It dawned on me na meron akong pag-tingin kay Your Majesty.

Nung nagbalik-tanaw kasi ako sa mga nangyari sa nakaraang mga araw habang naliligo, aking napagtanto ang mga kabaliwan na ginagawa ko na lumalabas lang kapag may chenes feelings ako sa isang tao.

All those non-stop back-reading to our conversations, walang-katapusan na kiringking na pagkakakilig, ngingiti agad tuwing naalala siya tapos may pakipot, pacute, pahiya-hiya, at pabebe ek-ek pang arte, at 'yung malala pa ay laging inaabangan ang pakikipag-usap sa kanya, tapos napanaginipan ko pa -- shet.

The realization scared the hell out of me because even though it's been a long time since I've felt this way, I know how quick and far my delusions can go. My thoughts would be filled with such hot and heavy stuff, hopeless romantic fantasies, making me think and feel desperate.

"Hindi 'to pwede!" I quickly had to compose myself as an employee passed by the HR window and waved at me. 

Haaaaayss..

I trace my phone in my jacket's pocket.

As expected, hindi ko na naman nakausap si Your Majesty buong kahapon.

Sabi ni Miss Val, if ever, ako na lang daw ang mag-decided dahil most likely, o-okay naman siya kahit ano pa 'yun. E ang tanong, magpapakita ba siya? Darating ba? Susulpot ba and play his role?

With a heavy sigh, I re-read my message to him.

Hello Your Majesty! I'm sorry to bother you but the gameshow is going to have a 15-day check-in on Saturday. Couples are supposed to meet up with the switched couple and converse while getting filmed

Idk how this is going to work with your terms with the show, but I gotta ask if you have any preferred restaurant just in case. The list is below..

Tapos dalawang screenshots ang sinend ko sa kanya, and that was yesterday noon before the realization happened.

Hindi pa naman halata 'di ba?

I hovered my finger over his name.

Tama, tama. Just be cool, Thea. Ikaw lang naman ang nakakaalam ng nasa mo sa kanya eh. So, you're good. Nothing has changed.

"Hey," tawag sa'kin ni Karen. 

I quickly put the phone away. "What's up?"

"I'll be interviewing Julio's replacement at 12. You can take your lunch after the interview."

"Copy. Thank you!"

Umalis lang siya as usual.

Ting!

Mabili pa sa alas-cuatro ang pagkuha ko ng phone.

YOUR MAJESTY

Hi, sorry for the late reply, and stop apologizing. You're never a bother. I've checked the list but I want to hear your thoughts first. Do you have any preference?
