Days have gone by but still, he remains in my mind whenever I lie on my bed.
For six days, my world became his. He had become an occupant of my sanctuary, the place I hide myself whenever I get into trouble or whenever something scares me to death.
And whenever I realize every morning that he is already gone, I cannot help but feel empty. It's like a half of you has been taken away after waking up from a good and memorable dream about someone very close to your heart.
It was a mere 6-day dry run but I have discovered a lot about him and myself. There are things that I thought we were not compatible, but it seems like after almost three years, I kept on discovering hidden things about him that compliments me.
---
It began last Valentines Day. I thought he forgot that special occasion since he was more preoccupied with his self-created illness than me. At its worst, I almost exchanged him for a moment's intimacy with someone else. I even betted that theres an 85% chance Id fuck up that evening. But I held on, hoping he would eventually realize what he missed. I held to the remaining 15% chance I'd keep myself for him, knowing he might surprise me with another of his dramatic text when evening comes.
And he did shortly before dinner.
He complained that his siblings doesnt realize that he was sick. That he was recuperating from a trangkaso he had a week before. They kept on asking him to do some favors for them, which they can do themselves. When I called him, Phanks was crying. He told me that he wanted to leave house and stay with me until his anger had subsided.
And even though I am not sure what my mother and sister would say when they find out phanks would be staying with us, I nevertheless told him to pack up for I would be meeting him that evening.
In the end, my Valentines Day wasn't that disappointing as I previously anticipated.
---
I can see the worry on my mom's face when he saw phanks, especially when she found out that Phanks brought a lot of things with him.
But being a good host that we are, she just ignored her thoughts. Besides, my sister would be gone for two weeks so its easy to make an excuse that Phanks would be staying in to keep us company.
However, for some reasons, my buddy told my mom that he just had a trangkaso, which worried my mom even more. That evening mother asked me not to let phanks sleep on my bed.
Which of course, I ignored.
---
For two days, Phanks never left my room except to eat or go to the bathroom. But he assured me that after he regained more of his strength he would go back to school.
The maids were quite nice to him as well. They never complained whenever phanks wore my shirt or tops, or whether he wore my shorts or used my towel. While at work, I called home to check whether my guest have eaten his breakfast or he skipped it out of shyness.
He became part of the house and everyone became used to him.
---
While at work, he enjoyed the perks I was enjoying at home.
My TV was at his disposal, even my porns which I kept away from him whenever he visits. In his stay, I discovered that we have the same passion for watching Discovery Channel and National Geographic. He loves nature and animals. Because of him, I voted for Keanna Reeves to stay in Big Brother's House.
And since we stayed at the same room, we can make love anytime we wanted. However since our schedules conflicted all the time, its either we slept or one of us is out of the house. Either way, we were one and everyone supported us - indirectly. Even my mom started to be concerned about him during his stay at home.
Saturday came and I thought he would be leaving that evening. But for some reasons, he decided to spend the last night with me. That night, he gave me what I've been begging all the time. For once, I've been a bot again in exchange for giving him the best job I have done so far. If only I could tell him that a bot at least every two weeks ensures my overall satisfaction... Then I guess I would never have any business in G4M or other websites that divides my full attention to him.
---
He left home while I was still at work.
Before he left, he personally paid a courtesy call to my mom, thanking her for all the kindness and warmness she showed to him. My mom in return told me what happened, and in her eyes I saw an approval from her.
I know, she might have an idea about us. The mere fact a bi friend of mine is a classmate of my sister somehow gives them a thought about the people I am hanging around with. Besides, except for some of the girls that have been linked to me way back in college, I have never introduced a girl friend in the family.
It would take some time before Phanks would return home. I for one realized that I cannot compromise my independence for a very long time. At the same time, I know that I cannot control him that much anymore.
In his stay, I've felt how he sleeps more soundly and securely beside me. The whole time he was there, I never heard him complain about his hypochondriac tendencies. He was well taken care of, perhaps if he stayed a bit longer, we might even add some fats to his very lean body.

Six days is such a short time to know a lover better.
But in those six days, between heaven and hell of being with him and sometimes hating him at the same time...
I found my own relationship's perfection.
It was one of those bliss moments nobody would ever rival in this lifetime.
