Two weeks had rapidly gone by at wala pang nagagawa si Amory about doon sa pustahan nila ng kaibigan ni Sebastian.

First of all, it was a stupid bet. Masyado lang nasaktan ang ego niya dahil tinawag siyang mukhang bading ng mga kaibigan nito that was why he accepted the bet. But if he consider how many times he had imagined Sebastian underneath him after that incident in the club, baka nga hindi naman siya straight. Why would he get horny over that guy if hindi ito ang preference niya?

Going back to Amory's dilemma, part of him wants to prove something to Sebastian's friends, even though he knows it might be impossible to make a straight guy like Sebastian fall for him in just a span of one month. How nice it would be  to make an unattainable person fall head over heels with him, right? But another part of him realizes that if everything goes wrong, he'll be the one who gets hurt. Because when Amory falls in love, he falls damn hard.

In the case of having this type of internal crisis regarding his gender, it was not a really huge shock for him because he was open to same gender relationship even before meeting Sebastian pa. Nacurious na rin siya dati how it would feel like dahil nga  his friend Rain had his share of same-sex relationship, and ang kay Amory lang if he falls in love walang gender na makakapigil sa kaniya.

But even though he was ready to have that kind of relationship, this was the first time he got dangerously attracted to a guy. At ang malala pa isang Sebastian Mikhail Astor pa ang naging love prospect niya. Minsan naiisip niya na baka may tama talaga siya sa utak.

After long deliberation, Amory still  became driven by pure interest and so he decided to investigate about Sebastian more. Honestly, he knew this might look creepy and stupid at umaakto na naman siyang parang baliw so he  tried to set certain boundaries. And while doing so, he noticed that something inside him grew and he knew that this might not be about the bet anymore...

So of course to understand his feelings, kailangan niya ang taong nagpaparamdam nang ganoon sa kaniya.

Biglang naalala ni Amory that he once had a girlfriend during junior high school, and he believed it would be his greatest and final love. When they broke up, he felt as though he was breaking apart and dying. He struggled to let go of the familiarity, the feelings, and the time they had shared.

And going back, medyo OA talaga ang naging reaksiyon niya sa paghihiwalay nila ng naunang nobya.

Dahil it turns out there was so much more fish in the sea. At ngayon naaantract pa siya sa isang baby shark.

Who would have thought that he will delve deep into the ocean to discover love again?

Amory Villegas  was walking on the second floor of the building of the College of Business Administration nang may makasalubong siyang isang pamilyar na tao.

He smiled sweetly at the person nang magkatapat sila. "Hi, you're Josh right?" ito yung kasama ni Julia sa club last time na nagparty sila.

Namumula ang pisnging ngumiti ito sa kaniya. "Hi Amory. It's nice to see you here."

Natigilan siya nang may maalala. Did Josh witnessed what happened in the club that night? Or kasama ito nang maagang umuwing siJulia? Dahil kaya pala nawala si Ismael noong gabing iyon ay dahil inihatid nito pauwi ang nobya at isang oras pa bago nakabalik. Pagbalik nito sa club drunk knocked out na sila ni Mico.

"It's nice to see you again here. Bigla kayong nawala noon sa club." Amory tried reading Josh's face as he talks at mukhang wala naman itong alam sa kabaliwang ginawa niya noong gabing iyon.
