Pagkagising ni Julie kinabukasan ay nakita niyang hindi na niya katabi ang nobyo.

She looked at her phone and saw that he had texted her.

Jirits 💙:

Hey Jirits 👋 I had to head back to my condo wala na ako damit eh hehe! I'll see you later sa office. 😘

Napabuntong hininga si Julie.

Hindi man lang siya ginising. But she knew he only didn't so he wouldn't disturb her sleep.

Ramdam niyang clingy talaga siya sa lalaki ngayon.

Siyempre bagong official na sila eh.

She wore a black slack and a sleeveless blouse which she topped with a black suit.

She let her hair down, not bothering to style it, she just let her brush do the work.

Matapos ay uminom lang siya ng kape. Wala siya sa mood mag breakfast at namimiss nanaman niya si Elmo.

She got into her car and headed for work.

Sa basement parking siya dumeretso.

Her heel lacked on the pavement as she got down from her car. She placed her eye glasses, perching them on her nose. Tinatamad kasi siya maglagay ng contacts niya kanina.

Dala dala niya ang work bag niya sa isang kamay at ang files niya sa kabila habang naglalakad papunta sa may elevators nang may makabanggan siya.

"Oh."

"Ah, let me get that."

Nakayuko na din si Julie na kinukuha ang nalaglag niyang mga papeles.

When she lifted her head though, she saw Alden was the one helping her with her files.

"Oh hey." Bati niya.

Alden nodded his head, his lips pulling slightly as he looked at her.

Well this was awkward.

Julie cleared her throat as she and Alden made their way to the elevators.

Hindi kasi nagsasalita ang lalaki at wala naman siya gusto sabihin dito.

Umakyat na hanggang lobby ang elevator. Pinagdarasal ni Julie na may makasabay sila na kakilala nila pero wala.

She and Alden were shuffled to the back.

Hindi talaga siya nagsasalita. At muhkang hindi na nakatiis ang lalaki dahil ito na ang unang nagsalita.

"So uhm, kayo na pala ni Elmo." He said.

Julie turned to him. She gave a small smile and then looked back to the front. "Yeah uhm we made it official."

Hindi naman na sumagot si Alden at tumango na lang din.

The people in the elevator finally lessened until they reached their floor.

Pagkalabas ay saktong nandoon sa may receiving area si Elmo.

Kausap nito si Sofia na may pinapapirmahan sa kanya.

Julie watched as he fixed his eyeglasses when he noticed that she was there.

Medyo napakunot noo nito nang makita si Alden.

But he moved to her anyways.

"Hi Jirits." Bati ni Elmo.

He placed a hand on her side and leaned in, capturing her lips.

Bahagyang nagulat si Julie dahil nandoon si Alden.
