M: Love! Nasa airport ka na?

R: Malapit na, Love.

M: Gaano kalapit?

R: *chuckles* Excited? Miss na miss mo na ba ako?

M: Sobra. *pouts*

R: Gaano ka-miss? *smiles giddily*

M: From Manila to Oita.

R: Luh luh luh... Gaya-gaya ng sagot. *grins giddily*

M: Luh luh luh... Lalim ng dimple oh. Kinikilig... *giggles, pokes R's dimple on her phone screen* Ikaw ba, Love? Miss mo ako?

R: Hindi.

M: *pouts* Hindi?

R: Hindi kasi miss na miss na miss na miss na miiiiiiiiss kita, Love.

M: *giggles* Ang luma na pero nakakakilig pa din. Nakakainis.

R: *grins* I love you.

M: *looks at her phone screen and finds R staring at her* I love you more.

R: I love you most. *smiles*

M: Nakakainis. Most na. Wala na akong laban. *pouts*

R: *laughs* Ganoon talaga. Mahal na mahal kita. Di ako palalamang sa'yo.

M: *giggles* Ewan ko sa'yo. E di ikaw na.

R: Love, eto na. Nasa airport na kami.

M: Yey! Ingat sa biyahe ah. Pray bago mag-take off. Yung bagahe mo, ingatan mo. Pagdating mo sa Fukuoka, magbasa ka mabuti ng directions, may translations naman. Tapos tumawag ka agad para di ka maligaw.

R: Grabe si Mommy. Hindi naman ako maliligaw. *pouts*

M: Buti nang sigurado. Sa HongKong nga...

R: Uy! Past is past.

M: *grins* I'll see you later.

R: See you, Love. Ang tagaaaal pa. 3 hours on the plane tapos 2 hours land trip pa to Oita. Hapon pa tayo magkikita, pwede bang mag-teleport na lang?

M: Hindi pwede mag-teleport pero pwed maki-angkas kay Ironman. *laughs*

R: Sige. Mang-asar ka pa. Ito naman oh. Miss na miss lang naman kita eh.

M: Oh, wag ka na magtampo. 3 hours mo din akong di makakausap habang nasa flight ka.

R: Oo na. I love you. Baba na ako.

M: I love you. *kisses him through her phone screen* See you. Bye.

R: Bye, Love. *kisses his phone screen, ends call, gets out of the van and enters the airport*

August 28, 2:10pm, Manila:
August 28, 3:10pm, Fukuoka:

R: *reads the signs on the Arrival area of Fukuoka Airport, looks for someone to direct him to the train station since that the faster way to get to Oita, apparently he has to take a bus to go to Hakata station to ride the train to Oita* Saan naman kaya yung bus? *looks around and spots a woman standing with her back against him in a long kimono style jacket with white sneakers, a black newsboy hat and large sunglasses, squints his eyes and focused on the woman* Pamilyar. *walks towards her* Sumimasen**... Miss where can I find the bus to Hakata?

Woman: *in Japanese accent* No English. *giggles*

R: *eyes widen, grins as he instantly recognizes her voice and asthmatic laughter which confirms his suspicion earlier* Love?

Woman: *in a forced round voice* Love? No Love. *stifles laughter*

R: *takes a deep breath and braces himself to either receive a slap from a stranger or a kiss from his wife as he holds her shoulders and makes her face him* Aha! Sabi ko na nga ba asawa ko to eh. *laughs as he gathers M into his arms and hugs her tight*

M: * laughs* Bakit alam mo agad? Nag-disguise disguise pa ako oh.

R: Ano ka ba, Love? Sakong mo pa lang kilalang kilala ko na. *squeezes M tighter* Miss na miss kitaaaaaa.

M: *coughs* Halata nga, Love. Gigil eh. Di ako makahinga. *giggles* I miss you too. Hindi ko na mahintay yung two hours pa kaya tumakas na ako doon.

R: *pulls away from M and looks at her worriedly* Tumakas? Paano?

M: Basta after lunch, umalis na ako. Nakailang trips na rin naman ako dito sa Japan kaya alam ko na ang kalakaran sa train. *grins* Sinundo na kita baka maligaw ka pa.

R: Basta papunta sa'yo, di ako maliligaw. May homing device ka kaya sa akin. *grins and pokes her nose*

M: Let's go? If we leave now, eksaktong dinner time andun na tayo. Parang wala lang nangyari. *takes R's hand and pulls him towards the direction of the bus*

R: Sandali. Wala man lang ba akong kiss muna? *pouts*

M: Kiss ka diyan. Nasa airport po tayo. *chuckles and shakes her head*

R: *looks around* Wala namang nakatingin tsaka wala namang makakakilala sa atin dito.

M: Malay mo ba. May mga pinoy din dito noh.

R: *pulls M towards him and locks his arm around her waist* Oh eh ano ngayon? *raises an eyebrow, stares at M hawkishly*

M: Hoy! *hits his arm* Wag mo akong tinitignan nang ganyan. Marupok ako.

R: Come on, Mrs. Faulkerson. Just this once. Wag muna nating isipin ang ibang tao kahit sa isang kiss lang. *smiles, keeping his gaze glued on her eyes*

M: *sighs, smiles* How can I resist that? Tsaka how bad can an airport kiss photo get?

R: *smirks* Let's find out together. *closes the gap between them and kisses her lips* 💛🍃
