17

It was a sunny Sunday when I woke up. 


I peeked as I tried to adjust my eyes with the ray of sun that permeate through my glass window. I felt the breeze of the air-con traveling through my legs that peeked from my comforter making me shiver. I was wiggling my fingers and move my feet to adjust inside the duvet and when I did I felt a skin. I smiled as I closed my eyes again.


Nakatulog pala kami.


I felt him moved not a minute later when I closed my eyes. I felt his arms tightened more and pulled me closer to him until there was no space separating my body to his. I felt his hands squeezed the part it touched which was my stomach and it tickled me - of course, I giggled. I felt his breath on the back of my neck and I felt him kissed it. 


Gising na'to


I put my hands at the top of his and drew invisible shapes on it.


Ang clingy talaga kahit kelan ng lalaking 'to.


I sighed and dwell on the feel of his body behind me. His body warmth making me sleepy again. And so I did.

"Church tayo?" He said as he forked another piece of egg. I cooked the famous American breakfast for us.


When I woke up, Apollo was already gone and I immediately knew where he was. I did my morning routine and made my way out the bedroom to see my boyfriend watching cartoons at Nickelodeon wearing nothing but his dark blue boxers. Heaven forbids him to wear a shirt and I'm not complaining. My boyfriend has the body to drool for and I'm only a girl who knows how to thank thy God for blessing my boyfriend a beautiful body.


"Sure. Then let's watch movie later, gusto kong panuorin yung Dunkirk." I said as I pour us strawberry juice. He nodded and we continued our morning breakfast with silence.


As I was washing the dishes which Apollo tried to fight me with, someone knocked on the door. Apollo looked at me as he chugs a water from the fridge that's beside me and raised his eyebrows. I shrugged telling him, I have no idea who that was.


Sure as hell not expecting a visitor at 7 in the morning. Yes, I know, we are some morning people.


"I'll get it."


I watched as he went to the living room and jogged to the door. I saw him peek through the peephole and frowned. 


Who was it? 


I put the last plate in the cabinet and went to the living room while drying my hands. I watched him opened the door and lo and behold, look who's also a morning person.


"Hey man, morning." He said as he went up to me and left Apollo by the door, frowning at him. He kissed my forehead and said, "Morning, gorgeous."


I smiled at him, "Morning. What's up?" I said sitting on the couch and turning off the TV. I saw Apollo walking its way to me and sat beside me. His arms finding their way at the back of my head. 


Chaos smiled. "I missed you." He took a seat across from us.


Apollo was poker-faced.


I cleared my throat, "So, what are you doing here, Herrero?"

Chaos made the 'oh' face and said, "Right. Just came here to give you this." Then I saw him lift a paper bag. "Ngayon na kasi magbubukas yung restau na matagal ko ng inaasikaso and well, here's a token of appreciation for being my friend. These are one of the cuisines that I've worked hard. Think of it as a free taste." He winked at me as I reached for the bag.


Wow.


"Really? Wow, congratulations!" I said as I put the bag on the center table. Apollo's still not talking. "Maybe we'll go there, right Apollo? We love going to newly established restaurants."


And he was still mute.


"Right." He said probably sensing Apollo's indifference. "I better go. I hope di ko kayo naabala." As he stood up and I frowned, following him through the door.


"Oh, no. It's fine. We don't often have friends to come over. Sometimes my sister likes to crash here but she's a bit of a rebel, so no one knows when she's coming. It's good to have visitors once in a while. So, it's really no problem." I glanced at Apollo, who looks grumpy by the way, and watched him get the remote control to open the TV again. 


Kids, that's one way to show how unwelcome someone is to your home. Take notes.


I looked at Chaos and mouthed, sorry. Chaos shook his head and sighed. Smiling adorably. "Well, I hope to see you there sometime. Know that it'll be my treat when you do, though." He coughed. "You too, man."


Apollo only hummed. Parang pilit pa. 


Chaos got up from the couch. I also stood up. I followed him to the door and out sa elevator. We waited for the lift. 


"You'll call me when you need me, right?


"Of course, Chaos."


"Good. Because we need to hang out again. Wag lang lagi si Apollo ang kasama mo. Go out with your friends. Go out with me. Okay?"


"I'll see. I might be busy kasi I have so many things to do at school."


He frowned. "Just call me, okay? I'm free whenever."


"Yeah, yeah. Sige na. Umalis ka na." I pushed him inside the lift when it opened. He grabbed my hand, reached for my forehead and kissed it. "Be a good girl."


I laughed. I went back to my unit. I saw Apollo scowling at me. Nag-iinarte ang baby damulag. 


I laughed even more as I went to him, sitting on his lap. "Oh, oh, oh. I know that face. Don't be like that, baby. No need for that."


He rolled his eyes at me, "I'm going to go and take a shower." He removed my legs from his and stood up. I laughed loudly at his actions. Gods, parang bata to!


"Hala!" He walked to my room. "Nagtatampo ang bata." 


I followed him to my room and watched him grab his towel and looked at me one more time to roll his eyes. Ang gay talaga nito. "Irap irap pa si baby." He went to the bathroom and shut the door loudly, "I love you baby. I love you so much!"


"Shut up!" I heard him shout and it made me laugh even more.


Now, we're even. I shook my head, laughing.
