"...Nevertheless, there has also been a rise in digitalization and a rise in the importance of developing technology. The pharmaceutical industry has typically trailed behind other industries in this regard that aren't subject to the same regulations..."

Panay tango ako habang nakikinig sa speaker sa podium sa harap. Since umaga ang dating namin kanina sa Germany, mga bangag pa kaming tatlo!

Si Crim ay bahagyang nakasandal sa akin habang pumipikit pikit ang mata, habang nasa isang tabi ko si Marco na nakasandal sa upuan niya at paminsan minsan sinasampal ang sarili!

Dumiretso kami sa hotel room namin kanina at binaba lang ang bagahe, bago kami tinawag ng organizer na kailangan na raw kami sa conference. As much as we want to rest first because of jetlag, we can't bear to become unprofessional.

"...Healthcare solutions are being sought after by consumers. There appear to be more demands for patients than ever before. The drug companies must therefore focus on the needs of their customers while marketing..."

Patuloy na salita ng speaker sa harap. We understand that everything he says is important, but we can't wrap our heads around everything he says!

Hindi na nga nakayanan nila Crim at Marco, they activated their voice recording to record the whole duration of the presentation!

"Gusto ko na lang matulog." Crim groaned beside me. I giggled. Mas lalo akong nabubuhayan sa reklamo ng mga katabi ko.

"Fuck, the coffee outside must taste good." Marco said in wonder as he slapped himself again.

I giggled before I continued listening to the speaker. I have no other choice but to listen. Kahit nakatulala na lang minsan.

Thankfully, the presentation ended, so we were brought back to the main hall. Almost everyone around me was wearing lab coats. Even Marco's wearing his. Kami lang ni Crim ang semi-formal ang suot.

"Tangina, ngayon ko lang naramdaman na madumi ako." Natawa ako sa reklamo ni Crim. Hindi pa kasi kami nakakaligo simula nang nakaalis sa birthday ni Misha!

"Bella, hindi ka ba nalalagkitan sa sarili mo? Feeling ko ang angot na ng pempem ko." Reklamo ni Crim. Binatukan ko siya para tumigil ang bunganga niya! I'm blushing because what if someone heard her?!

"Engineers, I'm going to leave you both for a while. I need to join this presentation." Marco informed us when he saw a banner about a presentation about something in the scientist industry. Tumango na lang kami sa kanya bilang paalam.

"What if Marco heard you, Crim?" Bulong ko kay Crim. She laughed at me.

"Edi, congratulations."

I glared at her but she pinched my cheeks.

"Gagi, Crim? Bella?"

Tumingin kaming dalawa kung saan narinig ang boses. My eyes widened when I saw a familiar face.

"Gago, tao na si Remy!" Bati ni Crim bago lumakad kung nasaan si Remy. Yumakap kaming dalawa sa dating kaklase.

"Tangina mo pa rin, Crim. Gumanda ka lalo, ah? Sexy mo rin. Anong secret natin sa diet, madame?" Birong tanong ni Remy kay Crim.

"Inflation rate." Sagot ni Crim na ikinatawa namin ni Remy.

Remy looked at me before pinching my cheeks. I pouted before swatting his hands away. He laughed. Si Remy lang kasi ang close naming lalaki sa batch namin. Aside from Oliver, now Olive.

"Mukha ka pa rin bata, Bella! May boyfriend ka na ba? May kakilala ako!" Remy said that made me blush. Technically single, but my heart isn't.

"Hoy! 'Wag mong ilakad 'tong bata ko sa kung sino sino, ah!" Crim said as she also rested her hands on her hips like a mother.
