I was tapping my fingers above my thighs while waiting for an important call from someone,

"Kumalma ka nga Ate Scarlet," Kalmadong bigkas ni Heart sabay kagat sa mansanas na hawak-hawak niya,

Yes, she's here wala kasi siyang duty ngayon. That's why she decided na dalawin ako,

"Can you blame me? This is important to me and especially to our company." Sabi ko...

"It will be successful, okay?" Pagpapakalma niya sa akin,

I sigh and look at her, "Fine." Pang sang-ayon ko sa kaniya..

"Want some?" Tanong niya sabay alok sa akin ng mansanas,

Bahagya naman akong umiling bilang tugon,

"How's Cecilia and dad at home?" I asked,

"They're doing fine Ate Scarlet, ikaw ba? Pinapahirapan ka ba ng pamangkin ko, malapit-lapit na ang due date mo.. Buti naman at naisipan mong mag work from home na lang." Paliwanag niya..

I smiled lightly and held my baby bump, "It's your Kuya Logan's idea." Saad ko, "Also Dra. Zara said that she's okay coming here every appointment."

She nodded, "That's good. At least you don't need to travel to the hospital." She commented..

"How's work?"

Natigilan siya sa tanong ko, "Going well," Simpleng tugon niya,

"Eh ikaw kumusta ka naman?" Tanong ko ulit,

She look at me, "Hmmmm.." She hummed, halos nakasulat sa mukha niya ang pag aalinlangan,

Umayos ako ng pagkakaupo ko, "Hey you can tell me anything, I'll listen." I said..

"There's someone," Bungad niya...

"Hmmm... Okay," I commented,

"At first, I don't like his presence, but as time passes... He grew to me, and I like having him around.. He can make me smile despite my tiring day, and then there's a day I realized.." She looks away,

"Unti-unti na akong na-attach sa kaniya, pero kailangan ko nang pigilan.." Dagdag pa niya..

Napakunot naman ang noo ko dahil sa sinabi niya, "At bakit naman?" Tanong ko..

"We're different from each other." She said..

I let out a small laugh, "Alam kong ilang beses mo na ito narinig, but I will say it anyway." Sambit ko, "Opposite attracts, bunso.. Hindi naman porket magkaiba kayo sa isa't-isa hanggang doon na lang 'yon." Paliwanag ko.. 

Her lips parted, "At kailan ka pa naging love expert ate?" Tanong niya..

"The day that I learned how to love someone intimately." Direkta kong tugon sa kaniya...

"I don't like him and obviously I don't love him." Protesta niya,

"Kung nandito Ate Cecilia mo, for sure matatawa siyang makita kang ganyan." I said laughing...

She was about to say a word when my phone rang..

I immediately press to answer the call..

[Yes, Violet?]

Bungad ko sa kabilang linya, it took a seconds before I received a response..

[It's Cav, Maldy.]

Agad ko namang naalis ang phone mula sa tainga ko, sabay tingin sa screen... Nakakunot kong binalik ang phone sa tainga ko,
