It's almost 3 AM but I still cant sleep. There are many thoughts running through my mind right now. First is tita Bess' affair with CJ's father, second is about Tosh, and third, CJ! That was my first kiss, and damn, I looked so foolish!

"Gosh, Erin, pull yourself together. You should sleep." I shouted in anger and rolled into my bed.

I need to sleep or else I'll be doomed tomorrow. Pupunta kami sa orphanage bukas so I cannot show myself like this.

I decided to just close my eyes and I'm glad that I'm already able to sleep.

Calling: Eros

"Hello?" I asked him because his call woke me up. It's already 10 AM.

"Anong hello? At bakit mukhang kakagising mo lang, maganda kong kapatid? May orphanage kaya tayong pupuntahan!"

"Damn. Oo nga pala. Sige na, I'll get ready." Napasapo ako sa noo ko at naramdaman ang sakit ng ulo.

He ended the call.

Agad na akong pumunta sa closet at kumuha ng isang simpleng pastel green t-shirt at white high waisted pants. Pumasok na ako sa CR at naligo.

After my routines, I decided to put some make-up. I would look like a corpse if I dont. Concealer, blush and tint would do. I also wore my bracelet. I feel like it would be a sin if I wouldn't wear this.

Narinig ko ang doorbell kaya agad akong tumakbo sa pinto para buksan ito. Nakita ko si CJ. Halos gusto ko nang lumubog sa kinatatayuan ko ng maalala ko naman ang nangyari kagabi.

He's wearing a dark green t-shirt paired with a black pants and white sneakers.

"Good Morning. Kumain ka na?" Dati niya at may dalang isang tupperware at inabot saakin.

"Not yet. I just woke up." I said, trying not to face him.

"Kain ka na. Nagluto ako kanina. Alam ko kasing Carbonara at Shrimps lang ang kaya mong lutuin." He smiled. I saw it from my peripheral vision.

"Okay. Sige, leave it here. Watch if you want." I said as I headed inside my room.

Damn it, Erin! Don't be awkward. Don't make it awkward.

After fixing my bag, I've decided to go out.

"Kain ka na." He insisted and stood up to get a plate for me.

"Uh- I'm not hungry."

"But still, you should eat. You need to eat."

"CJ, pwede 'ba?" Inis kong sabi. Hindi ako naiinis sa kanya kundi sa sarili ko. Why would I act like this towards him?

He faced me and put his body close to me. Umatras ako ng umatras, just to realize that I'm leaning in the wall already. He rested his right hand on the wall beside me, and pinned me completely in the wall with his left hands.

"Pwede 'bang ano?" He hardly said as I smell his perfume.

"Stop. Let me go." I firmly said.

"Should I?" He teased.

"You should. Tigilan mo nga ako, CJ."

"Bakit mo ako iniiwasan?" Diretsang tanong niya.

"Hindi kita iniiwasan, kaya bitawan mo na ako."

"Why would I? Ngayon pa ba kita bibitawan? Promise me that you will eat first." He smirked.

"Oo na." I rolled my eyes and he finally let me go.
