   'Nga ba?'

   'Manahimik ka!'

   Iiling iling akong naligo at nagmadaling magbihis. Baka ma-late kami ay ako pa ang sisihin ng Dark Lord.

*Rain*

   Nagpakawala ako ng maluwag na hininga nang makapasok si Haru sa banyo.

   I ordered him to take a shower first because I didn't want him to see the tent in my boxers.

   D*mn that midget and his warm and soft, little hands! Kung hindi pa siya nagising ay baka kung saan na napunta ang kamay niya.

   And I was not doing anything to stop him! It was like my body was anticipating something rather... exciting, yet my mind was yelling at me "You're betraying Summer!"

   D*mmit!

   I have to get Haru out of my sight before he could even take Summer's place.

   But the thought of my friend, Jake, playing his games with Haru was something I couldn't let happen.

   Why?

   How I wish I knew.

   Tumayo ako at hinawi ang kurtina. I looked at the stretch of nature beyond the city to get my mind off my big problem.

   The forest and mountain were breathtaking.

   It was spring.

   The season of new beginnings. Everyone, everything had started anew except for me.

   Because every time I tried, I'd always end up going backwards.

   It's summer after spring afterall.

   At ang unti-unting pag-init ng panahon ang indikasyon na papatapos na ang tagsibol.

   "Tapos na ako. Ikaw na."

   I looked over my shoulder and there he was. He looked so fresh just like those green leaves that swayed with the whispering breeze.

   He was the perfect human representation of spring. Not just because of his smile and looks. Maging ang character niya mismo. Kahit minsan ay alam kong hindi pa siya totohanang nagalit sa akin kahit madalas ay lumalagpas na ako sa linya.

   He was always patient with me and I would never understand why. It was like he could easily forgive and forget.

   He was a breath of fresh air.

   And I hated myself every time that I looked at him. For what reason? I don't know.

*Haru*

   "I see that you're wearing blue today, para patunayang hindi ka feminine?"

   Gusto kong burahin ng suntok ang ngisi sa mukha niya. Ang aga-aga ah. Kung hindi lang espesyal ang araw na ito para sa akin baka ginawa ko na.

   Kaya sa halip ay nginitian ko siya na tila hindi niya inasahan. Lumapit ako sa kama at sinimulang ayusin iyon.

   "What are you doing?"

   "Inaayos ko ang kama mo." Hindi tumitingin na sagot ko.

   "Whatever." Narinig kong bulong niya bago tumungo sa banyo.

   Hinila ko ang comforter at pinagpatong ang mga unan. Naroroon pa rin ang amoy ni Rain. Bago ko pa man mapigilan ang sarili ko ay nakadikit na ang mukha ko sa ginamit niya unan.
