Yesterday was a bit tiring for me so I decided to take a rest at pinauwi na ng maaga si Antonio after cleaning a bit. I watched some movies and ate like a gorilla.

I wanted to do everything I like before I can start my summer job.

I also cleaned a bit. Inilagay ko na ang ibang gamit ko sa kuwarto. Naalala ko naman na kailangan  ko nga palang bumili ng drawer and a cabinet for my clothes. Lumang luma na kasi ang ibinigay sa akin dati so I've decide to leave it and buy a new one.

I also noticed that my aircon in my room is leaking. Basang basa tuloy ang sahig ko, dalawang araw na.

Pinagmasdan ko ang kabuuan ng bahay ko. There's still a lot of works to do.

I need someone's help right now.

Halos antukin na ako nang marinig kong nagring ang door bell. I immediately opened the door.

"You need me?" Bungad sa akin ni Antonio plastering an annoying smile on his face. Parang nagkaroon tuloy ako ng urge to close the door again.

"Bakit parang ang sama na naman ng araw mo? You missed me already?"

"Is this the dare? To flirt with me?" Tanong ko. Bigla namang umayos ito ng tayo.

"Why, will you flirt with me then?" I closed the door in annoyance. I heard him say that it was a joke. Naghintay ako ng ilang segundo bago ko ulit siya pagbuksan.

"Joke lang eh." He said in a fake sad tone nang buksan ko ang pinto.

"You have tons of things to do!" Paalala ko sa kanya.

He went inside my unit. He's wearing a plain white shirt and a casual short. I also noticed that he's now carrying a bag.

Prepared!

"What works do I need to do?" He asked. Pinagmasdan niya ang ibang kahon. I already put the utensils and other kitchen stuffs on the kitchen cabinet. Naglalaman naman ng mga damit ko ang natitirang mga kahon.

"You need to fix my aircon, it's leaking." Sabi ko. Dumako ang tingin niya sa aircon sa salas.

"That?" Turo niya.

"No, in my room." He suddenly gave me a look.

"In your room?" Tanong niya na para bang hindi makapaniwala.

So what if it's in my room? May kailangan ba siyang gawin sa kuwarto ko? Is it about that dare?

I crossed my arms. "Bakit, may gagawin ka?" Tanong ko. He immediately look away.

"O-of course not!" Aniya. "Also it's to early to do that dare anyway!" Saad niya pa. Tumaas naman ang kilay ko.

"Oh, really?" I asked while looking directly at him. Nakakacurious talaga kung ano ang dare niya ha, but anyway, I won't asked about it na. I want to know it myself.

"Iyon lang ba ang gagawin ko?" Tanong niya. Dumako ang tingin ko sa bag niya na bitbit niya pa rin.

"Why don't you put that bag of yours away?" I asked.

"Oh, right!" Bigla naman itong bumalik sa may pintuan. Saan naman pupunta iyon?

He came back without his bag. "Where did you put your bag?" He looked at me confused.

"Uh, on the shoe rack?" He said like it was obvious. I suddenly remember that I told him to not put his things onto my things.

I combed my hair shyly. Should I allow him to put his bag on my sofa?
