The first time we worked together was when she invited me to sing at a formal event; I received a handsome pay. Since then, I have made my options open for her.
The second and third time I was invited was to a wedding. It was followed by a debut party and different events. Thanks to her, I was able to pay my debts.
I can say that she's a professional - she informs me ahead of time, two weeks to be specific. With that, I arrange my schedule at The Non-alcoholic Bar or adjust my schedule at Garden de Alegria. There are times that I was groggy at work due to my lack of sleep. But I don't mind, strike while the iron is hot as they say.
Of course, there were times that I almost didn't make it due to my work schedule at the restaurant. Thanks to Lady Luck, I have colleagues that I can ask to change shifts with.
In every event I attend with her, I feel that I like her more. I told myself that if she would invite me to sing again at a wedding, I will tell her that I like her. No, I think like is not the right word; I will tell her that I'm falling in love with her.
