Celestaire's POV

NAKANGUSO AKONG NAKATINGIN KAY Ralph at Blaze na ngayon ay nagba-basketball. It's only four in the morning, but they woke up just for this. I yawned as I watch them play.

Kakauwi lang ni Ralph kagabi, pero 'eto siya naglalaro kaysa magpahinga. Nagising ako kanina dahil uminom ako ng tubig, but I saw them awake and talking about something.

Nang lumapit naman ako ay hinalikan lang ako ni Ralph at sinama na lang ako sa basketball court na ito. I really don't how basketball works. I watch, but don't really get how it is played.

Si Ate at Kuya talaga ang mahilig sa basketball. Ate literally knows every game. Dati ay pinapanood ko pa silang dalawa maglaro. Naiinggit pa ako noon dahil bawal ako mapagod, but when I got better it wasn't really my thing.

"Break muna, dude!" Ralph said.

Tumango si Blaze at shinoot muna ang bolang hawak niya. It went in the ring. Hindi na ako nagulat dahil magaling talaga si Blaze sa basketball. Siya nga raw ang captain noong highschool kaya hindi na ako nagtaka.

Lumapit si Ralph sa akin at inabutan ko siya ng towel. He smiles and wiped his sweat. He took off his jersey and placed it beside me. I gave him water and wiped his back.

Napangiwi naman si Blaze at tinali ang sariling buhok. I saw Ralph smirked and put the tumbler down. "Kapag inggit, pikit."

"Tss. Fuck you."

"Dati ikaw ang ganyan sakin." He said and gave him a annoying smile. "You are much a baby to Celestine before. You pout as she glare at you, while wiping your sweat after a game. Dude, we just roll our eyes as we watch you two. The love and hate couple." Sabi ni Ralph.

I hit his stomach. "Shut up."

"Aww, my lover wants the love and hate troupe too?" Pang-aasar niya.

I glared at him. Ralph just smiled and kissed my nose, which caught me off guard. I smiled sweetly and hugged me so tight.

"I'm sorry, I just missed you." Sabi niya.

"I missed you too, mahal." Sagot ko. "But no need to tease."

He chuckled and Blaze rolled his eyes. "I'm out of here."

"Bye." Pang-aasar ni Ralph. I pouted at him and he just gave me a smile.

"Tara na. The sun is rising and I'm kinda hungry, let's go back." Pag-aaya ko.

Tumango siya at kinuha ang bola na nasa tabi ng bench. I took some of the stuffs and he took the other stuffs, and we both left the court. Naabutan pa namin si Blaze sa paglalakad pabalik, dahil medyo wala siya sa sarili habang naglalakad.

When we got back, we saw Celine with some eco bags. Naalala ko na palengke day niya ngayon. Looks like she's alone, because Donna usually comes with her. Suddenly I came up with an idea.

I looked at Ralph. "Sama tayo kay Celine."

"Where?"

"Palengke!"

"Sure, sama ka Blaze?" Tanong niya kay Blaze. Blaze looked at me and looked at Celine who is closing the gate. Ralph tsked. "Sasama na yan."

Celine was walking at our way, when I ran to her. "Sama kami!"

Nagulat pa siya. "Sure kayo? Kaya ko naman.."
