Xyra

I almost drop the latte I'm holding when I saw my office. I'ts jammed pack with roses!

Wow, if I may say.

Tumingin sa akin si Jasmine at ngumiti. Sino nanliligaw sayo at ginawang dangwa ang office ko?! I scold her in my head.

Lumapit ako sa kanya at nilapag sa desk niya ang envelope which contains her design for the gown of a client. Kakatapos ko lang ireview yung details and I'm impressed. May konti lang ako na babaguhin, KONTI.

She really is one of the best. I returned her smile. "How are you?" I asked.

"Okay na po Miss Xyra." she smiled before looking at the envelope. "How's the design po?"

"It's......." kunwari poker face. "Beautiful." I said with a smile and she beamed in relief.

"Akala ko po hindi niyo nagustuhan."

"That's silly. I love it. Just how your suitor loves you for giving you this much roses." I kidded looking at the roses around us.

Meron pink, meron white, may red.... Woah, she got him head over hills for her.

Ngumiti siya, "Actually po, I wish they are for me. But the note says that they are for you."

"What?!" tumingin ulit ako sa napaka dami na roses sa office ko. You've got to be kidding me. I thought to myself.

At sino naman ang--... oh crap.... I think I know who he is. Pero, how did he know where to send the flowers? This office is addressed on my name. Oh boy. Does he know?!

May inabot na maliit na card sa akin si Jasmine, wait, alam niya na ba talaga?

Seriously? Boy, this is trouble. Without looking at the cards content, I took my phone out of my pocket and dialed his number pero pinatay ko rin agad. Wrong move.

Paano kung hindi niya naman pala alam? What if I’m just over reacting? What if I'm just over thinking? Paano kung mabuko pa kami dahil sa pagtatanong ko? 

My phone rang and I know it is him. I hesitated on answering it, but what if I'm wrong? Bahala na si batman!

"Hello?"

"Hey princess.. why did you ended the call? Sasagutin ko na sana pero pinatay mo."

Hmmmmmmmmmm...... mukhang hindi niya pa alam.

"Sorry."

"Why did you call?"

Para itanong kung alam mo na ba na ako si Xyra na kakambal ni Aryx, at nagpapanggap lang na si Aryx na two years nang wala simula nung maaksidente kayo. Alam mo na ba? I asked him over my silly head. Hello, ano ako Hilo? Para itanong sa kanya yun?

"Ahhh... wala naman.. I got the flowers. They're beautiful." I said changing the topic.

"I'm glad you like them."

I like them, but I don't love them. Rose is definitely not my favorite flower. But tulips, oh boy, they're beyond beautiful. Para kasi ang baduy ng rose, and there are a lot of woman who loves them. Gusto ko naiiba ako haha! Well, guess my twin sister is one of those women.

"I didn't know you’re into fashion, princess." he blurted.

Tinamaan ng magaling! Alam niya na?!! How am I going to answer that not so answerable statement? Paano?!! I'm starting to panic when I heard Yna over the other line.

"Hey, is that Aryx?" tanong niya. Well, si Aryx lang naman ang tinatawag niya na princess… unless may iba pa. Henry did not answer, guess he just nodded because Yna immediately took the phone from him.
