I looked at him in the eyes. Sometimes, I am also wondering kung nagbabago nga ba talaga ang nararamdam ng tao. Base sa mga nakikita at nakakasalamuha ko. I think yes, besides there is no permanent in this world. Lahat ng bagay at pangyayari ay panandalian lamang.

"It is, feelings changes. Like a fine weather," I slowly caress the petal of the flower. "Nagbabago ang nararamdaman ng tao base on his or her experiences." I added and smiled at him.

"How sure are you?" he asked with his baritone voice. I pouted.

"It's just merely my opinion! You are not interrogating me right?"

He let out a many chuckle. "You're too precious to be a criminal,"

"Everyone can be a criminal. Hindi dahil maganda o gwapo ang isang tao, ligtas na sa kalupitan ng mundo." I said before smiling sweetly.

I tapped the space beside me, urging him to seat. He shook his head for disapproval.

"And you are trying to say?" His brow creased and I can't help but to laugh at his question.

"Not because I have the beauty, doesn't mean I have the good personality. Remember, looks can be deceiving." I smirk while he's intently staring at me.

"So criminal ka?"

Sa puntong ito, malakas akong tumawa. Nakatingala pa rin ako sa kaniya because I am sitting while he's standing.

"Do I look like a criminal?" I fired back.

"Exactly, that's my point. Sadyang, pinapahaba mo lang ang usapan." Aniya, may himig ng pagkairita.

"But what if I am?" I curiously asked. His lips turn into thin line. I then bite my lips. Kailan kaya siya magiging pangit sa paningin ko? "I am not afraid though, I have you." Pagbibiro ko.

He cocked his head sideways. "You are not certain if I will bail you out on jail." Napangisi ako sa naging sagot niya.

"You will for sure. Right kuya?"
I saw his eyes darkened, for I don't know why. I tapped my finger on the chair. Completely satisfied with his reaction.

"You will defend me in court if the time comes," I trailed without breaking the eye contact. Nakatitig lang ako sa mukha niya. His perfectly angled jaw, thin lips, pointed nose, thick lashes and eye brows. Plus his hazel eyes that captures my interest. "You will do that, because I'm your baby." I continued.

Siya mismo ang nagsabi niyan. Kaya dapat lang 'no! And in fact he study law, kaya natural lang na ipaglaban niya ako. Saglit siyang natigilan like he didn't expect me to say those words.

He cleared his throat. "I-If, if that time comes. I will go berserk just to prove your innocence."

Ngumiti ako sa naging sagot niya. He looks dangerously serious right now, with his clenched jaw.

Does he take my question seriously?

"Wait, I am just kidding okay? I'm not criminal or what!" I chuckled.

Hindi siya sumagot at mabilis akong iniwan. I pouted ang played with my fingers. Nagbibiro lang naman ako ah! Hindi niya naman kailangan seryosohin iyon. Napailing nalang ako bago tumayo at pumasok ng bahay. I remember hindi ko pa naayos ang mga gamit ko.

Pagdating ko sa living room, walang tao. Saan naman kaya ang room ko?
Umupo muna ako sa single sofa and decided to brows my Instagram. Hindi ko alam kung ilang minuto akong nakaupo, good thing ay dumaang maid.
