Alice POV

"KINGINA"

"BAKIT NAKIKIPAG EYE CONTACT SI SENRI SAAKIN HABANG NAKANTA"

"ISA NAG OOVERTHINK AKO"

"SHET ANG ANGELIC NG VOICE HELP"

Habang kumakanta si Senri ay di ko Naman mapigilang hindi mapangiti sa tuwing nakikipag eye contact sya saakin.

When she does that, I felt butterflies on my stomach.

After she finished singing, everyone in the room clapped. We all know that she can sing, her voice sound angelic and comforting-making me feel at ease, not just me but everyone.

7:30 pm, and we're here sa Isa sa mga food court dito sa resort. Nag-aya si Attorney Leni kanina na uminom daw kahit konti lang, just to relief a little bit of stress-everyone agreed, and I hesitated a little. But then senri convinced me that this is just once in a while, so I just said yes. And here I am, drinking a beer peacefully, thinking about something, while everyone is chitchatting.

I chugged the beer that is left on my bottle and grab another one, I opened it and stood up from my chair. Everyone stopped talking when they heard my chair creeked as I stood up, they looked at me with a look of confusion. Senri hold my hand.

"Is everything okay Ms Gou?" She asked, looking up at me.

"Opo, punta lang po ako sa mag seaside." I said, she nodded and I excused myself to everyone.

I left the food court and went to the seaside, di ako lumayo para matanaw parin nila ako Mula sa food court, it's a big open cottage. And they we're sitting at the very end of the cottage sa may left side where they could still see me.

I sat on the bare sand, enjoying the calming sound of the waves, the fresh air, and the peace.

I chugged my beer leaving it just half. I placed it on my side and I stared at the sky, the full moon is shining brightly, the stars are sparkling.

And indeed. My stress was relieved, everything that's been running through my mind fades.

Kanina lang din Kasi after ng event, tumawag si kuya Seimen saying that three of our investors sa farm ay bumitaw. They also didn't gave any specific reason kung bakit Sila bumitaw, it's a big lost for me, kuya and ate shiela.

While just staring at the sky, I felt someones presence besides me. I looked at my side and saw Larry sitting, staring at the sky.

"Ang peaceful noh?" He asked, leaning backwards with his arms supporting him.

I nodded and chugged my beer again. I placed it back on my other side and looked back at the sky.

"Oo nga eh, tama na din siguro na sumama ako kahit na labag sa loob ko" I said jokingly, making Larry laugh softly as he shook his head.

"Nga Naman. Ilang beses nang na ca-cancel day offs mo." He jokes back.

"Tibay mo din eh noh? Pang apat mo na Yan eh." He said, I chuckled softly and chugged my beer one last time and placed the empty bottle on my side.

"Nahihilo na nga ako eh." I said and rubbed my eyes from under my glasses.

He chuckled softly, drunkenness evident on his voice, well... mine to.
