What Vienson said last night didn't let me sleep. It kept on playing inside my mind, giving me a hard time sleeping, but I still managed to wake up early since we were leaving early.

"Oh, nakapanlakad ka ata ngayon, anak? May pupuntahan ka ba?" Mama Mila asked, matapos nya akong puntahan sa kwarto so I gave her a smile.

"Opo, mama. Sir Vienson asked me to accompany him today," I said then continued fixing my worn clothes.

"Saan?" She asked, nanliit ang mga mata nya habang nakatitig sa'kin so I gave her a smile.

"He said we're going to fetch his sister at the airport."

She took a deep breath, as if she's having a second thought about it. "Sige. Tandaan mo lang yung bilin ko ah? Huwag ka'ng mag papadala sa matamis na mga salita ni sir Vienson, hija. Ayaw kong may pag sisihan ka sa huli." Aniya.

Hinalikan ko naman sya sa pisnge at ngumiti sa kaniya. "Rest assured ma, no worries I can handle myself," I said smiling sweetly kaya napangiti na rin ito.

"Alam ko naman yun, Kyla. Kasi matalino ka'ng bata. Sige, mag ingat kayo ha?" Aniya kaya tumango ako at agad nang lumabas ng kwarto tsaka bumaba.

"Good morning!" Sir Vienson chirped with a smile, so I smiled as well, but not as lively as his because I was still a bit embarrassed to face him, and still couldn't get over his confession from last night.

"Good morning too, sir Vienson," I respond. He took him off me and went back to reading while sipping his coffee with his other hand, so I had the chance to thoroughly examine his behavior, but he seemed not affected at all,  unlike me.

I'm almost sleep-deprived from his confession last night and nearly can't face him because of embarrassment, but he's here, acting as if he didn't have a cringe-worthy confession from last night.

"Starring is rude, Xyr. Eat your breakfast first, we will leave right after you take your first meal." He said. Yes

"What time would your sister arrive?"

"7:30 AM," I nod in understanding.

I don't usually eat heavy breakfast so I took only one egg salad sandwich and one hotdog. So I immediately finished it within a few minutes.

"Is that it?" His forehead creased while looking at me, and I raised both of my eyebrows to give him a 'what' look. "Yun lang yung kakainin mo?" He asked again, clearly this time, so I nodded my head.

"I don't like heavy breakfast and I don't usually have breakfast. So, I'm fine with what I ate."  I answered making him sigh.

"Ang hinhin mo na ngang kumain, kakaunti pa. Just wait till I become your man; I'll make sure that you'll eat every meal and will ensure you eat a lot." He said making me blush.

Gosh! I'm not used to this kind of conversation so I don't know how to respond to him.

What? Since when did my socializing  skills and conversation skills became like this? What the hell is happening to me these days?

He breathed out heavily for not receiving any response from me, "If you're done already, we can go now. Baka traffic na naman patungong airport, baka ma traffic pa tayo." He said so I nodded to say ok.
