Somebody Waiting

Sampu

Raine laughed upon sending her last message to Richard.

'You. Voi makakalimutin..' She said while mixing the ingredients on the bowl. She smirked and remembers the last sequence of their goodbye last week when Richard came for dinner.

Last week...

'Uy yung utang kong lunch sa friday...' Paalala ng binata habang naglalakad nang marahan patalikod papasok sa elevator.

'Unli ka ba?' Asar na singhal ng dalaga habang kunwari ay nakasimangot.

Richard pressed the hold button to prevent the elevator doors to close, smiled warmly to the person on the other side of the floor and mentally captures the very moment.

Ang lapit-lapit mo pero malayo...but I'll try to hold on for as long as I can just to gaze on you---even from afar. Richard thought to himself.

Sigh.

Raine smiled back and both waved goodbye.

'I had a great night. Salamat sa sinigang.' Richard mumbled beneath his breath as the elevator doors hide the reason of his smile.

Two hours after, while he was laying on the bed his phone beeped.

'Today is thursday tukmol.' Raine said while putting the final touches on her cake. Today, she will visit Richard wherever he may be right now.

'Kailangan kong bumawi sa taba na yun.' She said to the air. Hindi nya alam pero the thought of seeing mallows today gave her a permanent grin throughout the day.

Matutuwa dito ang burjer mo…

In order for her plan to succeed, she needs to know where he is now without giving him a clue of her surprise visit.
