I woke up with heavy head the next day. Bumangon na ako at dumiretso sa banyo para maligo at magtootbrush. Paglabas ko may nakita akong kapirasong papel sa tabi ng lamp shade. It says "Meet me at the terrace." Alam kong kay Galvin galing ang sulat na iyon. Wala naman kasing mapang-api sa akin maliban sakanya. I dried my hair first then I went outside. 

I don't have a freaking idea where is that terrace thing located kaya nagkandaligaw ligaw ako sa tatlong palapag na bahay na ito. Nakailang akyat pababa na ako pero hindi ko talaga makita. Wala din akong nakakasalubong na kasambahay na pwede ko pagtanungan. On my third round of going down from the second floor I saw Helena walking inside from the main door. She looked so good in the morning. I stopped on my track and stare at her for a second. She might sense my presence because she looked up at me. She smiled instantly when our eyes met. 

"Good morning hermosa." She greeted with heavy Spanish accent and smiled tenderly at me.

"Good morning Tita." I replied as I return her smile. Bahagya pa akong nag-bow. 

"Come." She gestured me to follow her. Humakbang ako ng mabilis pababa ng hagdan at sumunod sakanya. 

"We are very sorry we can't join you both for breakfast. We have a flight to catch." She said as we walk going to their backyard I think. I was just staring at her back until we reach the back side of their house. I looked around and saw a small terrace na nakaharap sa oblong shape na swimming pool. It wasn't exactly the terrace that I have in mind because it was more on improvised platform to accommodate someone a better view of the surroundings, but nevertheless it's a terrace. This must be the fucking place Galvin is telling me on his note.

"I'm sorry?"I asked as I was trying to take in all the information. Helena glanced at me and smiled. She grabbed my hand and hold it tightly. 

"Don't worry. You'll be fine here." She said assuring me.  She let go of my hands and pinched both of my cheeks lightly. Bahagya akong namula. Hindi ako sanay na may kumukurot sa pisngi ko ng madahan. Hindi ko din tuloy alam kung ano ang magiging reaction ko. When I looked at her she was looking on her left side already kaya tumingin din ako doon. I saw Galvin helping his Dad putting the luggage inside the car's compartment. He's still in his grey cotton pajama and white loose shirt and.....bumaba ang mata ko sa mga paa niya. He's barefoot. Parang hinila siya pababa ng kama niya at dumiretso na kaagad sa garage kaya hindi na naisipang magsuot ng tsinelas. He's looking adorable though. Bumalik ang mata ko sa damit niya. Kung mayroon mang trait ang isang lalaki na gustong-gusto ko, 'yun ay ang mga sumusuot ng plain white shirt. Napakalinis kasi tingnan. Napaka tidy. And it's really a "pogi points" to me I must add. Looking at Galvin wearing that plain shirt I was talking make me want to drool. What a pleasant scenario in the morning, right? I touched my lips. Baka kasi maglaway ako. Nakakahiya. 

"You boys done there?" Helena asked the two. Unang lumingon sa amin ang papa ni Galvin who made a thumb up sign. Sunod na tumingin sa amin si Galvin. Parang may mga dagang biglang nagsipagtakbuhan sa dibdib ko nang magtama ang mga mata namin.

"Morning Mom." He greeted pero sa akin siya nakatingin. He surveyed me from head to toe and vice-versa. He didn't say a word but I can see some recognition in his eyes. Patay malisya kong tiningnan ang suot ko. I am wearing white high waist short paired with navy blue crop top. It reveals my fine torso. Uhmm...ang sexy ko pala. I smiled silently. When he finished arranging the luggage humarap siya ulit sa amin ng Mama niya at nameywang pero hindi parin umaalis ang mga mata niya sa akin. Naku-conscious na tuloy ako the way siya tumingin. 

"Claire darling? Are you with me?" Helena let go of my hand and hold both of my cheeks.  Napatingin ako sa Mama ni Galvin ng wala sa oras.

"Why are you so red? I mean, why are you blushing?" She asked at pinakatitigan ako.
