CHAPTER XIV: My Happiness

I want to hear my name in your lips again…

--------

Milena prepared breakfast while I took a shower. I feel happy when she told me that she’ll drive me back home. As I walked down the stairs, I heard her talking to someone in her phone. I pressed my lips tightly in jealousy. She’s using her sweet cute voice and giggling like a lovestruck teenager! After her phone call, she’s still smiling while spinning her phone in her hands.

She noticed my presence and said, “Oh, there you are! Come and sit here. Enjoy my breakfast a la carte!”

I glared at her as she gave me my food.

“Who are you talking too? Why are you smiling like you have been possessed by a flirty soul? Your voice is too girly! And you bit your lip while listening to that caller!”

“Oh, shut up! It’s none of your business! Go finish your breakfast and we’ll go home!”

My jealousy was gone in a snap as she said that ‘we’ will go home. I smiled as I realized that we’re back to being friends. She’s not mad at me anymore. The next step is to make her fall in love with me again.

I volunteered to wash the dishes so that she could take a bath. She left her phone and that gave me the chance to check her caller earlier. I blushed when her password’s still the same, our special day. I went to her recent call log and I saw a guy’s name and an international number. I saved the number and name in my phone. I needed to know what’s the role of that guy in my girl’s life. Then I forwarded the images from my phone to hers. It was a bunch of my selfies and stolen pictures with her from last night. I changed her wallpaper, a picture of me hugging her while she’s sleeping so soundly. I also saved my number to her contact list. To get her number, I need to send a text to my number. But before I could, Milena saw me and quickly grabbed her phone. I pouted and followed her into her car then we drove back to Manila.

When she parked outside of my house, part of me doesn’t want to be separated from her again. I felt like I wanted to cry and cling on to her forever. I opened her car door and step a foot outside but then I looked back at her and stole a quick kiss on her lips. I want to hug her too, but she playfully pushed me away. We said goodbye before she drove back to her place. My gaze followed her car until I couldn’t see it anymore. I entered our house and I saw my mother packing some things on her carry-on luggage. I guess she’ll be out of country again.

“Oh, Liza! I’ll be gone for two weeks with your older brother. I’ll introduce him to our company. Take care of your baby sister and brother okay? I also booked a flight for you next month in Australia. Your father asked you to visit him. He’ll introduce you to her business partners. He also wants you to be part of their team even if only in your days off at the hospital.”, Mom said and I just my head in agreement at her before going to my room.

I jumped in my bed and cover my face with a pillow as I scream. I hate being a robot for my parents! I’m still scared to come out to them. Not yet. Not until I’m sure that I could make Milena mine again.

I sighed and opened my phone. I searched for the guy caller’s name on her sss friends list. He’s living in Canada and studied at the same grade school as Milena. He posted many videos of him singing his own song compositions dedicated to my girl. Duh! Milena would never fall for a guy like him! I’m the first person who serenaded her personally!

My phone vibrated, Milena texted me. I bit my lip, smile and hugged my pillow tight as I kicked my feet up in the air. I feel butterflies in my tummy again and my heart’s palpitating so hard.

“Hey crazy! You downloaded a virus on my phone! I needed to delete all the infected images from my gallery.”

I smirked. I know that she’ll never do that.

“Hi, baby! I’m so happy you sent me a text! But you’re still mean! It was hard thinking different poses just to give you wonderful selfies of me! I’ll soon tame your wild heart.”

She never replied but I still have a wide smile on my lips. I am so in love with you, Milena!
