"Tigil-tigilan mo ko Mira." Rheis hissed while Mira is giggling. 

"Mag-li-live in na kayo ni Sir Clarence eh." Hagikgik ni Mira na agad namang inirapan ni Rheis. Nakauwi na sila sa kani-kanilang bahay and Rheis is busy packing up her things dahil lilipat na siya sa condo ni Clarence. 

"Shut up, we're not! So ganun din ba ang tawag sa inyo ni Boss Hansel?" 

"Well, hindi naman mutual ang feelings namin, pero di ba nga gusto ka ni Sir Clarence? Lantaran kaya ang panlalandi niya sayo." Mira giggled. 

"He's a d*mn playboy, lahat naman ng babae gusto niya." Rheis rolled her eyes as she zips her bag. 

"Uy! Ang bitter naman nito! Parang hindi naman!" 

"Tsss you didn't see what I saw." Rheisanne sighed. "Stop matchmaking us Mira, I admit I like him but I cannot give up on this mission, priority ko pa rin ang matanggap ng mga elders bilang ako, bilang babae and you know---"

"Shhh I know exactly how you feel okay? Pero tao lang din naman tayo Rheisanne, it's okay to be selfish sometimes." Mira stroke her back. 

"I know." She smiled softly at her before hugging her tight. 

"Mag-iingat ka dun? Wag kang maging marupok." Miracle chuckled. 

"Ikaw lang ang marupok sating dalawa baliw." Rheisanne laughed and pulled up her bag. Lumabas na sila ng kwarto ni Miracle wearing their masks and aviators. 

Naabutan naman nila ang dalawa na nakaupo sa couch at seryosong nag-uusap tungkol sa council. Natigilan ang mga ito at napasulyap sa kanila. Clarence immediately plastered a smile when he saw Rheisanne. 

"Are you ready Rheis?" He smiled widely at her. 

"Yes sir." 

"Oh come on! You can call me Clarence."

"It's against our rules---"

"You'll be under me Rheis, and I'll be the only rule you'll follow." Clarence said with a hint of intimidation. Nagkatinginan naman si Rheis at Mira at sabay na napalunok. 

"O-Okay, Clarence." Rheis gulped. Ngumiti sa kanya si Clarence as he walks towards her at took her bag from her. Aangal pa sana si Rheisanne but Clarence gave off that intimidating smile again.

"Pano, mauna na kami? Bye Mira." Clarence smiled at her and Miracle just bowed her head. Lumabas na sila ng condo at hindi pa rin naaalis ang tingin ni Hansel kay Mira na bahagyang nailang naman sa klase ng titig nito. 

"It's time to change my wound dressing, Miracle." He said authoritatively. 

"O-Opo boss, kukunin ko lang yung panlinis." She said and went directly to her room to get the kit. 

Nakaupo si Hansel sa couch at nanonood ng TV pagkalabas ni Mira ng kwarto niya. 

"P-Pakitanggal po yung shirt niyo." She gulped. Sumulyap sa kanya si Hansel saglit before removing his shirt. Miracle silently made a sign of the cross upon seeing Hansel's bare back again. 

She's wearing gloves pero nanginginig pa rin ang mga kamay niya sa paghawak ng bulak na dinadampi sa sugat nito. Good thing Hansel cannot see her shaking and sweating in nervousness. 

Halos pahilom na rin ang mga sugat nito kaya puro wound patches na lang ang nilalagay niya. 

"It's done boss." She said sabay lapag ng first aid kit sa center table. Hansel cleans his wound on his chest, he just asked Miracle's help dahil hindi niya maabot yung sugat niya sa likod. 

"You haven't clean all my wounds yet." Hansel said ng akmang aalis na si Mira. 

Natigilan ito at agad na napalingon sa kanya. 

"B-Boss?" 

"Do I really need to repeat myself Mira?" Pagalit na sambit nito. Mira pressed her lips tightly and took the kit and sat besides Hansel. Ngayon kitang-kita na ni Hansel ang panginginig nga mga kamay nito as she prepares the disinfectant. 

"Why are you avoiding me?" He asks her. Agad na napatingin si Mira sa kanya at umiling. 

"Boss hindi po." 

"You are, dati-rati kapag kausap kita nakatingin ka ng diretso sakin but now lagi ka ng nag-iiwas ng tingin. And now you're even afraid to touch me." He hissed. 

Mira bit her lower lip. Paano niya ba sasabihin kay Hansel na hindi na niya kinakaya ang titig nito sa kanya. He used to not look at her for long, pero ngayon bawat kilos niya titig na titig siya and she's getting very conscious about it. She's starting to melt. 

"If you'll really that afraid to touch, then I won't force you." He sighed and took the kit away from her. He slightly touched her hand and it almost took her breath away, buti na lang naka-gloves siya. 

"H-hindi naman sa ganun boss. I-I am just not used to a male's body." Miracle breathed deeply as she tries to hide her embarrassment by lowering her head. Hindi umimik si Hansel na ipinagtaka nito. 

She raised her head and saw him fixing the kit habang bahagyang namumula ang mukha nito. 

"I'm sorry about that." Hansel cleared his throat and put on his shirt. "H-Hindi mo naman kasi sinabi. I'll clean my wounds in my room." He said and took the kit with him paakyat sa kwarto nito. 

HANSEL took a nap after cleaning his wounds. Halos lagpas lunch time na ng magising siya kaya agad siyang bumaba to see what Miracle cooked for him. He went pass the balcony kung saan naabutan niya si Miracle na nagsasampay ng mga nilabhan nito wearing her three piece suit. 

Siya na ang labanderang naka-three piece suit at naka-leather shoes pa. 

Hansel went to the kitchen and saw the food served on the table. He had started eating ng pumasok na si Mira sa loob mula sa balcony habang bitbit ang walang lamang laundry basket. 

"Mira... Do you like movies?" He suddenly asked her. Natigilan si Mira at napalingon sa kanya. 

"O-Okay lang naman po boss." She said and slowly put the laundry basket behind her.

"Good, change your clothes. We're going to watch a movie."
