"I'm really sorry, Chloé. But my decision is final. I don't mean to hu--" Pak! Isang malakas na sampal ang dumapo sa pisngi ko.

"Jerk!" the woman yelled at me. Her face's masked with pure hatred. "The rumors were right, you're nothing but a great asshole, Ivanka!"

Lihim akong napangiwi dahil sa lakas ng impact ng sampal niya. Fuck, that hurts.

Nilingon ko ang kasama ko at nakita ko itong tawang-tawa. Remind me to fire him later.

"I hope karma strikes you big time, Ivanka. Playing with someone's feelings doesn't make you a cool woman. I hate you!" padabog niyang kinuha ang purse niya saka umalis ng Café.

Finally, another toxic wannabe exited my life. It's about time she did that. Thank god nakisama sa'kin ang panahon ngayon.

"And by that ladies and gentlemen, another crazy mad woman gone down. Thank you for my ted talk." sabi ng baklang secretary ko na si Yohan, lumipat ito ng upo sa pwestong iniwan ni Chloé at saka ngumisi.

"You know what to do, Yohan. Send her a diamond bracelet from Bvlgari with a slam-bam-thank you-ma'am-card."

"Ano na naman bang pangbobola ang isusulat ko sa card? Thank you for coming into my life but sadly we are not meant to be, ganern?"

"Anything, as long as it's forgivable."

"My god, madam. Pang pitong babae na 'to. Nauubusan na ako ng tula dahil dito."

"I'll raise your salary this month, huwag ka ng mag-reklamo dyan."

Yohan rolled his eyes, kapagkuwan may kinuha itong notepad sa folder at may isinulat doon. "How about this one, will she ever forgive you by this?" inabot nito sakin ang notepad na agad ko namang tinanggap at binasa.

Dear, Chloé.
Words can't express how saddened i am for our breakup. Please accept my last gift as a memory of our sweet yesterday. - Ivanka

"That will do." ibinalik ko na ang notepad kay Yohan saka sumimsim ng milk tea.

"Why did you break up with her by the way? Isn't this Chloé girl your favorite?"

"Nah she's getting into my nerves. You know i hate possessive girls like her."

"Kung sa bagay masyado ngang nakaka-irita ang isang 'yon. War freak at eskandalosa. Questionable pa rin kung ba't mo yun pinatulan e."

"Exactly." sagot ko saka bumuga ng hangin.

I love women alright. Hell yeah, I love their gorgeous giving bodies. But what I hated about them was their irritating conniving minds. Kung ganitong usapan na ay awtomatic wala ng kaamor-amor ang babae sa akin. Iniiwasan ko na ito at hinihiwalayan. Ayokong makulong sa ganitong klaseng pakikipag-relasyon. I want an open relationship, yung tipong kahit committed na ay may chance pa rin makipag-entertain sa iba. I want it that way.......before. Pero ngayon parang ayoko na, I don't even know why. Bigla na lang akong nagkaganito simula 'nong ma-meet ko si miss run-away girl.

"So what's my next appointment for today?" maya't-mayang tanong ko kay Yohan.

"Wait let me check." binuklat nito ang schedule planner para tignan. "So far madam nagawa mo na halos lahat maliban sa isa. 9 to 10 AM seminar with the Board of Directors, done. 11 to 12 PM lunch meeting with the clients, done. 1 to 2 PM Airport Visit, done. 3 to 4 PM breakup with Chloé, done. Your last schedule for today is breaking up with Merideth at V's Palace Ortigas Branch." nag-angat ito ng mukha. "Pupuntahan ba natin 'to ngayon o hindi?"

I groan inwardly. "Next week na yan, she's out of the country."

"Jeez, madam. Anong nakain mo at bigla mong hinihiwalayan ang mga baby girls mo? Nagsasawa ka na ba?"
