"Come on, faster.."

"Wait lang nga kasi.." Nagmamadali kong pinagpupulot ang mga gamit na kailangan kong dalhin.

Nakakalat ang iba pang mga damit at gamit ko sa kama. His eyes turned to slits looking at all those mess.

"I should have prepared everything for you. I should have known you'll forget some things to bring." Naiiling na pahayag niya habang nakatayo at naka-krus ang mga braso habang nakatitig sa akin.

I pouted my lips at him. Oo na.. Ako na ang makakalimutin. Kasi naman eh, nakakahiya pa kung siya ang pag-aayusin ko ng mga gamit ko. He's my bf, not my yaya.

And I forgot all about it for there's a lot of work to do in the company. I've been busy. I'm just starting, I need to be efficient in my job.

"They have been waiting for hours now."

"Hayaan mo sila. Sasama-sama sila so they should learn to wait." I grinned while putting my dlsr in my bag.

When I'm done with everything, I asked him to go but he only stared at me.

"Hey!" I said, conscious with his lingering gaze.

Namumula ang mukha ko sa paninitig niya.

"You're so beautiful.."

"I know right!" Natatawa kong saad habang pinagtatakpan ang pamumula ko.

No one can beat Apollo when he's on his sweet side.

At tsaka totoo naman na ang ganda ko ngayon. I'm on my Boho style long summer white dress with floral prints and gladiator strappy flip flops. I know I look wondrous! Iyon kasi ang sabi sa akin ng salamin kanina. Ayoko nang magpaka-humble pa. Masamang magsinungaling sa sarili. I don't like hypocrisy.

"Hey, bilisan niyo nga! Ang bagal niyo naman!" Priam shouted at us inside the Hiace.

Nakaakbay sa akin si Apollo habang papunta kami sa naka-park na sasakyan. He looks so handsome wearing casually.. He's in his cargo shorts and white v-neck tee shirt. He's also wearing trainers for his foot wear. His wayfarer complemented his summer look. I can't decide if he's striking in his business suit or in his casual looks.

"Tama na 'yang pa-tweetums niyo!"

Nandoon na silang lahat sa loob ng sasakyan. Malamang inip na inip na sila. Halata naman sa sigaw at pagsimangot ni Priam.

"Priam, pwede ba? Stop shouting!" Soffia irritatedly said while comfortably sitting inside the van. "And please, you two, get your ass off already here! I need some vitamin sea!"

Hindi naman halatang excited mag-beach itong pinsan ko!

"Hi, kuya!" Sumungaw naman ang mukha ni Artemis.

She's smiling from ear to ear and I can guess why. She's in her short summer dress. She looks so cute.

"Hey, why are you sitting beside that man?" Apollo seriously asked his sister.

"Kuya, I want it here!"

Parang magta-tantrums pa itong si Artemis!

"Stop, whining you, brat! We're not off to Disneyland, don't act like that." Malditang suweto dito ni Soffia na nagpatigil kay Artemis.

Pinigilan ko ang hagikhik ko sa isiping kayang-kaya ni Soffia patigilin si Artemis. Nakasimangot tuloy itong tahimik na umupo sa sulok.

Ito talaga ang hirap kapag marami. Para tuloy kaming nasa palengke sa ingay.
