"Ang aga aga, ice cream agad."ani Kaye nang makita akong kumakain ng ice cream.

I was in Kaye's condo with my cousins since Friday, after I had coffee with Arc. I grab the ube flavored ice cream when I saw it in the fridge and ate it. Siyempre, I can do whatever I want because it's Sunday!

Inubos ko muna ang ice cream sa loob ng bibig ko bago ako nagsalita.

"Wag mo 'kong pakielaman. Wala akong ginawa sayo."ani ko at masayang kinain ang ice cream.

Umismid si Kaye at kinuha ang malamig na tubig sa fridge at nilagay sa counter. She transfered the water inside the glass and drank it before she put the pitcher inside the fridge, again.

"Sa'n tayo gagala ngayon?"tanong ko. She just shrugged and went out from the dining room.

Minutes passed and Sheen entered the dining room with her sleepy eyes. She drank the warm water on the counter and went outside the dining room, never noticed me.

Kumain ako ng ice cream habang nagsc-scroll ng newsfeed sa Facebook. Nahinto din agad nang makita ang shinared post ni Kariel na kwintas na eroplano. I really love it so I shared it before I continued scrolling my newsfeed.

Pumunta na ako sa taas nang maubos ang ice cream. I took a bath and wear my peach sweatshirt. I paired it with my black shorts and my Nike shoes. I ponytailed my hair before I went outside.

I went inside the dining room and saw them preparing our food. Ngumisi ako at umupo sa nakasanayang upuan.

When Hale saw me sit on my seat, she immediately went near me and touched my hair.

"Anong maipaglilingkod ko sa iyo, Mahal na Prinsesa?"biro niya kaya agad ko siyang binatukan. She just laughed and continued caressing my hair.

"Anong uri ng prinsesa ako kung ikaw ang tatanungin?"sabay ko sa biro niya.

"Prinsesa ng mga ilaw. Everyday ilaw, eh."singit ni Sheen at tumawa na agad sinabayan ng lahat. I mocked their laugh and rolled my eyes in irritation.

"Hindi pa nga pinasukan ng light bulb, ilaw agad? Boba! Almost one month na akong walang ilaw, 'no!"ani ko at umirap ulit. They laugh but Sheen's laugh was superseding that made my irritation level up.

"Buti nakaya mo, sis? Ang alam ko, everyday kang iniilawan noon, iba iba pa ang light bulb sa gabi. Tapos ngayon?! Is that miracle?"aniya na parang hindi makapaniwala. I raised my middle finger at her and rolled my eyes.

They continued teasing me before Kaye served the foods. I silently thanked God for the food and Sheen's teasing moment stopped.

Kaye told us where we'll spend our day and what we'll do. Tamang tama din na sinuot ko ang attire ko ngayon dahil nabagay din sa lakad namin.

I gave them one hour for them to prepare themselves. I silently watched the blue skies above while tapping my feet on the floor. I smiled when I realized how obsessed I was when it comes to skies.

After that given hour, we walked the long highway and went to the nearest mall.

We spent our day with arcades, shopping, eating in different restaurant, and drinking frappe or milktea in every coffee shop.

It's 2:52 pm when Sheen and I went to the jewelry store without the others. Ang sabi nila, may bibilhin lang daw sila sa second floor na damit ng Forever21 at dahil hindi naman ako interesado doon ay dumito nalang muna ako, kasama si Sheen, siyempre.

I looked at every necklace displayed inside the glass. I really want to buy it but I need to budget my money.

I was busy looking at the gold rings displayed inside the glass when someone suddenly rest his hand on my shoulder and tapped it slowly like he wanted to get my attention. Nilingin ko iyon at ngumisi sa pag-aakalang kilala ko iyon ngunit agad ding nawala nang hindi makilala iyon.

He's handsome. His black eyes were looking at my reaction and the side of his lips rose as he looked at me.

Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay, "Yes, sir?"tanong ko. I'm already used of mens tapping my shoulder and ask for my name or my number. I just told them my name and gave them a wrong number.

He smiled, "Are you alone, miss?"

Tumaas ang kilay ko. Bakit, anong gagawin mo?

Sasagot na sana ako nang may biglang nagsalita sa likod ko.

"No. She's with me."

His cold voice send shivers down my spine. I swallowed the lump in my throat and slowly turned my head to look at his dark face.

Oh, right. I remembered his words. 'Kapag sa kaniya ay kaniya lamang.'

The man in front of me chuckled. Arc immediately pulled me closer and started to walk out. Leaving the people behind.

I caught myself smiled without humor so I immediately stopped it. Nagmumukha na akong baliw kakangisi dito.

Dumiretso siya sa parking lot ng mall at agad akong hinatak papasok sa kotse niya. He closed my door after he buckled my seat belt and turned around to open the driver seat.

He looked mad like he wanted to kill someone. I remained silent as he drove his way to... an unfamilliar way.

Tumigil siya sa parking lot ng isang condominium. I guess it's his condo so I just followed him when he opened the driver seat.

I immediately followed him when he went inside the lift. We were silent inside that made the atmosphere awkward at the highest rank. Nang tumunog ang elevator, hudyat na nasa tamang palapag na kami ay agad siyang lumabas ng lift kaya sinundan ko ulit siya.

He slipped the card and went inside his condo. Nagliwaliw ang mga mata ko nang bigla niya akong hatakin papasok ng condo niya.

When he successfully pulled me inside, he immediately locked the door and pushed me there. Naramdaman ko ang sakit doon ngunit agad nawala nang marahas niyang nilapat ang labi sa akin.

And my world began to black and let him control myself.
