CHAPTER 22: MR. ONE-LINER

LUNA'S POV

Present day...

Naabutan ako ni Magnus na nakatayo sa gitna ng sala habang nakatingin sa painting na nasa harapan ko. I'm already dressed for work, but I saw the painting that arrived yesterday that I forgot about because I was too tired.

"Should I put this on display here?" I asked him when he stopped beside me.

"No."

Iginala ko ang mga mata ko sa paligid. It's my intentional decision not to make the place look busy. Masyado ng maraming gamit ang mga opisina namin ni Magnus dito man o sa mga kompanya namin na gusto ko ng isang lugar na hindi masyadong nalulunod sa gamit.

"I agree. It's too red and blue." It's the painting by Darius Benitez that Magnus bought during Zachary's event. It's beautiful, but I don't think I want it in the living room. "Maybe in the bedroom-"

"Definitely not."

"Sa office ko?"

"No."

Kunot ang noo na nilingon ko siya. "Lahat ba ng suggestion ko tatanggihan mo?"

"No-" Nagpakawala siya ng malalim na hininga ng napaangat ang kilay ko. "Put it inside the bathroom."

Nalukot ang ilong ko. "That's the worst suggestion I've ever heard. You bought that painting for thousands of pesos, and you're going to put it in the bathroom?"

"I don't like it."

"Why not? It's pretty, and it reminds me of myself." Tinuro ko ang painting at pagkatapos ay itinuro ko naman ang sarili ko. "It's a moon, and I'm Luna."

"It reminds me of your ex-boyfriend's face."

"Si Zachary?" Tinignan ko ang painting. "Hindi naman siya mukhang buwan."

He let out a sigh again. Nilapitan niya ang painting at kinuha iyon. For a single moment, I was scared for it. Mukha kasing madudurog iyon sa mga kamay ni Magnus. Or it will get run over by a couple of cars once he decides to toss it out the window.

"Sa fifth floor," he declared firmly.

"Ooh, that's not a bad idea. But why there?"

Dala iyon na naglakad siya papunta ng elevator. "Eat your breakfast. I'll be right back."

"You didn't answer my question!" I called out to him.

Humarap siya sa akin nang makapasok siya ng elevator. A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth. "So you wouldn't have a chance to look at it too much."

Naiwan akong nakatulala lang sa ngayon ay sarado ng elevator. It's only the beginning of the day, and it's already starting on a weird note.

Hilot ang sentido na naglakad ako papunta sa kusina. Katulad ng sabi ni Magnus ay mayroon na ngang nakahanda roon na breakfast. I felt my stomach grumble when I saw that he had prepared Eggs Florentine for me.
