GLOOMY WEATHER

They had no schedule for the day, so Ken and Justin decided to go to Tagaytay again at Justin's family rest house.

They were just sitting at a bench near the lake—their favorite spot. They had put a mark on it and made it specifically for them.

All of Justin's relatives knew about it to the point that whenever they gathered there and alam nilang darating si Ken and Justin, they kept it vacant for them. Families on both sides are so supportive of them.

It was a peaceful, gloomy morning, which they both love. Justin was sitting at the end of the bench while Ken was lying on his lap. Saoirse and Kuro were both in his chest, sleeping peacefully.

"Ay 'ga, ang cute nito, try natin 'to!" Justin suddenly said.

"Hmm? Ano yan?" Ken asked.

"Random questions for couples, ang cute. Nakita ko lang sa X." Justin answered.

Ken smiled, "Okay, bring it on"

"Okay, first, "When we first met, what did you think of me?" Justin asked.

"'Ga, we are both gonna answer, right?" he clarified.

"Yes 'ga. Answer na, you go first."

"Mabait, soft-spoken, mahinhin, tahimik." Ken answered.

Justin smiled, "Hmmm. Totoo naman lahat yun."

"Haha, feel na feel 'ga ha. Ikaw?" he asked

He answered, "Mayabang na mabait, tapos tahimik din."

Ken nods, aggreeing to him.

"Next, 'What physical feature of mine do you like the most?' Ako muna mag answer 'ga, I love your lips and your jaw." Jah even touched Ken's lips with his thumb.

Ken smile sheepishly, "Ako yung adam's apple mo?"

He didn't expected that so he asked, "really? bakit?"

Ken looked up to him, "Kasi masarap i-suck."

Justin blushed, "Hay naku Suson! Nang-aasar ka lang eh!"

He looked him in his eyes, "Totoo yun 'ga, pero aside from that I also love your eyes...and your teeth, ang perfect eh. I love it when you smile."

Justin laughed, "Ay ang galing mo dun 'ga, kasi next question is 'What do you love the most about my smile?' Me muna mag answer, you're smile is genuine 'ga. Hindi ka magssmile if you don't feel like smiling talaga. I mean you're very honest to yourself and I love that. Kaya I wanted to make you smile more, it makes me happy too." he explained smiling.

Ken went speechless but after a moment spoke, "Before I answer, pa-kiss muna ako 'ga." lambing niya. Justin bent down without any second thought and gave him a kiss on the lips.

"I appreciate your efforts 'ga pero gusto kong malaman mo, na your presence alone can make me happy. But to answer the question, hmm, what I love the most about your smile is that, you may not be aware of it pero your smile can uplift anyone's mood. Alam mo yun 'ga? Nakakahawa yung ngiti mo, kahit badtrip na tao pag ngitian mo, parang biglang magiging okay na agad  ganun." he explained.

Justin scrunched his nose trying to suppress a smile, so Ken teased him, "'Ga, wag mong pigilan smile mo, nahahalata sa fluffy cheeks mo 'oh. Third question palang kinikilig ka na haha." he said.

"Heh! Next na." Justin placed his hand to Ken's arm. "What comes to mind when you think of our connection?"

"Hmm. Infrangible." Ken nods as he answered, "Ikaw?" 

"Permanent. Our connection is permanent." Justin smiles. 

"Next na 'ga, 'If you had one day left to live, what would you do?' Justin asked.
