Hi there! This will be the last chapter of Courts and Constructions. The next part will be the Epilogue. Id you reached this part, I would like to thank you deeply. Enjoy!


"Good morning." namamaos pa ang boses ni Lex nang batiin niya ako. Ipinikit ko ulit ang mata ko at ngumiti.


"Morning." bati ko pabalik. My body still aches because of the love making we did last night. It's been years since I did it with me, hell, it's been years when I did it.


We stayed in bed until noon and just cuddled. Pagkatapos namin magtanghalian ay napagdesisyunan naming gumala sa siyudad at tumingin ng pwedeng bilhin. 


May pinapabili rin kasi sa'kin si Navi na sapatos dahil mas mura daw 'yon dito, sabi niya pa ay samahan ko na rin ng mochi at tea.


Pumunta naman kami sa lugar na kung tawagin ay 'old street'. We bought a sky lantern and wrote our dedications and wishes before lighting it up and releasing it to the sky. Nagpakuha pa kami ng litrato bago 'yon pakawalan.


"What?" Nakita ko kasing nakatitig siya sa akin habang naglalakad kami pabalik sa hotel. Umiling naman siya at ngumiti.


"Weird mo pa rin." sabi ko at umirap.


"Hindi lang ako makapaniwala."


"Na?" tanong ko.


"Na ayos na ulit ang lahat. That I have you again." hindi nawawala ang ngiti niya.


"Well, you have to get used to it, wala ka nang magagawa." I shrugged. He stopped and looked at me while smiling. He leaned closer to me then kissed me on the lips.


"Welcome back, Engr. Cervantes!" sabay-sabay na bati ng mga empleyado nang pumasok si dad sa opisina. Tumango naman siya at nagpasalamat sa mga naroon.


He's going to start working again today but we're still keeping a close eye to his health. Lex stays at my house very often, he sleeps with me especially when his schedule is not hectic.


I saw Lex calling so I immediately answered it. He called this morning and we greeted each other a 'Happy Valentine's' already.


[Hey...] I heard how tired he is with the tone of his voice. He might be loaded with paperwork these past few days. Ilang araw na rin kasi siyang hindi nakakpunta sa bahay dahil maraming kailangang asikasuhin sa opisina.


"Hi, how are you?" malumanay kong tanong. Narinig ko ang buntong hininga niya sa kabilang linya. Siguro'y ilang araw na siyang puyat dahil sa trabaho.


[I think we have to cancel our reservation tonight...] he said with a disappointed tone. Dapat kasi ay magdi-dinner kami mamaya, 'yon ang date namin ngayong Valentine's lalo na't busy kami sa kanya-kanyang trabaho.


[I'm so sorry. Babawi ako, Jo... sobrang busy kasi talaga ngayong linggo rito...] dadgdag niya pa.
