Danny's POV

Umakyat kami ni Chaster sa binook naming hotel room para makapag pahinga. Lucas won't answer my calls. Hindi ko alam kung bakit. Parang wala naman akong naalalang pinag-awayan namin.

Nakahiga na ako ngayon at nakatingala sa kisame. I have the same position as Chaster. Lumingon ako sa kabilang kama at nakita kong nakatingin rin siya sa taas na may malalim na iniisip. Silence covered up and I actually wanted to go home to know the truth.

"Chaster." Tawag ko at lumingon naman siya agad. Nakatingin pa rin ako sa kisame at hindi siya tinignan.

"Problema mo?"

"Have you dated any girls before you met me?" I asked.

"None." He smiled bitterly. "Because the first time I laid my eyes on you, I know you're the one."

"Yet, I was not." I laughed sarcastically.

"Have you think about marriage? Carson and his girlfriend is the next for sure. How about you? You're older than us. Balak mo bang tumanda mag-isa?"

"I want to get married." He looked away. "I really wanted, Swear. Having a family is my dream and my goal."

"But you still don't."

"Because you broke my expectations. Ikaw lang kasi talaga eh. I don't know. Maybe, I was just destined for this role. May time talaga na hindi na mabago-bago ang gusto mo sa isang babae."

"Then, Why you didn't date me before? Four years ago, you planned to propose to me without asking me for a date." I chuckled.

"Most girls fell in love with their boy best friends. And out of all of that girls, You weren't the same."

Nagising ako sa mahimbing kong pagkakatulog at laking gulat ko ng makita ko ang tadtad na messages ni Lucas sa akin simula kaninang madaling araw. Hinanap ko si Chaster at mukhang naliligo siya sa CR.

May nag doorbell sa labas kaya naiirita akong tumayo sa kama at naglakad papunta sa pintuan. Hinawakan ko ang doorknob at binuksan ang pinto. I even yawned before I open the door for real.

"Sino ba yan?!" Kasalukuyan kong kinukusot ang mata ko nang may biglang humalik sa akin. I was about to slap that person until I recognized that it was just my husband.

"HOY!" sabi ko at sinarado ulit ang pinto. Dali-dali akong nagsuklay at inayos ang mukha ko sa salamin.

"Bee." I heard him once again. Binuksan ko ulit ang pinto at saka naman siya pumasok sa kwarto.

"How did you know that I was here?" I asked. Saktong lumabas si Chaster na nakatapis ng tuwalya. Tinakpan ni Lucas ang mata ko at humarang sa view.

"You jerk, How could you stay like that infront of my wife?" Tinanggal ko ang kamay ni Lucas sa mga mata ko at nakita ko si Chaster na nakaupo sa lamesa habang kumakain ng apple.

"Wow. By the way, Where were you last night?" He asked sarcastically. "It wasn't a big deal, Lucas. Danny already saw this back on College. We're roommate, you forgot?"

"Danny, Pack up your things. We're leaving." Lucas said seriously.

"I just asked where were you last night and you're already leaving with her?" Chaster smirked.

"Ano bang gusto mong palabasin hah?" Hinawakan ni Lucas ng mahigpit ang braso ko.

"Wala. Nagtatanong lang eh. Huwag ka ngang guilty." Lumapit si Chaster at tinapik ang balikat ni Lucas. Dahil medyo malapit ako ay rinig ko ang binulong niya kay Landon.
