WHEN we arrived, I didn't get off right away hinintay ko siyang pag buksan niya ako, men should know how to be gentle sometimes.

"Aren't you planning to come down?" Tanong nito saakin, but I didn't pay attention to it. I waited for minutes before the door opened. I immediately went out

When I stood in front of him it was like he examined me from head to toe. Nginitian ko siya "thanks" pag papasalamat ko.

"are you sure you are not cold wearing that?" he asked me worriedly.

"I'm not cold, I'm just enjoying myself wearing this again. It's been a while since I've been wearing these styles since you didn't let me go out"

"but you can wear that at home" he said

"Omy gash no, these kinds of clothes should be kept, especially when Tita bought them for me"

"But–"

He was about to speak when I cut him off  "let's go, they are waiting there"

Nang makapasok na kami ay hinanap ko sila Lily, nilibot ko ang paningin ko at nakita ko sila na nag hihintay sa pinakahuling table.

Kaagad naming pinuntahan ni Caleb iyon. "sorry for the wait" I said when I got to their table, I didn't hear anything from them, I just noticed their stares behind me. Nilingon ko ito

They were looking at Caleb "ahh... Girls this is Caleb" tinignan ko si Caleb "Cal, si Lily..." Tinuro ko kung saan naka upo si Lily.

"Hi" Lily greeted and Caleb just smiled

"Si Elodie..." Itinuro ko naman si Elodie. Elodie waved at him and Caleb smiled.

"Si Peony" itinuro ko si Peony got no reaction from her, parang sinusuri kasi nito si Caleb.

"Hi girls, I'm glad to meet you" bati ni Caleb na kaagad naman nila ginantihan.

We were about to sit down when suddenly Caleb's cell phone rang "excuse me" aniya at umalis. Hindi ko alam kung saan siya pumunta pero bahala na.

"Hii gi–" pinutol ni Peony ang sasabihin ko

"is that your boyfriend?" Tanong ni Peony saakin.

"No! Jesus Christ" How can Caleb be my boyfriend, he has a bad attitude. He's not my ideal

"I thought it was a girls night out, but you brought a guy who is not your boyfriend" ani ni Peony

"he is the man I told you is the owner of the mansion. he really doesn't want to let me out, he only allows me when he's with me"

"Yung Kidnaper mo? he's handsome" ani ni Elodie

Inayos ko ang upo ko "look, We're not here to talk about Caleb, we're here for Lily"

"It's okay, what I have to say is not that important" Lily said

"even if that's not important, we're still interested to know" ani ni Elodie

"girls, do you still remember Luke?" Tanong ni Lily. We looked at each other and tried to remember.

"Ah! the man Peony threw up on?" Tanong ni Elodie

"Gosh!" reklamo ni Peony

"Nooo, iba yun" ani naman ni Lily

Napatawa nalang kami sa reaction ni Peony.

"So sino nga?" Tanong ko

She hesitated to say it "Y-yung boyfriend ko in middle school"

"Luke Willow?" Tanong ni Peony

"Yeah" sagot ni Lily

at that time I was suddenly stunned, he was the man who kissed my hand. that's why he was familiar to me when we met. 

I don't know if I should tell Lily that Luke is Caleb's friend, but I don't think this is the right time for her to know.

"we meet again... That time he was shocked at first, but suddenly lost his emotions after a while" Lily said.

"The way you broke up with him was also wrong. Even me, I get really angry when the person I love cheats on me"

"Naiintindihan ko rin naman siya, but you know that there is a reason why I did that, right? I also don't want to tell him the truth because he really wants us to fight for love. I don't want to hurt him either "

"You already hurt him" ani ko kay Lily "to make you feel better, tell him all the reasons and apologize. You are all grown up and I know he will understand that"

"Yara, it's not that easy" singit ni Elodie

"I know, but she can't just hide it forever"

"Okay ganito nalang, whatever you did earlier just to avoid him, just keep doing it and pretend you didn't remember everything... Lalo na sa past nyo" Peony said

"And kapag ready kana na sabihin yun. Make sure he's in a good mood" singit ni Elodie

Tumango si Lily at nginitian kami "thanks girls, I know you guys can really help me, and make me feel better"

"and also thanks to Luke, the one we met at the bar" Elodie said

"Oh please god!" Peony said and covered her ears

Habang sila ay nag kukulitan, I couldn't stop looking around to look for Caleb. I haven't seen him since someone called him, I feel like I'm nervous. Iniwan niya naba ako? No, he can't leave me here.

"Excuse me" I said to them and went straight to the women's bathroom, I couldn't bear not to look for Caleb.

when I got there, I immediately took out my cell phone and hurriedly called Caleb. It rang again and again, it took him a long time to answer my call.

"Caleb sumagot ka!" inis kong sabi. Triny ko ulit itong tawagan pero tulad kanina ring lang ito nang ring. I'm nervous, I don't know but I suddenly feel like I'm in danger.

if it is possible that he has already left, I have to go home too. Nag mamadali na akong lumabas ng cr, I was going back to our table when I bumped into someone because I was in a hurry.

"Oh! I'm sorr–" pag hingi ko sana ng tawad, but when I saw who it was, I couldn't continue to say it.

"Yara? how are you, we haven't seen you in a while" masaya nitong tanong saakin.
