Christmas in the Philippines start early as September, which was very weird at first for me, Grandma told me that it was because of the Spanish influence thats why.

Moving on

I shouldn't think to much about earlier, i know i should not go there because were starting to get closure.

Maybe what I'm feeling is finding closure for me and him

I shrugged it off and continue to stir the batter mixture for the chocolates moist cake im making while Grandma is still not finished checking if we had enough food.

Boy i shouldn't brag but Grandma made a lot that could feed 20 people.

I felt very much alive since my parent are coming here to visit.

I hope this day will be perfect

-Kathrine

~Bitch, what time will the party start

I snicker at her text

~ who said your invited ?

-Kathrine

~ shut up invite or not my ass is gonna be there!

i started laughing with her reply

~ just come by 8 bring Josh with you and Julien okay.

A minute later she replied with a okay.

After the meringue is ready i fold in the chocolate batter mixture into the meringue and fold it until it is incorporated.

I transfer it into the container and pop it on the oven.

*Tok tok tok

~you have been slain~

I pout seeing my kadita dead, who is it now

Im playing mobile legend

I need total concentration on this!

Dragging my feet to the door still eyes glued to the screen.

"Hey! "

I look up to see Christian wearing a casual polo with his denim jeans, on his arms he brought boxes i thinks its foods.

Me having seconds thoughts on leaving my game to afk.

Choices!!!

I turned off my phone sliding it into my pants

"Your here early hehe"

He smiled "where should i put this ?" He asked.

"Ohh give me that" i took the the things he brought and put it into the counter.

"Prince could you fetch you parents they seem to arrived earlier than planned" grandma shouted.

"Okay! Grandma the cake is in the oven it is still 35 mins left go tend to it please" i shouted back.

Christian look at me like i have four eyes

"Sorry were both to lazy sometimes so we shout" i mused.

"Its fine its kinda refreshing to see you like that " he said.

I laughed

"Well I'm going to the airport, why not stay here and make yourself at home okay" i told him.

"Can i come with you i can help carry their luggages" he offered.

I got nothing to reply and nodded

We decided to take our SUV since its kinda bigger than his car.

I turn in the engine and step on the gas

Haft way through were stuck on traffic i should have remembered it is traffic during night especially theres an occasion many are getting their way home or shopping for Christmas.

"Are you happy with Pierre?" I turn to Christian.

" y yes of course!" I was caught off guard with his question.

" why? " he ask

I glance at the mirror avoiding his gaze

"Because he is nice and really takes good care of me he understand and is willing to lend a hand to anybody" i answered, Pierre is really a good person I'm sure of it.

"Will you have stayed with me if i was like him?" He murmured.

I felt my heart tighten, kinda feeling guilty is it wrong for me to be guilty i did gave him a lot of chances but he just failed to understand what he did wrong.

" please lets just drop it" i whispered.

Silence and the engines sound soothes the silence between us.

I turned on the radio to shake lessen the pressure im feeling.

A few more minutes finally we slipped out of the traffic jam and headed down to the airport.

We waited outside right next to the ice cream parlor, i kinda went at first sight my sweet tooth is being a brat.

Brushing the tension from earlier i glance at Christian who is quietly sipping his latte he bought. Maybe just maybe i should have given him a decent answer not sweep it under the rug.

-Prince!!!!!

I turn to be enveloped into a tight hug.

"Mom!" I shriek and hug her back i couldn't help to shed some tears, i look up to papa smiling at us.

"O oh Christian nice to see you here" mom said and gave him a hug nonetheless.

I turn to dad looking at me with questionable look sounding like explain this

I just shrugged because i don't know the answer either.

We all walk back to the car.

" hey ill drive " Christian offered.

I just whispered a thank you

Mom and dad were talking about there work and funny moments like dad locked the car on his way to work with his keys still inside the car and mom had to pick him up and give him the other spare key.

We had a lot of laugh, still sense that they are wary of Christian but brushed it off ill talk to them later, Christian has changed for the better and i believe him.

It is not wrong of him to give him another chance to be friends with me, even though we had a past relationship. Its not like we met and become we were friends and become close friends.

We both know each others really well, and i fell for that side on him beng honest and being a perfect person to me, he shows it everyday its just that he couldn't do it it with other persons.

I mentally shook my head

I will not dwell on the past and try to move on with our lives.

We already adults, were already at the age that we can decide what right and whats wrong.

Maybe well find closure with us being around each other.
