I love you and I will love you until my dying breath. and if there's life after death, I'll love you until then." Joshua serenely says as he slowly caress my cheeks, the line just right at my jaw, before he traces the linings of my lips.

Hindi ko alam ang nangyayari. Why the hell is Joshua acting like this? Isn't he scared Sofia might see us? Something's wrong, definitely wrong.

I was slowly trying to push him away from me. I was tring really hard to get away from his touch, to get away from the close proximity of our bodies but I am being restrained by a stubborn Joshua.

He was inching his face closer to mine. I am slowly getting intoxicated with his breath that smells like mint. Gradually, I am losing control over my self-will. I am getting trapped under Joshua's spell.

Iilang milimetro na lang ang natitira bago mag-dikit ang aming labi, Tuluyan na akong napapikit at nagpaubaya sa mga nangyayari sa oras na ito. Why the hell is this happening, I do not know.

And as our lips almost touched each other's, as we intoxicate each other with our breaths, I was awakened from that hell of a nightmare.

I sighed. Buti at panaginip lang pala.Why the eff do I dream things like that ba? Hindi na nga maganda ang pakiramdam ko tapos ganun pa mapapanaginipan mo? Nice.

As I was recalling my nightmare, someone knocked on the door of my room. I was thinking it was just one of the house helps kaya I let her in. Pagdadalhan lang naman niya ako ng gamot at makakain.

But then, my assumptions went wrong. Well, yeah, the person who knocked was balancing a tray of food in one hand as he enters my room. the thing here is, he's not one of our helps.

It's no other than the Hero Angelo Corpuz.


"So, lunch in bed is served by the most handsome hero for his most beloved babe." He smirks at me like a boss right after he placed the tray in the bedside table.

Kahit na sobrang hina ng pakiramdam ko ngayon, tumayo ako mula sa pagkakahiga at sumandal sa header ng aking kama. Of course, Hero assisted me. I tried conversing with him, he really just need to bear with the hoarseness and the constant croaking of my voice. "What are you doing here? I thought you were in Cebu?"

"Nice. How did you know my schedule, babe?" the accusation in his teasing his so imminent at halata pa yun sa mapanloko niyang mga tingin. He's so full of it. "Yeah, I was actually in Cebu pero natapos ko kaagad yung mga gawain ko dun kaya I flew back immediately."

Okay, I'll let it pass. I am so not feeling well today. Ang bigat ng pakiramdam ko plus my throat hurts like hell. I thought it was just reality and the people in this world had the ability to hurt me. I never thought na pati pala lalamunan ko eh sasaktan ako. Sigh. Life is indeed all about pain and aches.

Kinuha naman ni Hero yung bowl ng porridge sa tray at sinimulang subuan ako. Honestly, what he was doing was making me awkward. I don't know, aybe I'm not accustomed to receiving service and treatments like this. I mean, at this age, including this, I have been sick thrice. Yep, I don't know what Mom made me eat or drink but I am amazed at how strong my immune system is.

As expected, the porridge was served hot. What I did not expect is that it tastes so good. For a porridge which usually tastes bland, this is really good. so good, I asked Hero kung saan niya ba binili yung porridge. With a porridge this good, once I get well, I will make sure that the shop kung saan nabibili yung porridge na yan will be part of the wide array of shops and restaurants under my management.
