Journey With Selene

Chapter 5

"Selene, someone is looking for you." Kelly said

It's Wednesday today, two days after our trip to the sea. Alas-siete pa lang un umaga. Maaga ako nagising para mag work out at yoga. Sinamahan ako ni Kelly dahil hindi daw sya maka-tulog at 9 am pa ise-serve ang breakfast

"Who?' I asked habang pinupunasan ang aking pawis. I'm wearing a purple sports bra and leggings today, para mas kumportable ako pag nag-exercise

"Apollo." Ani nya at ngumisi sa akin

My eyes widened. The last time I saw Apollo was yesterday, sa pinagta-trabahuhan nya pala ang nagse-serve sa amin ng pagkain. He also asked for my number but we only get to say each other some greetings. Isa pa, bakit siya nandito? Maghahatid na ba sila ng pagkain? Inayos ko ang sarili ko at pinunasan ang iilang bakas ng pawis sa aking balat.

Kelly laughed at what I'm doing before going to the bathroom, maybe she'll take a bath. Lumapit ako sa pintuan at binuksan iyon. There I saw Apollo and the beautiful mornig sky. Naka-suot ito ng putting v-neck shirt at khaki shorts. His biceps are now defined more also his broad shoulders. Bumagay rin ang puting damit sa kulay nya.

Ngumiti siya sa akin. "Pupunta akong bayan ngayon, gusto mo ba sumama?"

I smiled. "Y-yeah, pero I just worked out can you give me thirty minutes?"

Sandali syang tumingin sa kanyang relo. "Oo naman, take your time. Dito lang ako." Ani nya at tinuro ang upuan sa Teresa. Tumango ako bago sinara ang pinto.

I saw Kelly going out of the bathroom, baka naghilamos lang ito.. "Aalis kayo?"

Tumango ako sa kanya. I headed to the bathroom before taking a bath. I pampered myself well before doing my skincare routine. I applied a water based sunscreen before curling my lashes. I applied a light blush and a muted red lip cream. I blow dried my hair for ten minutes before leaving the bathroom. I saw Kelly lying down in my bed while scrolling through her phone

I ignored her and quickly grabbed a White floral midi dress. It perfectly snug my figure. I wore my sandals and grabbed my shoulder bag. Hinayaan kong lumugay ang buhok ko. Kinuha ko ang phone at wallet ko. I looked at Kelly, still unbothered. "Uhm I'll be back."

Inangat nya ang tingin nya sa akin. "Take your time, remember be carefull. Tatlong linggo na lang."

Umirap ako, she doesn't have to remind me about the damn contract. "Go na, I'll clean you room later." Sabi niya. I smiled at her.

"Thanks."

Lumabas ako ng kwarto and there I saw Apollo, admiring the beautiful sky. This is my first time seeing his side profile, it looks immaculate. His proud pointed nose and sharp jawline compliments each toher. Tumikhim ako, unti-unti siyang tumingin sa akin. He smiled at me, pinagmasdan nya ang suot ko bago tumayo. "You look so beautiful, good morning." Ani niya.

I giggled. " Good mor—" naputol ako nang lumabas si Kelly sa kwarto, may hawak siyang polaroid. We both looked at her, confused,

"Picture naman kayo, ang ganda ng langit oh." Sabi nya at pinagtabi kami ni Apollo

I looked at Apollo confused. "May dalawa pa kasing film itong polaroid, sa inyo na lang."

Tinaasan ko ng kilay si Kelly, what the hell is she doing. "Go on, let's take a pic!"

Apollo grabbed me by my waist. I looked at him, he glanced at me. The beautiful morning sky was our background. I looked at the camera and smiled, we took two shots before coming to Kelly. "Hihintaying koi tong ma-develop, pwede na kayo umalis. Bye!" Sabi nya at tumakbo sa kwarto
