Umalis kami galing sa condo ng 11 kaya nakarating kami after an hour dahil sa traffic.
"Andito na tayo." I said and parked the car.
"Yey! I'm excited to see Tita and Tito!" Leah exclaimed.
"Excited ka lang sa pagkain noh!" Micah said na nakapag patawa saamin.
"Tse!" Leah said and bumaba na sa sasakyan.

Bumaba na din kami pero nagpahuli kami ni Tan.

"Tita! Tito!" Leah shouted.
"Hi Leah!" Mom and Dad said.
"Tita ano handa niyo?" Agarang tanong ni Leah.
"Huy Leah nakakahiya ka!" Micah said.
"Maraming handa pumasok na kayo dun." Mom said.
"Micah! Ang laki mo na! Namiss ka namin! Buti at nagkita kita din kayo!" Dad said and they hugged Micah.
"Kamusta na po kayo? Kakamiss din po bumalik dito." Micah said and smiled.

"Hi Mommy and Dad!" I said and pulled them for a hug.
"Happy birthday, anak!" Mom and Dad said.
"Thank you po." I said.
"Oh! Tristan andito ka din pala!" Mom and Dad said.
"Hello po!" Tan greeted them.
"Mom,Dad, kilala niyo po si Tristan as my boss and friend diba?" I said and smiled at them.
"Oo naman." Dad said.
"He's my boyfriend now." I said na medyo kinabahan pa.
"Really?!" They shouted.
"Opo." Tan said and gave them a smile.
"T-Thats great!" Dad said and patted Tan's back.
"Wala problema saamin yun! Basta masaya kayo." Mom smiled.

Tan and I looked at each other with a smile. Hindi na kami nahirapan. My only problem now is Tan's parents.

Kumain na kami ng lunch. Leah really enjoyed since siya ata ang madaming nakain. Mom and Dad prepared spaghetti, chicken, salad and other stuff. Kami kami lang naman pero nakakatuwa din naman.

3 in the afternoon when we decided to go back at our condo.
"Nabusog ako!" Leah exclaimed.
Tumawa kami syempre siya yung madaming nakain pero hindi naman tumataba.
"Ang sweet nina Tita!" Micah said.
"Nabusog kami!" Eli said.
"Nga pala Viv." Micah said and I felt him look at me.
"Bakit?" I asked still focusing on the road.
"Did you tell Tita and Tito about your relationship with Tristan?" She asked.
"Yes." Tan said at sila na nag-usap.

Nakarating kami sa condo four na ng hapon.

"Magready ka na Vivianne!" Leah said and smiled at me.
"Mamaya pa naman kami aalis ni Tan. Diba?" I said and looked at Tan.
"We'll leave before 5. Babalik din tayo mamaya or maybe tomorrow. Depends on what happens." He said and laughed.
"Aba!!" Micah, Eli and Leah teased.
"Loko niyo talaga!" I said and nag-ayos na ng gamit.

I packed extra clothes para sure. Hindi naman kasi sinabi ni Tan kung saan talaga kami pupunta.

Mabilis yung oras kaya Tan knocked on the door and said, "It's time to go. We'll take my car. Are you ready?"
"Sige. Let's go." I said and tumayo na.

"Ingat kayo! Enjoy!" Micah and Leah teased.
"Ewan ko sainyo!" I said bago lumabas.

"Saan ba tayo pupunta?" I asked for the thousand time.
"Basta nga! Matulog ka nalang. I'll wake you when we arrive there." He said and smiled sweetly.

Ginawa ko ang sinabi niya. I just don't know how lang I slept.

Nagising ako when I felt Tan na tinatapik ako.

"Baby, we're here." He said and kissed my forehead.
Nagising ako and I saw a mansion and a beach.
"Where are we?" I asked at lumabas na ng sasakyan.
"Sa rest house namin." He simply said.
"May rest house kayo?" I asked.
"Yup." He said.
"Tara pasok na tayo sa loob." He said and brought our things.
Hinayaan ko na siya gawin iyon.

Pagpasok namin. I was shocked to see the inside! Its so huge! This is my first time to go inside a big place like this.

"Woah!" I exclaimed.
"Like it?" He asked and smiled at me.
"Yeah!" I said and roamed around.
"Its getting a little late. Is it okay for you if we stay for a night?" He asked.
"Ang dami ko nang absent." I said and looked at him pero gusto ko talaga magstay dito.
"Thats fine." He said.
"You have work too." I said.
"I can cope up. Besides, Kath is there." He said so confident.

May beach pala kaso wala akong dala na kahit anong panligo. Sayang.

"If you need anything, tell me or the maids." He said.
"Are we sleeping in the same room? Or a separate one?" I asked.
There's atleast 4 rooms in this mansion. Ang laki nga eh!

"What do you want? Your choice." He said and chuckled.
"I'm fine with anything." I said and bumaba na to go to the beach because I want to see the sunset!

I'm guessing this beach is also theirs. Mayaman sila eh.

Nagtampisaw lang ako dun. Took pictures of the beautiful sunset and also took some selfies!

"You want to swim?" I heard Tan asked behind me.
"Mhm. I don't have any swimsuit though." I said and scrolled through the pictures I took.
"I bought you one. I'm sure they'll fit you. Payat ka naman eh." He said and laughed.
"Was that a compliment or was that something I should get insecure about?" I asked him.
"A compliment." He said and nagtampisaw na din sa tubig.

"I want to take a picture of you. You look good with the sunset." He said.

Pinicturan niya and said that he'll post a picture of me on IG too. We took many selfies together too. I got stolen pictures of him that looks good!

"I'm going to post on IG, baby." I said and picked a picture of him.
"Put the caption on O, please." He said and smiled a little.
"Okay."  I said.

Nagpalit na din kami ng suot namin after picture taking so we could swim. Night swimming.

The water is warm. Its feels good actually. Pwede siya makawala ng stress. If I were to pick a life between here or where I live now, I'd rather pick to live here. It's much more peaceful. Feeling ko less problems pag andito ako.

"What are you thinking?" He asked and looked at me curiously.
"I'm comparing life here and my life there." I said and closed my eyes.
"You like it better where?" He asked.
I opened my eyes and said, "I would like it better here."
"Me too. Its very peaceful." He said and hugged me.
"True." Natatangi kong nasabi.

Nagpahinga kami and sat on the sand for a little while and we talked about each other.
"Its good to know you more. I mean I already know you but I think I know more about you now." He said and pulled me for a warm kiss.

Yeah it ended on us breathing and needing air.

"Each time we kiss, you always end up being red." He laughed.
"Hmp." I looked away and smiled.
"Its cute! Don't take that in a wrong way!" He said and pulled me for a tight hug.
"Your hugs make me feel secure." I said and hugged him tighter.
"Your love gives me a reason to live my life to the fullest." He said.
"Kinikilig ako haha! I love you!" I said and closed my eyes.
"I love you till death, my love." I heard him say that before ako dinalaw ng antok.

Nagising ako and I was sleeping on a bed in a white room. I looked around and I figured that I'm in one of the bedrooms in this mansion. Its morning already. Lumabas na ako and went downstairs. I saw Tan cooking.

"Good morning." I said and hugged him from behind.
"Morning, baby." He said.
"Hindi mo ako ginising." I said.
"You were sleeping like an angel, how can I wake you up?" He said and inakbayan ako.
"Bolero." I said.
"Sayo lang ako nagkakaganito." He said and smiled meaningfully.
"Ligo lang ako saglit." I said at bumitaw sa pagkaakbay niya.
"Sure. I'll wait for you here." He said.
