Chapter 2: Hi and Hello

Another day had passed and may story to continue pa si mommy. I pulled her up to my room and I lay on her lap. At alam na nya kung ano gusto ko.

(Mom's Story)

Its been three days since I arrived and toured around Paris. And I'm planning to visit the famous tower of Paris. The Eiffel Tower.

"Auntie, I gotta go. See you later." Pagpapa alam ko kay Auntie Clarice.

"Okay dear, enjoy."

So ayun umalis na ako ng sub. at nagpahatid na sa driver ni Auntie. As I was travelling my way there I was very much amazed by this beautiful place kaya I took pictures every stop namin.

"Madam, we're here. I'll be waiting for you there at that cafe." Sabi naman bigla ni Sir Brent, yung driver. So I nodded.

Wow. Ang ganda nga talaga ng tower na to. Makapagpicture nga. Oh wait, I'm not fond with selfies but I am more fond of the sights here so I kneeled down to take a picture but someone bumped on me that caused me to fall on my arms.

"Miss I'm sorry."

Inalalayan nya akong tumayo pero nung makita ko kung sino napatulala ako. Siya.. yung.. yung nakabangga sakin sa Mall.

I looked away when he smiled. Napansin nya gurong naka titig ako sakanya. Pero after nyang ngumiti at pagpatayo sakin tumakbo naman sya.

The scene hit me. Ako yung tumakbo nung unang tagpo namin pero ngayon sya na. Very funny. But this is wierd, he's running for a bunch of men. Troublemaker ata yung lalaking yun. Pero shucks! Ang gwapo! I wonder if I'll see him again, but too much day dream makapag take pictures nga ulit.

I took a lot of pictures na and I'm getting curious sa taas ng tower kaya umakyat na ako.

"Watch your step ma'am." Paalala ng nag aassist siguro dito. Nag smile naman ako.

As I reach the right place I got more amazed of the view. Mas maganda kapag nasa taas ka kesa nasa car. I took out my camera and took some pictures. Then I noticed a guy stood beside me.

"Lovely isn't it?" Hmm? British accent ah?

"Exactly. That's why its my favorite country." Sagot ko sakanya pagkatapos kong mag take pics.

"Mine as well. Got a talent on photo capturing." Sabi nya sakin habang nagsascan ako. Napatingin ako sakanya kasi magpapasalamat sana pero I didn't expect myself to say this.

"Oh my gosh its you!" Then he chuckled.

"Yes its me. And maybe its the right time to say Hi and you to say Hello?" He smiled joyfully. Parang bata lang.

"Haha. I'm Shannon by the way." I said as I kept my camera.

"And I'm Mathew." He said and took my hand and kissed it. Naaaaaks!

"Haha." I laughed awkwardly. Pinoy ako eh XD

We talked a lot about ourselves. We were getting to know each other. And guess what, he didn't tell me his family name coz he doesn't use it. He's nuts hahaha. Ganun ba talaga sa England?

"Oh its late. I got to get home now." Sabi ko habang kinukuha phone ko para makapagtext kay Sir Brent.

"Do you live near here? Are you gonna be safe as you go home?" Sabi nya naman sakin.

"I'll be safe no worries."

Sabay kaming bumaba sa tower at naglakad papuntang cafe kung saan si Sor Brent. Tapos nagpaalam na. Then I remebered, I forgot to ask why he ran away from those guys chasing him. There will be next time as he said before goodbyes.

(Back To Reality)

"Time to sleep my little angel." Sabi ni mommy habang kinukumutan ako.

"Will they meet again mommy?" Sabi ko naman.

"You'll know tomorrow. Good night honey."

Sabi naman ni mommy sakin as she turned off the lights. I gave her a flying kiss and drifted off to sleep.
