Myrah's POV


You know that cliché moment when you find yourself seated with two godly handsome men in a single table?



Where they just stare down at each other and you're stuck there in the middle?



Thinking that you're probably the reason for the tension?



Tas feel mo na ang haba na ng buhok mo?



Haha...



Yeah, that's me right now.



I know any woman would be glad to be in my shoes.



I know.



But there is only one thing I can say.



Exchange tayo please.



For a little bit of context, Kieth invited V and me for dinner to celebrate the successful end of filming. Hindi naman kami makatanggi since he's still the boss, so here we are.



It shouldn't be a big deal but it actually is.



From one side of the table, I see Kieth lift up his glass of wine.



"Feel free to order anything you like. It's on me." Sabi ni Kieth habang umiinom ng wine at nakangiti sa amin.



V scoffed, "Don't mind if I do."



He grabbed the menu and started flipping through like it was the most natural thing in the world.



What?



Am I the only one uncomfortable here?



Tiningnan ako ni Kieth at dali-dali kong kinuha ang menu na nasa harap ko while looking relaxed.



I pretended to read while slowly holding the menu up para hindi niya ako makita.



Ah, shit.



Ano ba dapat kong gawin sa sitwasyon na 'to?



I can't look at either of them in the eye.



I mean, pagkatapos ng nangyari sa filming kanina, how could I?



Kieth just did an impressively elaborate stunt to make me feel all emotional and he used V in the process.



How can he be so cruel?



How can I be so cruel?



Alam ko na walang idea si V sa mga nangyari kanina pero kinakain parin ako ng konsensya ko.



How could I do that to V?



"Myrah."



V's voice interrupted my thoughts and I stiffen up.



Binaba ko ang menu at nakita ko ang waiter sa gilid ng table na nakatingin sa akin, paper and pen in hand.



I realized na ako nalang pala ang hinihintay nila.



"Ah, um, I... I'll have this please." I quickly point at the restaurant's best seller without a second thought.



The waiter wrote down my order and left. He took the menus away so nawalan ako ng pantabon sa mukha.
