I am already awake but frustration kept telling my mind to sleep more and brush off the negative vibes I had since that night.

I never know that she has that charm to manipulate people.

I'm too near to getting the explanation I deserved to know but God! I hate that woman for making Tita Ana promise something. Argh!

"I know your awake, Arc. Is that your way of thanking me, by ignoring me, huh?" God, that voice of hers is such a bad tune to my ears.

"Go away." As I muttered after covering my face with a blanket.

"Nope. I've been away for two days and I'm kinda tired of staying away." She's been away for two days and I haven't received an answer for two days too.

I heard you've done a little investigation since I'm away. What have you found?" I uncover the blanket from my face only to find out that she is grinning at me. Crazy woman.

"Cut it out, Kas. That grin doesn't suit you." I said an annoyed manner and focused my view on the window.

It seems like the sun had shown today. I thought it'll be raining for a week.

"Ouch." I cupped my head as a stinging pain jolted.

"Hey, are you okay?" the next thing I know is that her face is inches away from mine.

My reflex acted before I realized what I did.

"Do you really need to shove my face away?" She's still in shock on what I did, and so do I.

"I-I'm sorry. But do you really need to bring your face that near?" I blurted out.

"Why? Are you affected to our closeness?" she teases.

"No, you just caught me off guard. I'm not used to people being too close to me." God! Do I really have to tell her that? Stupid self.

"Okay, you say so. But are you feeling that pain just now or what?" she eyed me intently as if telling me to tell her the truth.

"Since the other day? It started when I looked at the window and watched the rain." I can see the change in her expression. What does she have in mind?

"Does this accident have something to do with the rain?" I asked out.

"No." I'm waiting for her to tell me something but I guess that's it.

"So, you already know my fake nickname?" she smiles wider than she ever did before but in contradictory, I frowned more.

"Fake?"

"Yup. Fake. Not true. False. Forg-"

"Okay, I get it. I'm not that dumb." Tsk.

"Oh, I thought you also forgot words." I'm gonna wipe off that sly grin on that face of hers. Just wait.

"By the way, how have you been?" she asked while checking her phone.

"Good, I guess. Tita Ana has been taking good care of me, you owe her a lot." I said while grabbing an apple for the basket she brought. Hmm, taste sweet.

"I know and I have good news." She said as she flashes her widest smile.

"Hmm?" I hope it'll be.

"You're going home in three days. Aren't you happy?" she asked still beaming her smile.

"I will be if I can remember the looks of it and how it feels to be home." I honestly said. I'm not really good at expressing my feelings but I guess right now, I just did. No point in hiding things.
