"Leviticus, you have a visitor."
"Sandali lang po, Ma." I replied through the intercom.
I quickly grabbed my backpack and my wristwatch placed on my table. Isinuot ko ang relo habang naglalakad pababa ng hagdan.
"Good morning, honeybunch!"
I almost stumbled on the stairs when someone popped up in my face. My shock eventually faced and was replaced by joy upon seeing her face.
"Hon!" I exclaimed then hugged her, lifting her from the floor. "Ghad, I missed you."
She giggled as she buried her face on my neck. "I missed you too. So much. But put me down now. My skirt's hitching up."
"Sorry." I said after I put her down. I smiled widely while cupping her face. "Kailan ka pa dumating? Why didn't you tell me?"
"Well duh, hon, may surprise bang sinasabi?"
I can't get enough of her face so I immediately leaned down and kissed her on the lips. After a few seconds, we broke away and I hugged her again.
"Someone's clingy, huh?" she chuckled.
I moved away from her. "Can't blame me. You were gone for almost a month!"
She pat my head. "There, there. I'm here now, see?" she smiled.
"Have I told you how much I love you?" I asked while looking straight to her beautiful brown eyes.
"Yes. About a million times, I guess?"
I kissed her again but was abruptly stopped when my mother called for us.
"Leviticus! Lucy! Breakfast is ready!"
She gasped. "Your mother almost caught us kissing!" she whispered.
I laughed. "So? What's wrong?"
"You're so annoying." she snorted then walked towards the kitchen leaving me behind.
Mabilis ko siyang sinundan at inakbayan. "And you're so cute." I said while pinching her cheeks.
"Aw!" she whined and I laughed.

"So, your girlfriend has arrived huh?" usisa ni Mei.
"Wait, san nga siya galing?" tanong naman ni Toto.
"What was her name again?" That was Kiel.
"Yes. London. Lucy." I answered all of their questions at once.
Natawa si Dashiel sa sinabi ko. Babaw talaga ng kaligayahan nito pero ang hirap patawanin.
"Alam mo, ang weirdo mo talaga, Dashiel." turo ni Mei sa kanya. "You laugh at the most random things but rarely happens."
Dashiel just shrugged. It was my time to laugh.
"Someone's happy." Kiel commented, looking at me.
"Of course. My honeybunch is here." I proudly said.
Mei grimaced. "Cringy endearment, Leviticus."
"Whatever, Meina." I said. "Just go get yourself a boyfriend para mabawasan 'yang bitterness mo. Or girlfriend, if you swing that way." I joked.
She just glared at me. Binantaan pa ako ng tinidor, buti nalang malayo siya sa akin.
"Oo nga, Mei. Bakit wala ka pang boyfriend?" Toto asked.
"Gusto mong ikaw tusukin ko?" Si Toto naman pinagbantaan niya ng tinidor. "Stop pestering me." Pero tinawanan lang siya ni Toto.
Mei rolled her eyes. Then looked at Dashiel subtly before looking down her food.
