It has been three days since he came back. Nasabi ko na ba noon na sadyang bumibilis ang oras kapag masaya tayo? Sadya itong bumibilis kapag kasama natin ang taong mahal natin. Sasabihin ko ulit ngayon. Time flies incredibly fast when we're with the people we cherish the most.

"Ne, Geurae" Yes, okay. Brian received an international call habang nag iikot kami sa isang mall, Miyerkules ng tanghali.

"Naneun Pillipin-e iss-eoyo," I'm in the Philippines. He said to the other line. We're currently at Gong Cha, waiting for our bubble tea.

"Na geogjeong hajima," Don't worry about me. I understand what he just said. The one who called is probably worried about him right now.

"Mrs. Kang?" Tawag ng nasa cashier. Bahagyang bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko. Ako ba 'yon? Si Brian kasi ang umorder kanina. Napatingin ako kay Brian, nakangiti siya at tumango lamang sa akin. Ako nga iyon! Tumayo na ako at agad lumapit sa counter upang hindi mapansin ni Brian ang pagpula ng pisngi ko. Kinikilig ako!

Napasulyap ang kahera kay Brian habang inaabot sa akin ang order namin. Nakilala ba niya si Brian? Brian was just wearing a plain peach-colored shirt and maong pants. Nakasuot din siya ng cap at itim na mask while I'm wearing almost the same shades with his shirt. Nakamaong na short din ako and a black mask. Brian is wearing mask to hide his identity while I'm used to wearing mask for my own health safety. "You look good together, ma'am!" Bati pa niya. I smiled as a reply. Kinikilig na nga ako e.

"Jeon gwaenchanhayo," I'm fine. He glanced at me when I got back to my seat. He gave me a smile as I place his bubble tea in front of him. "Geogjeongma, Sungjin hyeong. God dol-aolgeoya," Don't worry, Sungjin. I'll be back soon. I sipped on my tea as I was looking at him. He looks so sexy while he's speaking in Korean. Malala na yata ako?

"Hyeong, gomawo," thank you. He said his goodbye then hanged up.

"Are they looking for you, now?" I asked curiously. He nodded.

"When is your flight back?" I asked again. Baka iniisip nila na hindi na babalik si Brian? Hindi naman 'yon pwede dahil may kontrata siya. Kung ako lang, ibubulsa ko na siya.

"Two days from now. Let's go? I want to make special memories with you while I'm still here," he said smiling and stood up. We're now walking towards the cinema. He said he wanted to watch a movie because he rarely watched one nowadays. I remembered way back college, he's always at our house and we'd spend the whole day watching films and series. Bihira niya daw gawin ang bagay na 'yon ngayon.

He was holding my waist when he suddenly stopped. I automatically halted as well. "Popcorn juseyo" please. He said while pouting his lips. A growned up man acting cute in front of me, oh my gosh, this is too much. My heart can't take it anymore.

Itinago ko ang aking kilig at pinalitan ito ng pagtataka, "We just ate a while ago, right?"

He looked up as if he was thinking, he nodded so slowly and returned his gaze to me, "well, we did but they said cinema is better with popcorn?" He said unsure.

"And who told you that?" I asked while letting out a small chuckle. He shrugged. "I'm not quite sure if it is Wonpil or Dowoon," he said pertaining to his younger bandmates.

I smiled and surrendered. "Okay, we'll buy popcorn," I stated.

"Do you think Tala will like this?" Hindi ko alam kung pang ilang beses na akong tinanong ni Brian. He's holding a paper bag and inside it are ingredients for baking. Brian said he wanted to do something with Tala but he's not sure what activity should they do so I suggested baking. I took classes before so I'm quite knowledgeable about it. Naalala ko din na sinabi sa akin ni Tala noon na gusto niya din subukan mag bake.
