"Good morning sunshine,"
I cracked my eyes open and looked beside me and saw him grinning at me. "Good morning, too." I greeted as I bit back a yawn as he spread the curtains wide open.
I felt the bedside sank low and I looked up and saw him sitting there watching me. I rubbed my eyes, trying to adjust to the light coming from the window. Damn. Tapat pa talaga sa pwesto ko.
"Slept well?" I nodded.
"What?" I asked as I felt him stare at me. Nakaka-insercure kaya, kung makatitig kasi, akala mo tutunawin ka. He really has that effect on women.
He chuckled and ruffled my hair. "Baka kasi gutom ka na?" I cocked my eyebrow at him. Ano naman connect nun? "I was just about to ask kung ano gusto mo as breakfast."
"You'll cook?" I asked, a bit surprised. Aba. Malay ko ba. "You, Damon Aldrin Alvarez, know how to cook?"
Ok. I sound OA. But hell. This guy knows how to cook! It was a surprise. I never knew that he could. What do you expect? I've never spent an overnight with him so it was a shock to know that he actually could.
He looked shocked and acted hurt. "You wound me." He said. "Of course, I know how to cook, your Highness."
"WEH?"
He nodded. "Aba malamang. Paano ako kumakain sa tingin mo?" he asked annoyed.
I shrugged as I stood up from the bed, fixing the bed in the process. "Malay mo may taga-luto ka di ba? Or fast food chains? There are a lot of options out there."
I heard him murmur chains of curses and I had to stifle back a laugh. Ang cute talaga niya mainis. Laging bumubulong ng kung anu-ano. He looked like the kid I knew back then. Always having a tantrum. Higit sa lahat, mabilis inisin. He seemed to be the same.
"What are you laughing at?"
I snapped back to attention as I saw his face mere inches away from mine. Damn. Eto ayaw ko kapag lumilipad isip ko at kasama ko siya eh. He moved so silently that I couldn't even hear him unless he's just inches away from me. And I still can remember his threat about me laughing at his expanse.
"I'm not laughing." I said as I pulled my face away from him and inched away bit by bit. "And please, keep your face out my way. I can smell your bad breath, dude." And before he could react, I throw him the throw pillow and ran to the bathroom.
And I finally let out the laugh that I kept from him as I heard him mutter curses just outside the door.

"What's on the itinerary?"
He stopped walking and turn around towards me, "What do you think am I? A fucking tour guide?"
I smiled sheepishly and decided to tease him. "No, my personal fucking tour guide." And I laugh as his face reddened when I heard people chuckling around us.
After muttering a line of curses as well as glaring at everyone who look our way, we continued walking. After breakfast, I decided to drag him around. And of course, since hindi ko naman alam pasikot-sikot dito, nawala kami. But the good thing with him around, malakas sense of direction niya. Though I have a sense of direction, mas siya kaysa sakin. That's why I let him lead the way for both of us until we managed to come out where it was familiar.
