Alicia's POV
"Fantastic, hija! You are definitely ready for your first international competition!" Lumabas muna ako ng rink at lumapit kay Macy.
"Thank you. I'm quite nervous. There are a lot of professional ice skaters who will participate on that competition," lahat naman siguro ay kakabahan sa mga ganitong klaseng kumpetisyon diba?
"And you're one of them. Believe in yourself, Alicia, like how I believed you all these years." Hinawakan niya ang aking kamay sabay ngiti.
"Thank you, Mace. I couldn't do it without you." Niyakap ko siya ng mahigpit at ganun din ang ginawa niya sa akin.
I am Alicia Haley Smith, 25 years old and a professional ice skater. I've been participating into multiple competitions and I won in each one of them. And this will be my first international competition in my whole life! I hope I win!
"How about let's take a break. We should go out!"
"Saan tayo pupunta?" I asked.
"I heard there is a new open restaurant nearby. Let's check it out." Tumango ako at pumunta muna sa locker room para magbihis.
...
Pagkarating namin dun ay isa siyang chinese restaurant at mukhang sikat ang mga pagkain nila dahil marami na agad silang customers. Umupo na kami ni Macy sa bakanteng upuan at may lumapit sa amin na waiter. Nang matapos kaming umorder ay pinag-usapan muna namin ang pagpunta namin sa Amerika sa susunod na linggo.
"By the way, your mom called me. Hindi mo daw sinasagot ang mga text at tawag nila?" she asked when our food arrived.
"Uhm, nakapatay yata ang phone ko kaya hindi ko napansin."
Sinasadya ko talaga na hindi sagutin 'yon dahil alam ko naman kung ano ang gusto nila.
"Oh, your mom texted again." Tumingin ako sa kanya at nakatutok siya sa kanyang phone.
"What did she say?"
"Macy, please tell Haley to come home tonight ASAP." Ibinaba niya ang kanyang phone sa lamesa matapos niyang basahin ang text.
What does she wants?
"Are you avoiding them?" she asked.
"What? No! Why would I avoid them?"
She just shrugged her shoulders and continued eating.
Yes, I am avoiding them. I am 25 years old, and I know what they want. If I come back home, I am very certain that they would set me up on another date with some random guy. I'm so sick of it, that's why I left their house.
Pagkatapos naming kumain ay binigay na namin sa waiter ang bayad at palabas na sana ng restaurant nang may makabangga ako.
"Hey! What are you doing?!" Macy shouted when his two guards hold me by my arms.
"Let her go," malamig na utos ng lalaki.
Agad naman nila akong binitawan at lumayo sa akin.
"Better look where you're going, miss," he simply said and continued walking.
Aba?! Siya kaya itong hindi nakatingin sa daan! At tsaka sino ba iyon?! Kung hawakan ako ng mga tauhan niya, parang papatayin ko 'yong boss nila eh!
"Are you okay, hija?" Macy asked.
"Yeah. Kilala mo ba iyon? Nakakainis ang ugali niya!" Iling-iling kong sabi.
"What did you say?" tila naistatwa ako nang may nagsalita sa likod ko.
