The incessant ringing of her phone woke her up from deep slumber. With eyes closed, she reached her phone from her bedside table and answered the call without looking at the caller id.

Hello...

Rise and shine, pretty lady!
Good morning! Wake up na po!

She didn't have to look at her phone screen to check the name of the caller. She knew exactly who the owner of that deep baritone voice is from the bottom of her heart. So with a smile etched on her face, she answered him.

Jeez, RJ! Ang aga pa..
hindi pa nga nag-aalarm
yung phone ko eh..

Bangon ka na! Sabi mo last
night maaga ka papasok kasi
may usapan kayo ni Sheena diba?
7am na po, miss MVP!

9am pa yun eh... it's too early...

Sige na, bangon na please...
para makakain ka ng breakfast
before you go...

Eeehhh antok pa ko...

Gusto mo ba puntahan pa kita
dyan para bumangon ka na?

W-what?! No! I mean, sabi mo
kagabi 8am ang class mo diba?
You should be preparing by now.

Nakaayos na po ako... pwede
na kitang puntahan dyan kung
di ka pa babangon.. magkalapit
lang naman yung condo natin eh..

Gahd! Kulit mo noh?!
No need na! Okay na,
babangon na po ako...

Yey! Babangon na po
yung MVP ko...

W-what did you say?

Sabi ko yes, bangon na
po Miss MVP...

Ah, parang iba kasi dinig ko eh!
Eto na, nakabangon na po ako..

Weh?! Promise?

Yep, swear!

Okay, I trust your word.
Sige, prep ka na po ha.
Text you later, magbreakfast
muna kami ni Josh.

Okies... pakabusog ka ha...

Okay po... kilos na ha...
para makapagbreakfast ka
din before class...

Opo... thank you sa
wake up call, RJ..

You're welcome, Nicki.
Ikaw pa ba?!

Sige na, kumain ka
na dyan. Laters...

Okay. Laters baby.

The call abruptly ended and Nicki was left wondering if what she heard was right.

Did he just call me baby or
mali ako ng dinig? Hays, RJ!
Why do you do this to me?!

She put down her phone on the bed and said her morning prayer before she stood up and went to prepare for the day.

As soon as she came back from her bath, she heard her phone ringing again. She sprinted towards her bed and immediately answered her phone.

Ay, ang kulit mo po! Eto na,
nakaligo na po ako...

"Whaaaaat?! B-bakit ka nagbebaby talk?! Sinong makulit, ha?!"
