Marsela's POV
Sa office ng CEO naming si Sir Vicente, ang daddy ni Drake.
"..you don't know how disappointed I am Marsela. Pinagmamalaki pa naman kita sa lahat and then you give me this?. I thought you wanted this promotion and then ganun ganun nalang yun?. You treated this business like some sort of joke."
"I'm really really sorry Sir. I wasn't really myself yesterday. I'm not sure if I'm drugged or something but please, give me another chance. I swear I wouldn't mess things this time."
"Di nako magpapaligoy ligoy pa. Gusto mo ba ang anak ko?." Which is ikinagulat ko. Joke ba to? Joke to eh.
"What?. Si Drake?! No way!.'
"Well, I can see that he likes you or maybe more than that."
"I don't think I'm getting your point Sir."
"You want the promotion and be rich right?. Then why don't you marry him?. At least pag ikaw yung pinakasalan niya panatag ako. And someday ikaw na rin ang mamamahala ng lahat ng ito since di ko naman napagkakatiwalaan sa kahit ano si Drake. Ano? Deal?."
"Wag nalang po tsk. I resign." Walk out ko. Seryoso ba talaga siya? Tsk.

Abby's POV
Her eyes, nose, lips--
"Miss Trinidad."
"P-po?."
"I said answer the equation in number 4." Seryosong sabi ni Miss Karlene.
"O-opo Miss. S-sorry." Tayo ko at pumunta na sa harap.
Recess.
Kasama ko ngayon sa cafeteria sina Rans, Gabb, Gelo, Marcus, Sheki, Alice, Ecka, Belle, Dwayne and Bryan.
Kanya kanya ngayon sila ng mga pinag-uusapan samantalang ako halos wala parin sa sarili.
FLASHBACK
"Uhm Mago, last na to ah. You know naman diba na I have a boyfriend and I don't want you to get the wrong idea." Sabi ko.
Napangiti naman siya na para bang nabunutan siya ng tinik.
"Don't worry, wala naman akong hinihiling na kapalit. Saka look at you, you looked stressed. Isipin mo nalang na tulong ko to as a concerned friend. Well, we're friends right?."
"O-of course. Friends tayo."
Ngiti ko. Pero ang totoo parang di na ata ako sigurado.
EOFB
Gosh, why can't I stop thinking of her?. Tsk.
Pero may mali talaga eh. I feel like nagkakilala na talaga kami somewhere in the past pero di ko lang siya maalala. Maliban sa kamukha nya yung imaginary friend ko na si Sela. Tsk speaking of, she's now sitting in her favorite spot in the cafeteria kung saan matagal tagal na ring walang umuupo.
A former schoolmate was raped and killed last year, at yan yung paborito niyang pwesto. Hindi ko siya masyadong kilala since she kind of a loner. Ang alam ko lang Ice ang pangalan niya. She's my junior.
Pero mabalik lang kay Mago.
Di nako nakapagpigil, kinuha ko agad ang phone ko at tinext siya.
Can I come over at your place tonight?.
"Sino yan?." Biglang tanong ni Gelo.
"A-ah wala, si Mago tinext ko lang."
"Bakit?. May problema ba?."
