I'm leaving the cafe early because I have a nail appointment at 2 pm. Hindi pa nga rin ako kumakain ng lunch sa sobrang busy sa cafe dahil sa dami ng bookings. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful ha, nalilito lang talaga ako dahil mabilis akong ma-overwhelm. Haha!

"Hey, beautiful." I heard someone speak from my left side when I got out of the door. I turned around, only to see that it was Theno.

This man, really! Hindi na 'to pumalya sa pagbisita sa cafe mula no'ng umamin siya sa'kin. Minsan nga napapaisip ako kung may trabaho pa ba ito o ano eh, parang lagi siyang available. Hahaha!

He even gives me random gifts on random occasions, like the other day, binigyan ako ng isang bouquet ng red roses. 'Just because' roses daw 'yon. I found it sweet.

"What are you doing here?" I asked with a smile.

"Just stopping by. Mukhang maaga kang uuwi?"

"Ah hindi, I have a nail appointment kasi. Sama ka?"

Pumamulsa siya habang naglalakad palapit sa'kin. "Sure, tara." He held out his hand to me, something that I already got used to him doing.

Woah, sasama nga talaga siya.

I held his hand, and before we could even take a step, I felt him already intertwining our fingers together.

~~~~~~

"Okay ka lang dyan?" Tanong ko sa kaniya kasi nakaupo lang siya sa waiting area habang pinapanood akong linisan ng kuko.

"Yup."

"If you're bored, tell me ha. You can stroll outside naman while waiting for me." I told him. I know naman na this is not usually a guy's ideal place to hang out. Eh kaso, sumama siya eh. Hahaha!

He smiled then got up and he...

He headed to the front desk?

What's he doing? Kinakausap niya 'yung babae sa front desk.

After their conversation, one of the staff led him to the chair beside me.

"What's happening?" I asked him as he was sitting to the chair next to me.

"I'm getting a foot massage." He grinned like a little boy.

Gusto kong matawa dahil sa sobrang cute ng pagkakasabi niya no'n. "Really? Why?"

He shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know? So, we can call this our pamper day." He answered while wiggling his brows.

I can hear some of the staff giggling in a low volume.

Totoo nga, nagpa-foot massage lang siya para daw may makasabay ako. Ang cute!!! Hahaha!

~~~~~

It was around 4:30 when we finished. I got my nails done and he had a good foot massage daw. Nag-enjoy. Haha!

"Your nails look great." He complimented while holding my hand.

I chuckled, lightly hitting him on the shoulder. "Don't be silly, they're just nude-colored nails, nothing fancy."

"No, I mean it." He said then he caressed my knuckle with his thumb.

Nasanay na ako na hinahawak hawakan niya 'yung kamay ko, either holding hands, intertwined, or simply touching my hand so he could look at it. Of course, I let him, wala naman siyang masamang ginagawa.
