"H-Ha? Ayos ka lang?"
My lips parted after hearing what he just said. I looked at him while fixing my things. I decided to go home at my condo na rin. Nakakailang gabi na 'ko dito. Miss ko na rin ang condo ko.
"Nevermind," He let out a heavy sighed. "Hatid kita sa condo mo." He gave me a small smile.
"Hindi na, ayos lang." Sabi ko habang bitbit ang towel ko, maliligo muna 'ko bago umuwi ng condo ko. Tipid na rin sa tubig.
"Paano yung mga pagkain mo duon? Breakfast? Lunch? Dinner?" He asked. "Hindi ka pa naman pala-luto."
"Minsan naman, I don't eat. If I'll eat, I'll cook or papadeliver." I smiled a bit and slowly nod.
"Fastfoods are not good for your health. Mas lalo na kapag hindi kumakain. Are you out of your mind?" His brows met. "Let me stay at your condo. Handa akong pagsilbihan ka."
"Wag na. I can handle. Buhay pa naman ako." I chuckled. "Payat payat lang, pero malakas pa 'to!"
I went inside the bathroom and took a bath. While taking a bath, paulit-ulit sa isip ko ang sinabi niya kanina lang. Hindi na naman ako papatulugin nito. Iisipin ko na naman 'to nang malala. Ayokong mahulog, mali eh. Maling mali. Una pa lang napagusapan na naming hindi siya nag gigirlfriend dahil gusto niya makatapos muna. Ako lang naman 'tong marupok na nga, nakikipagdeal pa.
I was wearing a white spaghetti strap partnered with a black shorts and white shoes. I bun my hair to look presentable.
"I'll go now," I tell Caeleb while carrying my bag.
"Let me," Sabi niya sabay hawak sa bag ko. Pero, hindi ko naman 'to binitawan. "Akin na,"
"W-Wag na." Sabi ko, umiiwas ako nang kaonti, for me not to catch deeper feelings for him. "Kaya ko naman."
He crashed his lips on mine. It's a bit awkward dahil parehas pa kaming nakahawak sa bag ko. Kusa kong nabitawan ang bag at siya na ang humawak. Agad din naman niyang nilayo ang mukha niya sakin.
"I know your weakness," He winked at me. He's my weakness. Nakakapanghina sa lahat ng bagay. "Let's go."
Bumaba na kami at nagsimulang maglakad. Buti na lang, walking distance lang talaga ang condo ko sa condo niya. Hindi ganoong kalayo. We stopped walking when a girl appeared.
"Cae," Boses ng babae. "Long time no see. CSB ka pa rin?"
"Uy," He glanced at me. "Oo, CSB pa rin." Agad din namang bumalik ang tingin niya sa babae. Parang piniga ang puso ko.
"Goods! Ayon pa rin ba number mo?" She asked Caeleb.
"Ah, oo." Caeleb awkwardly smiled.
