-----

The past two weeks had been hectic. Pagkatapos ng press conference ni senator ay medyo nawala na yung masamang image na pinalabas tungkol sakin ng article na pakana nina Nia. Though hindi pa din talaga sigurado kung sya nga ang may gawa noon. People started to sympathize with me na para bang lahat sila ay meron talagang pakialam sa akin. Pupusta naman akong limot na nila akong lahat after a month.

Nia transferred back to the exclusive school she came from. Hindi na ako nagka-chance na linawin sa kanya yung tungkol sa article dahil bigla na lang syang nawala. Its as if she didn't made a mess with my life. Two weeks na din akong Bonnie-free. Sa bahay ni mommy Soledad pa din kasi ako umuuwi. And I'm actually thinking of staying there for good considering the way senator and I were taking steps into establishing a father and daughter relationship.

Asher and I became more and more popular as a couple. Ilang t.v stations na ang nag-alok samin na mag guest sa kanila pero lagi kaming tumatanggi. Parehas naming hindi gusto. My reason was, well, ayako naman talagang nae-expose ako sa madaming tao kahit dati pa. Asher's reason was ayaw nyang sumikat ako dahil baka daw magkaroon sya ng maraming karibal sa akin. Ulaga talaga. Ako nga tong ang dami nang karibal sa kanya. Wala, gwapo eh. Kinginers. The only thing that kept the people updated about us was the blog, which was now not about Asher and me only but the rest of the pitong puto. May isang picture kasi namin ni Asher na pinost doon na kita sa background si Storm na naka-side view. Meron ding naka photobomb si Hope. People got curious who those guys are. Even the name of the blog was changed. From "The Truth Behind Athena Hizon and Asher Ruiz" to "Empire Zero Heirs". It was constantly updated by the same blogger. Sina Demi at Winter ang nagse-send ng mga pictures at captions na ina-upload lang nung blog owner. Storm personally asked for our permission kung pwede daw kami kuhanan ni Winter ng pictures from time to time dahil pangarap daw talaga ni Winter maging photographer and the thought of her personally taken pictures being posted and get a lot of comments and reviews excite her to the bone. Pumayag naman kami. Anything that can make that sweet kid happy.

Pero gaya nga ng sabi sa kanta, "even the sun sets in paradise". Finals na sa school and our professors wouldn't cut us some slack. Pero mas ikinatuwa ko naman yon. Even after finding out na anak ako ng senador, hindi pa din nagbago ang pakikitungo nila sakin. Mas gusto ko yon. The respect I have for them doubled. Pero ang buong university ay nagulantang nung nalaman nilang mga anak ng may ari ng Empire Zero sina Asher. Like me, they only saw the seven of them as typical rich kids. Napapansin naman daw nilang mayaman talaga yung pito but they never expected them to be super rich. They were even amazed dahil all time, may mga bahagi daw pala ng alta silang nakakasalamuha araw araw pero hindi nila alam. That just proved that the seven of them were down to earth. They can adjust with depending on the people around them. Hindi nila masyadong pinapaglandakan na mayaman sila. They were all humane.

"Tara na Athena!" Asher said. Aalis kami ngayon para i-shoot yung music video na project namin. We were going to make a video of the song We Like To Party by BIGBANG. Napanood ko yung music video talaga nung kanta and I must say, nag-enjoy sila don. We should enjoy this also. Okay lang naman dahil hindi naman namin kailangan kantahin talaga. Gagawa lang kami ng video tapos ipapatong yung kanta and that's it!

Nakasakay kami sa elevator nang magulat kami dahil tumigil yon sa lobby.

"Bakit dito tumigil?" Tanong ni Jareth. "Sa basement dapat. Nandun yung mga sasakyan."

"No." Sabi ni Demi at hinila na kami palabas. "Hindi tayo gagamit ng car ngayon. We will commute." All smiles nyang sabi.
