Calum, a renowned romance writer and a low-key country music enjoyer who also plays guitar is a very private person. He may have his circle of friends but he trusts no one with his deep-diving secrets. For him, it's one of his greatest treasures. It...
CURIOSITY gushed over Letty as they got home from their ice cream date with her Dad and her twin sister. That night, she searched Mr. Carl Lumaria's Tappster account. He's not that hard to find since there are only five people on the site with related names to him. She checked them one by one until she finally found him. As what she has seen on the said man's recent timeline, Letty already knows what the last entry of Mr. Carl Lumaria's diary is.
"No wonder that the brat noticed you. Guwapo ka naman pala talaga," she commented.
She leaned on her gaming chair, hands occupied with her rubric puzzle as she stared at the man on her screen. She smiled at him brightly. The said man has a gorgeous smile and he looks good too. She's pretty sure that once Jetty will saw this picture of him, the brat will eventually shriek. While Jetty saw him earlier, she was sure that she never saw him this close.
"I wanted to know how are you doing right now and kung bakit mo iniwan ang diary mo. Sa mga nabasa ko, you really love writing to Buddy but what's on your mind that time? I wish alam ko," she said while looking closely at the man's face.
Mr. Carl Lumaria is undeniably a treat if she's being honest. She is not keen on appreciating someone's beauty other than her Mom, her twin, and her Dad. This is something new to her and there is this urge within her, wanting to meet this man too. Maybe out of guilt? Maybe she wanted to say her genuine apology? She couldn't figure it out, not yet.
"Magagalit ka kaya kapag nalaman mong we invaded your precious space?" she asked at her computer screen, referring to the smiling man there.
"I guess ikaw ang tipong nakatatakot magalit at mapikon." She chuckled a little. "Just look at that strong features... it reminds me of myself."
Letty wanted to think that the said man is quite protective too. Mr. Lumaria is giving her that vibe and it's telling her not to mess up with him too but it's too late for that. She messes up with the raven-haired man already.
"You know what, Sir? I'm also protective. I may not be vocal about it but I would kill anyone who would dare to lay a finger on my twin sister." Her eyes lingers for a second. "Maybe you would like to kill me too for I have read half of your heart with my best intentions."
She chewed her bottom lip. "I'm sorry. I'm really sorry, Sir."
Sighing, she exited the tab,full of guilt. She then tucked herself to bed but she is not sleepy yet. Shedidn't know if she can still sleep after trespassing into someone's property.It's so rude of her and the thing that she even provoked her twin sister to dosuch thing isn't helping her at all.

JETTY couldn't sleep after how many times of turning and tossing into the bed. Frustrated, she sat up, rubbing her eyes with her hands. She forced herself to bed earlier but her mind is too occupied to even think of sleeping. She then decided to grab Mr. Carl Lumaria's notebook from her drawer and open the pages randomly. She's really eager to know the guy. What reason behind that, she didn't know.
As she was selecting random pages, the very familiar paper plane fell from the said notebook. She remembered that she have kept it and slipped that thing there. It has lots of doodles in it like the first time she saw it but it's beautifully crafted like how perfectly the paper plane was made. Shrugging, she slipped it back and select random pages again. She took time to read it.
She smiled, squealing a little after turning the pages. Her smile is too painful that it would tear up her face but the butterflies in her stomach is now partying. "Kilig na kilig ka na naman, Sir?"
Then she turned to another page again. Another giddy smile escapes her lips. "Bakit kasi hindi mo na lang siya hinalikan? Iyon ang mga napapanood ko sa k-drama. Kiss her to shut her up."
She didn't even know the both of them but she's feeling the butterflies partying in her stomach. Kilig overload is what she calls it. She has this strong instincts that Mr. Carl and Ms. Venus both feel the same way and her theory is that she is just using Mr. Arcel to make him jealous. "If tama ang theory ko, malamang na effective nga."
With a muffled tone, she giggles when she turned the other leaf again and again and again. She's seeing stars and hearts all over the pages. There are cute sketches there too. Mr. Carl Lumaria is great in art if she must say. It's cute and full of love, far from those earlier entries that he has written.
Maybe she's right. Mr. Carl and Ms. Venus are really meant for each other.
"I will ask Lettisha's one-week allowance if I win." She smirks evilly.
The next pages were all but happy memories with Mr. Carl and the love of his life going on a friendly date which is not so friendly from Mr. Carl's perspective. Accordingly, they go to arcades. They bake and cook together and they even have vacation with only the two of them. The following entries were full of hope and giddiness. She couldn't help but tickle a smile too.
