At first, it's impossible for Cairo to sleep through Gavreel's snoring, but as the days pass and their time together grows shorter, he starts to wonder just how much he'd miss the sound when he leaves.

Every night, Cairo kisses Gavreel's face on the pillow before falling asleep, hoping that Gavreel will join him in his dreams.

"Uy, kailan ka naman naging softie?" asks Pearl with a teasing look, and Gavreel turns away with a laugh because he never thought he would fall this hard for Cairo, fall this hard for anyone over a silly game.

Gavreel wipes his tears and opens another bottle, drinking until the room's spinning because it's the only way he can forget the anger in Cairo's eyes, the sharpness in his voice, the sound of his own heart breaking into a million pieces.

Even though Gavreel knows that Cairo won't answer him back, this is all he can do to show Cairo that he's always there for him, and he takes a deep breath before turning on his camera and with the biggest smile he can muster, says, "Morning baby, kain ka nang breakfast mo, ah?"

"Tumigil ka na nga, baby, napaka-epal mo talaga," Cairo says, pulling Gavreel's fingers off his ears, and Gavreel laughs and snuggles closer, pouting, "Ikaw naman baby, naglalambing lang naman kasi isang linggo lang kitang kasama," and Cairo tries to hide the guilt washing over him by smiling and pinching Gavreel's ear instead.
