In Screaming Color

Chapter 12

Bea's POV

"Hm, that smells good."

I stood behind her as I rub the sleepiness off my eyes. She chuckles and took a quick look at me.

"Bacon doesn't disappoint."

"Hm, What I meant is that you smell good, Jho."

A grin flashed on my face as I sniff her freshly washed hair. She playfully pushed me away with her shoulder as she transferrs the oh crispy bacon on the plate.

"Tigilan mo ko, Beatriz. May kasalanan ka pa kagabi."

"Ha? I thought okay na tayo when you kissed me goodnight."

I teased as I took my seat across her as she keeps herself busy at putting some rice on my plate. Serving me like a queen.

"Pwede ba. Don't even tease me. Eggs?"

"Yes please." I nodded. "Hay, I'm starting to love weekends. They don't seem to be as boring as they used to be."

"Bakit? Don't you go out on weekends?"

She asks as she settled on her seat after giving me three bacons.

"Nope."

I said popping the P as I say the word. Happily indulging myself with the best breakfast meals I have been having for the past few days.

"I usually finish the paperwork but since I have been doing overtimes, weekends are left empty."

"Isn't that thanks to me?" I nodded in response. "Well, 'empty' is an odd choice of word to describe something you love now."

"Not on this one, Jho. Empty weekends means more time to spend with you. Yie!"

She rolled her eyes as I laugh. I'm such in a good mood for today!

"Alam mo, ang harot harot mo ngayon. This isn't because of last night, right? Gosh Bea. Don't make it such a big deal."

"Don't worry, I'm not trying to bite on some meat of yours." I winked. "Just teasing you, Jho. Anyway, have plans for today?"

"Maliban sa mag grocery at gawin ang pasta recipe mo, wala na. Ikaw?"

"Wala din. After ba neto, grocery na tayo? Yun nalang din lunch natin."

"Sige."

Third Person's POV

The two was left in silence at breakfast. The comfortable silence you usually can't have with everybody. It is found at two people who has bonded well enough to create a special relationship. A relationship Bea and Jho have upon spending time together for just a month.

"Will we need Parmesan, Bei?"

"Yes please. Yung malaki na."

"Mahilig ka sa cheese no?"

"I was born to love cheese."

Bea smiled as she waited for Jho to place the Parmesan into the cart. The grocery store just opened so there were only just few people inside. The two are half way on their list and are just playfully picking ingredients.

"You go on to adventures, Bei? Alam mo na, before you were this person behind your office door. What kind of person were you?"

"Raliyista." Bea chuckled. "Joke lang, I travel din. Go on long late night drives. Why?"

"Hay. How I wish naabutan ko ang Bea na ganon.."

"What's that suppose to mean?"

Bea raised her eyebrow as she place a bag of Lays on their cart.
