After she finished taking a shower, she found him sitting on a couch on the living room.
"Tapos ka na pala, sorry ang tagal ko. Alam mo naman", she said drying her hair with a towel.
He gulped at her after-shower-look.
Kalmahan mo Richard, he thought to himself.
"Nainip ka ba? Sorry sana binuksan mo na lang yung TV, or kahit umalis ka na lang"
"Pinapaalis mo na ako?"
"Baka lang kasi nababagot ka na dito"
"So, hindi mo ako pinapaalis?"
"Ang kulit mo!"
"Hindi ah", he said, then went beside her.
"Ok lang?", he was asking a permission if it's okay for to pushed the wheelchair for her to the living room.
She just looked at him then nodded. He pushed the wheelchair then he helped her to sit on the couch.
"Gusto mo manood ng TV?", she asked.
"Wag na, ok lang kung kwentuhan mo na lang ako?"
"Wala kong i-ke-kwento, ikaw na lang"
Okay, he got it, she's not ready to talk about it yet.
"Ang ganda ng boses mo 'no?"
"Hala? Sorry... Napalakas ba?"
He smiled. While washing the dishes he heard her sang again the same song.
"Medyo.. Pero ok lang maganda naman"
"Sa banyo lang maganda", she answered chuckling.
"So you mean, while taking a bath you sing?"
"Oo", she admitted shyly.
"Do you take a bath every 5 in the morning?"
"Oo, morning routine ko 'yo— wait? How did you know? Binobosohan mo ba ako?", she said covering her clothed-chest defensively.
"Hoooy.... Hindi ahh.. Ano, nagising kasi ako minsan nung kumakanta ka"
"Hala, sorry, nakakaistorbo na pala ako sa'yo"
"Hindi.. Ang totoo niyan, gumigising talaga ako ng maaga para marinig kang kumanta", he admitted looking away.
"Hala, nakakahiya"
"Hindi nga, ang ganda kaya"
"Effects lang 'yon ng C.R"
"Hindi.. Maganda naman talaga, kahit speaking voice mo, ang ganda... Ang lambing"
She blushed.
Juskopo! Angkyooot!
"On my first day, narinig kitang kumakanta, I was very curious at that time kung kanino galing 'yong boses. Nung una, akala ko out of curiosity lang then, di nagtagal, wala na... Hinahanap hanap ko na boses mo. Am I creeping you out? Mukha na ba akong stalker?", he joked.
"Hindi naman.. Mas natatakot ako sa mga jokes mo!", she answered laughing.
He was bewitched for a moment, the sound of her laughter, how her eyes lit up, complements her over all glow. She is so beautiful.
Very beautiful.
"Sino ba nag-suggest sa'yo ng joke na yan?"
"Si ano.. Si—"
He didn't finish what he had to say when her door opened revealing Mr.Jani.
"Kuya", she said.
His head knotted on what he just heard.
"Kuya?"
