– Imee Marcos

I'm currently here in my office with Irene.

"Manang, have you already watched the UAAP?" Irene asked

I'm sitting on my swivel chair, while Irene is on the couch.

"Hindi pa, pero kelan ka pa naging interesado sa sports?" I asked back

"Look" She said and came towards me

"Diba yan yung anak ni Senator Villar?" She asked

"Oo bakit?" I said

She let me see her screen.

"Eli kayanin mo yan! I know you can do it" we both heard

"Sino yun?" I asked

Irene was about to answer, when Matthew suddenly came.

"Mom tignan mo" He exclaimed

Matthew immediately turned on the television.

"Rumored girlfriend?" Both me and Irene said

After the news was aired, I then called Izabelle.


–Izabelle Marcos

After the UAAP competition, I then went to the bathroom.

I'm just going to wash my face to refreshen.

"Belle are you okay?" My friends came

I shook my head, and went outside.

"Here" Ivan gave me a handkerchief

He was standing outside the door.

"What's this for?" I asked

"Pampunas mo sa mukha mo" He coldly replied

I just gladly accepted it.

After I finished drying my face, Allison came.

She was catching her own breath.

"U-uhm ate belle, I think you should check the news" Allison worrieldy said

"Why is there any problem?" I asked

"Basta check it" She nervously uttered

All of us immediately obeyed.

"Head start, for the UAAP Men's Basketball Championship. Eli Villar, the son of Senator Cythia Villar, has a rumored girlfriend. It was seen on the video that the daughter of President Bongbong Marcos is most likely a rumored girlfriend" The anchor said

As soon as I watched the news, Tita Imee called me.

"Who's calling?" Sofia asked

I showed them my phone.

"Ako na kakausap" Ivan offered

I shook my head.

"Its okay, inexpect ko din naman" I replied

He looked at me.

"No belle, its my fault. Ayokong mapagalitan ka dahil sakin" He exclaimed

I tried to think of what he said, and just accepted it.

"O-okay here" I said

He took my phone, and excused himself.

While waiting for Ivan, someone called me.

"Belle" He said

We all turned our heads and saw eli.

"Oy Eli, congrats pala!" Luna said
