Love Lost, Lessons Learned

Facing the Past

Facing the Past

I wake up nervous because the interview is today. Based on what Michaela informed me, I might possibly see him, which makes me even more nervous.

"Ready ka na ba, sis?" Michaela asked me.

"Hindi, nakakakaba, parang nanghihina na ako." I said thats why she let a little chuckle.

"Ako na magdrive since gagamitin ko rin kotse papunta ng trabaho, hatid kita tapos chat ka na lang pag susunduin ka na ha?" I simply nodded to what Sai said.

They wished me luck and gave me a hug as they left the location when we arrived there. They are aware about how hard it is for me to talk to people about what happened to us, but here I am, in front of the building where I will go over it.

They recognized me right away as I walked in and advised me to wait a little while longer as it was about to begin. To ensure that there are no issues later, they inspect everything. I was forced to sit in the front. My hands are trembling, clearly indicating my nervousness, and I don't know if I can handle the questions they're going to ask. I wonder what will be the questions. I was thinking so much that I didn't notice that we were about to start.

"Shall we start na po? Miss Asharri?" The interviewer told me that I surprised me.

"A-ahh, sure po." I said.

"Introduce yourself po."

"Hello po! umm I'm Asharri Via Gabriel, 25 years old, an architect." I said while smiling.

"Tell me more about yourself po." Avery said. I didn't know that she's also the host of this show.

"Well, mahilig po ako sa billiards, volleyball when I was in college, traveling, and of course, my work."

Ms. Avery is reading the paper she is holding. "Ano ang paborito mong napuntahan?"

"Probably ang pinaka paborito ko is Japan." I smiled because I remembered the last time I went there.

"Mag-isa ka?" Ms. Avery suddenly asked.

"No po, may kasama ako."

"Maiba tayo, masaya ka ba ngayon?"

"Yes, masaya po ako..." I hesitated to answer because I also don't know if I'm really happy or not.

"Single po ba kayo ngayon?"

"haha opo pero not ready to mingle." I chuckled. I don't know why I always laugh when they asked me this question.

"Ano ang pinaka matagal mong relasyon?"

"4 years. First boyfriend." I said bitterly because I remembered that person.

"Paano natapos?" I ended up being speechless.  Although I knew he would be discussed, I wasn't ready for the questions that would be asked about him.

"Miss Asharri?"

"Magulo." I don't want to talk much about that person, so this is all that I said.

"Ga'no na katagal nung nagbreak kayo?"

"Siguro po mag iisang taon na?" Even though I know in my heart that it's been a year, I answered the question as if I'm not sure about it.
