"Ma'am Cherry, ang ganda pala ng boses mo, grabe bakit hindi ka naging singer," I laugh at what Lea said, I can't imagine myself as a singer in profession.
"Oo nga ma'am, sobrang ganda niyo na nga po, tapos pati boses niyo sobrang ganda din, bakit hindi po kayo nag-artista?" sambit ng kasama ni Lea na staff din ata ng corporation.
I just laugh at them and continue walking through the auditorium ngayon kasi yung seminar, right now, I'm wearing a simple white tube with a gray coat paired with a pink pencil cut and simple peach heels, and a little body bag for my wallet and phone.
"Dito po ang upuan natin ma'am," tinuturo ni Lea ang upuan na may nakalagay na number kung saan kami naka asign na uupo and I look at the chair beside me may nakasulat na CEO DLM which means dito uupo si Survey.
Minutes passed by when the seminar was about to start Survey was still not there.
I look around trying to see if he's here already and just talking to someone but to he is not.
The seminar started he's still not here, where is he?
The seminar ended and he didn't show up, so I guess, may mas impornante siyang inaasikaso, ang akala ko pa naman din makakasama ko siya kanina
I was walking when my phone rang. It's Blace she's calling.
"Best!" Inilayo ko kaagad ang phone ko sa tenga ko ng sinagot ko ang tawag niya sobrang lakas ng boses talaga nitong babaeng to.
"Anong problema?" I ask, "May nangyari ba kay Milo?" tanong ko, kinabahan naman ako ng maisip ko na baka may nangyari sa anak ko.
"Best, I've been harassed," mangiyak-ngiyak na sabi niya sa kabilang linya.
"Panong naharass ka?" naguguluhan ako sa sinasabi nya kaya napatigil ako sa paglalakad.
"Best, kasi tangina laging pumupunta dito yong demonyong Cj na yon at best!" while saying those words, alam kong naglulupasay na 'yon doon sa bahay.
Ano nanaman bang ginawa mo Cj.
"What did he do?" I asked. "Best, hinahalikan niya ako bigla biglaaaaa wah best putik-------" natigilam ako, I laugh at what she said.
"Halik lang pala eh," I said and start to walk again para makabalik na sa hotel room ko gabi na'din kasi natapos yung seminar.
"Best kasi...ano kasi ano---," hindi nya matuloy yong sasabihin niya "Kasi, ano what?" I ask.
"Best, nagugustuhan ko ah, tangina hindi ko alam, pero Best anong nangyayari sa akin?"
This is love, I guess. "It's love Blace," I uttered.
"Best, hindi pwedi 'yon noh, loyal ako sa BL," pinaglaban niya ang paging in denial niya, "Loyal ka, pero nasarapan ka sa halik ni Cj?" I tease her.
"Gaga, wag na nga ito si Milo, kausapin mo." I talk to my son, telling him that I'll be back after 2 days and he just talk, kahit bulol-bulol siya, Oh, how I miss my son.
After the call sakto naman malapit na ako sa elevator, I decided to call Cj, kamustahin ko lang siya.
While waiting for the elevator.
*Calling Cj*
"Yow, napatawag ka Cherrypot," sagot agad niya sa kabilang linya.
"Ano tong nirereklamo ni Blace? na naharass daw siya?" I try to make a serious tone, kahit na I really want to tease him na.
"Ikaw na pala yung abogabong pinagmamalaki niya sa'kin, anong kaso ba ang sinampa niya Atty. Villaruel at tatanggapin ko ng buong puso," I laugh at what he said, napaka sweet naman pala nitong kaibigan kong ito.
"Nah, hindi ko itutuloy ang sinampa niyang kaso basta siguraduhin mo lang na mapapasayo siya," I teases, hearing him laugh in the other line.
"Sa akin na siya, hindi mo alam?" he said with powerful confidence tho.
"Wow, that's great hahaha, I miss you both, let's eat when I get back there."
"Oo naman,"
"Cj, tara na magsasara na yung site, sandali Cherry, tinatawag na ako ni Bench eh," I was about to talk when the elevator open and Survey is inside.
Pumasok na ako kasama siya and continue listening to Cj.
"Magsasara na yung site, at dadaan pa ako sa kaibigan mong pakipot," I laugh at that "Ingat ka dyan sa manila ahhh, tawag ka lang sa'kin, if you need anything, bye bye love u."
"Yeah, take care of Milo for me, bye love you too." As I ended the call I feel like Survey is looking at me.
"Your boyfriend?" he asks.
Well, Boy Friend ko naman talaga si Cj diba.
"Yeah," sagot ko and I put my phone inside my bag.
I see his face darken when I answer him.
"I wasn't able to join the seminar, because something came up with Aubrey," kaya pala wala siya.
"Ahh ganon ba, kamusta siya? ok ba siya?" I ask.
"She's just stressed, because of some paparazzi but she's fine now."
"Bakit kaya hindi ka na bumalik 'don, para masamahan mo siya?" iniisip ko din kasi, kawawa si Aubrey kung stress siya sa showbiz life n'ya tapos buntis pa siya, then hindi niya pa kasama yung asawa n'ya.
"I have duties here," he said those words looking straight at me.
Umiwas ako ng tingin kasi grabe yung tingin niya, when he said the word duties. It sends me daouble meanings, na hindi ko naman dapat iniisip.
"Ahh ganun ba, Oo nga CEO ka, I forgot," I said, trying to lighten up the tension of his stare.
Thank god, the elevator opens and I step out at ganun din siya. "Dito ka din sa floor na ito?" I ask him.
"Yes, the room right next to yours, is mine," teka, akala ko sa special room siya or VIP something siya nakacheck in.
"Ahh," wala akong masabi kaya naglakad na ako papuntang kwarto ko.
Pero tumigil ako, at humarap sa likuran ko para kausapin siya pero nasa likod ko lang siya kaya bumangga ako sa kanya. He held my waist to stop me from falling, because I bump into him and it makes me lose my balance, we were so close to each other that I can almost smell his breath, it smells like mint.
Nakatigtig lang kami sa isa't-isa ng biglang may bumukas na pinto, kaya agad akong umalis sa bisig niya at naglakad na papasok ng kwarto ko, hindi na nag-abalang tumingin pa pabalik sa kanya.
That was close.
