Hindi pa sumisinag ang araw ay umalis na agad kami ni Zayn. We took my car at siya na ang nag drive. Dinala ko lahat ng maleta ko kasi maglalayas ako sa bahay.

I don't even know why my parents blurted out that bullshit, but I have no choice but to refuse to obey their order.

We arrived at the condominium I invested on a year ago without my parents knowing. Hinulugan ko 'to using my own money sa past temporary job ko noon habang nagaaral pa ako.

Nagpatulong kami iakyat ang gamit ko sa staff at sa pinaka tuktok kami ng condo. Well... I bought a penthouse. Isn't that fun? Hehe.

Mamayang hapon pa daw kami pupunta sa bahay nila Zayn but I'm nervous because what if his dad have the same reaction upon hearing my parent's name? What if he has the same motive as my parents?

"You didn't tell me you own a penthouse?" he said in an amazed voice. He continued observing the place after he placed my things on the corner. The air was cold and I was standing in front of the glass railings. Tinabihan naman ako ni Zayn at niyakap.

"Fresh start with you." he said and I gave him a hug.

"May debit card ka?" tanong ko and he nodded. "Why?"

"Wala, can I borrow it? Transfer ko muna lahat ng pera ko doon for the mean time before I get my debit card approval. Would that be okay sayo?" I asked and he smiled.

"Of course love, I'll send you the details later. 'Di ka ba inaantok?" he asked.

"I am tired but I want to watch the sunrise with you first." I told him and he nodded. We sat down and dipped our feet into the cold water of the pool and held hands.

Most genuine moment with the two of us.

After the sunrise we went straight to bed and woke up 4 hours later. I showered and put on some mom jeans and a red cropped top before we went out to buy some groceries.

We have to fill up our fridge and pantry. We've gone to the grocery and we took two big carts, I'll buy kitchen essentials while siya na bahala sa snacks and drinks.

Kumuha muna ako ng stainless pots, pans and also a non-stick one. Then I got a chopping board, knife, kitchen utensils, cups, bowls and plates. I also bought baking tools because I have an oven sa bahay which I really want to try.

Wala pa akong ibang pagkaing nabili at halos puno na agad ang cart ko, pero pera naman ni daddy gagamitin ko ngayon eh since I still have access to it.

Kumuha na rin ako ng maraming organizers para sa pantry para madali na lang ayusin mamaya sa bahay.

After an hour of going around the supermarket ay nagkita kami ni Zayn sa counter at puno rin yung cart niya grabe. I don't care how much this will cost so I'm not scared to see the total.

It took them almost 20 minutes to punch the items and pack them sa boxes.

"The total po is P15,435. Cash or card po?"

Inabot ko sa kanya ang card ko at inilagay nila sa isang cart ang limang boxes ng nagrocery namin. Inilagay namin ang napamili sa kotse bago pumasok sa mall at pumunta sa furniture store.

I got 3 desks at 2 tall bookshelves para sa office namin. Bumili rin kami ng office chairs at yung ibang gamit ay ipapadeliver na lang sa condo since di kasya sa kotse ko. Pabalik na sana kami sa kotse nang madaan kami sa power mac.

Agad akong tiningnan ng masama ni Zayn, "Bab don't, think practical hmm?" he said but I was stubborn at pumasok na lang din. Napilitan si Zayn pumasok at ang una kong nakita ay ang iPad. May nagassist agad sa akin. I ended up getting an iPad pro with an iPencil and magic keyboard. Aayusin na sana ang payment nang makita ko pa ang iWatch nila.

Lord sorry po kung gagastos ako ng sobrang dami ngayong araw. Love you po!

I convinced Zayn for us to have matching watch at pumayag naman din siya. "Napaka gastos mo Caitlyn, you're lucky I love you." he told me while waiting on the corner. "Yeah, you love me hehe." I said and he just covered my face playfully.

"Ma'am please sign this contract po regarding the billing and the warranty po. The total po is P140,000. May discount po kayo na five thousand since we saw the account and you're a loyal customer po." the lady smiled and I reciprocated the smile.

"Thank you po!" they told us before leaving the store. Pagka-sakay naman namin ng kotse agad pinitik ni Zayn ang noo ko.

"That's for wasting money for things that you won't even use naman." agad naman kumunot noo ko at tiningnan siya ng masama he sighed before he kissed my forehead. "That's for being the best girl in the entire world." bawi niya at sapat na iyon.

Nakarating na kami sa bahay at inayos ko ang kitchen at pantry namin storing every utensil, bowls and plates sa cupboard and organizing the food we bought.

Zayn on the other hand was assembling the desk and bookshelves for us in our office/study area.

After 2 hours we both slammed ourselves on the couch and watched netflix. After a few minutes I cooked lunch for us and we both ate.

"Sarap mo magluto," Zayn complimented my cook and I smiled at him. "Pwede na mag-asawa?" biro ko and he smirked.

"Pwede ko na maging asawa."

Naginit ang pisngi ko pero agad itong nawala. After eating we slept for about 4 hours before we showered preparing to go Zayn's dad.

I wore a simple black puff dress and white flats.

I also braided my hair and put flower pins on it for design. Nang makita ako ni Zayn he was stunned. "You look beautiful, bab." he told me and I just smiled before looking at the mirror. I called him for us to take mirror pictures before we decided to go to their house.

Sabi ni Zayn na magcommute na lang kami papunta doon dahil plano niyang dalhin ang kotse niya sa condo.

We arrive at a very secluded place pero mukhang private siya at kakaunti lang ang may access. Malaki din ang bahay nila, mas malaki pa sa amin.

When we were at the front door he turned to me, "I have to let you know that me and my dad have a love and hate relationship. So I might lose my temper later if he says something bad about you, okay?" he informed me and I nodded.

Bumukas ang malaking pinto at grabe nakabukas pala ang aircon nila, sobrang lamig eh. Agad humigpit ang hawak ko sa kamay niya dahil maraming tao doon and it seems to be the care takers of the house. Marami kaking dinaanan na kwarto bago marating ang office ng kanyang ama.

Walang katukang pumasok si Zayn sa office ng kanyang ama at nang makita siya ng isang lalaki ay agad siyang niyakap. Napilitan naman si Zayn na yakapin ito.

His father turned to me and gave his hand for a handshake. "You must be Zayn's new girlfriend? Caitlyn, right? Pleasure to meet you." he formally greeted me and I smiled before talking. "The pleasure's mine, sir."

"Call me dad instead, since you are my son's girlfriend and hoping soon to be wife." his father winked at nakita kong may binulong si Zayn sa kanya at tumango tango ang kanyang ama. Maya maya ay lumapit sa akin si Zayn at hinawi ang buhok na nakaharang sa aking mukha.

"Mauna ka na sa kwarto ko mahal, second floor last room on the left haul. You can get my luggages and bags sa upper part ng closet ko start packing my stuff if you want." he kissed my forehead before smiling. "I love you." he mouthed and I smiled before telling him the same.

Sinunod ko ang sinabi ni Zayn and I found myself opening the door of his luxurious room. It was clean with a white, gray, brown colors and the room was so clean you can't see a single spot.

Agad kong kinuha ang mga maleta niya at binuksan ito isa isa. The first luggage had all of his shirts and some of his underwear. The second luggage had his underwear, sando and other work out clothes. The third one has all of his pants, shorts and other bottoms you can possibly think off.

I wad busy folding his sweaters to put in the last luggage when I heard loud footsteps coming towards the room. The door slammed open at pagtingin ko it was Zayn and I was shock to see him with a busted lip. Agad akong lumapit sa kanya and the moment he saw me he immediately tried to calm himself down.

"What happened?" I asked and he shook his head. "Nothing important, but what's important is we'll leave this hellhole right after we finish packing." he said and started folding aggressively. I was concerned so I sat down next to him and placed my hand onto his left cheek and turned his face to mine. I slowly pulled him and gave him a long soft kiss on the lips.

That calmed his tensed features down. "Look, whatever happened earlier I know you'll get over with the problem. I'm here okay? I love you, hmm." I told him and he smiled before giving me one quick hug.

We finished packing his clothes at kinuha niya naman ang isang box at doon inilagay ang mga makakapal niyang law books at grabe sobrang dami non. Marami ding folders, notebooks ang mga dinala niya pati na rin stationary items for note taking.

Nang matapos ay isa isa naming inilagay ang mga gamit sa elevator at nang makababa na kami ay tinulungan na kami ng ibang katulong para ilagay ang gamit sa kotse ni Zayn. I was amazed sa kotse niya it was a Chevrolet Colorado in color red. And damn it looks sick. The mugs were painted matte black and the bumper was also customized.

Mayroon ding letter Z sa likod ng kotse niya pero nagulat ako ng buksan ko ang passenger seat ay may sticker na agad na nakalagay sa tapakan. It says 'Seat taken by Caitlyn.' when I turned to him he scratched the back of his neck.

"I may or may not have called someone to customize it before we arrived back here in Manila." he told me and I just laughed before sitting. Nang makaalis na kami sa subdivision ay nagcarpool na kami. We were having fun not until matulala ako processing everything that has happened today.

I made some deductions on my mind before speaking, "You know let's be honest with each other. Both of our families wants us to separate, right?" I made a wild guess and he sighed heavily before nodding.

"But let's promise each other one thing. We'll stay together even if the world wants us not to." I told him and he placed his hand on the inner part of my thighs and rubbed it.

"I promise you Nicole, nothing would stop us and separate. Mahal na mahal kita, higit pa sa akala mo."
