglao? Why do I seem to be changing around? It's like I've been gone for years...

"Larica."

I sat straight and looked up. "Huh?" It's Lyndon.

He was already sitting across from me and his ordered meal was already served on the table.
  
"What's happening? You seem lost," he asked.
