I closed my eyes again. Just a dream i guess. Go back to sleep Ally. But my is my stomach getting much butterflies?! I felt like I'm gonna throw up at any second!

Wait....

I fully opened my eyes, i was actually on a fucking plane! How did i get the hell in here?

"Chill lady, i carried you." I glance at my side when some pulled my headset.

Carried? He carried me?! What the fuck! Ang bigat ko ata! Baka naman nabigatan sya sa'kin. Oh my gosh... i need to go to our gym room. Ni hindi ko pa napapasok yun!

I just stayed quiet the whole time. Nahihiya ako kay Ace. I gained weight last week! Nag stress eating ako eh. Char. Masarap lang talaga kumain.

"Mabigat ba ako?" Wala sa sariling natanong ko but no response.

Nilingon ko sya. His arms are crossed over his chest and eyes clossed. Suot nya na rin yung neck pillow na suot ko kanina.

Tulog?

His peaceful face made me starred at him. Those thick brows and lashes, pointed nose, pinkish lips. Ah, i missed that! I missed his face, his smell, everything from him.

"I'm glad you're back..." I whispered.

"Starring is rude..." Nagulat ako ng bigla syang nag salita. He opened his eyes and starred back at me. "But you're excused..." He smiled.

"Kase maganda ang tumititig..." I said proudly. He just chuckled. What? Maganda naman ako ah?

"Yeah, yeah..." Ace said humming. "Oh, 'bout what you asked earlier... you're heavy..." He smirked.

I knew it!

I pouted my lips. "I'll go gym! I gained weight last week because of you, i make my self busy eating--" he cuts me off.

"And perfect for me to carry around..."

I felt my face heated. I looked away so that he can't saw my face getting red! Paano nya ako napapakilig ng ganon kadali?!

"You're saying such sweet words just for excuse..." Dahilan ko.

"What? no... Why would i?" He defended his self.

"Just go back to sleep..."

"You're not that heavy..."

"Stop!" I irritatedly said.

"Why?!"

"Sabihin mo nalang na tumaba ako! Pinapabango mo lang yang salita mo eh!"

"No I'm not..." He said calmly, pero maslalo lang na nangunot ang noo ko ng nalingunan ko syang nag pipigil ng tawa!

"Yeah, I'm not..." I sarcastically said.

He just laugh and hug me sideways. Just then. We're okay. Ang dali. Ang rupok sis!

Maya maya pa...

"Ladies and gentle men... Gentle men and ladies..." I heard kuya Leo from the speaker.

What the heck?!

"His the pilot..." Ace said.

What?! He can drive a plane! I didn't know that!

"Fasten your seatbelts my fellow passengers, we'll land in 15 minutes. And i, your handsome pilot here, will smoothly touch the ground and... You are all welcome." Mahabang sabi ni kuya Leo. "Oh, sorry for being impolite pilot, hindi kayo iba sa'kin. No reason for formal speaking... That's all." Dagdag nya.

Napataas nalang ako ng kilay. Obviously, hindi na nya kailangnang sabihin pa 'yon dahil mga tulog ang mga kasama ko at maayos na nakalagay ang mga seatbelts nila.

"That dude is really weird." Bulong ni Ace.

*****

"Finally!" Pasigaw kong sabi.

Nakarating na kami sa mismong rest house namin dito sa palawan. Iginala ko ang paningin ko sa buong paligid. Maayos ang garden sa front ng rest house naalagan ng wasto. The fountain in the middle, kaharap ng mismong front door ay masigla rin. Knowing that when i last came here, there are no water surrounds the fountain. Ngayon ay lumabas nanaman ang ganda nito. On the top of the fountain there was a sculpture of a little angel blowing a horn, pero tubig ang lumalabas. When i starred back at the rest house, it's in new paint color. I smiled.

"Rest house ba talaga 'to o hotel?" Namamanghang tanong ni Shawn. "Ang laki!"

"Wow! Lampas bente ata ang kwarto riyan!" Biro ni Mike.

"Look! Kita ang dagat sa every side guys!" Si Mae habang pinapaikot ang buong katawan.

Yup, naka locate ang rest house namin sa mataas na burol dito. Kitang kita mula rito ang dagat sa ibaba. Kaya medyo mabagal ang pag akyat namin kanina.

"Kayo lang nag babakasyaon dito Ally?" Tanong ni Mae na di natitinag sa dagat ang tingin.

"Nope, all our relatives gathered here when our reunion comes, every two years nga lang." Paliwanag ko. "May ilan na hindi nakakapunta kasi malayong malayo ang lugar nila." Tumango naman sila.

At kaya ganito kalaki ang rest house dito.

"Wow, ang ganda rito..." Bulong ni Ethan.

"Mm-mm! This place is my favorite!" Palahaw ni Giselle na nasatabi ni Ethan. The latter just gave her a small smile.

Nakasimangot na tumingin si Giselle sa akin. I just chuckled and signed her to just go on.

Naagaw ng pansin ko si Ace ng bigla itong magpakalawa ng isang malalim na hininga. "Refreshing..." Naka ngiting sabi nya.

"Super..." I said as i fix my hair.

Mahangin rito at malamig lalo na kapang gabi. That's why i brought some sweaters and jackets with me. Napaka lamigin ko pa naman.

"Hindi pa ba tayo papasok?"

Well, yeah. My brother here with his bored eyes looked at me, so i stop reminiscing the moment to gather my friends to get inside. Nagulat nga ako ng naka tingin sa amin sina kuya Gab, Leo, Jacob, Chris, at yung kambal. Nasa pinto na sila at hinihintay kami, Giselle is with us outside.

Pag pasok namin ay agad kaming binati ng mga maid. And the house keeper, manang Elsa. Tinulungan nila kaming dalhin ang mga gamit namin sa itaas. We'll occupy the hole second floor. There are six rooms in here that is for 'the childrens' of the hole family. The Third floor is for our parents while the three room on the first floor is for the grandparents.

From the second floor, each room has two beds. Well, mag kakapatid sa kada isang kwarto. Hindi naman kasi kami ganon karami. Mga dalawang anak o tatlo lang kaya isang kwarto lang. But our room is the biggest.

Yeah, OURS. Me, Giselle and Zandrea. So as the boy's room too beside ours. Kuya, Kuya Gab and Zander. Nana doesn't want us to separate rooms, when we were kids. Gusto nyang magkakasama lang kaming mga apo nya. Literally the three boys would go to sleep inside the girls room. Sa mga beanbags sila natutulog because we, girls way back young are such a sacredly cat. Gumawa lang ng kwentong nakakatakot ang ibang pinsan namin, kinagabihan ay nasa iisang kama na kaming tatlo at nag tatalukbong.

So, yeah...

About the arrangement of roommates, kaming apat na babae ay nasa isang kwarto. Pinalagyan ko ng isa pang kama para kay Mae. Silang tatlo naman nina kuya, kuya Gab at Zander sa sa kwarto nila. Si Ace at Ethan ang magkasama, Si Mike at Shawn sa kabilang kwarto na katabi ang kanila kuya Chris at Jacob na nasa dulo ng hallway ang kwarto. Mag isa si kuya Leo na katabi ang kwarto nila kuya. Ayaw nyang may kasama sa kwarto.

Napagpasyahan namin na magpahinga na muna bago mag libot. Bandang alas tres ay bumaba kami at nag punta sa baybayin.
