P.S Always and Forever

Chapter 26

"...The creation of individualized medicines and therapies is among the pharmaceutical industry's most anticipated trends for the succeeding decades. Healthcare professionals and pharmaceutical companies will be able to provide patients with individualized treatments made precisely for their needs based on patient data..."

I nodded as the speaker continued her speech in front. I'm also taking down notes because her presentation is vital for our company.

Bumalik na si Crim ng Pilipinas para sa birthday ni Kai. Crim and Misha texted in our group chat para pauwiin din ako kahit alam nilang dalawa na mas importante ang conference na ito!

"Hey. Remember about me wanting to find a woman?" Marco suddenly asked beside me.

Tumingin ako sa kanya at tinaas ang kilay bilang pagtatanong. Marco chuckled before looking in front.

"Damn, I think I found her." Marco absentmindedly said.

My eyes widened when I realized what he said. I gasped before hitting Marco's arm because of excitement for him.

"Bella, stop! Baka tumingin dito!" Marco laughed.

"Marco, I think she's Pinay! Go for it!" I said, urging him to talk to our speaker after her presentation ends.

"Pinay o hindi, lalapitan ko pa rin. Grabe ka naman, iniisip mo bang hirap ako makipag usap gamit English?" Pagtatampo ni Marco sa akin.

I blushed because of embarrassment in what he said before I shook my head rapidly. "No! Of course, not!"

Marco laughed. Kailangan pang takpan ng kamay ang bibig dahil sa tawa niya! I blushed even more when some people near our area looked in our direction. They have a judging look on their faces, as if saying to muffle our voices. Nakakapanghina ang hiya!

"...The patient gains more control over their healthcare experience. All thanks to personalization. They are able to choose the best course of action..."

"Damn, I can't wait to go talk to her." Marco said as he gaped at the woman talking in front. I frowned because of how awful he looks right now. Baka matakot pa ang babae dahil sa titig ni Marco sa kanya!

"You look like a fool staring at her like that so stop that." I said, with the hopes of him stopping. Nakakahiya na rin kasi sa ibang taong tumitingin sa amin!

Marco snorted before giving me a teasing smile. "Nagseselos ka lang ata, Bella. Aminin mo."

My eyes widened. "No!" I shouted, and that made the woman stop speaking in front. It also made me want to melt or vaporize. Everyone who heard my voice gave me horrified looks because of my tone and shout. Ayaw ko na.

Namumula na ang tainga ni Marco dahil sa pagpipigil tumawa at nakatingin sa babae na nakatingin na sa amin. Pagkatapos ay tinuloy na ang kanyang presentation.

"Bella, calm down." Marco said as he also chuckled because of my blushing face.

Nang kumalma, I glared at him. "I don't even like you."

Marco gave me a mocking smile. "Hindi nga? Baka gawa gawa lang pagkagusto mo sa iba."

I glared and pouted at him. Onti onti na rin naiiyak dahil sa inis para sa kanya!

Nang nakitang naluluha na ako, Marco raised his hands defensively and he chuckled. "Mukha ka talagang bata. Oh, ito na. Titigil na ako. I'm sorry, Bella."

I only frowned at him before returning to my notes from the presentation.

"Pero, curious kasi talaga ako kung sino. Pati si Crimson, ayaw sabihin sa akin kung sino." Bulong sa akin ni Marco. Hindi ko siya pinapansin.
