She went to Ethan's room first thing in the morning. Pero inabot niya itong nakabihis na at naghahanda na para umalis.
"Good morning..." he said as he eyes himself on the mirror. He adjusted his gray slim-fit shirt and put on his navy blue hoodie. He ran his fingers through his hair and his eyes looked totally smexy in his new carbon eyeglasses.
Ghad... Bahagyang tinakpan ni Zea ang kanyang ilong. Halos masukol na kasi siya sa bango ng after shave ng binata. Ano bang kala ng isang to? Sa school ang tungo niya, hindi sa club.
"Good thing you're already here." wika ni Ethan habang ikinakabit ang isang maliit na hikaw sa taas na bahagi ng kanyang tenga.
It was a silver dot earring. It's so small you won't be able to see it unless you look at it closer.
Matapos ikabit ay kaagad niyang nilapitan si Zea.
He stood in front of her and looked at her beautiful face. But she froze when his fingers suddenly ran through her hair. He leaned closer. So close, she can almost die smelling his heavenly manly scent. Blood started to rush into her cheeks and her heart pounded hard into her ears.
Hindi naman niya talaga gusto si Ethan. Pero hindi naman niya maitatanggi na malakas talaga ang dating ng kumag na 'to.
Hinawi nito ang buhok niya at nabigla na lang siya nung may nag-click sa bandang tainga niya. Napatingin siya sa salamin at nakita ang maliit na hikaw na nakakabit roon.
It was a cute red dangling earring.
"Here's how we communicate," he whispered. He rotated the tip of the earring until a small light blinked for 3 seconds. "That thing is an HD microphone and a listening device at the same time. I can hear everything from that at maririnig mo rin ako diyan at the same time." Ethan explained carefully.
Zea smiled at the sight of it. "Looks nice."
"No required parameters, kahit gaano ka kalayo. Pero syempre hindi yan gagana kung nasa ibang bansa ka. Just make sure na naka-on lang siya but you don't have to use it everytime."
Ethan grabbed his phone. Napansin tuloy ni Zea ang college form at architecture review materials na nakasalansan sa table niya.
"Are you going to take the entrance exam today?"
"Yup," matipid na sagot nito.
Hindi napigilan ni Zea na matawa, kaya naman napatigil bigla si Ethan sa pagpeprepara.
"Kawawa naman mga babaeng makakasabay mo," kantyaw ni Zea.
He smiled at her and raised his eyebrow. "What's that supposed to mean?"
"Masyado ka kasing nakaka-distract. Baka bumagsak mga kasabay mo sa exam."
A huge grin crossed Ethan's face. "Wow! May epekto naman pala charms ko sayo. Halika nga dito, pa-kiss muna!" biro nito sabay hablot sa mukha ng dalaga.
"Bitiwan mo nga ako!" sigaw ni Zea saka pinaghahampas ang binata.
Natatawa siyang binitawan ni Ethan saka kinuha ang mga forms.
"Simula mamaya sa condo na ako uuwi. So you'll be on your own starting today." Ethan headed towards the door but took one last look at his partner. "And it's Errol, by the way."
She smiled at him as soon as he left the room. She can't deny that Ethan is overqualified for this mission. He is one of the best, worldwide speaking.
She remembered how Ethan swiftly held the knife and hurled it towards her chest. Mabilis siyang umiwas at umatras. She under estimated Ethan's reach, kaya inabot pa rin siya ng patalim nito. Napatingin siya kaagad sa kanyang dibdib at halos mapunit na ang kalahati ng kanyang suot.
