Me and My Fake Fiancé {HIATUS}

Chapter 12

FRELE

"...sing!"

5 minutes pa.

" Oi! ...sing!"

Bahala ka diyan.

"For the love of..."

Ano ba? Ang ingay!

Mmmm... Anong oras na ba? I shifted and extended a hand, reaching towards sa nightstand ko. My phone... Where is it? Mmmm... Alarm... Bakit hindi siya tumunog? Hmmm... Something soft pero may pagka-firm. And a little bit rough? I squeezed it.

"Oi!"

Huh?

I opened my eyes to see another person in the room. "AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" I screamed. I moved backwards until nahulog ako sa kama. "Aray!"

"For goodness sake, Frele! Shut your trap!"

"Who...? What are you doing here?!" I shouted while pointing a finger at him.

"You are a real pain in the ass, woman," he sighed exasperatingly. "Find that out yourself." He stood up, took his book with him, and left.

Clothes!

I looked down and am very thankful that I still have my clothes on. Ang sakit parin ng likod at puwet ko. But that's not important. My head feels a little fuzzy. Maybe a shower might help.

Surprisingly, mayroon akong bag na puno ng mga damit at necessities. Is this deliberate? I'll think about it later. Right now, maliligo muna ako.

I walked towards the bathroom, it's inside the room so I'm guessing na nasa hotel ako. Where exactly though?

After stripping all my clothes, I turned the shower's knob and let the water flow. As well as ang memories ng mga nangyari. I facepalmed. For sure, humorously idiotic yung mukha ko kanina. It's been a while since I've slept for long and so well. Without a doubt, pagod na pagod yata ako kagabi. I sighed. This is the start. The official start. Mula dito ay engaged na kami ni mayabang. The only problem now is Nicky. He has the tendency to be overprotective. And sigurado ako na if things go south, he'll stop this immediately. But, what could be the possibilities?

Pagkatapos kong maligo, I got dressed in a sky blue jumpsuit and strapped sandals bago ako lumabas. My mission now is hanapin si mayabang.

LAUNCE

Well, that reaction is to be expected. No matter how you look at it, Frele is still normal. The least na magagawa ko is to keep it that way.

As much as I don't like to waste time, this doesn't seem so bad. I mean, here I am-eating breakfast sa hotel's restaurant. Laguidly, if I may add. A part of me wants to deny na ginagawa ko ito upang hintayin si slowpoke na mag-join sa akin. As if I'll admit that out loud.

My phone's ringing again. I ignored it. Nasabihan ko na sila na day-off ko ngayon, I'd like to keep it that way. Binilin ko na rin ky Nathan ang lahat na kailangan tapusin.

FRELE

I'm walking towards the hotel's restaurant. Assumption ko lang na nandoon si mayabang ngayon. It's past 8 AM so most probably, either kumakain siya ng breakfast o pumunta siya sa kung saan na hindi ko alam. No harm in checking the former first. Plus, kakain nalang din ako para may energy.

Unang impression ko pagpasok ko ay... Ang bango! Or maybe it's just me dahil nagugutom na ako? Naka-buffet style yung restaurant kung kaya't maamoy mo paminsan-minsan ang aroma ng pagkain.

Merong nag-tap sa shoulder ko, pulling me out of my thoughts. "Wipe that drool from your face. You look disgusting," he scoffed.

I look back with shock. Who else pa ba? I've been accustomed sa tone at personality niya-not all but quite. Dali-dali kong pinunasan ang bibig ko gamit ng kamay ko. No drool. I didn't even realize that I was staring sa pagkain. Don't want to admit this but... I think my mouth was open the entire time. I glared at him. "Drool mo ang mukha mo," sabi ko sabay pahid ng kamay ko sa mukha niya.
