I woke up to a sight that made me smile — Drummer and Jethro sleeping next to me.

Nakahiga sa gitna namin si Drummer at halos okupado nito ang pinakamalaking parte ng kama. Akala mo isang starfish kung maka-stretch ng mga kamay at paa niya. Nakakatawa dahil nakapatong pa ang isang kamay nito sa ibabaw ng mukha ni Jethro.

I wanted to cook for them kaya naman dahan-dahan akong bumangon. Bago lumabas, maingat kong inayos ang pagkakahiga ni Drummer at pareho silang kinumutan. 

After washing up, saktong dumating ang mga inorder kong gulay kaya nagsimula na agad akong magluto. 

I was busy chopping up vegetables when all of a sudden I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist. I smiled when he placed his head above my shoulder, planting a soft kiss on my cheek.

"Please tell me this isn't a dream..." His deep husky voice was music to my ears.  

Marahan kong hinaplos ang pisngi niya. "Filimon, I can feel you behind me. Umayos ka."

Humalakhak siya at imbes na lumayo ay ibinaon niya lang ang mukha niya sa balikat ko. "Sorry.. how's your sleep?"

I smiled and nodded. "Good."

"How's your sleep?" tanong ko pabalik, nagpipigil ng tawa. His stubble touching my neck is making me ticklish. 

"Great..." Nag-angat siya ulit ng mukha, marahang hinahaplos ang tiyan ko. "But it would've been better if Drummer's not here."

Huminto ako sa ginagawa at hinilig ang mukha ko sa direksyon niya. I raised an eyebrow while trying to stop myself from grinning. "Hindi pwedeng makita nina Slade ang noo niya. Dito muna 'yan sa'kin hanggang sa 'di na halata."

"Can't you just put make-up on it?" He pursed his lips, tilting his head while looking at me. 

I jokingly glared at him. "Jethro Filimon, for someone so smart, you sure are kinda dumb."

"And that's why you love me..." He grinned sheepishly. Puchangama stop trying to act cute when you're already cute to begin with!

Pabiro akong ngumuwi.

"Bakit? Hindi ba totoo?" He continued to grin like a fool. 

"I only asked you to stay for a night. Bakit nandito ka pa? Umuwi ka na nga bahay mo," pasinghal kong sambit sa kanya. 

He hugged me tighter as he chuckled. "I left Filimon Heights three years ago and gave back everything that Dad gave me, including the condo. I'm staying at another hotel a few blocks from here."

"Oh..." Napatango na lamang ako. The smile on my face disappeared the moment I realized that he could leave anytime. After all, Filimon Heights is no longer his home.
