"He....llo?" Inaantok na sabi ko. Nag-ring ang phone ko kaya kahit tinatamad bumangon, inabot ko pa din iyon.

"Good morning," he said, enthusiastically.

"Cai, seriously? Ang aga-aga pa po,"

"Oh, sorry, my bad." Rinig ko ang tawa niya.

"What is it? Why did you called?"

"Why? Bawal ko ba'ng tawagan ang girlfriend ko?" Sabi niya sa tonong nakikipag-away. Mahina akong natawa.

"Ano nga?"

"Let's date," it wasn't a question.

"You're not asking me, are you?" I laughed.

"I am asking you!"

"You sounded like you just made a decision and you are just informing me!" I fired back.

He groaned. "Is that a yes?"

"Papayag ka ba kapag sinabi kong hindi?"

"Hindi," rinig ko ang tawa niya.

His laughter completed my day. It's music to my ears. It has been two weeks since we've become together and those two weeks was my happiest. Kesha and Lexie, as expected, freaked out when I told them. Kuya was okay with it as long as I am happy, that's what he said. Jian was cool with it, too.

"Okay, pero may art class ako ng 8:00-10:00 AM. Ayos lang ba sa'yo?"

"Oo naman,"

"Okay, then! Text na lang kita sa address if class done na, hm?"

"Copy. Eat breakfast first bago ka umalis ng bahay niyo. Text me when you get there."

"Yes, Tay," biro ko.

"Jei!"

"Joke lang! Hahaha! Eto na nga, eh babangon na,"

"Good girl."

Bumangon na ako pagkatapos kong patayin ang tawag. Naligo at nagbihis bago umalis ng bahay. Nagpahatid lang ako kay Manong Edgar sa studio kung saan ako pupunta para sa art class. Last week pa ito nagstart kaso ngayon lang ako nakapunta. Makakahabol naman siguro ako.... I think...

"Good morning, po," Bati ko sa ginang na naroroon sa loob ng silid.

"Miss Mortell?"

Tumango ako. "Yes, po,"

"Oh, hi! I'm glad you came. Go pick a seat and we will start in a minute," she smiled.

Inilibot ko ang tingin sa paligid para pumili ng bakanteng uupuan nang biglang nahagip ng mga mata ko ang dalawang pamilyar na mukha. Lumapit ako.

"Blake?"

Nilingon ako nito at umawang ang labi nang makita ako. "H-Hey,"

"You're here?" Hindi makapaniwalang sabi ko.

"Yeah, I certainly am. You? First time mo umattend?"

"Ah, oo, na-late ako, eh,"

"Ay, ganoon ba? Dito ka na maupo," alok niya sa bakanteng upuan sa tabi nito. "By the way, I'm with my sister, Blythe," he pointed at his sister who is currently busy on her canva but she find time to gave me a small smile. "You met her once already,"

"Yeah, yeah, I did. I remember," I smiled. She's so beautiful.

We started minutes after that. Miss Falcon focused on me because I literally am no idea about what I'm doing. She taught me so many things and facts. And she told me I am a fast learner so I felt so proud.
