Boy Next Door (LeAga)

"Change in your last name .."

Aga pulled his handkerchief out of his pocket and wiped those tears on Lea's face away.

"I love you. Please don't forget that."

Lea smiled at him and with tears continuously flowing, she answered. "My mind may have forgotten that before but not now, not anymore. And this is I vow to you, babes, my heart never forgot and just wouldn't. It couldn't forget to love you all along."

Lea is back from her one-week official leave. It's okay though. She have settled everything for the magazine before leaving. It's not really a problem and besides, her associate is here to monitor everything.

As soon as she entered their building, everybody seemed to be in their good mood and are beaming at her.

"Good morning, Mis -- Ma'am Lea!" The receptionist greeted her with a little bit of extra energy. Her forehead creased a bit but she greeted back. "Good morning! Keep up the good mood!"

She walked towards the elevator smiling at everyone. They all seem to be giddy. She wonders why.

"Kumusta Ms. Salonga? Can I call you Mrs. Muhlach now? Was that a proposal? It was nice! Nakakakilig!"

Jen greeted her, kilig and extra energy mixed.

What was she talking about? She can't fathom what. "Good morning Jen! Anong 'that'? What do you mean?"

"The one at the soccer arena! Yieh! Lei! Hihi!" She's funny. Kinikilig talaga.

"Ah. The one at the -- WHAT!?" Lea shouted wide eyed -- shocked.

Jen laughed at her reaction. "You seemed surprised."

"That was shown on TV?" She asked still with that high tone. Jen nodded. "On live national -- er, international television."

Shit. Damn, Aga! You did it again. Bakit kailangan live pa? Arg.

"You know what, Lea? That is the sweetest thing a guy can do for his girl. Tell the whole world that he is deeply in love with her. Literally." She's right. That was sweet.

A sweet, innocent smile is now on her face.

"Wag ka na magpigil ng kilig dyan. I'll go ahead before your Mr. Muhlach catches me here."

My Mr. Muhlach.

Lea giggled as that memory from their out of the country vacation flashed in her mind.

Flashback

"Ano bang ginagawa natin dito? Soccer isn't your interest, is it?" Lea asked him irritated as they sat at the bench available near them.

"We'll just try something new. Let's always be open for changes." Like the change in your last name soon. He thought.

Lea is frowning all the time as she begins to get bored. Ang tagal mag-umpisa. Aga on the other hand, is smiling from ear to ear and she wonders why.

Aga rested his arm on her back and hand on her stomach which caused her to look, no, deathly glare at him. (A/n: as in nakapulupot talaga yung braso kaya yung kamay nasa tiyan na ni Ms. Lei. XD)

"What? I'm just protecting what is mine." Aga looked at her, a smile plastered on his face.

She rolled her eyes on him and looked straight to the arena.
