Milliseconds Of Doom

27

When we arrived in the city, I immediately wrapped my body using my arms. I feel like I'm freezing and I was just wearing my scrubs, I removed my lab coat because it's full of coffee stain and it's also wet.

I gave his coat back to him since I can handle myself but still, the weather here in Tagaytay is not a joke.

"It's cold, Carter..." I whispered out of nowhere while caressing my shoulder down to my arms.

He placed his coat on my shoulder and smiled, "Eto oh,"

"T-thank you," I stuttered and looked away, that smile is distracting.

He invented a sound that made me look at him. He shook his head while clenching his jaw.

"Tinapunan ka pala ng kape 'no, kapal talaga ng mukha nung lalaking mukhang pwet na 'yon— ay mas maayos pa itsura ng pwet ko do'n e."

He rubbed his nape and laughed.

"Ew,"

"Anong ew, gusto mo ba makita?"

I shook my head, "No thanks,"

"Doktor ka naman, marami ka na sigurong nakitang pwet."

I turned my head, "What?"

He just laughed at me and signed 'no'.

Stupid Carter, of course, being a doctor, it is really normal for us to see a butt but still, I don't like talking about it. Especially with him, his mockeries made it sound uncomfortable because he's Carter.

I sighed and looked at the sea of clouds, we are currently beside the road where the fog meets the barrier.

It's fascinating.

"Ngayon ka lang nakapunta dito?"

"No, we have a rest house here," I answered back

"Ay Smith ka nga pala," He laughed

Really, what do you expect from Smith?

But recalling all my memories here, The last visit here in Tagaytay was on my last 25th birthday. We chose this place since it's cozy and we had fun.

I swiveled my body when I heard a sound of a camera, he is smiling while looking at the tiny screen of his digital camera. Did he buy his camera here? How?

"Ang ganda mo," He said while looking straight into my eyes.

I'm about to say a word when he focused the lenses on me, he smiled for the second time that made me rolled my eyes.

A few minutes later, I heard his deep sighs. I turned my attention to see his face but he's emotionless. Later on, he held my shoulder and moved my body to face something, what the hell is he doing.

"Nakikita mo ba nakikita ko?" He raised a question

And I saw what he's saying, a convenience store. A 7/11.
