LALISA'S POV

"Okay ka lang?" Alalang tanong ni Jisoo.

Tinignan ko siya saglit bago ituon ang atensyon ko sa kalsada.

"Oo naman."

"Sure ka?"-Jisoo

"Yes."

"Aah," tumingin siya sa mga kamay ko kaya napatigil ako sa pagtap sa manibela. "Okay, sabi mo eh." She sounded un-convince.

"Okay lang talaga ako, J. I... kinakabahan lang ako when we get to the city."

"Kinakabahan ka? Why?"-Jisoo

"Kasi hindi ko natawagan si Lee."

She pouted, "alam naman niyang one week tayo dun ah?"

"Yes. Pero I told him na tatawagan ko siya right away."

"Eh? Im sure he will understand."-Jisoo

I faked a laugh. "Lee is the most understanding person I know." I glanced at Jisoo who only frowned at me. "I'll be fine, I promise."

"I hope I can help."-Jisoo

"Trust me, I will let you if you can."

"Harsh ba talaga si Lee?" She asked turning to face me. "I heard your manager is the most serious one in the Entertainment."

"The rumour is true. Pero I am sure, Lee is just doing his job." Sagot ko naman at saka tumingin sa kabilang side when Chaeng's car drove on our side. "Oh shoot, this is where we part ways."

"Oh yes! The highway!"-Jisoo

Kumaway kami ni Jisoo sa kabilang car. Jennie blew Jisoo a kiss kaya napasandal ako sa upuan ko.

"I'll see you at work." I said to no one before turning to the right side of the road. "Jisoo, thank you for everything."

"No, thank you." She smiled, "you really made my week. It's the best week of my life."

"I'm glad I made it your best week." I whispered. "You made mine the most unforgettable one. Lahat ng first time ko during the week nandun ka."

Namula siya. She suddenly looked out the window and sniffed.

"Sorry," she suddenly said. "I'm just so happy right now."

"Haha. I get it!" I glanced at her and added. "If hindi man kita pansinin pag nagkita tayo, alam mo na ah?"

"Ganyan naman kayong mga celebrity, no pansin. Kahit kilala niyo yung tao." Pairap niyang sabi. "Chaeng is like that sa school. But she have her reasons."

"We have our reasons." I hold my hand out at kaagad niya namang hinawakan iyon. "I had a great time with you, Jisoo."

Mabilis akong hinalikan sa pisngi ni Jisoo bago bumaba ng sasakyan. Hindi na siya lumingon pa at nagtuloy-tuloy ng maglakad palayo sa sasakyan ko.

Sighing, I put my forehead against the wheel. I feel more anxious than excited.

Kaagad akong nag reverse at bumalik sa highway. Then I took the high road where Chaeng drove off to.

"Here we go..." I whispered to myself when I stopped in front of the familiar family house.

I should have said my goodbyes before driving away.

"Magpapaalam lang ako..." bulong ko sa sarili when I climb the stairs. "I needed to say goodbye to Jennie."

Bago pa ako kumatok ay bumukas ang pintuan. My heart stopped from beating...
