Chapter 11
Before going to Le Jules Verne I decided to drop off to a flowershop para may maibigay ako rito.


“Good morning madame, how may I help you?” tanong sakin ng babaeng nag-aayos sa mga bulaklak sa shop.


“Can you arrange me a bouquet of blue tulips?” I read the file once more before I went to sleep last night and found out that her favourite flower is tulips. I found out some interesting information about her but I still don’t have the answer why she doesn’t want to come  home.



“Sure madame, please wait while I arrange it” magalang na sabi nito.
Past six na nung lumabas ako sa hotel and I went directly to the nearest flowershop that I saw so that I wouldn’t be late, sakto by seven I would be there na.



Damn, am I stupid for not getting her number? Uhh nevermind, I’ll just get it later.



“Here’s your bouquet madame” magalang na saad nito. It looks fantastic, I like how it was arranged.

“How much is it?

“Three thousand madame” Naglabas ako ng limang libo at ibinigay itong lahat sa kaniya.

“I have a feeling that I’ll be here more often.” Nakangiting sabi ko. Really Hunter? Why? You’re gonna give her tulips everyday is that it? Well she prefer flowers over chocolates so probably yes.



Pagkatapos kong nakuha ang bulaklak ay dali dali akong pumasok sa sasakyan ko at pinasibad ito papunta sa restaurant.

“Good evening madame. Do you have a reservation?” the receptionist asked.



“No, but Harmony is expecting me.” Nakangiting sabi ko  rito.



“Ohh I’m sorry Miss Denisovich, please follow me” nahihiyang sabi nito.
She led me to a prime spot next to a window with the most breathtaking view in the restaurant. I’ve been sitting here for almost ten minutes ngunit wala pa ring Harmony ang lumalabas.



“Waiter” tawag ko sa lalaking malapit sa aking kinaroroonan.


“Can I get a bottle of champagne please, and can you confirm if Miss Enriquez is here” utos ko sa lalaki. He is somehow familiar. I think he’s the same person that I asked about the whereabouts of Harmony the last time I went here. Umalis na ito at hindi nagtagal ay bumalik din na may haawak na bote ng champagne.



“She’ll be here any minute madame”

“Okay


I was busy admiring the view when someone spoke.



“Hi?” nahihiyang bati nito sa akin. She’s wearing a simple blue dress at hinayaang nitong nakalugay ang kaniyang buhok.




“Hi to you too. You look so gorgeous” I complimented her, hindi naman nakaligtas sa paningin ko ang pamumula nang kaniyang pisngi. I smirked at the sight, this is definitely  gonn be a piece of cake.



“T-thank you”


“Oh wait, here, flowers for you”
Kinuha ko sa upuan ang bulaklak at ibinigay ito sa kaniya. Amazement can be seen in her eyes.


“How did you know that tulips is my favourite? Manghang tanong nito sakin.


“Wild guess I think. I’ m happy that you liked it.” I shrugged my shoulders at her.
