I felt like my tongue just got ripped out of my mouth because I couldn't find my words, kaya hanggang sa makabalik kami sa kung nasaan 'yong mga pinsan niya ay tahimik ako.
God, I've been in this relationship for six years but I still couldn't handle his romantic cheesiness and...everything about him.
I never lost a debate or an argument because I always have something to say. Only my husband could make me speechless.
I was quiet the whole time we drove back to their mansion, but it ended when I saw a familiar black Raptor pick-up truck.
Getting out, I made my way toward it to confirm my suspicion, and then slowly, its door opened to reveal the man I haven't seen for months since he left for Harvard law.
"Kuya!" Wren sprinted to greet his brother. He hugged him and patted his back while the other stayed standing like a statue.
Wolf just moved when he nodded at me for greetings, so I did the same but smiled a little.
They talked to catch up with their lives while they were apart for months. I just watched them until a soft click snatched my attention.
I turned my head toward the direction it came from and I just couldn't explain my shock when I saw who it was.
"Keisha!" I exclaimed my friend's name.
I haven't even seen her face yet but I knew it was her because a pink stiletto and a glittery handbag peeked at the slightly opened door of the Raptor's passenger seat.
"Oh, hi, Loreen!" She smiled and waved at me as she went out of the vehicle.
"What are you doing here?" I asked and walked to get closer to her.
I was just talking to her over the phone this morning! And she was supposed to be in Italy for two weeks! Pang isang linggo palang ngayon.
"I got bored." She shrugged and clung her bag over her shoulder.
"Where's Mika?" I looked around to find my other friend but she was nowhere in sight.
Keisha shrugged again. "Dunno. We parted ways in the airport." She sighed, and then opened her arms to wrap it around me. "Oh my, I missed you, Loreen."
She embraced me so I gave it back because I actually missed her too.
I didn't know that I would look for her loudness but I did.
"I have some pasalubong for you," she said and pulled my hand to show me it but it was in a big suitcase so we called for assistance first.
But since the twins were busy, sa mga butlers nalang kami nagpatulong. We asked them to carry her suitcases up to the guest room where Keisha will stay.
We tailed them behind hanggang sa makarating kami sa guest room at sinarado 'yong pinto after they left.
"Come here. I'll show you," Keisha told menand sat on the clean wooden floor para mas madali niyang mabuksan 'yong maleta niya.
I joined her on the floor and helped with unpacking until most of her things were already out.
"This is from Venice, Florence, Milan, Turin, Rome, Pisa..." She showed me different keychains as she mentioned the Cities where she got them.
They almost visited all of the places in Italy so I couldn't help but be a little jealous, but it was okay because I still felt like I was there because of these pasalubongs.
"That is all yours." Keisha pouted her lips to point on the suitcase behind me. "Get it," she demanded, so I did.
I pulled it until it was already in between us and carefully unzipped to reveal what was inside.
