VICKY's POV

When I'm ready to sleep I reach my phone and texted the one who called me yesterday.

To: +63917*******

Let's meet at Fortune Restaurant around 9:00am. Thanks. Goodnight.

*message sent

Then I also texted Gabriel that I won't be at the office tomorrow.

*1 SMS

From: Gabriel

Okay! Just rest and please stay at home. I have a full-sched tomorrow. I will go to your house after my appointments. Goodnight Babe. I love you.

I turned off my phone and put it on my bedside table then sleep.

LORAINE's POV

I'm already here at the said venue 10mins before 9am. I reserved two seats so that when she come, everything is settled.

I really hope she will come.

VICKY's POV

I feel butterflies on my stomach. Hindi ko alam kung bakit ako kinakabahan, yes because she is very anonymous. What if she is Amelia?

No, how did she knew me in the first place?

I'm near at the restaurant trying to calm my chest.

I parked the car at the last area.

Breath In.

Breath Out.

She is not Amelia.

I shift to my seat and walk through the Entrance.

Then suddenly I saw Lorraine. What is she doing here?

Why do I care?

I pace to her direction and draw a smile.

"Hi Loraine, anong ginagawa mo dito? Why you're alone?" I greeted.

I'm expecting annoying answer but then

"I'm the one who called you last time. Remember?"

"What? I thought she was-"

"Who?" She cut me.

"Never mind. Anyway, why did you called me? Is there anything wrong?" I asked her.

"Uhhm..."

LORAINE's POV

"Uhhm... Please sit first, Ate Vicky."

I'm not used to call her 'Ate'. I can do it! For your Kuya, Loraine! Be nice to her, Loraine. Don't be bitchy.

She sat in front of me. She looks shocked.

"Is there something wrong, Ate?" I asked.

"How'd you call me?" Naeexcite pa niyang sabi.

I smiled and say

"Ate Vicky."

Her smile gets wider.

"Uhhm Ate Vicky..." I paused. "Actually, gusto ko lang makipag-ayos sa'yo. Sorry for being rude to you. Ayoko lang masaktan ulit si Kuya Riel. Yes, I'm being so fast and straightforward Ate Vicky, but please I don't want to happen again the worst nightmare he had. He's been through a lot. Please help him recover and be happy again." I continued.
