Adeline's POV

"BRIAN PARK!! WHY IS EVERYTHING SO COMPLICATED BETWEEN US?!" I yelled. No one's gonna get bothered by my shout anyway.

"I LOVE YOU BRIAN PARK!!!" Sigaw ko uli.

"Oy miss!! 'Wag ka ng sumigaw diyan!! Takbo!"

Bigla na lang akong napadilat pagkatapos nu'n. What the? That weird dream again?And why is the weird Dylan involved? And who the hell is Brian Park?

My thoughts were stopped by a knock on my door. "Adeline? Are youup?" It was Timothy on the other side of the door.

"Yeah. I'm up," sagot ko na langbago tumayo para mag-ayos ng sarili. Sumagot lang ng simpleng 'okay' si Timothy at sigurado akong bumaba na siya pagkatapos nu'n.

Bumalik sa isip ko 'yung napanaginipan ko. Halos mag-iisang buwan ko nangnapapanaginipan 'yun simula nang bumalik si Tim dito pero iba't ibang scenario. May isang beses na namukhaan ko si Timothy sa panaginip ko.Usually kasi blurred 'yung mukha nila but it was a miracle that I recognized his face. And now, I saw the weird Dylan's face.

WasI involved with them before?

I shook my head to get those strange thoughts off my head. I just did my morning rituals then get downstairs for breakfast. Naabutan ko siTimothy na nagluluto sa kusina. Lumapit ako sa kanya at tinabihansiya.

"Good morning," bati niya habang ibinubuhos niya sa kawali 'yung pancake batter na may seryosong mukha.

I pinched his cheeks and made him look at me. "Good morning to you too, Mr. Serious Face. Ano na naman ang nangyari at hindi nanaman maipinta 'yang mukha mo?" pabirong tanong ko.

"'Yung pancake kasi kanina pa nasusunog. Ilan pa lang 'yung nagagawa ko na pwedeng kainin," he whined like a kid learning how to cook a simple pancake. Natawa na lang ako sa sinabi niya.

"Kasi po, Mr. Timothy Dream, mahina lang ang apoy kapag nagluluto ng pancake," hininaan ko 'yung apoy ng kalan.

"Ayan, hindi na siya masusunog," sabi ko. I secretly dipped two of my fingers on the mixture then immediately wipe it vertically on his forehead down to his nose.

"Hey!" I just laughed at how ridiculous he looked.

"Hey Tim, I'll be going out now," paalam ko matapos kong kunin ang bag ko. Tumayo naman siya mula sa sofa at lumapit sa'kin.

"Are you sure you don't want me to give you a ride to Tita?"paninigurado pa niya. I just shook my head and gave him a reassuring smile.

"I'll be fine," sagot ko. Tumango naman siya at sumagot ng 'okay'. Umalis na ako pagkatapos ko siyang makumbinsi. Pagkalabas ko ay agad din akong nakahanap ngtaxi.

Its been almost a month passed when I told Timothy that I'll try to love him back. I can say that I feel happy and protected whenever he's around but I still can't feel the same emotion I had for Dylan. It's really hard to let go of something you really love but you have to.

Well, my love for Timothy won't grow in just a short span of one month and besides, I'm still only in the beginning.

Ilang minuto lang ay nakarating na ako sa meeting place namin nina Mom and Dad. Inabot ko na 'yung bayad ko at bumaba ng taxi. Pumasok na ako sa restaurant na sinabi ni Dad. An employee ushered me to our reserved table near the glass wall of the restaurant.
