This story revolves around the technology industry with programmers as the characters.
Aly Hernandez comes from a family that owns a conglomerate in the Philippines however, she never enjoyed the spotlight that comes with it and wants to make her ow...
"H-Ha?" I stuttered. "Hindi naman ako nag-o-overtime, may hinihintay kasi ako kaya dito muna ako sa office." Paliwanag ko.
"Boyfriend mo noh?" Tanong ni Myles na tumaas-baba pa ang mga kilay.
Nangingiti ako pero ngumuso ako para itago at umiwas ng tingin.

We didn't share it with our colleagues, of course. But Caden, this guy is so obvious sometimes so I'm sure they already have an idea and they respect our decision to keep it private.
Natatawa silang nagpaalam sa akin dahil uuwi na sila. Following their backs as they walked away from me, I thought of how grateful I am to them.
I was afraid that I had to make a choice between relationship and friendship but they showed me that I can have both with the right supportive people surrounding me. I was relieved when their treatment of me did not change after the incident and after they knew more about me.
With Shelly, we are civil with each other after she apologized for what she did. I don't have any problems with her but I guess she's not comfortable with me or she has other reasons so we don't talk to each other unless it's about work. But that's ok with me because now I accept that not everyone will like me. It's a waste of energy to befriend them and try to please them when I could pour that energy to someone that actually cares for me.
Aside from her, I also got an apology from the girl who started a mean thread about me. Just like other people who experienced cyberbullying, I decided not to pursue a case because it's time, effort and money consuming. But I hope she learned that just because there aren't any penalties doesn't mean she can do it again.
