"Ashanti! Stop playing with your pen!" saway sa akin ni Ryn habang nasa loob kami ng coffee shop dahil na rin nag-aya ang mga ito na kumain ng lunch. I actually thought we would go to a restaurant but they opted to just stay at the coffee shop. I brought my laptop, notebook and pen since I need to create a presentation next week for potential partners.

Dad asked me to do this and I gladly said yes. Mas mabuti na maaayos namin ang lahat ng mas mabilis para mabalik na rin ang pera na ininvest ng mga Monteverde. We should buy their shares soon.

The sooner things get better, the sooner he will leave.

Mas mabuti naman din talaga kung aalis na ito.

"You kept on spacing out, what happened ba?" Anj asked me before she took a bite on the cookie she was holding.

"Sa?" I asked her.

Sabay naman silang tumingin sa akin at bakas na bakas sa mga mukha nila ang pang-iintriga kung ano ba talaga ang nangyari sa akin. Kumunot ang noo ko habang nakatingin sa kanilang dalawa.

I was unsuccessful in finding them when we went to Blue's Haven. I saw Cloud, though. I saw him and I kind of reminisced about what happened to us before.

Ms lalo ko lang naiisip na kaya lang naman lumapit sa akin ay para makapaghiganti sa nangyari noon sa aming dalawa.

I dumped him. I insulted him... I made him see that I really didn't want him... it was all in the past, though. Hindi ko naman din inisip na magkikita kaming dalawa matapos ang mga nangyari noon. Napakaliit ng chance dahil hindi naman nasa iisang circle ang pamilya namin.

I know I am at fault but... I did that for him...

That's something he didn't know.

"Yeah, what happened when you went home alone?" Ryn asked as she sipped on her drink. I looked at her and frowned, I rolled my eyes before looking at my notes. I just scribbled some ideas already so I can pitch these ideas to Dad. Mamaya ko na lang siguro aayusin ang mga ito pagbalik ko sa opisina dahil wala naman akong trabahong matatapos kung kasama ko si Anj at Ryn sa totoo lang.

"Nothing, I just went alone," I said before putting my notebook and pen in my bag. Dinampot ko na lang din muna ang phone ko para mag check ng emails para hindi ako matambakan sa mga kailangan ko na mareplyan.

Hindi ko magawang sabihin sa kanilang dalawa na kasama si Cloud at ito ang naghatid sa akin. I am sure as hell that they will just use that to tease me. Knowing Ryn and Anj, they missed me so much that they will make fun of that information.

"Aren't you all curious why Cloud chose your company?" tanong ni Anj sa akin maya-maya. Kumunot naman ang noo ko sa kanya.

"I actually don't know. I mean, why us, right? And that's what I am trying to find out," I replied before leaning on my chair. I took a quick look at my watch to check the time.

"You know, I read some articles about their company. They are really well-known in terms of acquiring businesses. Based on the articles, they started investing, owning some shares, but in the end, they will have the full power and they will get the business," sabi ni Anj. Tinapik naman ito ni Ryn bago tumingin sa akin.
