Vanessa's POV

"HOW are you, Vanessa?"

He asked while smiling "Still alive, uncle." I rolled my eyes "Why did you come here anyways? When are you go flying back to—"

"Are you pushing me away, Vanessa Kacey?" His forehead knotted

'Isn't obvious, uncle?'

"It's not that." I sat on the couch in front of him "I just want to ask," I shrugged my shoulders "So, when?"

"Not sure about the date, Vanessa." He answered "Pero dito muna 'ko."

I forced to smile "Why don't you stay at my unit? Or you can sleep—"

"Ayaw mo 'bang nandito ako, Vanessa?" He pouts

'Eww.'

He's like Eric's father, they both love to act cute but it's kinda' disgusting.

"Yes—I mean you can stay here, yes that's right." I excused

I'll sleep at my unit tonight then, tsk.

Without waiting for his answer I turned my back and say "I'll just find something to eat," I informed

"Vanessa?" I get my phone from the center table. My uncle might look at it, tss.

"Hmm?"

"Where's your best friend?" I was stunned, did he just ask where Eric is?

"I haven't seen him. Gusto 'ko ulit siyang makita makalipas ang ilang taon." I can see how happy he is right now

"Y-yeah. He wants to see you too either." I looked away "But h-he's kinda' busy."

"Busy? Kahit sabihin mo 'pang gusto ko siyang makita?" He genuinely smiled

I forced to smile "I don't know uncle because,"

'He left me,'

"—because he really has a tight schedule."

His smile disappeared "How I miss your friend, Vanessa." He sighed "Maybe I'll just visit him somewhere. Right, Vanessa?"

I don't know where he is, "O-of course, that would be great."

I REST MY body on the bed and hugged my pillow beside me. I am currently laying here on the bed of my condo unit.

At first, my uncle didn't allow me to sleep here but since he slept early I sneek out and yeah. I came here.

My body is so damn tired and that's the reason why I couldn't open a ramen for myself.

I'm hungry but the hungriness I feel is fading away due to the tiredness I'm currently experiencing

My eyes are about to close but I heard a noise coming from the door of my unit. I was about to get up but fuck—it seems that my legs and even my arm are injured

'This is Eric's fault!'

Suddenly, I heard the door locked. I get the gun from my cabinet and when the door of my room open I aim my gun on the person but I couldn't help not to curse many times when I saw who that was

"Shit, you startled me!"

I threw my gun to his chest but he catched it "Tsk!" I irritatingly covered myself using the comforter "What the hell are you doing at this hour?"

Wow. Did he just ignore me? Like—what the hell?

"Hey!" I threw one of my pillow that caught his attention "Why don't you answer my question and will you stop—"

"You 'kay?" He sat on the bed and put something on the side table "You must be hungry,"

"W-what?"

'How did this hoodie guy know?!'

He chuckled "If you're mad at someone and that someone isn't pestering you," he smiled "You must be hungry."

I shut my mouth up, well that's true anyway. Why would I deny it? "What are y-you doing here?"

"I'm mad," he answered "—because you didn't choose me,"

"C-choose?" From what "And wait, how did you open my door? This is trespassing!"

He laughed "And so you are,"

"—you came inside my heart without my permission."

My jaw dropped and all of a sudden I burst out laughing "Pfft! What a corny joke you have, hoodie guy."

I even hit his left arm "Pffft!"

"Tss." He hissed and crossed his arms

'So cute.'

What?! What did I say? No—no! Erase that! Argh!

"Stop laughing," he ordered, the heck? How dare he give orders to the Queen? "Stop or I'll seal your kissable lips with mine."

What the hell?

"Tatahimik din pala, tsk." He tsked "I came here because I have a key." He waved a key that's exactly looks like mine!

"H-how . . ."

"Shut your mouth or I'll kiss you." I rolled my eyes and I irritatingly curse him

"And yes, you choose someone." He glared at me "Over me."

"Over you?" I asked "When?"

"When you ran away earlier!" He shouted

"Why are you mad?!" I shouted also while glaring back at him

Why would I be scared?

"I am mad because you didn't choose me!" Wow, why does he keep shouting at me?!

"Will you stop shouting?!"

"No, I won't! I am mad and no one can't stop me from shouting!"

"Shut up! You're wrecking my fuckin' ear drums!"

"Don't curse!"

"The hell you care! Shut up!"

"No, you should! You were the one who made me like this!"

"Don't blame me, jerk!"

"Jerk? Are you talking about your Michael Adler?!"

"What?!"

"Yes, you are! I saw the both of you talking!"

"And so? Why do you care?!"

"I care because it hurts when you're talking to that moron!"
