I was walking inside the company when someone stood infront of me. I roll my eyes at him. "Hi, miss? How are you today?"

Hinila ko siya papunta sa pinakagilid. "Hindi pa kita napapatawad sa lahat ng ginawa mo, Keyshawn. Akala mo nakalimutan ko iyon?"

"What?" He raised his eyebrows at me like he doesn't know what I'm talking about and he's grinning but I can see laughter dancing in his eyes. "What did I do this time?"

I can't believe him, he's acting! I pointed at him. "I can't believe that you're the one whose playing innocent at this moment, Keyshawn. Can't you see what you did now? I'm his secretary and for your information I don't want to be his secretary because it felt like I was in hell and you know that. Also, I knew that you planned that I'm the one who have met Enzo at the airport and that you sold your own company, and to Enzo pa? Like you're playing cupid on us." I roll my eyes at him.

He just grinned and he thumbs up. Baliw! "I just want to enter the YSIA mansion and you know I can fully trust Enzo for everything, not that thing: I didn't play cupid to the both of you."

Nahigit ko ang hininga ko saka siya tinuro. "Kung hindi lang kita kaibigan, ipapakain kita sa pating. I hate you!" Ani ko saka tumalikod.

"Wait! Honey Bee, I love you too!" He shouted before chuckling.

What a guy! Napakalakas pa naman ng sigaw niya kaya siguradong narinig ng mga tao sa lobby dahil nakatingin sila sa amin. Walang hiya siya!

Pumasok ako sa loob ng elevator at hanggang sa makarating ako sa President Office ay napakunot ang noo ko dahil parang may pinag-uusapan ang mga kasama kong employee.

Dahan-dahan akong lumapit sakanila. I wasn't fond of eavesdropping but now I'll be doing it. I'm curious, that's why...

"Ang ganda niya, blooming!" Nakangiting sabi ni Euphoria Skye.

"Siguro nga kasi inlove talaga siya kay boss." Umirap sa hangin si Aile.

"Pansin ko nga din, bagay silang dalawa, sus, sikat nga si Jessamine dahil sa ang ganda niya." Nakangiting sabi naman ni Felipe na siya iyong tinutukoy ko na laging nakatingin sa computer o cellphone.

Nang marinig ko na naman ang pangalan ng babaeng iyon ay parang may tinik na tumutusok sa aking puso.

"Guys! May maganda akong announcement sainyo! Breaking news!" Nakangiting sabi ni Mr. Pineda. Tumingin kami sakanya ng nakakunot-noo.

"Ano na naman?"

"Mr. Gile, our boss and Miss Jessamine are going to get engaged!" Then he clapped his hands like he's so proud and happy for his boss. "And boss even ordered a platinum necklace and it was on Miss Forenza's neck!"

"Wow! Talaga?!" Miss Aile asked with amusement in her eyes.

"Woah!" Napatakip naman si Euphoria sa bibig niya. "Ako kaya rin, kailan? Kailan ko kaya papakasalan iyong crush kong si JC... Aray!" Napasinghap si Euphoria ng pinitik ni Felipe ang noo nito.

"Ang bata mo pa tapos ayan ka na naman sa puro crush, crush, parehas kayo ng babaeng kapatid ko."

"Bakit ba? Crush lang naman, saka hindi na ako bata no?! 23 na ako!"

Inirapan lang ito ni Felipe.

"Yeah, so back to topic. Our boss and Miss Jessamine are going to marry each other soon! Maybe she's the reason why our boss suddenly changed into much better now. Right McKenzie?"

Inayos ko ang reaksyon ko na kunwari ay nakangiti ako ng todo pero ang totoo ay hindi, parang may tinik din sa baga ko.

Engaged na sila? Ikakasal sila? I should be happy right? But why do I have to feel hurt anyway. Why is it so hard? I should really forget about him, about us and about our past even though it's really hurt my feelings.
