#TSC33: Little Things, Little Dreams

I'm tired. So, tried that I just want to be a lazy bum all day long. I rolled over the bed and looked at the ceiling. Even looking at the ceiling makes me feel so tired and drained. I want food, but I don't have food, and I don't want to cook. It would only taste bland.

I held my stomach when I heard my tummy demanding food. I just rolled over again and almost fell on the floor. Luckily, I was able to turn around. Food, I'm hungry. I thought of ordering or calling the reception but I don't want any fast food, and fine food will take too long to be delivered.

What should I do?

Suddenly, there was a light bulb moment in my head. I got up on my bed quickly and wore my slippers to run outside of my unit and went to Akakios's suite. I pressed his code and went in without announcing myself.

Kaagad akong pumunta sa kitchen n'ya para maghanap ng pagkain. He's a really great cook! I saw some left-over foods on his fridge and decided to take it out to microwave it. While I was doing that, I heard him.

"Silhoue?"

"The only!" I answered, as I put the plate with foods on the microwave.

"Gutom ka?" Palapit na nang palapit ang boses n'ya. Naramdaman ko kakaibang tibok ng puso ko. I ignored it.

"Sobra." Sagot ko habang excited na nakatingin sa microwave. I heard him chuckled as I felt him at my back. He rested his chin on the top of my head. My heart wouldn't stay calm but I just let him do that, I'm stealing his food, again.

"You're really like a cat..." He commented while laughing softly. I know! Buti na lang sanay na 'tong si Akakios sa 'kin. It's just... so comfortable around him.

It's been like three months since we met each other and we became much closer. Bestfriends. We knew unconscious things about each other, we discovered and learned our personalities, likes, dislikes and such.

We always talk to each other. Palagi rin kaming magkasama. Lalo na sa iisang kompanya rin kami natanggap sa pagtratrabaho. Akala ko nga, magsasawa ako eh. Pero hindi, araw araw minsan parang surprise pa rin.

We just never get bored of each other's presence. We liked talking random things, we just clicked. Never a dull moment. We have memorized tons of things about each other yet we still uncover more.

I was so thankful for meeting him. For being with him.

"Pinag-init mo rin ako?" He asked gently, while I felt his both hands on the top of my head and he rested his chin again in there.

"Of course." I replied chuckling. Ako na nga lang nagnanakaw ng pagkain n'ya, syempre alam ko naman na sasabay 'to sa pagkain 'to.

"Thank you."

The microwave beeped and I took out the meal. Inalis ni Akakios ang pagkakapwesto n'ya sa 'kin. Tangkad tangkad talaga nito. Minsan gusto ko na lang hingan ng height. He helped me in bringing the plates to the table.

He also took a new plate for rice. Nasa rice cooker. Kaya gustong gusto ko na napunta lagi rito sa unit n'ya. May pagkain na ready lagi, tapos ang cozy. My unit was more on modern and minimal style, while his was homey and cozy.

The ambiance felt like you are living in a forest, although you are in a city. Minsan nga parang mas unit ko na 'tong unit ni Akakios dahil dito ako natutulog tapos s'ya sa unit ko matutulog kasi nga nandito ako.
