"I missed you so fucking much," Kai groaned in my neck as he hugged me tightly and without a care in the world at Changi Airport in Singapore. He insisted on picking me up despite my refusal. Wala din akong nagawa sa huli dahil pumunta talaga siya at sinundo ako sa airport.

He was wearing a pair of sunglasses and a baseball cap in an attempt to disguise himself but the knowing and curious looks in our way proved that the fans recognized him regardless.

Some of then started to walk towards us but Kai didn't seem to care as he cupped my jaw and kissed me deeply. I reluctantly pushed him lightly when I hear a commotion somewhere.

"Shit," mahinang usal niya nang makita ang mga security escorts na pilit pinipigilan mga fans na gustong lumapit sa kanya.

Agad na hinawakan niya ako sa balikat at nagmamadaling naglakad papunta sa exit. May naghihintay na puting Mercedez Benz sa labas ng airport at agad na sumakay kami sa loob.

"Are you okay, baby?" May pag-aalala sa boses na tanong niya pag-alis ng sasakyan sa airport.

"Y-Yes," I paused. "Nakita kaya nila ang mukha ko?" Nag-aaalalang tanong ko.

Matapos kasi ng naunang dating rumors tungkol sa amin ay hindi na kami tinantanan ng media. We were lucky because our condo has full security and we always found a way to dodge the nosy reporters. Alam ko din na may mga nakakakita sa aming lumalabas pa minsan-minsan dahil may mga articles na panaka-nakang lumalabas.

It was almost like I suddenly turned into a celebrity and I realized I didn't like it. I didn't like the attention the media kept on throwing our way. Ang hirap biglang gumalaw ng hindi ka pini-picturan. But I know what I was getting myself into with Kai. Hindi maiiwasan na ma-curious ang mga tao sa akin.

"Calliope, they already know who you are by now," he said as a matter of factly.

I bit my lower lip and nodded while he regarded me with a serious expression. My cheeks burned under his scrutiny.

"You don't like the attention," pahayag niya.

Umiwas ako ng tingin at nagpakawala ng buntong-hininga. "Hindi lang ako komportable."

"Why?"

I tried to chew on my nails to relieve the discomfort that I felt but he was quick to snatch my hand and clasped it in between his hands, kissing it making my heart stutter.

"Anong problema? Talk to me, baby," pangungumbinsi niya sa banayad na boses.

I sighed and swallowed thickly. "I'm...not as pretty as the women who were linked to you," nag-iinit ang mukhang sabi ko. "I'm not as pretty as...as that girl you were rumored to have a relationship with," puno ng insekyuridad na dagdag ko at binaling ang mga mata sa labas.

"You're right," sabi niya at hinawakan ang mukha ko para ipaharap ulit sa kanya. "You're not as pretty as them because you're much, much more beautiful, Calliope."

Ngumiwi ako. "Sinasabi mo lang 'yan."

Umarko ang itim na kilay niya. "Well, it's true. You have the most beautiful hazel eyes in the world, your dimples are as sexy as your freckles, I ache to lick them, which you already know by now. Your lips are soft, and pink and so fucking tempting. You're creative, talented and so beautiful in so many ways, Calliope," he said instensely, his eyes burning with desire. "You're the most beautiful girl in the world to me. Always and will be, got it? Now, don't tempt me to prove how just the sight of you turn me the fuck on," sabi niya at namilog ang mga mata ko nang dinala niya ang kamay ko sa kanya. "Feel that? Even my cock agrees, baby."
