Monique's POV
"Hey, babe. I wanna buy an expensive bag. Dito oh." hinila ko ang kamay ni Jay papunta sa shop ng mga branded bags. Oh shocks! Matagal ko ng pangarap na magkaroon nito, and now I'm finally going to have it. B*tches, you're all mine!
Tumingin ako kay Jay na nakaupo sa waiting area ng shop. Pssh. He was never interested in any of our dates. He's never interested in our dates. Every single time we go out, he's glued to his stupid phone. Ugh! It's so frustrating. But honestly, I don't care that much, as long as I get my hands on these branded bags.
Nagsolo lang tuloy ako sa pamimili and after naming mabili ang mga branded bags ko, kumain kami ng lunch sa isang mamahaling restaurant. Honestly, this guy is so boring. Hindi ko makausap ng matino. Ni walang lambing sa katawan. Para siyang robot na pinapagalaw lang ng controller.
Kahit na ibang iba siya sa tuwing kasama niya noon si Kamala. It's makes me jealous. Wala na sila. Ako na ang present niya kahit na ano pa mang dahilan ang meron siya, he should be giving all his time to his new girlfriend—me, dammit!
"Pwede bang wag mo muna siyang isipin habang kasama ako?" naiiritang demand ko kay Jay. Jay's been staring at Kamala's face on his phone all day, even while we're together! Tsk. Ang sarap hablutin ng cellphone niya at ihagis sa labas.
"Shut up." he replied coldly before standing up and heading to the restroom. Napasunod nalang ako ng tingin sa kanya hanggang sa mawala siya sa paningin ko.
Padabog akong sumandal sa upuan saka nagcross arms. Nakakasama ng loob yung ginagawa niya. I mean, alam ko namang mahal pa niya pero wala na sila, for crying out loud! Kaya ako ang pagtuunan niya ng pansin!
Naghintay ako ng ilang minuto bago siya nakabalik sa table namin, his expression blank as usual.
"You better behave yourself, Jay. O isisiwalat ko lahat ng--"
"Keep your fvcking mouth shut, b*tch. You think you can threaten me with that?" mahina ang boses niya pero may diin ang mga salita. Kinilabutan ako lalo na sa nanlilisik niyang mga tingin. Parang anytime ay pwede niya akong masaktan.
I gritted my teeth. I know what he's capable of—he's the nephew of a CEO and a vice president himself. But I'm risking everything because I've got something against him too.
...I just can't handle him when he's like this when he's angry. Tsk! This sucks!
"Whatever." tanging nasabi ko nalang saka nanahimik.
Stupid, dumbass.

Kamala's POVAs usual, busy na naman ang restaurant. Lunes kasi ngayon and back to work na naman. Nagkaroon na akong magandang tulog noong weekend kaya ganado na naman sa work.
But I can't stop thinking about last Friday night. Honestly, I had such a blast. Sobrang dami naming napagkwentuhan ni Hachiro. it felt like we were old friends catching up after being apart for a long time. Pfft, it's funny how comfortable it felt.
Saka ko lang din narealize na baka nga, he really does want to be friends with me. I never really acknowledged his intention kasi, first of all, kakakilala lang naman namin. Second, the fact that he is the CEO of a big company makes it less believable na gusto niyang makipagkaibigan sa akin. Third, I wasn't sure if he was sincerity.
But that night, even if it was just for a few hours, I felt his sincerity. I could tell that he genuinely wanted to be friends.
Fine! Kung pakikipagkaibigan lang naman, wala naman sigurong masama diba? Then, I'll give it a chance.
