"Are you sure about this, Aeri? I'm sorry I couldn't be there. I'll wait pa kasi sa opening nung ginawa kong project dito." Elijah said, ka VC ko siya ngayon.

"Yeah, I'm ready, Elisha. It's okay, andito naman si Jacob. Asikasuhin mo muna iyan."

"Did you know that your parents are here? Kahapon sila dumating dito nakita ko sila sa conference. Ngayon ata sila uuwi jan. Alam na ba nila ito?"

"No, hindi naman sila nagsasabi pag aalis sila eh, nababalitaan ko na lang. Hindi pa nila alam pero I'm sure pagkabalik nila rito eh malalaman nila dahil paniguradong nasa news healines na ako mamaya."

"Eli, let's go?" Pamilyar na tinig ng babae ang tumawag kay Elisha.

"May lakad ka pa ata? Sige na, bye Elisha, take care. See you soon." I smiled and he smiled back before ending the call.

I went to the kitchen to check on Jacob. He's still cooking breakfast. I walk towards him and hug him from the back. Hanggang balikat niya lang ako kaya tumilhay ako at inamoy ang leeg niya.

"Love, ano ba, nagluluto ako." He chuckled. I kissed his shoulder and his neck.

I was still hugging him and watching him to cook the bacons when his phone suddenly rang.

Bumitaw ako sa yakap at nilingon ko ang breakfast table kung saan nakalagay ang phone. Bea Acosta ang name na nakalagay ng caller.

"Sorry, love. I have to take this call." Tumango naman ako bilang sagot. Pumunta siya sa balcony tsaka doon sila nag usap.

Ako na ang nagtuloy ng niluluto ni Jacob since patapos naman na iyon. Nilagay ko na siya sa plate tsaka ibinaba sa brealfast table. Saktong pagtapos ko ay pagbalik naman ni Jacob.

"It's Bea, she's just asking about the Palawan project. Siya ang Architect nun pero hindi na siya nakabalik kasi pumunta siyang Spain dahil may mga conference daw sila." Paliwanag ni Jacob habang kumakain kami.

"I didn't ask." Mapait na sabi ko.

He chuckled. "My baby is jealous."

"I am not, Jacob. Please stop."

"Oh, look who's mad?" He laughed.

Natahimik ako at hindi na siya pinansin. Nang matapos kumain ako na ang naghugas.

Si Jacob naman ang yumakap sakin habang naghuhugas.

"I'm sorry, love. Don't be mad please? Sinabi ko lang naman na tumawag siya eh. I didn't mean to tease you. You look cute kasi." He kissed my cheeks.

"How can't I be jealous eh siya yung ex mo?" I sighed.

He laughed again. I glanced at him to give him a glare. He cleared his throat before talking again.

"You believed in that rumors, love? Beatriz is just a close friend of mine. Hindi ko siya naging girlfriend or fling so stop being jealous, okay?" Hinarap ko siya nang matapos na akong mag hugas.

"Okay, I won't" I said and give him a soft kiss on his lips.

"I love you," I said and he just replied me with a kiss, again.
