Two weeks have passed yet I cannot forget what I saw at the office.

I don't know what to feel but I cannot hide the fact that I am affected by Reagan's presence.

Only a day passed but Reagan is already annoying the hell out of me.

It just so happened that I was preoccupied with work lately that I was not able to pay the rent on time.

Yet, here he is, in front of my door.

With a smirk on his face.

"So, when are you planning to pay your dues?" Reagan asked, raising an eyebrow.

I crossed my arms over my chest and glared at him.

"Sorry naman po ha. Busy ako kasi sa trabaho kaya hindi ako nakapagbayad on time. Saglit lang PO ha." I said sarcastically.

I went inside the room and fished out a couple of bills I had separated for the rent.

When I turned around, I found Reagan lying on my couch.

"Ano sa tingin mo ginagawa mo?" I asked looking at him in a bewildered expression.

"Oh, andyan ka pala!" He smirked and he turned to me, still lying down.

His chiseled abs were seen thru his muscle tee.

I turned my eyes away from his chest and glared at him.

"Eto na ang bayad. Tsupi!" I handed him the money which he gladly took.

He even have the nerve to count them in front of me!

Once he was done, he placed it inside his back pocket.

"Ganyan ka ba sa bisita mo? Wala man lang pa-juice?" He teased and I rolled my eyes.

I stomped on my heel and poured orange juice on a glass.

I handed it to him and he took it happily.

"Mabulunan ka sana." I muttered and just like that, he began coughing.

"Tingnan mo to! Inorasyunan mo pa ata bago ibigay sa akin!" Reagan exclaimed and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.

It was my turn to laugh.

Pretty soon, we were laughing.

I stopped when I noticed him smiling and looking at me.

"Ta-tapos ka na? Pwede ka ng umalis?" I asked nervously.

This is making me uncomfortable!

"I missed you, Shai." Reagan said and looked directly into my eyes.

I feel my face reddened.

I was at loss for words.

I did not expect he will say those things.

"I know I have left so abruptly. Duwag nga ata ako." Reagan laughed but I noticed his eyes started watering. 

"Back then, I was a fool to take you for granted. But, believe me, minahal kita noon." Reagan continued, his voice hoarse.

My eyes felt hot with tears.

Minahal.

Past tense.

Tapos na.

"I never stopped loving you but I have to leave you. My dad warned me that he will get back at you and ruin your life if I did not break up or leave you." He said and wiped his tears.

"Wow. Lakas naman makateleserye nyan!" I managed to talk, my voice breaking.  "Papasang kdrama ah!"

"They tried to convince me for an arranged marriage but I insisted not to do so or I will not take over. They allowed me but all my moves are closely monitored." Reagan added as if I did not say anything.

I just look at him as he continued airing his explanations.

He stood up from the couch and held my hands.

He touched the side of my face without breaking our eye contact.

"Please, give me another chance. " He begged and I was left speechless and dumbfounded again.

"I know, wala ako sa lugar para magdemand ng isa pang pagkakataon pero years without you in my life was miserable enough. " Reagan said and I can feel his warm breath on my face.

"Please leave." I said and looked away.

"Shai, please." Reagan pleaded again.

I remembered Miss Harriet.

How excited she was that day when she saw him to the point that she even hugged him and how he brought her a bouquet.

I did not dare to ask about them.

If his intentions were true, he will tell me everything without me asking.

"Just leave." I said firmly again.

Reagan gave me one last look before he pecked on my cheek.

My eyes widened when I felt his lips on my cheek for a brief moment.

I did not know that he left when Madonna waved her hand in front of me.

"Huy, bru! Anyare? Tulala again?" Madonna frowned looking at me.

"Uh, tara, kain tayo! Padeliver tayo!" I said abruptly and handed her a couple of bucks from my wallet.

"Sigurado ka? Akala ko ba nagtitipid ka?" Madonna asked again, her forehead creased with amusement.

"Gusto ko ng milktea atsaka potato corner ha! Yung sour cream!" I yelled as I went to my room to get my laptop.

What a day!
