Colet's POV




"Cancel all my schedule for the whole month. I'm going to Baguio next week." I told my secretary.




"But you have an important meeting with the board next week, Ma'am. They're expecting you to be there. Especially the Chairman."  my secretary reminds me. Napakamot nalang ako sa ulo dahil hindi ako makakasunod sa kanila immediately. I was expecting to enjoy but I guess, it's not that possible.




I reached for my phone to message my friends, I need to inform them.




Colet: I won't be coming with you guys next week. I have work to do.

Gwen: When ka susunod?

Colet: Maybe after that. San kayo magstay?

Maloi: Stacey told me may bahay lola niya doon, her grandma insisted na doon tayo magstay.

Colet: I'll book a hotel nalang

Maloi: Don't worry, Jhoanna won't stay there. May sariling bahay na siya doon.

Colet: No, I'm with Reign kasi.

Mikha: LUH?

Gwen: ah need ng place for something hot and steamy.

Colet: alcoholan mo utak mo, Gweneth!

Mikha: Comeback na kayo? or wala ka lang talagang madadala to make Jhoanna jealous.

Maloi: the latter, I think.

Gwen: awit, mukhang may bebe na yata!




I told my friends to inform me once they've arrived. Ngayon kasi sila bibiyahe on the way to Baguio. I tweeted something and was surprised when my friends mentioned Jhoanna's twitter. But then, after that, she posted a picture of her on Instagram.




So, she went on a date with someone?  What do I expect? She's a model for fuck's sake! Gays, guys, and even straight women can easily be attracted to her. She looks so happy.




Its 7:30 pm,  I saw her picture again. She was so happy and i think I have a nice job, I am healthy. But I wish to be as happy as she is. I wish i was the one by her side. Shit! Why did i peek? Why did i type her name? Why did i want to see her just for me to crush myself?




I think I need some distraction, medyo umiinit ulo ko probably because of the weather.
