NEPHRITE's POV

I'm surprised to see Midnight here at Tea Party, what a strange coincidence, I didn't expect to see him here. I finally see this young man after he temporarily resigned as Jadeite's secretary several months ago.

I waved my hand for him to notice me, and he stopped walking, shocked to see me. I'm not sure why it took him so long to stay where he was, still staring in my direction. Can he still not believe I'm here, or has he not recognized me yet because I'm so far away?

I was about to call him when he abruptly continued walking and began approaching me.

I don't know why but it seems Midnight looks nervous right now or it's just my imagination? Does he thinking that i would hit or shot him on the head? Nah just kidding.

Pinanood ko lang siya na papalapit sa akin, nginitian ko ito nang tuluyan na siyang makalapit.

"Hey." I greeted.

"H--Hi, Milord." aniya na hindi makatingin sa akin ng maayos. Is he okay? Do i look scary that he can't look at me properly?

"What's with that expression of yours, Midnight? You don't seem look good, are you sick or what?" nag-aalalang ika ko sakaniya. May nangyari ba?

Nanlalaki ang mga matang tiningnan ako nito. 

"N--No, it's just...I did'nt expect that i would see you here in this place." aniya na may pag-aalinlangan sa pag ngiti nito. Tumango lamang ako saka ko pinagmasdan ang kabuuan niya. "So, what are you...doing here anyway?---I mean is...are you friends with Callen De La Rue?"

Tumango ako bago ko siya sagutin."Yes, He is one of our business partners and we became friends because we have the same hobby." ngiting wika ko.

Tumango siya at nagpalinga-linga ito sa paligid, gayon din ang ginawa ko dahil naninibago ako sa turan niya. May hinahanap ba siya? Oh wait!

"Oh yeah, how about you? How did you get here? Aren't the guests here the ones with children? Do you have a child?" tanong ko na nakapagpatigil sakaniya at natulalang tinitigan ako.

What? Did I say something I shouldn't have said? What's with that reaction?

THIRD PERSON's POV.

NAUBUSAN na ng mga salita si Midnight nang itanong ni Nephrite kung may anak na siya. Sa katunayan ay kaya naman niyang magpalusot ngunit bakit walang lumalabas na salita sakaniyang bibig? Kanina pa siya nauutal at hindi niya malaman kung ano ang nais niyang sabihin lalaking kaharap.

Napakunot-noo si Nephrite dahil kanina pa natulalang nakatingin sakaniya si Midnight na uutal-utal at paulit-ulit na iisang salita lamang ang binabanggit.

"Hey!" tinapik nito ang braso ni Midnight na nakapagpaigtad sa lalaki dahilan upang magising ang diwa nito. "Kung ayaw mong sabihin, edi don't." natatawang ani Nephrite dahil kanina pa wala sa sarili ang lalaking kaharap.

"I...I'm sorry." nahihiyang ani Midnight. "Yes--I mean no, I don't have children, I have my nieces and nephews with me." wika nito.

"I see, same with me. Kasama ko sina Azure, Garnet, Ametrine and Goshenite." ani Nephrite.
