It's been days, but I couldn't bring myself to be jolly. I couldn't eat properly or go to the gym like I used to. I felt like I was floating, and I couldn't think of anything but that heartache encounter we had. Hindi na din muna ako pumasok sa office dahil wala akong gana makihalubilo sa mga tao kaya balik online ako sa paggawa ng trabaho, pero hindi ko sinabi kay Dad ang totoong rason bakit ayaw ko muna pumasok. Sabi ko nalang sumasakit ang ulo ko.
She must really mean it and was so eager to get rid of me because I'm not her Spencer. Maganda din naman ako ah, mayaman pero bakit hindi nalang ako? Kung tungkol naman sa ugali ko pwede ko naman baguhin yung mga ayaw nya sakin e, at saka madali lang iyon gawin kasi wala din naman akong maalala sa nakaraan.
I groan in bed and glance at the food I haven't touched since earlier, which was placed there by my maid. I don't have an appetite to feed myself. I miss her even though I shouldn't.
"Aalis ka po?"
Tumingin ako kay Butler Joe. "Yeah, I need some air."
"You lose weight. Still heartbroken?"
I just nodded my head and chuckled to hide my real emotion. Hes like a father figure, but no, I dont want to be fragile in front of him. I'm Grei Danielle Chevalier. I'm not weak. I shouldn't be.
"Dapat kumakain ka pa din. Yung gamot--"
"I don't want to rely on my medications all the time. I'm not going to die because of headache, so worry not and rest assured that Ill be fine."
"Give her time. I'm sure gusto ka din nun."
Gusto? Ako lang yung...may gusto.
"Ikaw talaga tanda kung ano anong sinasabi mo." - natawa ako at lumabas na ng front door. "Aalis na ako. Babalik ako mamaya bago dumilim."
I strolled around the city to unwind, and of course my bodyguards were following me around, but they were not making themselves known or seen. They know I will get mad if they invade my personal space.
I ended up outside a Japanese restaurant, but before I could get in, I saw familiar people coming out of it while talking to each other. My eyes drifted to the tall woman, who was busy talking to the man she was with. My heartbeat becomes fast because, after days of sulking in my room, I see her again. And damn my eyes for gawking at her. She was really pretty, even though she was just wearing jeans and a white shirt with her white sneakers.
She was with her team because I saw her manager in front of them. May humabol pa ngang fan nya at nagpa picture. Papasok na sana ulit ako sa kotse ko para umiwas, pero nakita na ako ng manager nya.
"Miss Chevalier! Fancy seeing you here. Kung hindi ko lang alam na sikat ang resto na ito, iisipin ko na itinadhana talaga tayong magkita ngayon."
Napalunok ako dahil rinig iyon ng mga kasama nya. Nakuha din nun ang atensyon nung dalawa sa likod. Now that I can see them clearly, I realize that the man was Darius.
"I was just passing by. B-bakit pala kayo nandito?"
I bit my lower lip. What a dumb question, Grei! Of course, this is a public place, and it's normal for them to eat here.
"Nagkayayaan lang kumain. Tapos na kasi yung photoshoot nila e." - sabi nya at nginuso yung dalawa na magkausap na ulit ngayon.
Photoshoot nila? Artista din ba ang lalaking yan?
Napausod ako dahil nabigla ako sa pagtapik nya sa braso ko. Nakangiti din sya na parang nang aasar. This woman! Don't tell me hindi nya makalimutan yung naging usapan namin sa orphanage?
