Love Stories Over A Cup Of Coffee

Couch

It's the second week that P'Ohm and Mild are here at our house to review for the upcoming finals week. P'Ohm has stopped going to the university pool to review. Manager offered him to just come to the house, afterall, there is a pool in the middle of our U-shaped house. Most of P'Ohm's subjects this semester are all minor subjects, thus most have final exams or final papers. I help him with his Math.

As for Mild, he always hangs out here when he wishes to. He's that at home. He also likes staying here because we have a faster internet connection.

P'Ohm and Mild are in the dining area. P'Ohm is seated facing the pool. All the walls facing the pool are made of glass. Meanwhile, Mild is seated across P'Ohm, doing his final project for his multimedia class.

And me, most of my subjects this semester did not give final exams or final project. The only one I did was a painting I've finished a week ago. From time to time, I go over P'Ohm's worksheet to check if he is doing it right.

While the two do their school work, I made them some snack, mango sticky rice, as requested by Mild.

Ring.Ring.Ring.

"P'Earth?"

"Nong, is Mild there?" I looked at Mild. P'Earth never called me to ask for Mild.

"Yes, P'. Why?"

"Can you ask him when will he come to help me with my project?" Really? Mild?

"For a while, P." I called Mild's attention. I asked him what P' was asking. "P', Mild said he will come in a few minutes. He's just finishing something."

"Okay, then. Thank you! See you later!" And the call ended.

Mild left 10 minutes after the call.

I am so tensed. There's only me and P'Ohm. Manager and P'Apple closed the coffeeshop today to do some groceries and shopping.

FLUKE. CALM DOWN. DON'T PANIC. BREATH IN. BREATH OUT.

I'm at the kitchen trying to calm down while doing the dishes. But it didn't help. My heart is beating faster.

Breath in. Breath out.

After washing the dishes, I went to the dining room to check on P'Ohm. He's still writing but I noticed he's been yawning frequently.

"P'Ohm."

"Hmm?" Dang.  Why does he sounds so sweet. HE JUST SAID HMM??????

"If you are tired, why don't you take a rest for a while. Go to the living room. Watch tv for a while. Or play some games to relax." He put down his pen, looked at me and nodded while smiling, telling me he will do what I told him.

"I'm going to prepare some green tea for you to drink. I heard they can wake you up."

I also prepared tea for myself.

When I entered the living room, I saw P'Ohm sitting on the couch but the he did not turn on the television. It's because he has fallen asleep. I immediately put down the tray I'm holding when I saw his head falling. Thank goodness I caught it. But we're in an awkward position: I'm standing while supporting his head with my palm.

So, I repositioned myself. I sat beside him and let his head rest on my shoulder. Since we are so close,I can feel his breathing. I can say he is peacefully sleeping.

Haaaaay. P'Ohm. How can you look gorgeous when sleeping? How I wish I can look at you this way for a long time...

When I opened my eyes,the first thing I saw was P'Ohm. P'Ohm's chin to be exact. AND YES, OH DEAR, MY HEAD IS RESTING ON HIS LAP.
