Precious’s POV

            “Hey Chut! Josh is here!” my sister yelled through my door. I groaned and looked at my clock sitting on my nightstand. 8:30am?! Seriously Josh?! “CHUUUUUTTT!!!” she called again knocking continuously on my door. “Okay! Okay! I’m coming down,” I answered scratching my hair.

            I stood up and fixed my hair in a messy bun. I went to my bathroom and brushed my teeth before going downstairs. “Finally!” Ysabel said when she noticed me. I glared at my sister signaling her to go to her room.

            “Hey. Good morning babe,” Josh said giving me a hug. “Good morning,” I answered smiling at my boyfriend. “What are you doing here so early?” I asked yawning. I still need to sleep. I still want to sleep.

            “I have to tell you something,” he said holding my hand. “Hit me,” I said silently. “I’m going away for a while,” he answered. I jolted up when I heard him. “Going away?!” I asked looking at him.

            “It’s an on the job training for a playwright. And it’ll be on Paris,” he answered sadly. I removed my hand from his and crossed my arms. “Don’t get mad,” he said giving me a hug. “How long will you be gone?” I asked.

            “I’m not sure. That’s why I asked Riker to take care of you while I’m gone,” he said like it’s no big deal. “What?!” I yelled angrily at him. “I’m not a kid to be watch on,” I added. I’m feeling extra grumpy cause he woke me up so early just to give me a bad news and now this!

            “It’s not like that,” he defended smiling. “I can’t message you every day because of the busy schedule we’ll be having. I just want to make sure that you’ll be safe and Riker is the best one I’ve got,” he added. I just sighed on the thought of spending time with Riker while Josh is gone.

            “Ok. But don’t forget to message me when you have the time there,” I said yawning. “Of course!” he answered. “When will you be leaving?” I asked one last time.

            “The day after tomorrow,” he answered with a hint of sadness on his voice. “I’ll miss you,” he added and leaned on closer. He was about to kiss me when someone knocked on our door. “I’ll miss you too,” I said and kissed his cheek before getting up to see who it was.

            “Who is it?” I asked walking towards the door. “It’s Riker,” he answered. My heart skipped a beat. Why was he here? I opened the door and saw him with half brushed morning hair. He was wearing a gray shirt, jeans and a pair of blue Vans. He was also in his glasses and blue beanie.

            “Can I come in?” he asked. I was pulled out of my thoughts staring at him. “Yeah, please,” I answered pulling his arm. “Hey man!” Josh greeted and gave Riker a bro hug. I just stood there watching both of them.

            “What are you doing here?” Josh asked. “Oh…Uhm…” Riker said looking for words to say. “I just want to see if Precious can help me on a song I’ve been writing,” he added.

            “Why didn’t you ask me?” Josh asked again getting suspicious. “There’s no harm on trying something new. And besides, Rocky suggest it,” Riker answered. There was an annoying awkward silence after that until Ysabel went out of her room.

            “Hey Chut! What do you want for breakfast?” she asked. “Oh, hi Riker,” she waved when she saw him sitting on the living room with us. Riker waved and smiled at her for an answer.

            “Pancakes or oatmeal,” I answered and signaled her to go to the kitchen. She rolled her eyes on me and went to prepare our breakfast. “So…about the song,” I said turning to Riker. “The lyrics are on my car,” he answered.

            Josh phone beeped after that and stood up. “Oh crap! I need to go!” he said stuffing his phone back to his pants. “Why? What’s wrong?” I asked holding his arm.

            “The talent scout is meeting us on the theatre in less than 10 minutes,” he answered and leaned down giving me a quick kiss. He smiled at me and I returned it. I can see Riker on the corner of my right eye with his fist flexing.

            “Take care of her bro,” he said tapping Riker on the shoulder. “Ysabel! I’ll go,” he yelled before opening the door. “I love you!” he added giving me a flying kiss before he shuts the door. I heard his car starts which means he’s off.

            An awkward silence went through the house again. “Did you have breakfast already?” I asked breaking the silence between me and Riker. He smiled at me and I take that as a Yes. Ysabel walked to the living room giving me a plate of oatmeal with strawberries and blueberries on it. Yum!

            “Thank me later,” she said running towards her room before shutting it. I shook my head and grabbed a spoonful. “I’ll go get the lyrics,” Riker said standing up. “And I’ll get the guitar. Or do you prefer piano?” I asked.

            “Guitar,” he smiled and went outside. I put down my plate on the coffee table and grabbed my guitar on my room. When I got back, he was already there tapping the papers on his pen. “Can I see?” I asked reaching for it.

            “Nope. Finish your oatmeal first,” he laughed avoiding my hands. I stuck my tongue out and grabbed my oatmeal on the coffee table while he played my guitar and hum at the same time. I was mesmerized by the way he hums.

            He stopped and looked at me smiling. “What?” I asked with the spoon on my mouth. “Just like the old times,” he smiled and went back on playing. I had a quick flashback and smiled at the thought. Hope this will be just like old times.
