R&M on FaceTime:

R: Love, tulog ka na.

M: Hindi ako makatulog eh.

R: Miss mo ako?

M: Hindi rin.

R: Weh?

M: *giggles* Oo na. Ikaw ba?

R: Miss na miss na miss na miss kita uy!

M: *giggles* Kwentuhan mo na lang ako.

R: Okay. Tungkol sa?

M: Saan kayo niyan? *asks R as she lies on her side on her bed*

R: *cradles his phone on one hand as he sits on a couch in his hotel room* Dinner lang tapos akyat na din kami ulit dito ni Mama Ten. Bawi-bawi din ng tulog at pahinga.

M: They say Paris is prettiest at night. Bakit di ka maglakad-lakad sa labas?

R: Okay na ako sa view sa bintana ko. Wala ka naman dito para samahan akong maglakad. I know how you love long walks under the stars or the city lights. I feel like I'm stealing that moment from you. *sighs*

M: Luh luh luh... Ang orte-orte. Okay lang yun, Love. Enjoy ka lang diyan. Explore the best of the city. Have fun! GOOD. CLEAN. FUN. *squints her eyes at R*

R: Always, Love. Alam mo naman. Takot ko lang sa'yo. *grins* Sige. Baka sa last night ko dito, maglakad-lakad kami ni Mama Ten sa labas. *smiles*

M: Good boy. *smiles*

R: Can I be a good boy here and a bad boy when I get home to you? *smirks, wiggles his eyebrows*

M: *giggles* How bad? *smirks*

R: Halaaaah... *laughs* Lumalaban si misis.

M: Siyempre. Competitive ako.

R: *chuckles* Talaga yan ha? Sige. Pag-uwi ko, mag-contest tayo.

M: Ano namang contest?

R: Tounge wrestling. *grins*

M: *laughs loudly* Ang landi mo walang pinipiling oras at panahon talaga ano?

R: Para sa'yo lang naman. *smiles*

M: Sige nga. Landiin mo pa ako.

C: *yells from the background* Hoy! Anong landian yan?! Matulog ka na. Alas dos na oh. Utang na loob. Magpatulog ka, payat. *throws pillow at M* Hindi ka mabubuntis sa video call!

R: *snickers* Hala ka. Galit na si Coleen. Tulog ka na kasi.

M: Di nga ako makatulog. Wala ka dito. Wala akong kili-kiling sisiksikan. *pouts*

R: Aaaw ang baby ko... *pouts and touches her nose on his screen* Diyan ka kay Coleen sumiksik.

M: Sabagay magkasing-laki kayo ng braso. *giggles* pero iba yung amoy. Di pa rin. *sighs*

R: I know the feeling. Di din ako makatulog na wala ang amoy mo. Kaya meron ako nito. *grins, runs to his luggage and shows M the last sleepwear she wore before the day of his trip, a pair of skintight satin tank top and shorts*

M: *laughs* Oh my god! Dinala mo pala yan?

R: *giggles* Yes. Pinulot ko agad at pinasok sa bag ko, pagkaalis mo nung umaga. *sniffs the clothing and rubs it on his cheek* Wala kang ganito? Katabi ko to matulog eh. Sarap ng tulog ko. *grins*

M: Meron. Itong shirt mo suot ko kaso bagong laba ito eh. Walang amoy. *pouts*

R: Hay naku. Kawawa ka naman talaga, baby ko.

M: Talaga. *pouts* Sa susunod, iwan mo kili-kili mo dito para makatulog ako.

R: *laughs* Kili-kili ko lang talaga?

M: Oo. Pag ibang parte kasi nagigising ako.

R: Hoy! *grins widely*

M: *yawns* Pagod na ako pero di ako makatulog. Miss ata kita.

R: Miss ata?

M: Sige na nga. Miss na nga kita. *rolls eyes*

R: Parang napilitan pa ah. *chuckles*

M: Tse!

R: Ang sungit mo pag puyat, Love. Sleep ka na. May pa-party pa kay Matti bukas. Mamaya na pala.

M: I'll try.

R: Anong I'll try? Tulog na. Sige na. Pikit ka na diyan. Kakantahan na lang kita.

M: Sige. *smiles*

R:Anong kanta?

M: Kahit ano. Yung bago naman. Wag God Gave Me You or Yellow.

R: *laughs* Gasgas na ba?

M: Medyo lang. *giggles*

R: Okay. Sige. Close your eyes, baby girl.

M: *smiles sweetly* Goodnight, Dad. I love you. *kisses her phone and closes her eyes*

R: Goodnight, my love. I love you more and more and more. *traces the side of her face on his phone and kisses her nose, starts singing*

🎶 It's just another night
And I'm staring at the moon
I saw a shooting star
And thought of you
I sang a lullaby
By the waterside and knew
If you were here,
I'd sing to you
You're on the other side
As the skyline splits in two
I'm miles away from seeing you
I can see the stars🎶

R: *smiles as he watches M sleep a few minutes after he has stopped singing, kisses his phone screen* Malapit na. Hindi na damit lang ang aamuyin ko. Mayayakap na kita ulit. Tulog lang, asawa ko. Tulog lang muna. *kisses her again before ending the call* 💛🍃
