Fast forward: October 22, 2021. 

"Gabbo wake up!" Coleen shouted at hinablot yung kumot na bumabalot kay Gabb. "Hoy gising naaaaa!"

"Eto na! Kailangan sumigaw?" Reklamo niya saka bumangon at nag kusot kusot ng mata. "Bakit ba ang aga aga mong mambulabog ha?" Ganiyan sila magsagutan, kala mo mag barkada. Tapos ang haharot naman kapag nasa labas.

"Aish, stop the talk. Maligo ka na dun." Naniningkit matang utos ni Coleen.

"Maligo ka na dun bla bla." Gabb mimicked Coleen's voice.

"What did you say?" Coleen scoffed  and placed her hands on her waist. 

"Nothing, bye bye!" Gabb said at dali daling pumasok ng cr. "Bu-butter Coconut, Bu-butter coconuttttttt!" Pa kantang asar ni Gabb nang makapasok siya sa cr.

"Bahala ka sa buhay mo! Pupuntahan ko nalang si Josh." Coleen said at akmang mag aayos na ng kama nang biglang..

Gabb pinned her on the wall. "What did you say?" She whispered beneath her breath. Ramdam ni Coleen ang init ng hininga ni Gabb, it sent some shivers down to her spine.

"I-I uhmm, I'm just k-kidding!" She exclaimed nervously, ganun parin ang epekto ni Gabb sakaniya everytime na maglalapit sila. 

"You said something... don't you?" Gabb whispered sexily, she leaned closer at dahan dahang binugaan ng hangin ang leeg ni Coleen. The latter swallowed an invisible lump, butterflies were going wild again. 

"Stop that, baka hindi tayo makapasok.." Coleen mumbled.

Natawa naman si Gabb. "Sinong tinakot mo?" Gabb whispered sexily and gently licked Coleen's earlobe.

"Aish, G-Gabbo! Maligo ka na dunn para hindi tayo ma late!" She slightly pushed Gabb. The latter chuckled and kissed the top of her head before entering the bathroom. "Make it fast!" Coleen said.

"I'll try, or maybe you can help me?" Gabb said and peaked at the door. Coleen rolled her eyes and pushed Gabb's face back inside.

"Madami kang nalalaman, bilisan mo na." She shook her head and fixed their bed. 

Gabb chuckled and started removing her clothes. Habang naliligo siya, hindi niya maiwasang isipin yung mangyayari after 2 years. Itatanan ba niya si Coleen or what, pero nanaig ang kaisipan niyang huwag pangunahan ang hinaharap. Who knows what will happen? No one on earth would.

She closed her eyes as she felt the cold water running through her body.

"I already accepted the inevitable.."

"Gabb are you done?" Coleen knocked on the bathroom door. 

"I'm over here." 

"Holy shi-- what the hell could you possibly doing in there?!" Sigaw ni Coleen at dali daling tumakbo papunta sa bintana para hilain si Gabb. Parehas silang bumagsak sa sahig, Gabb was the one who stood up first. Inalalayan naman niya si Coleen.

"Why?" Gabb asked with a huge smile on her face.

"Damn you! Paano kung nahulog ka diyan?!" Sigaw ni Coleen at dinuro pa si Gabb. She was sitting by the window kasi, imagine? 27th floor and then you'll just sit there as if your death won't depend on that situation. Dun siya tumambay pagkatapos maligo, nasa kitchen kasi si Coleen that time, preparing breakfast.

Gabb smiled and hugged Coleen.

"The audacity, Gabrielle. I hate it." Coleen's tears fell. 

"I just want to discern the sunrise, ang ganda kasi." She whispered and kissed Coleen on top of her head.
