Tawa ng tawa si dexter at napa simangot nanaman si Suri dahil sa pag Tawa ni dexter.

"Alam nyo ba Hindi malayong ma in love kayo sa isat isa see napaka protective nyo," Asena said While laughing.

To be honest that's true palaging dahilan ni Suri ang pang babae ni dexter Kahit Hindi Naman nang babae si dexter.

"No way," they said at sabay pa

Nag tawanan lang kami ng nag tawanan ng dumating na ang pagkain.

"Hoy Asena kamusta lovelife?" Nikki ask were close kaya super open kami sa isat isa.

"Girl don't ask me ask tala!" Asena replied.
"Huh why me I don't even have a lovelife nor crush " I said while looking at my food.

"Sis diba crush mo si charles?" Suri ask, to be honest kay nikki lang ako nag sasabi yes we're open, pero sinasabi ko kasi sa kanila pag nakalipas na.

"Oh I almost forgot about him , his not my crush anymore " I said with small smile then look at my food.

"Yeah, tala forgot him na talaga kaya you guys should shut up dahil hindi ko kayo ililibre  " Nikki said and we laugh.

Thanks to Nikki naiba yung convo namin.

Then We hang out we went to arcade and play there.

I was looking for my wallet and wala sa bag ko

"Nikki titingnan ko lang ang wallet ko sa resto wait nyo nalang ako dito" I said
"You forgot nanaman, samahan kita?" She ask
"No I can handle It enjoy muna kayo jan ok  " I said then walk to escalator.

Nag lakad na ako papunta sa resto.

Then I was planning to take escalator kaso nag stop sya and I'm so lazy to walk kaya I went to elevator I was the only one The door was about to close when someone's hand stop then the door open and I saw Charles.

I was shocked I stand straight and look down. Good thing napisa ko na ang floor ko.

Charles was standing besides me I can't believe.

Biglang namatay ang ilaw "Omg" I said what happen then the Elevator stop.

Bigla akong natakot kaya napa upo ako walang ilaw at Mukhang na stock kami.

Hindi ko kaya ito natatakot ako I was about to cry but  " hey are you ok ?" He ask I can't  see his face kasi walang ilaw. "Ok lang ako pero natatakot kasi ako" then The tears fell.

Umupo sya sa harap ko at niyakap ako. 'O' that was my face.

Tumigil ang luha ko dahil sa pag kabigla "Wag ka ng umiyak tala nandito naman ako di naman tayo mag tatagal dito " he said while hugging me.

"Salamat Charles " i said then humiwalay na sya tumayo sya at pinisa ang emergency button.
"Hello plss meron na stock dito sa elevator " he said with calm voice .

How can he do that, his still calm with our situation.

''Hayaan mo tala makakalabas din tayo dito don't panic ok everything will be ok" then he open his phone And I saw his wallpaper it was a bible verse.

"Thankyou Charles takot lang talaga ako sa madilim I feel Like I can't breathe" then I smile at him he just nod.
