[Bianca's POV]

JFK International Airport

It's already 12:37 AM here in New York. I am currently waiting for the Sedan I hired to drive to the hotel I booked. Because Ken is not here, I decided not to check-in in the hotel he reserved. Hindi ako makapaniwalang wala siya rito. Hindi niya ako sinipot. Ni hindi ko nga alam kung paniniwalaan ko ang sinabi niya.

I just thought he changed. Kumbaga sa marriage, may cold feet siguro siya. Pero bakit kailangan pagbalik ko pa siya babawi? Why don't he just fly here? I know hindi sapat na dahilan yang business matter na yan. Maybe he doesn't love me at all. Sa bagay, we were just dating these past weeks, hindi pa naman namin na define ang relationship namin.

"Excuse me, are you miss Razon?" isang lalaking nakasuot ng suit and tie ang lumapit sa akin.

Matipid akong ngumiti sa kanya. "Yes."

"The car is here, please follow me." Sumunod naman ako sa kanya habang hila ko ang maleta ko. I can't believe I'm alone in New York. I should have just said no to his offer. I should have never let my guard down. Why am I weak when it comes to love?

Sumakay na ako ng sasakyan at chineck ko ang phone ko. There's a 12 hour difference from NY to Manila. So tanghali na doon, napagpasyahan kong tawagan si V.

Her line is ringing and I patiently waited for her to answer.

"Where to, Ms. Razon?" tanong ng driver.

"The New York Palace."

Tumango naman siya at nagsimula nang magdrive. I redialled V's phone kasi hindi siya sumagot nung una.

[B!! Oh my gosh!] rinig ko ang excitement sa boses niya. Napangiti naman ako.

"Ganyan na ba ang hello ngayon?" matawa-tawang tanong ko.

[Ooops, hihi. Sorry, how was the flight?]

"It was the worse. Mag-isa lang ako."

[Ahh, Ken bailed. I saw him last night. He was with a girl. Maikling buhok. Mukhang prostitute. I'm really sorry B.] I just sighed and looked out at the car window.

"It's fine. Just let him be, for now I'm in New York and I want to try my best to enjoy this trip." Palusot ko pero ang totoo sobrang nasasaktan ako. Ayaw kong paniwalaan si V dahil umaasa akong may 'business stuff' nga siya.

[Want me to fly there? I can book a flight now.] alok niya naman. I don't want to bother her.

"No V, it's okay."

[Sigurado ka? Your voice sounds off.]

"Jetlagged pa ako V."

[So saan ka magstay niyan?]

"The New York Palace. Wag mong sabihin kay Ken ha. Di ako magchecheck-in sa binook niyang hotel."

[Alright, anyway I'm going out to lunch with Ollie right now.]

"Ahhh, really?" amused kong saad sa kanya.

[Hey, it's just two friends having lunch. Tumawag siya, tapos libre niya raw. Why would I say no to free right?] palusot niya. Tumawa lang ako.

"Hay nako V. Anyway, I'll just call you again soon."

[Okay, bye B. Take care.]

"Bye V, I love you."
