Eh Yung Hindi Naman Tayo? DATI (COMPLETED)

EYHNTK- Mega Man

January 24, 2018:

I got in the van after my work at the baranggay, looking forward to the rest of the day since I didn't have anymore commitments until tomorrow's Platinum Karaoke event.

I planned to just stay at the condo, pig out on some ramen and nori, have a long relaxing bubble bath while listening to some soothing music and surrounded by vanilla scented candles and then sleep and sleep and sleep. I am jet-lagged and have been feeling under the weather since yesterday.

"Ma'am Maine, may pinapabigay po si Sir."

I looked at the white envelope that my driver handed me and smiled. "Thank you po."

He nodded and murmured his welcome then started the engine to drive me home.

I opened the envelope and saw a note and keycard to a hotel room.

Surprise! Enjoy your day.
I'll see you later. I love you.

"Kaloka. Ano na namang plano mo, Faulkerson?" I chuckled and closed the envelope then noticed that the van was already going to the hotel's direction.

"No knot left untied I see." I smiled. You, Richard Faulkerson Jr., are something else.

I went straight to the room with its number on the card then opened the door.

"Wow." I gasped when I saw what you had done with a bay view suite.

It was decorated with red roses arranged in crystal vases, petals scattered all over the carpet and vanilla-scented candles everywhere.

I followed the path of rose petals to the couch and saw the TV in front of it set up with the PS1 you brought to me the other day which I haven't got to play yet. The trail continued to the bathroom which was also full of the same roses and scented candles. It looked like the bath has been prepared for me too and when I walked closer to it... "Hmmm... Geranium, Lavender and Rose... How did he know that too?"

Just as I was contemplating what music to play in my bath, the doorbell rang. I went to answer and found room service at the door who rolled in a tray of a giant bowl of ramen, bags of nori snacks and iced latte.

After thanking the server who refused to take the tip I offered because he said you took care of that already, I found myself in front of the table of food and thinking. You got all the food I wanted without me telling you and I didn't even know I wanted that latte until it was rolled in on that tray.

"Paanong..." I gasped. "My boyfriend is a mind reader." I laughed and picked up the chopsticks to start eating.

It was then that my phone rang. I put my phone down to lean against an empty glass and answered your FaceTime call.

"Hello, Santa?" I giggled and dipped the chopsticks into the bowl as I licked my lips and my eyes widened in anticipation of the hot savory taste noodles in my mouth.

"Hi, baby girl. I'm guessing happy ka sa surprise?" You chuckled as you watched me take my best bite. "Sarap?"

I nodded my head as I slurped the noodles in, braving the heat in temperature and taste. "Sobra po. Thank you." I said, covering my full mouth with my hand as I quickly chewed on my food. "Mali pala. Dapat hindi Santa ang tawag ko sa'yo, hindi na din Pasko." I laughed.
