38: thank you devil
A/N: would be best to listen to this song when reading this chapter:
SAVED by The Spill Canvas
❤️I am unraveling unbearably empty and if this ground gives way I just hope that you'll catch me❤️

“Wow you really cooked!” bulalas ko at inamoy-amoy ang dalawang putahe na niluto ni Rocket. You know that food with an orange sauce? I have no way of knowing if it’s afritada, menudo or what, I don't really know what makes them different from each other. Ang mahalaga ay makakain ako. He also had a recipe with some veggies on it, and man that looks delicious.
“Set the table,” wika niya at inilapag ang pitsel sa naglalaman ng tubig. Have I already said he looks so cute in that pink apron?
“Rocket.”
He looked at me.
Napasimangot ako habang tinitingnn ang mga nakahain sa mesa. “Where’s my hotdog?”
I want hotdogs but he didn’t cook even a single one. Wait. Don’t tell me...
“Hey hey, do you really want me to eat your--”
“Shut up titless and just set the table.”
Boo, pikon! Pero aminin, na-excite siya dahil do'n.
I stomped my foot and pouted. “Hotdogs!”
Napabuga siya ng hangin, tanda ng pagsuko. “Fine!” Then he turned to his back and walked straight towards the fridge to get hotdogs.

I was enjoying my food. Katunayan ay hindi ko na matandaan kung pang-ilang dagdag ko na ‘to ng kanin. Rocket can cook, that fact is fascinating. I love to bake but nah to cooking. Napansin kong panay tingin siya sa akin samantalang nagfocus naman ako sa pagkain.
He set down his utensils, “Tell me bakit mo ako dinala rito.”
“The food is great,” sagot ko sa kanya at nagthumbs up sa kanya.
“That’s not what I am asking.”
Napasimangot ako habang ngumunguya. “I just complimented your cooking skills, say thank you devil.”
He sighed. “Thank you devil.”
Napasimangot lamang ako lalo. “No, you’re the devil duh.”
“I beg to disagree.”
This time I rolled my eyes and resume eating. “Whatever.”
“So why?” pagpupumilit pa rin niya. Mukhang wala siyang balak na tantanan ako sa tanong niyang iyon hangga’t hindi ko siya sinasagot.
