I just got back from the conference room dahil may mga inayos kami regarding their accommodations in the Philippines. Malapit na yung concert nila and it was so good to know na sold-out lahat ng tickets.
"Jay!" I called him and even raised my hand para makuha ang atensiyon nya pero dinaanan niya lang ako.
What's with him today? Napaisip ako, pero pwede namang pagod lang o may iniisip.
Pero Ano kaya yun?Is he mad?The last time I check ok naman kami. He even bought me coffee this morning.
I sighed, but then I tried to shrug the negative thoughts away. Bad days are normal, sometimes you just don't feel good and that's okay, because that only makes us humans.
It was already lunch time so the others must be on the cafeteria already. Habang pumunta naman ako sa balcony dahil may baon naman akong pagkain. Actually,this is one of my favorite places here in Hybe. Bukod sa mahangin,maganda rin yung view. It really helps ease my mind for some reason.

Habang kumakain ay pumunta muna ko sa Youtube para manood ng kung ano-ano hanggang sa nauwi ako sa pakikinig ng isang podcast.
"Person A and B likes person C, but Person C likes person A first, However she eventually gets confused due to person B. Who do you think is for Person C?"
Napakamot ako sa ulo dahil sa pinagsasabi ng host. Ano daw? Parang ABC lang naman yung naintindihan ko.
"Uy, nanonood ka rin nyan?" Napahawak ako sa dibdib ng biglang sumulpot si Sam sa tabi ko.
"Hindi ngayon lang." I answered and offered some kimbap which she gladly accepted.
"Ganda ng topic ngayon a" panimula nito
"Hindi ko nga naintindihan"
"Weh, e parang ikaw lang yan!"
"Huh?"
"Eto kasi nakikita kong problema diyan, Person C doesn't know how to differentiate infatuation from the L-word kaya siya naguguluhan. Saka hindi porke't si A yung nauna, siya na. You get me mamshiecakes hmm??" she explained with matching hand gestures.
"So kay person B ka?"tanong ko.
"Hindi ko alam. Hindi naman ako si Person C. Ikaw ba?"
"Hindi ko rin alam" napakamot ako sa ulo, at naiiling na tumawa. Hindi rin naman ako si person C. Ni wala ngang may gusto sakin.
"Wala ka pa bang trabaho?" I asked her kasi alam kong may solo shoot si hoon ngayon. She needs to prepare beforehand.
"Ay oo nga pala! sige una na ko ha" she tapped my shoulder and smiled.
"Hinihintay na ko ni person S. dun sure ako" dugtong pa nito sabay kindat sakin. Person S? could it be...nevermind.
I was walking back to my cubicle nang makasalubong ko si Heeseung. He was smiling at me with those genuine eyes again. Ngumiti rin ako sakanya but I halted when he gently grabbed my wrist, then I look up to him.
"May kailangan ka?" Tanong ko.
"About my mixtape Lory..." he trailed. I almost forgot, he was actually producing songs on his own.
"Anong problema? What do I have to do?"
"No..no, I just need your opinion about it. I want you to listen to it." he said
"Ako?" but shouldn't he ask the general producer instead.
"Sure ka ba?" Nagaalangan kong tanong. "I mean...hindi naman ako magaling na music critic"
"But I trust your taste in music" sagot nito sabay ngiti na hindi mahihindian ng kahit sino. I sighed. Wala namang mawawala kung makikinig ako.
We went to the studio together and I wasn't really familiar with all the music stuffs in here. There were two swivel chairs at doon kami umupo. Sinuot niya sakin yung itim na headphones at naisip ko lang bigla na ang swerte ko, because out of all people,I was the first one to listen to his song.
A feel-good type of music started playing. It’s something that you'd want to listen to everyday while chilling or during a rest day. It was very comforting that I can't help close my eyes while slightly nodding my head, following the beat.
I was so into the song, ng marinig kong sumabay na rin si Heeseung sa pagkanta, and I didn't know that his actual voice would sound even better. I opened my eyes only to meet his gaze because he was already facing me, as if he's been watching my reaction all along.
"How was it?" He asked me when the song finished.
"It's beautiful." I answered spilling nothing but the truth. Indeed,he wasn't called the ace of the group for nothing.
"I agree...beautiful." he replied, looking at me with those pair of eyes again,which reflects that very same emotion whenever he looks at me.
I just wonder...
Ganito rin ba siya tumingin sa iba?
Because, I swear he's starting to confuse the hell out of me.
