I woke up from a noise coming from the television, I don't understand what's showing on it now. I could only open up one eye and look at the television and it's showing some news about the high tide yesterday and they stated that there have no damages that occurred to last night's phenomena. Nakahinga naman ako ng maluwag doon dahil isa rin iyon sa inaalala ko kagabi at baka hindi pa kami makabalik ng Manila on-time. Though wala namang problema sa akin ang mag-stay pa ng isang araw kung papahupain ang sitwasyon, but it's not me who's gonna shoulder everything, it's Cholo. Bringing me alone into this travel was expensive enough, ano pa kayang magtagal pa kami ng isang araw dito?

Upon checking Cholo on his bed, napamulat na ang dalawa kong mata ng makita kong wala na naman siya doon sa kama niya. I panic. I hastily checked his bags if he's still there and I was relieved when his stuff was still here but just like yesterday, I woke up and he wasn't around.

I checked the time on my phone and it's just six in the morning, our flight will be in ten and we still have little things to do in a limited time. I instantly take a bath in case Cholo came in already took his shower. It didn't take too much time in the shower when in the next few hours, we'll be leaving this place. After putting some clothes on, a white lace, spaghetti strap mini dress. It is not revealing though, it just looks so good and comfy for me to wear now.

I grab my sling bag and about to leave the room when I stopped because someone from the outside open the door and it's not a surprise when I saw Cholo two cups of coffee. Tulala naman itong nakatingin sa akin at kulang na lang ay mabitawan niya ang mga hawak niya. He looked at me from head to toe then his eyes stick to my face and he was just smiling.

"Cholo?" I waved my hands in his face. "Ano, tulala lang?"

He shook his head and came to his senses, "coffee?"

"Sure..." kinuha ko sa kamay niya 'yong baso ng kape. "Saan ka ba galing?" tanong ko naman sa kanya saka siya tuluyang pumasok sa loob ng kwarto. He sits on his bed while I'm stading near beside him.

"I was just around looking for a coffee..." sagot nito sa akin. "And why do you dressed up like you're going into a beach party?" he asked scratching his head.

"Is there any restriction to where something like this? Mukhang wala namang sinabi sa atin na bawal ang ganitong suot, diba? And I just feel like wearing this when it's our last day in this country. Why don't you dressed up too?" I suggested when he immediately shook his head, "bakit naman? Are you already satisfied with your denim short and white shirt like I've never seen before?"

He chuckles and nodded, "I don't care what I wear, saka kahit ano namang suotin ko, bagay sa akin." Ngisi pa nito sa akin.

Umakto akong tinangay ng malakas na hangin, natapos pa ang kape at nadaplian ang kamay ko pero hindi ko na naman ininda. Kumuha na lang ako ng tissue para punasan ang kamay ko at ang tumulo sa sahig.
