"Joaquin Primo bakit mo siya hinayaang umalis mag isa!!!??" Mama Gabbi is screaming in our family's living room, it seems like Joaquin beat me in going home sa MountainView.

Few Hours Earlier

"I wanna go home" saad ko after the kiss, I am chattering marahil dahil sa lamig ng ulan at sa presence ni Basti.

He nodded "I 'll take you" bulong niya and guided me towards his red Wrangler Jeep na naka park sa harap mismo ng bar, iba rin tong si Basti kahit sa bar may special parking.

When he switch his car on eh bigla akong nilamig sa lakas ng aircon. May kinuha siya sa likod and gave it to me.

"Labas ako palit ka muna mas lalamigin ka eh" and he went out of his car without waiting for my reply.

I shredded my wet night out dress and slip on a large black hoodie that goes on top of my knees, it smells like him.

I heard a knock on my side window and I roll it down.

"Done?" He asked

"Yes" sagot ko as I tied my hair into a bun using a rubber band that I found in his center console.

"Let's go" aya niya and I just nod "san tayo Ma'am?" He asked pag kapasok niya sa loob ng sasakyan.

"MountainView in Laguna" saad ko and he chuckle

"Lapit ah" biro niya

"Ok lang kahit sa Gardens pala nalang kukunin ko nalang kotse ko" alok ko

"Ok na" he smile and took my seat belt and lock it in and my heart beats wildly ang lapit napatingin ako sa lips niya shiiiit oh Lord how can I forget that kiss when I lifted my stare our eyes met "Okay na" I huskily say mimicking his last word napailing siyang tumawa.

We drove in silence, he switch his radio on.

🎶 And I've got all that I need
Right here in the passenger seat
And I can't keep my eyes on the road
Knowing that she's inches from me 🎶

I shiver as the music play on his radio when I look at him he is focus on the road driving but his eyes is silently laughing. Ang walanghiya feeling nasa Koreanovela.

"What?" Tanong niya

"Huh?" Takang balik tanong ko

"Ano yung sabi mo? Nasa Koreanovela?" Natatawa niyang tanong

Lord pwedeng pa evaporate now na ang daldal ko talaga, I have a bad habit of saying things a loud na dapat nasa isip ko lang. "Wala yun" this is me trying to brush it off.

Nagpatuloy ang tahimik naming pag lalakbay. Dahil gabi na wala ng traffic sa kalsada and we arrive at around 2:30 am, matapos kong mag pakita sa guard sa gate ng village eh we are granted with access.

"Basti thanks sa pag hatid ha" basag ko sa katahimikan "sorry di nakita maiinvite sa loob baka sleeping na kasi parents ko, ibabalik ko sa monday tong sweat shirt mo" saad ko.

"No problem Alessandra, take your time" he smile.

"Alessandra talaga haha" naiiling kong sabi "Sige una nako" paalam ko as I gather my stuff.

"Ten" pigil niya

"What?" Takang tanong ko

"Can I call you Ten instead of Alex" he said
