"Beh! I miss you!" Amber exclaimed as soon as she saw him. Sitting comfortably on the lobby's couch, is her handsome boyfriend, Larry.
He looked at her, startled, with a bouquet of yellow roses on his lap.

Amber tried to hide her curiosity when she noticed the color of the flowers he was holding. She knew that he knows how much she love orange roses and not yellow.

She faked a smile and walked towards him. Her heart ached when she felt he was uneasy when he draped an arm over her.

"Anong ginagawa mo rito? Na-surprise naman ako dito ha!" She said and got the bouquet from him. She pretended to sniff the roses and looked at him in the eyes, waiting for him to answer.

"I wasn't able to see you last time due to some trouble at work. So, I decided to visit you here." He said coolly. Suddenly, he stood up and straightened his coat and slacks.
"Tara na?"

"Saan tayo?" Amber asked, confused.

"Basta, sumama ka na lang." He grinned and winked at her. He held her hand and they walked out of the building.

It was already past two in the afternoon and she couldn't care less.
