Our Broken Hearts

"Bukas ang butones ng blouse mo.." I smirked, before I turned around to let her fix herself, even though it was a beautiful sight to see. Ganun ba kahirap ang naging first day niya? Magulo ang buhok, nakatanggal ang sapatos at bukas ang mga butones ng damit? Well. I guess masyado lang siyang nagpaka seryoso sa trabaho.

Pinigil kong muling mapangiti ng maalala ang tagpo sa pantry kanina. I called her again after asking her to make a cup of coffee, para sana itanong kung naisend na niya ang hinihingi kong file, but then she did not answer. Hindi ko naman maintindihan ang sarili ko kung bakit lumabas pa ako ng opisina at sinundan siya sa pantry. Halos mamutla siya ng mabuhusan ako, and that face, how can I be mad with such angelic innocent face? Then she unconsciously took off her blazer and insisted to wipe my stained suit. I was suddenly taken aback when I saw her slim arms. Nakaramdam ako ng pagkailang, kaya naman mabilis na akong lumabas mula roon. I lived in the US for almost half of my life, so I'm used to see a lot of girls wearing almost nothing, but what I'm confused of is what I felt ng makita ko ang makikinis niyang braso. It was a different feeling, and a feeling I can't explain.

I can say that she did well for her first day, knowing she doesn't have any background when it comes to office job. She's smart, attentive and well mannered. Hindi ko alam kung anong pumasok sa isip ko at bigla ay naisipan kong gawin siyang secretary. But after that meeting, I never expected her to have so much ideas to say. Making me a little amazed. I know I'm a weird and a little hard to deal with sometimes, but I guess, she can be a good secretary.

"Ah..Sir, nandito na po tayo sa baba.." napalingon ako sa kanya ng marinig ang kanyang mahinang boses. My heart skip a bit when our eyes met. What's wrong with me? She does nothing, but there's a strange feeling whenever I look at her. Hindi ako nagpahalata, sa halip ay hindi na ako sumagot at nauna nang lumabas ng elevator. Hindi ko gusto ang nararamdaman ko, and I can't deal with this. Not now.

"Are you sure, na hindi magdadala ng barbie si Sapphire sa honeymoon ninyo?" Carlisle joked. Malakas na tawanan na naman ang narinig mula sa private lounge kung saan kami naroon. It was like a stag party for Giovanni, the only difference is, there's no strippers invited. Ofcourse, knowing Giovanni? Isa yata siya sa pinaka matino sa grupo. And now, his ready to tie the knot with his girlfriend Sapphire. The weirdest girl I've ever met. But I'm happy for both of them.

Si Gio na ang pangalawa sa grupo na lalagay sa tahimik. Well, I thought it was me, but I guess destiny won't let me. Inisang lagok ko ang isang shot ng scotch. We are supposed to celebrated the last days of Gio, being single. But here I am, ni hindi ako makasabay sa kasiyahan nila.

"That's why I love her, you know man. She's extraordinary.." I heard him said, before picking up his glass of light whisky. Gio doesn't drink. Well occasionally yes. But he is not a hard drinker.

"In three days, Giovanni will not be single anymore, isa isa na kayong nag aasawa, how about us?" inilibot ni Carl ang tingin sa akin at kay Constantine.

"Oh! I'm sorry man, I almost forgot you just had a break up..Damien.." Carlisle turned to me and I faked a smile. Ayokong pag usapan iyon sa ngayon. Because I know, I'm still frustrated. The only thing I'm not sure is , if I'm still hurting, or no.

"Hey..wait..wait..wait..maybe..maybe destiny didn't allow you to fall for a wrong person, maybe you and..maybe you and mia Bella were really destined for each other, right?" He said with an amazed face and sparkling eyes. Like he was so sure on what he said. I look at him with disbelief.

"And what made you think that, Carl? Tell me, you believe in destiny?" I smirked. But wouldn't deny the fact that it made me wonder.

"No. But in your case? Yes. What do you think, Xave?" At humanap pa talaga ng kakampi.
