"What the hell is this, Zakarius?"

Zak turned his gaze away from me. Lumapit siya sa akin at hinawakan ang kamay ko saka hinila ako palabas ng silid na 'yon. Huminga ako nang malalim upang pakalmahin ang sarili ko.

"What are those, Zak? Ano'ng trip mo at ang dami kong pictures doon?!" I asked hysterically.

Zak scratched his nape, he sighed and bit his bottom lip.

"Just forget about that, aalisin ko na rin naman 'yan," sabi na lang niya habang hindi pa rin makatingin nang ayos sa akin. I rolled my eyes at him.

"No, explain that to me! I love you, Zak, but that is honestly creepy," I said and pointed his secret room or whatever the hell he calls it.

"Is it really creepy?" Zakarius asked and scratched nape again. He looks like a lost puppy or what.

"Of course! Kung ikaw kaya ang nasa posisyon ko, nakita mo akong may secret room kuno na punong puno ng pictures mo, ano'ng mararamdaman mo ha?" nakataas-kilay na tanong ko.

"Kikiligin ako," agad na sagot ni Zak. Napaawang na lang ang labi ko saka napakurap. "Fine, Cadence said the same thing when he discovered that, he said it was creepy. I didn't thought it would turned out like that. I'm just collecting your magazines everytime I see one. At first, I just planned to make it a photo album, pero nakakapagod magbuklat nang magbuklat. So I just pasted all of it on the wall for easy viewing. I know this is kinda creepy--" agad kong pinutol ang sasabihin niya.

"Anong kinda?! That is so creepy on so many levels, Zak!" I sighed and massaged my temple.

Napatungo si Zak at halos hindi na talaga ito makatingin nang ayos sa akin.

"I'm sorry if that creep you out. As you can see, originally, it was my room for my ammunitions... b-but, I'm sorry, okay? Tatanggalin ko na ang mga 'yan, promise," sabi na lang niya at humawak sa braso ko.

"Are you obsessed with me or what?" I asked. Zakarius was taken aback with my question.

"No, it's not like that. Ang assuming mo naman."

Gusto ko sanang matawa sa sinabi niya na ang assuming ko, kaso dapat kong panindigan na seryoso ako ngayon.

"That is what that fucking room indicates, Zak. You are obviously obsessed with me, and it's not good," tila nanenermong sabi ko.

"I'm not obsessed with you. I just bought some of your magazines and watched your movies. I mean, I promised you back then that when you became an actress, I'll be your director but everything became fucked up. I know that's creepy, tatanggalin ko na rin naman 'yan, e," paliwanag niya. Napataas ang kilay ko.

"You bought my magazines and watched my movies? Anong dahilan 'yan? May picture doon noong reporter days ko, Zak. Obviously, you stalked me," I accused. His forehead furrowed.

"Hey, I didn't stalk you, I'm not a stalker. Kinuha ko lang sa diyaryo ang mga pictures mo noong reporter ka pa. I didn't stalk you," pagtanggi niya.

I crossed my arms over my chest and raised my eyebrow. I stared at him, Zakarius is still avoiding my gaze. Namumula na ang mukha niya dahil siguro sa hiya.

"But we can't deny the fact that you're crazily in love with me, as in crazily. Remove my pictures in that secret room of yours, Zakarius. Ang creepy talaga, kahit sino maki-creepy-han diyan. Sino ba naman ang matinong tao na magdi-dikit ng sandamakmak na pictures na ganyan?!" panenermon ko sa kanya. Napakamot si Zak sa batok niya.

"Cadence did this too with his favorite Korean idols," bulong niya. Tiningnan ko siya nang masama.

"Magkaiba 'yon," sabi ko na lang at inirapan siya.
