"I'm looking forward to that." I heard him shouted which made me smile




Agad kong pinatay ang pinapainit kong tubig bago ko kinuha ang cup noodles na ipapakain ko sa kaniya. They don't have any stocks here right now at mukhang kakaubos lang din  kaya huwag sana siyang magreklamo.




I poured the hot water on the cup noodles when I already opened it. I remember what 'nay Sarah always do whenever we get sick. Pinapahigop niya kami ng mainit na sabaw to ease the heat at para pagpawisan din kami kahit papaano.





I slowly walked back to the living room to give the cup noodles to him but my brows rose up when I saw him typing something on his phone. He shouldn't be using any gadgets dahil baka mabinat siya.





"Why are you using your phone, Mr. Celino? You're sick incase you forgot." Kung hindi ko lang hawak ang cupnoodles malamang, nakapamewang pa 'ko. Isineryoso ko ang mukha ko when he quickly diverted his gaze at me. I slightly pointed his phone using my foot so  he placed his phone on the table.




"I was just replying to someone," he reasoned out before  suddenly pointed the cup noodles. "What flavor is that?"




I checked the flavor on the cup before I looked at him. "It's beef. Why? You have an allergy?"





He shook his head before he stood up to get his cup noodles in my hand. Kinuha ko ang panyo sa bulsa ko nang bahagya akong matapunan habang hawak ko kanina ang cupnoodles.





"Wala akong nakitang stocks sa kitchen niyo kaya 'yan lang ang mapapakain ko sa 'yo," I reasoned out, still wiping my hands at nang matapos na 'ko, I putted it back fast on my pocket before I sat down on the couch, now staring at him.




"I was about to go sa grocery kahapon but that... happened," he pointed out. I knew what was he talking about so I just sighed. I didn't expect that I had witnessed how devastated he was in such a short period of time. He's drowning himself from drinking the liquor and then now, he got sick.




"Gusto mo bang ako na lang ang bumili?" I asked softly. I should be so calm and nice now because I know, everything he is showing, was just part of pretending. I quickly stood up when I thought he would approve with my suggestion but I looked at him fast when he placed his hand on my wrist.




"No. You don't need to go alone. I feel good lalo na't may nagaalaga sa 'kin." My brows rose up which made him chuckeled a bit. "Samahan mo na lang ako ngayon," he suggested. I gave him a curious look. He was about to stand up, leaving the cup noodles behind pero pinigilan ko siya.




"You're sick, remember? Hindi ka pa totally magaling kaya baka mabinat ka," I lectured him. "And maybe your sister will be mad at me kung malaman niyang nagkasakit ka pero pinabayaan lang kita. Anong oras ba uuwi ang kapatid mo?"



He shook his head. "Hindi siya uuwi dito sa ngayon dahil kay Claireez. She will probably staying there for one week, I guess?



I nodded so I just stood up. "Ako na lang muna ang bibili because you need to eat more lalo na't alak ang inalmusal mo," I pointed out. I noticed how irritated my voice was. I saw him pushing his tongue in the side of his cheek, trying to stop himself from smiling. I diverted my gaze at him, sinasamaan siya ng tingin.




Inilahad ko ang kamay ko sa kaniya para makuha ang pera. Alangan naman ako pa ang gagastos. Mariin niya akong tiningan pero tiningnan ko lang siya na walang pakealam.
