CHAPTER 1: Saturdays
Saturday. Everyone knows how much I love Saturdays. You get this 'No-Alarm-Day' feeling. You can decide as how you can spend your day. And I know how to spend mine. How? It's more probably - with whom. With Belle, my girl. As much as her suggests, Yep, she's lovely, she's cool and never been out of energy. I love the way she talks, like every word she says left you hanging unto clouds. I love the way she says my name - Glenn, like it came directly to her heart and just smack me with a kiss that leaves me catching my breath literally. I love the way she stands, the way she sits, the way she eats, just everything. I guess, that's the cause of being in love, being poisoned with everything she does.
We've been together like, eight months now, and we never missed out any Saturday without seeing each other. Some call it dates, hangouts, but we call it appointment. Appointment because it's our obligation, and we're compel to come. It's like 'Saturdays is just for you and me so Fuck the world'.

*buzz* *buzz* *6 am*
I woke up. Checked my phone. It felt eerie. Every friday night, I have this 'Tomorrow-Is-Saturday-My-Appointment-Is-At-12-I-Will-Never-Set-The-Alarm' thought on my mind which reminds me, not to set the alarm. Still, I set it. The weirdness kept me awake until I have to decided to get up at 8:30am. Everything's fine, everything's as usual, I guess, but the taught of the alarm disturbs me. I called Belle.
"Hi Glenn! Good morning!", she said.
"Yeah. Good morning.. Ahm 12?", I mumbled. I know she noticed the disturbance on my voice that's why she asked if everything's fine. I said nothing. I didn't tell her about the alarm because, I'm kind of just over-thought about it.
"All right then. See you! I love you.", she said, with the sweetest voice I used to love.
"I love you too.", I replied.
After our conversation, the engrossment of the alarm on my mind vanished instantly and now replaced by the excitement of seeing Belle. I get ready.
I arrived fifteen minutes earlier. Dressed in with my newest blue polo shirt, bathe with perfume which I know she loves. Then after awhile, I saw her walking straight to me wearing her above-the-knee pink dress and flats. I love her in her flats. I love the way she's smaller than me because I love tapping her head. I just adore her reactions every time I does it. Then suddenly, I imagined the reverie of her walking straight towards me, on an aisle, on our wedding, which deposited a smile on my face.
She's just five feet away from me, but every inch that she get closer to me, it was like a lifetime in my mind. I felt her lips on mine. I felt her warm body close to mine. The three-second kiss stopped my world for about an eternity.
"Missed me?", she asked. Bringing my world back.
"No.. but..."
"I miss you too", she said upon interrupting my response. I pulled her towards me and hugged her. She responded. Hugging me back tighter. Tighter than usual. Tighter than it should be.
"Come!" with a big voice, she said, "I'll be in-charge." She grabbed my hand and pulled me. I know where she's taking me. I just grinned.
