That morning, we both found out that we didn't have surgeries until the evening. Because of that, he said, he wanted to 'use' his day with me. When I asked him what he wanted, he said he wanted to go to the mall with me.

Now, I just got out of the shower with a towel wrapped around my body.

And no, I did not do anything.....naughty in the bathroom. Earlier, after our encounter, I forced myself to push my libido back to its cave and think about other stuff.

My hair is flowing down my back and is dry, since I used a blower before I headed out of the bathroom. Kasalukuyan akong nakapamewang at nagde-decide ng gusto kong isuot.

I could just go with my usual pants and boots, but that doesn't feel right. So, I browsed through my hung and folded clothes until I came up with an outfit in my head. I decided to wear a white silk longsleeves top, high-waisted gray ankle trousers and I looped my black Fendi belt around my waists. For my shoes I chose a pair white Nike's to make it casual. I then turned around and snatched my small YSL crossbody bag from my small sections of bags.

Paglabas ko mula sa aking walk-in closet ay ini-toss ko ang aking bag sa aking kama at dumeretso sa aking vanity mirror. Pag-upo ko sa harap noon ay sumalubong sa akin ang bare kong mukha. I only put a right amount of lip gloss on my pouty lips, because it's already naturally pink. I then curled my thick lashes quickly, and then reached for the eyebrow brush to groom my already thick and perfectly trimmed brows, I love them so much because they compliment my coffee, brown eyes. I then added a little blush on my cheekbones and that's about it, my nose doesn't need any contouring since I already and absolutely love how it looks on its own.

"Shét, what a good day to be a Jonas." I murmured as I put back the cosmetic stuff to its right places.

Nagpapasalamat talaga ako na one day ay napag-desisyonan na mag-procreate nila Miranda Lucille Gozar at Samuel Orsini Jonas. Because of them, I won the genetic lottery. Kay Mama ko nakuha ang ganda, ka-sexy-han, at half ng I.Q ko. Samantalang kay Papa nanggaling ang another half ng katalinuhan ko, my height, at best eyebrow genes. Nagpapasalamat din ako na tinuruan niya ako kung paano alagaan iyon.

After a satisfied smile in the mirror, I reached for my jewelry drawer and grabbed my white, gold small hoop earrings and slipped it on my earlobes.

Paglabas ko ay sumalubong sa aking paningin si Beaux na naka-fully dressed na at nakaupo sa living room. Napatayo siya at napatitig sa akin nang makita niya ako.

He exhaled loudly and fanned himself with his hand like he was having a hard time breathing.

"Shét, ang ganda mo talaga!!" He even clutched his chest.

Inirapan ko siya, pero deep inside, I feel like smiling because I honestly like the way he hypes me up. He's so unlike other guys na sinasabihan ka lang ng 'beautiful',  I mean there is nothing wrong with that, and that is cute, but it's not enough for me. I prefer it if they're expressive like Beaux.

I pushed that thought away because why am I even comparing him to other guys, to begin with?

"Ewan ko sa'yo." I replied.

He just laughed and offered me a small bouquet of colorful flowers. I didn't even realize that he was holding that until now.

"What's that?"
