"I arrived in front of their house, and the guard opened the gate for me. I smiled at their driver, as they already knew me.
"You're here, miss..." Manong said to me.
"Yes, I am. I think Dark is still asleep. Just come in," he said, so I nodded and entered.
Their house is so beautiful, truly luxurious, just like Dark.
"Iha..." Dark's mom greeted me happily, so I smiled sweetly at her.
"Tita..." I said to her and hugged her.
"I'm glad you visited," she said, and we walked towards their living room.
"Tita..." Beverly, Dark's sister, greeted me happily. We hugged each other, and Tita just laughed at the two of us.
"Iha... you're here too?" Dark's dad suddenly said as he came down the stairs, wearing his business attire.
"Yes, Uncle," I said to him, approaching him and hugging him.
"Did you eat your breakfast, iha? Come with us, Dark is still asleep. You can join us," Tita said, so I nodded and followed them to the living room.
I arrived in front of Dark's room. His door is black, while Tita and his sister have brown doors. I turned the doorknob, and luckily it was open. I smiled at him when I saw him sleeping peacefully. The room was dark because he hadn't opened the curtains yet. He was wrapped in a thick blanket because his air conditioner was on. I chuckled softly at him and slowly removed the thick curtains from his window, allowing the warmth to enter. It wasn't too hot, just right.
"Hmmm," he said sleepily, still with his eyes closed, while the blanket covered his body.
I chuckled softly and removed my shoes, leaving only my socks on. I approached his bed, where he was still sleeping, and sat on it.
"Love... Good morning," I said cheerfully.
He stirred and hugged me, kissing my face.
"Are you awake?" I asked him.
"I'm still sleepy," he said with his eyes closed.
"Okay, fine," I said to him.
I sat on top of him, and he hugged me tightly, burying his face in my neck. I adjusted the comforter over our bodies, and he nuzzled his face against my neck while his eyes were still closed.
"Why did you come here?" he asked playfully with his eyes closed.
"I came to visit you," I said to him.
"Did mommy and daddy see you?" he asked.
"Yes, earlier they were downstairs having breakfast. You should wake up and have breakfast too. Uncle is going to work, and you're still sleeping. Mom scolded you last night," I said to him.
"I felt your b*obs touch my chest," he teased, so I lightly slapped his chest, and he laughed.
"You're such a p*****t," I said to him, slightly annoyed. He laughed and got up from the bed.
He quickly kissed me on the lips before saying, "I'm going to the bathroom. We might create a miracle."
I threw his pillow at him, and he laughed as he entered the bathroom.
I fixed his bed and his belongings in the room before leaving. I sat on their sofa, where Bembem, Dark's sister, was watching cartoons. We laughed and had fun together. Tita was also there with us.
It was just the two of us, Bembem and I, on the sofa, watching TV. She was watching cartoons, and I was typing on my phone, chatting with my two close friends.
Suddenly, someone kissed my cheek, so I looked over. It was Dark, wearing a white t-shirt, black cotton shorts, and expensive slippers. I smiled at him and kissed him back on the lips quickly.
He sat next to me and hugged me around the waist, resting his face on my shoulder.
"Can you cook for me, love?" he suddenly said, so I stopped typing and looked at him.
"Why?" I asked him softly.
"I just want to taste your cooking," he said.
I stood up when he said that because I do know how to cook. Sometimes I help Manang in our house, and he also helps me cook, so maybe I'm good at it.
We walked to their kitchen. Tita wasn't there; she had some errands to run. It was just us and their helpers.
"Iha... Iha... what do you need?" the elderly maid asked us. She must be their housekeeper.
"Ah... Manang, she's going to cook for me," he said, so the old lady smiled at him and nodded at both of us.
Manang gave me their apron and tied my hair for me. Then she left, leaving just the two of us. Dark helped me put on the apron and tied my hair. There was a part that he couldn't reach, so I just let it be.
I took a knife and started cooking. He sat in front of me, watching me intently. I wore my jacket, which reached my elbows. I started slicing the ingredients. I was making Adobo because that's what he requested, along with other dishes that I know how to cook.
When I finished cooking, I placed the dishes """Manang entered the dining area just as it was served. They grabbed spoons to serve me as the contestant, and they were the judges. Bem2 also joined us, looking pleased.
"It's delicious," she happily said.
"Mom, can I have some rice?" she suddenly asked, making us laugh.
Manang scooped some rice onto a large plate and placed it in front of the two of them. Manang smiled because they ate a lot, probably three servings each.
It's not obvious, but I'm good at cooking.
They almost finished the adobo I cooked for them. Both Manang and Bem2 laughed as they ate in front of the two of them. They shared the dishes I cooked, and it was really enjoyable.
Lunch was about to arrive, and I was supposed to have lunch here. Tita called on their telephone in the mansion. I cooked because they wanted adobo and other dishes that I know how to cook. I cooked around five dishes, and Manang also cooks them at our house.
I was still wearing the apron as I brought the food to their dining area.
"Dear... Did you cook this?" Tita asked, and I just nodded at her with a smile. Tito was also there, still in his business attire.
"Kiss me, and let's eat," she said as they sat down, while I stood beside Dark, with his arm around my waist.
Tita and Tito tasted the food, and I held my breath. I didn't know if my cooking was good, but they seemed to pause.
"It's delicious," Tita said, making me smile at her.
"Sit down, dear, let's eat," Tito said, so I smiled at him and took off my apron.
"Oh, I'm sorry, dear... I forgot," Manang said, making me smile at her before sitting beside Dark."""
