"Edward, someone's here for you." My mom shouted from the living room.

Huh?! 

I wasn't expecting someone. Besides, I spent most of the night partying with my high school friends so I believed that everyone was still asleep like I was seconds ago. 

I went because I missed Maymay. I couldn't get ahold of her since yesterday so when my friends asked me to go, I went with them.

I trust her completely but lately, communication between us was becoming sporadic. Understandable because days before I left, my girlfriend got a call from the international designer saying she was chosen as their primary model in all their fashion shows in Asia, Europe and even US. We said our goodbye temporarily in Qatar, enroute to Germany and her, to Dubai.

I was here in Germany for a month already. The first few weeks, Maymay and I facetimed at least twice a day but on the third week, her schedule became so busy she was too tired to even call me or answer my call. She made up for it by messaging me the next day. She would tell me what was going on with her, etc.

Everything I needed to do here was done. I was itching to go to her but two days ago, she said that not yet. She would be in Europe soon. When? I didn't know. Where in Europe exactly? I didn't know, too.

I reluctantly got up from my bed and went downstairs. I didn't even wash my face nor brush my hair. I just wanted to send that visitor away and go back to bed. When I was halfway down the stairs, I saw...

"Vincent?!" I couldn't believe Maymay's brother was here.

"Edward."

"I missed you, little brother!" My sister hugged me tightly. I didn't know she was here, too. 

"Laura! You're still a midget." I returned her hug as I teased her.

"Why are you here? And why is Vincent here with you? Maymay? Is she here?" 

"Uhm...well...Vincent and I are dating."

"WHAT?!" I was shocked. I didn't even think of the possibility.

"You don't approve?" My sister asked me.

"Well...He's...Are you happy?" I asked as I rubbed the back of my head with my hand. I still couldn't believe it.

"Surprisingly, yes."

"Uhm...Then, that's all that matters. I think. Where's Maymay?" I was beginning to get excited that she was here with them, too.

"About that...her flight was delayed. She will be here tonight, though. I'm sorry." Laura answered, her eyes full of regret.

All my hopes went poof! I was so disappointed I wanted to cry.

"I-i'll be in my room....Just, wake me up later, okay?" I said as I walked up the stairs. I opened the door to my room and began to undress. I forgot to change my clothes I wore last night. I was too lazy to shower so I took off everything except my boxers. I was deciding whether to sleep without it when...

"Oh my God! Edward, no!"

I thought I was hallucinating but I wasn't on drugs so I rubbed my eyes and pinched arms to wake myself up. Yep, it was real. She was real.

"Babe?!"

"In the flesh. Well, with clothes. Hehehe."

I smiled and ran to her. I jumped on the bed making her bounced on it.

"Well, di ka naman masyadong excited niyan, ano?"

"I miss you so much, babe!" I  gathered her in my arms and hugged her tightly. I didn't want to let her go.

"Babe, ma..masakit...Hah...hin..di...a..ko...maka..hi..nga."

"Ooops! My bad. Sobrang na-miss kita." 

"Hindi nga obvious eh." She was being her sarcastic self but she was also happy. She was clinging to me even I released her.

"So, what now?"

"We sleep. I arrived right after you got home. I think it's already 4 in the morning. Buti na lang si Tita early bird. Hindi kita makontak sa phone mo."

"Drained battery. So you already met my mom....Wait! If you arrived here at 4 A.M., where did you sleep?"

"Guest room. Hindi pa sana ako magigising kung hindi pa dumating sina Kuya."

"Speaking of which, you knew?!"

"Matagal na pero nangako ako kay Kuya na hindi ko sasabihin sa'yo. Gusto nila na sila ang magsabi."

"Hmmm...have you met my sister?"

"Yes. Pinuntahan nila ako sa Dubai on my third week there. Yun din ang reason bakit hindi na kita halos makausap. Pagod ako sa work and then when they stayed at my place, sinamahan ko sila mamasyal sa Dubai. Sorry, Babe."

"I understand. So...how long are you here for?"

"1 week break then Italy. Umm, gusto mong sumama?"

"For you, anywhere babe."

"Good. Na-miss kita ng sobra."

I found myself on my back. She must have been going to the gym. She was stronger. She pinned my arms beside my head and straddled me. I saw her smirked. I knew what would happen next. Just to be sure, I asked, "What now?"

"Babe time." And I got lost in the moment starting when her lips touched mine. Good thing I didn't forget to lock my door.
