Hindi ko alam kung gaano katagal na akong nakatitig sa chocolate na binigay ni Septimus. I still don't get why he needed to give me a chocolate all of a sudden.

Enero came home late tonight kaya hindi namin siya nakasama sa hapag-kainan, I didn't bother to ask him where did he go because I am still thinking about the ferrero.

In the end, kinain ko pa rin. This is really what I need right now, some mood enhancers.

I just realize that chocolates is sweeter when you're broken. It looks like it is designed to be there to sweeten your mood.

Kinubukasan, a knock wake me up. Nang buksan ko ang pinto ay bumungad sa'kin si Septimus, he has an apologetic smile in his face na para bang nagsosorry dahil ginising niya ako.

"Enero and others went out for basketball," I arch my eyebrow, like I was asking him so what?

"Coffee?" he asked shyly.

I stare at him to see if he's joking but his face remained composed.

"Seriously Sep?" he shrugged.

"My treat with a free ride!" I sigh in defeat dahil alam kong hindi ako mananalo kay Septimus. Hindi ko alam kung bakit bigla niyang naisipang magyaya na magkape kahit na kakatapos lang namin magkape kahapon.

I asked him to wait for me, hindi na ako naligo pa. I just wash my face, brush my teeth and change my clothes.

Nang tignan ko ang orasan sa bedside table ko, its just eight in the morning and yes perfect for a coffee.

Septimus wait for me downstairs, nang makita niyang pababa na ako ay nauna siyang tumayo at lumabas ng bahay. Nadatnan ko siyang nakasandal sa kotse niya habang pinaglalaruan yung susi niya, the passenger seat is open, waiting for me to hop in.

I try to recall in my head when was the last time I thought of him being this hot. I can't remember, since when I have Louis with me, I forgot how much I like him.

Isa pa, kung hindi naman siya masyadong naging rude dati baka siguro hanggang ngayon patay na patay pa rin ako sa kanya.

But yes, he's hot today.

I hop in in his car and waited for him to hop in and turn on the engine. I don't know where are we going but I trust him so I remained silent.

We stopped in front of coffee shop, matagal-tagal rin ang byahe namin at hindi ko alam kung nasaan na ba kami.

I didn't wait for him to open the door for me, instead I jump outside as soon as he turn off the engine.

"Hindi mo ko hinintay! That's my duty," inirapan ko lang siya sa sinabi niya kaya napatawa siya.

"What are you my bodyguard?" napailing na lang siya sa sinabi ko.

He guide me, holding my back a little as we walk through the entrance.

At dahil sinabi niyang treat niya 'to, hinayaan ko na lang siyang umorder ng kahit na ano para sa'kin. I already said to him that I don't like milktea so I'm sure, hindi siya bibili ng milktea for me.

He came back with two cup of coffee in his hands.

We didn't talk too much, which is I kinda like and comfortable with. Tahimik lang kami habang umiinom ng kape namin at tumitingin sa paligid. Minsan, nagkakatinginan at magngingitian.

When we're almost done, Septimus suddenly talk.

"Louis talked to me," matagal ko siyang tinignan habang hawak ang kape ko.

Hindi ko alam kung ano ba ang dapat na maging reaskyon ko sa sinabi niya. Of all people, why Louis would talked to him? Hindi ba dapat kay Enero dahil siya ang kapatid ko?
