Flashbacks
Thursday, 4pm at the office (2011)
"Hello," Catrin answered her phone.
"Cat, wazzup? How are you?" her friend Misty on the other line.
"Yo! I'm good...just a bit busy with work..." she told then laughed. "...I'm always busy..."
Misty laughed. "By the way, are you open for a blind date?" she asked.
"Blind date?" Catrin a bit frowned.
"Yap!" Misty puffed. "I have a friend who's open to go on a blind date..."
"And then?" Catrin said, not interested and continue with her work.
"The first one comes to my mind is you..." her friend continued. "why don't you try? He's a nice guy...don't worry."
"But Misty?" Catrin supposed to reject the idea but her friend cut her off.
"I already gave him your number...he even saw you in facebook. He's interested to meet you." Misty abruptly said as she playing the pencil on her fingers while at her work.
Catrin sighed. "What for that you call me about this? You already given my number to him without my permission!" she half hissed.
Misty laughed. "Co'z I know you well...you will decline going out for a blind date."
Catrin rolled her eyes. That's exactly what she always hated to Misty. She used to give her number to any guy that she thinks good for her, to any guy that she thinks a good prospect to be her boyfriend. She sighed in disbelief again.
"Okay...okay...but this will be the last time I will entertain a guy that you'll introduce to me..." Catrin strictly uttered.
"Yikes!" Misty blurted out. "...you are so mean, my friend! I'm only concerned on you. I also want to see you have a lovelife. Don't stuck yourself with damn work, you know. How will you meet guys if you will just stuck yourself there at the office, if you will not go out and socialize?" she added.
"Misty, didn't I say...okay?" Catrin said, getting irritated.
Misty laughed again. "So...meet him tomorrow night at Garden Café, Edsa Shangri-la, 7pm." She told.
"What the-" Catrin patted her forehead. "...you really set it already huh? Damn!" she irritatedly uttered.
"Friend, it's for your own benefit...who knows...you will thank me after this..." Misty uttered, getting amused as always. "And his name is Paolo Gutierrez."
Catrin sighed again for the fourth time. "Okay...okay..." she pouted, getting tired of the conversation.
"Good luck!!" Misty last words before she hanged up
***
Friday, 7pm - Garden Café
"Hi," she greeted when she saw a guy wearing blue polo at the right corner of the café as Misty's instruction to her. "Are you Paolo?" she asked.
"Oh, hi!" the man stood up. "I'm Paolo Gutierrez." He introduced and offered a handshake and the latter accepts. And he guided her to sit down.
