Can't Help Falling In Love With You (ON HOLD)

CHFILWY: Four

"Good Morning, Pot!" Lea shouted cheerfully as she entered the kitchen.

He beamed at her then took his apron off. "Good Morning!" He pulled her and gave her a bear hug.

She giggled then pulled off the hug to see what he cooked. Upon seeing fried bacon, she squealed and pinched his cheeks. "Ohmy! You don't know how much I love bacon. Gosh!"

"I know you do but that's not for you." He pulled a chair for her and gave her a cup of coffee.

He sat beside her and put fried rice on her plate.

She was about to pick bacon but Aga tapped her hand. She pouted. "Penge, Aga. Please. Please, Pot." She pleaded and clasped her hands together.

He hissed and shook his head. "That's not gonna work anymore, Lei." He smirked and started eating bacon. "Hotdog at fried chicken lang sayo, okay?"

She pursed her lips and poked his waist. "Aga...pahingi."

"No."

"Please...Ariel naman eh...kahit limang strips lang..."

He shook his head again. "These are mine, Maria." He stuck his tongue out and continued eating.

"Edi sayo na." She rolled her eyes and started munching on her fried chicken. "Just asking for a few strips lang...ang damot."

"Oh eto na nga. Bibigyan na kita. Hindi naman kita matitiis." He squished her cheeks and poked her nose. "Ilan gusto mo, baby girl?"

She crinkled her nose. "No na. Sayo na lahat yan."

"Babes...sa iyo nga 'to. All of this."

"Che! 'Babes' your face!"

He chuckled and put all the bacon on her plate. "Eto naman. Binibiro ka lang eh. Niluto ko nga to para sayo, Pot."

"Lagi mo na lang ako binibiro." She frowned.

"Open your mouth na...heto na bacon mo." He brought it near her mouth.

She looked at him. "Sa'kin na ba talaga 'to, Pot?"

He nodded and chuckled. "Oo nga. Sayo nga, Pot." He wiped the side of her lips as soon as she took it. "Sorry ah. Cute mo lang kasi pag napipikon."

She slapped his arm. "Ayan ka na naman eh! Where's Jassy nga pala?"

"Garden, Lei. Running around."

"With Brando?"

"Yep. Ano oras pasok mo?" He asked.

"9 pa. Ikaw ano ba oras pasok mo?"

"10 pa eh. Hatid na lang kita sa office mo." He suggested.

She smiled. "Okay lang ba? Coding din ako ngayon eh."

"Sure! No problem. Ikaw pa." He winked at her. "Malakas ka sa'kin Pot eh."

She laughed. "Ayan ka na naman!" She glanced at him. "But in all seriousness, thank you."

"Lei naman...anything para sayo." He smiled.

"No...I know I've been staying here for a week but I still want to say thank you to you for the preparation, for welcoming me and Jassy, for always saying na 'feel at home', and for keeping things light, bubbly and not awkward." She said and smiled. She reached for his hand. "Thank you."
