Prologue

PROLOGUE

" Miss Swift, may appointment po kayo with Director Guzman at 2 PM. " my secretary told me while i am on the gym doing my workouts.

" Who's Director Guzman and what about my appointment with him? " i said while i'm wiping out my sweats.

" Siya po yung kumuha sayo as their model on their airlines po. Papag-usapan niyo raw po yung about sa photoshoots. " sabi niya. I drank on my tumbler and took my towel to take a bath. It's 12 PM and i haven't eat my lunch yet tapos may appointment pa ako.

" Brina, tell them i'll be late. May dadaanan lang ako na friend. " sabi ko, Brina is my secretary.

" But they said that you should arrive in time because they don't want to waste their time. "

" Then cut the deal kung ayaw nila naghintay. It's their loss. " sabi ko at umalis na.

" HURRY up, Athena, may appointment pa ako. " i shouted at Athena, my friend for five years.

" Hurry up your mukha, Scar, ikaw nga itong always so bagal magmove. " she said with her baluktot na tagalog na palaging masakit sa tenga.

" Do talk in english kung nahihirapan ka magtagalog. It's so masakit sa tenga. " sabi ko at nagaya sakanya. She just rolled her eyes at me and gave me the box.

" Make sure that this is what i ordered, huh. Mamaya scam ka pala. " sabi ko, trying to tease her.

" EXCUSE ME- !? "

" Bye, Thena, i'll send you my orders again. Mwa. " sabi ko at tumatawang lumabas ng unit niya.

NANG nakarating ako sa meet up place, which is at their company, nakita ko na gulat sila nang makita ako. Its like they never thought i'll be here.

Hello, its just me.

Habang naglalakad ako ay ngumingiti ako sa mga nakatingin at tumatawag sa akin. I should have brought Brina beside me so i won't feel awkward.

" Miss Swift! " and i heard Brina's voice calling me. Lumapit agad ako sakanya at sabay kaming pumasok sa isang opisina.

" Good afternoon. " bati ko pagpasok at sabay sabay naman silang nagsitayo. They looked at me from head to foot in awe.

" Oh my G. Scarlet Swift in this office. " hindi makapaniwalang sabi ng isang babae, i smiled at her.

" Hi, my apologies for being late. " sabi ko sakanila. But they just smiled and said it's okay.

" You're really good looking. Perfect." sabi ng lalaking nasa edad mid-fourties. I smiled at him. I am wearing my high waisted maong pants and a tube with my designer heels. My hair are also in a high ponytail and a little curl below it. I wore my gold round earings putted a light make up.

When the meeting started, sobrang out of the earth ang isip ko. Parang ibon na lumilipad kung saan saan kaya hindi ko masyado naintindihan, narinig ko lang na kailangan nakasuot ako ng Cabin crew suit at may hawak na maleta.

We are in the middle of discussion when a man in his tacked- in polo, branded pants with a gucci belt and a balenciaga shoes entered the room.

" Sorry i'm late, have y'all already started? " he said with as he puts his shades behind his head.

I didn't recognized him at first, not until i heard his voice. He has changed a lot. Like a lot lot.

" Son, what took you so long? " sabi ni Director Guzman. He's his son?

" Come, meet Scarlet Swift, she will be our model on our airline poster. " sabi ni Director Guzman at tinuro ako kaya tumayo ako.

" Miss Swift, this is my son, he's a pilot, Captain Harry Gonzales. "

" My pleasure to meet you, Miss Swift. " he said as he reached his hands in front of me.

He had achieved his dream. He is now a Pilot. He chased what he think is a right choice. He is now in front of me again after five years. The guy whom i let go. The guy i met...

After the Rain.
