CHAPTER 5

"Maybe they use a condom."

"How many times has something happened to you??"

I feel like I want to be buried in the ground because of their questions. What the hell did Ethan and I get into? I don't know if I will regret the lie we told or not.

"What kind of questions are those!"

"Look at how cute they are when they talk together!"

"You are so adorable, You are perfect for each other." Ethan and I both faked a smile. 

A few more minutes passed and they asked the two of us questions and we answered with lies.

We almost couldn't answer when mom asked questions about the woman Ethan was with because mom sometimes sees Ethan with a woman and Tita sometimes sees me with a man.

Of course, Ethan also has female acquaintances and there are many who like him as a girl, very close and very close to him. When it comes to the man, Ethan is good at keeping secrets, he is very careful that no one will know and recognize him when he and his man go out.

I had many ex-boyfriends and Ethan has also had many ex-boyfriends but we never once told our parents, because we are not serious about them. Then what's more Ethan, how is he going to introduce a boyfriend, right? It's a secret that he's gay. Our parents might even faint when they find out that what they thought was a prince also wants a prince.

Just like stuff, when you don't want it anymore then throw it away or leave it. We just want to have fun, and enjoy our moment right now. When you are already married, have a husband, and have children, you have so many responsibilities. Sometimes you forget to have fun because you put your family first.

"Hey?"

"Heaven!" I stopped thinking and looked at Ethan.

"W-What??" I want to ask.

We are now in my room and it's late. Our parents said that we should sleep next to each other, Tito and Tita are here to spend the night.

"You're not listening?"

"No! I'm listening." Trying not to get caught that I'm lying but I don't think he'll believe me because he knows me better than myself.

"Really? So, what did I say?"

"I forgot." I covered my mouth to stop laughing.

"I knew it!" I swallowed as he slowly approached as if I knew what he was going to do.

"Wait, Ethan, d-don't do that--" He suddenly tickled my side so I laughed.

"S-Stop it, Ethan!" I said breathlessly and he stopped.

"You...you'll gonna k-kill me damn. Do you want me... to die laughing huh!" I said to him breathlessly.

"Was it about what happened early? Is that what you're thinking?" He asked and I nodded.

"Aren't you mad at me?" I frowned at him.

"Mad? What do you mean?"

"I mean because the man I want you to marry is the one you love and love you but instead of that... you ended up marrying me. Your one and only gay best friend."

"Rather than me marrying that Owen! It's better that I marry you. Don't you want to?"

"Of course, you're better off, you're not toxic like the other girls and boys there! Then if we live together in the same house, we won't have any problems."

"I thought about that too! And when we find the one, the one we were meant to be, we can get divorced right! Isn't easy??" I smiled at him.

"Yes, it is!" How many times did we catch up and laugh?

Suddenly we were stopped by someone knocking on the door. "Ethan and Heaven, stop flirting now!"

"Go to sleep okay, I love you!"

It was mommy and Tita's voices.

For a few seconds, the surroundings were quiet and I slowly looked at Ethan, he did the same. "Flirt, pfft..." We laughed softly.

"Did you lock the door?" He asked me.

"Yes, I locked it because our parents may suddenly come in and do something weird. You know our parents they have weird thoughts." 

"Let's go to sleep, I'm sleepy." He said and lay down properly.

I lay down and tried to sleep, I turned over and closed my eyes. A few minutes passed and I still couldn't fall asleep.

They say when you can't sleep someone is thinking about you. When I really find out who you are, I will strangle you!!

I picked up my cell phone when someone texted me suddenly.

From Jacob: Heavan, I miss yu!

Heavan? Who's Heavan??

From Jacob: Come back to me please Heaben!!

He wants me to come back and then he looks angry?! And is he dumb? He types my name in wrong spelling! I think he wants me to bury him alive in our yard right now!

To Jacob: Have you been thinking about me?

He replied in just a few seconds

From Jacob: I've b been thinkingg about... you a lot since t hese past few Days

I don't know whether to laugh or be annoyed. It's obvious that he's drunk now, his text is erratic. I know Jacob very well. Hmm, he's the only one who is the worst when it comes to being a boyfriend, so that's all.

To Jacob: God Jacob let me sleep! Stop thinking about it and I don't want you anymore okay!

"Who is that?"

"It's Jacob-- damn!" I covered my mouth because my voice got louder.

"Ethan why did you surprise me?!" He looked at me as if he was saying that he didn't surprise me.

"Why aren't you asleep? Who are you texting?" He suddenly asked and tried to peek at my phone.

"Jacob wants to get back together," I explain to him.

"Is that man bothering you??" I nodded.

He held out his hand and I gave him my cell phone. Suddenly my phone rang and he immediately answered it.

[Heaven, p-pleaseee??? Come back to me!! I won't be jealous of you anymore I promise, I won't say anything bad to him so please...] I heard Jacob's voice on the other line.

I just broke up with him because he was always jealous of Ethan and when he was jealous he keeps saying anything that comes to his mind to Ethan. And he is still trying to defame Ethan to me and defame me to Ethan. I'm just disgusted by his behavior!

"Hey, Jacob! Don't you plan to stop my best friend huh!!" Ethan's face was obviously disgusted now.

[Oh? Hey... Heaven's best friend huh?? Is that you!!? You are already dating, aren't you? You really do like Heaven from the start, I'm right! Are you two f*cking sleeping next to each other?!] I feel like I want to punch him in the mouth for insulting us.

"You're drunk, it's better to sleep it off and wake up to the fact that Heaven doesn't want you anymore." Ethan calmly said to him.

"You know Jacob, there are many more women out there," I said and I heard him laugh.

[You two are really together! Is that why you don't want to come back Heaven because you already have Ethan?!]

"We're both getting married so stop chasing her Jacob!" He said seriously and hung up, I saw he blocked Jacob's number before he gave me my phone.
