Take a Chance With Me, Mayor (AliceXRisa AU)

Political strategist or Digital Marketer?

××××××××××

Weeks passed, Alice's sprain was finally healed. She can finally work without worrying. As the glaze of sun strikes Risa, she immediately picks up her phone and calls Alice.

"Mhm.." Nanaas ang mga kilay ng Senador. Hindi kasi sinasagot ng chinita ang tawag. "Tinotoyo nanaman ba 'to?" She uttered. She dropped her phone and released a sigh. "Won't pick up, huh.." She mumbled before grabbing her towel and proceeded to the bathroom.

While taking a shower, all she could think of was the Mayor. Despite what happened between her and Alice, she was madly happy as she had her in her arms now. Wala ng kawala. Kanyang-kanya pero walang kasiguraduhan. After taking a shower, she immediately ate breakfast with her children. As usual, they're having a normal conversation.

Si Risa, kahit pa kaharap niya ang mga anak niya, nakatulala pa rin at biglang ngingiti. It didn't took long for them to finish their breakfast. The Senator immediately left for work.

At the office, only the sound of papers flipping can be heard. Naka-focus ang Senador. Maya-maya, she heard a gentle knock on the door. "Come in." She spoke. The door slowly creaked open and there, it was the Mayor reporting for her work. Work.. hmm..

"Good Morning, Madam Risa!" She greeted. "Good Morning, Alice." The Senator replied. "Lock the door and sit beside me." She demanded. Agad namang sinara ni Alice ang pinto at umupo sa tabi ni Risa.

"You didn't pick up the call. Why is that?" Risa asked with her left brows rising. Alice smiled at her and scratched her head like thinking of an explanation. "Uh.. ano po kasii.." She spoke stuttering. "Kasi po, nag-set up po ng meeting 'yong bagong political strategist ko for next election." She explained.

"What? A political strategist? Hindi ba't parang ang aga naman to appoint someone for the next election? And you know that lunch is still your working time for me, Hindi ba?" Pag-uusisa ni Risa. "Nag-seselos ka po ba?" Alice said sarcastically. "Charot!" She added.

Risa promptly tilted her head back from the papers she was holding and her mood obviously changed. "You promised that we're having lunch today." She uttered. Alice chuckled and moved her chair closer to Risa. She leaned her head in Risa's shoulders and wrapped her forearm in the Senator's.

"Hindi mo po kasi ako pinapatapos eh. Hindi naman po ako pumayag sa pinaappoint niyang lunch. Ikaw ang priority ko." She spoke. Risa glanced at her at patted Alice's head. "Akala ko lang nakalimutan mo.." Risa muttered.

"Hindi po, I love you.." Alice replied. "I love you back." Risa answered and gave Alice a kiss in the forehead.

Risa immediately continued reading some papers while Alice was just beside her sitting ang looking at her working. It seems like Alice came to the office not as a partner but as the Senator's lover. Walang kalabel label.

A few minutes later, Alice's phone rung. Someone's calling her. She immediately picked it up.

"Hello, Is this Mayor Alice?"

"Hello po, bakit po?"
