~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's almost morning and we're escaping to whatever country this trip leads to.

"We better hurry if we don't want ourselves to be found captured." I said.

"Yeah, I know." He smiled.

How come I still can't get enough of his smile?

No matter how much I got hurt because of him..

Why?

All guys are the same!

They are bad people!

They are players.

They break girls' hearts..

How come I still trust this one?

The fact that he made up with Annie and leaving me broken hearted is just cruel.

How come I still have the urge to be with him?

To hold him.. to be by his side.

I don't even know where we are going but I still feel secure.

I checked my watch and it's 3 in the morning.

John drove us to the airport.

The airport is already packed and yet it's still early.

"So where are we going?" I asked, quite curious myself.

"Rome. We'll be staying for three days and two nights." He replied.

My jaw dropped. How can he afford tickets to Rome?

"Wait.. How come.." I wanted to ask but he interrupted me by saying,

"I used the money you bought me with."

"But.. Annie's present?" I asked.

He glared at me as if I'm missing the point.

Then I remembered, they broke up before their anniversary and their anniversary is over.

That's why he didn't buy something.

I'm really excited in this trip.

I don't know why I should be but I am.

I just feel like it is going to be fun.

Sadly, three days seems too short.

"What about my stuff?" I asked.

"I already packed some of your stuff. It's now on the conveyer belt so you don't need to worry about anything. We just need to pass the immigration. I brought your passports too." He replied.

I stand there pretty shocked and said,

"How did you-"

He smiled at me.

I hate it when he does that and responded proudly,

"I'm a genius."

We went to the counter and showed our passports and boarding passes.

We went inside to browse through the shops and went in our respective boarding gates.

Rome, huh.

What are two people who are not in love with each other doing in this country?

We're not even a couple yet we are vacationing in this place.

Well, this is one of the things in my list but I didn't say it has to be Rome.
