"And why would you guys go home?" Maria and Jaime asked when Harry and I told them that they've finally met, causing us to just go and visit someplace else, "No. You should not go." Jaime smiled, "You are my guests. Please stay a while longer. Probably a week or so."

"We just feel it's too much-"

"Biliran is a beautiful place. There's a lot of places you can go to here. Stay here. I'll take Maria to a lot of places here. Same as you."

In the end, Harry and I agreed. Afternoon came, and the guest room was arranged. I was surprised that Jaime have a lot of guest rooms. He prepared two rooms for us. While Tacoy decided to stay with his family. Evening came, and Jaime told us to prepare. Tomorrow, we'll go to Tinago Falls in Naval, Biliran. After dinner, I went to my room. I then lied down and smiled at the events that happened. Maria and Jaime met again after many years. And they're happy. I was sad that they're both dying though

Then my thoughts went to Carmen, the nun daughter of Jaime.

"I placed his old letter to the museum, thinking that someone may find it and give it to her. And it found you Freya. It found Harry too. There must have been a reason."

I can't help but wonder though. Out of many people that visits the museum every day, why did the letter found me? Why did the letter found Harry? Why did the letter found us? I mean, I don't want to assume that something romantic is going to come up like the ones in the movies. But what India told me before I left:

"FIND YOURSELF A BOYFRIEND THERE FREYA."

Could it be? Could the letter be a sign that I'm gonna have a boyfriend here? Is Harry my boyfriend? I mean, WITH THAT CUTE FACE AND HOT BODY, WHO WOULDN'T LOVE TO BE MARRIED TO HARRY FREAKING STYLES? IF SOMEONE DOES NOT WANT HIM AS A BOYFRIEND, THAT SOMEONE MUST HAVE LIVED IN MARS OR SOMETHING!!!

I sighed until a knock was heard on the door. I rose up from the bed and approached the door, opening it to reveal Harry, brushing his hair back. SHIT!

"Hey." I smiled. Be confident. You got this. Don't melt or blush or you're dead.

"Hey." He smiled.

"What can I do for you?"

He giggled, "Nothing. I just... I saw the bay outside and it's so cool. I was thinking....maybe.... we can go together? If you're not sleepy of course-"

"Why?" I asked, trying to control my blushing.

"Don't you want to?"

"I want to. I'm just asking why?"

"I just wanna go and take you there."

"But I'm wearing PJs now. You're still in your outfit from earlier."

"I know." He laughed.

"I'll change-"

"Don't." He said, holding my hand. OH MY GOD!!!! HE'S HOLDING MY HAND!!! BE LIKE INDIA!!! BE COMPOSED LIKE INDIA FUCKING EISLEY!!! "Just be like that. Its cute." He smiled.

"Fine." I said and we went out of the house, with Harry still holding my hand. He then let go as we were outside, walking together going to the beach. As we reached the beach, we sat by the sea wall beside each other.

"Jaime said that at early dawn, fishermen would have a lot of fishes caught and sell it here at its freshest." Harry smiled, looking at me.

"That's cool."

"I was wondering if you could wake up that early."

"Why?"

"Let's watch them sell fishes tomorrow. And maybe you know, we can buy one."

"You're not gonna take anyone else? Tacoy? Or Maria and Jaime?"

He shook his head, "Why? Is it uncomfortable for you if it's just me and you?"

WHAT THE FUCK!!! JUST ME AND HIM?!? I REALLY THINK I'M DEAD BEFORE I REACHED PHILIPPINES. I tried my best to not blush at all, "No. I mean, why just me?"

"I mean... Can I be honest with you Freya?"

"Of course."

"We're different. I mean, look at Tacoy, Maria, Jaime, they're Filipino. Macoy may be half-Japanese but he lives the Filipino life. We're the only ones that are foreigners here."

"Oh."

"I was kinda expecting that I would go round the Philippines alone. I never thought that I would meet people."

"You don't want to be with people in the Philippines?"

"Of course I would love too. It's just....meeting you guys.... It happened all of a sudden, it was hard to catch up. I was thinking on meeting you guys in at least.... Slow manner. Cause I'm not really a people person."

"Oh."

"I'm sorry-"

"Hey, it's okay." I giggled, "How about this: I'll let you love these people the way I love them even though I've met them just now."

"How?"

"We'll take things slow, according to your pace. I'll help you."

"You'll help me?"

"Don't you want to?" I joked.

"I would." He said softly, causing me to blush a bit. SHIT! THAT SOFT VOICE OF HARRY STYLES. IT'S GONNA KILL ME.

I then nodded to assure him that I'll help him. We both smiled and faced the bay.

"Sounds cool." Harry said.
