Ang Love, hindi lang nasusukat sa kung anong nararamdaman niyong dalawa. Hindi porke mahal ka niya, mahal mo siya ganoon na lang.

May mga bagay na i-consider at kailangang i-adjust. At dapat may tiwala kayo sa isa't isa. At may communication din. Dahil kung pagmamahal lang, walang mangyayari.

Keith POV

Hindi ko alam kung ang mga desisyon ko noon, tama. Pero kailangan ko ng panindigan dahil tapos na kailangan ko na lang harapin ang bukas ko.

Hindi na dapat binabalikan ang past, dahil kahit anong gawin ko hindi na yun babalik kaya just stand up and move forward.

Nasa kwarto ako ngayon at katatapos kong maligo ng makareceive ako ng text sa secretary ko.

Good morning ma'am. I just want to inform you that you have a meeting with MY FASHION team around 7:30am.

Hmm. Meeting in this early.

I just leave it and walked into my closet. I chose to wear fitted red dress na isng dangkal nalang haba above my knee. Fit na fit ito sa katawan ko at pinatungan ko pa ng mid sleeve coat. Pang top lang ang haba nito na kulay puti.

Nag 4inches red heels lang ako. Nilugay ko na lang ang buhok kong dati ng kulot at naglagay lang ng powder sa mukha at pink lipstick. I just fix my eye brow and my eye lashes. I put pink blush over my cheek and lightly contour my face.

Nang matapos, nag-spray lang ako ng sweet perfume and wore my lady silver watch. At dahil medyo low-neckline ang dress ko, nagsuot lang ako ng silver na necklace na may wings na pendant.

Holding my office white pouch with diamonds on it, I left my room.

Ang laman lang ng pouch ko ay ang aking phone and organizer cards with my atm and credit cards on it.

Nang makarating ako sa may entrance nandoon na ang butler ko at hawak ang isang white office bag. Nandyan lahat ng trabaho but of course hindi ako ang magdadala niyan.

"Let's go. I need to be in my office before 7:30." Sabi ko sa kanya. Tumango lang siya bago yumukod muli sa akin ng dumaan ako sa harap niya.

Sa harap ng mansion, nakapark na ang aking Enzo Ferrari. I grab the key to my valet and hop in. Kasunod ko sila butler at ang aking P.A na nakasakay sa isang sasakyan.

Nakarating ako sa AC ng 7:15 so dumiretso na lang ako sa opisina ko mismo.

"Cindy, call me when they are complete. I don't want to start when they are not complete." Utos ko sa kanya bago ako pumasok sa opisina.

Tambak na naman ng papel ang table ko so I don't have any choice but to sit and read the documents. Puro proposals and reports hindi maaayos.

Tsk!

Hindi ko namalayan ang oras dahil tutok ako sa kaka-correct ng reports ng bawat team. I need a clear informations.

Nasa kalagitnaan ako ng pagbabasa about sa marketing strategy ng isang branch ng hotel na pagmamay-ari namin ng may kumatok. Its Cindy.

"Ma'am ready na po ang lahat." Sabi niya.

"Sige. Sandali lang." I quickly retouch and fix my self. Grabbing my phone and pen, I went in the conference room. Kumatok muna si Cindy ng tatlong beses before she open the door and let me come in.

Lahat sila tulala sa akin. But I ignored all of them.

"Everyone, lets start. Take your seats." Sabi ko na lang. Umupo ako ng maayos.

"Ahm. May dalawa pa po tayong hinihintay." Sabi ng isang babae. Napataas ako ng kilay at tumingin kay Cindy. Siya naman ay kumunot ang noo.

"All I thought we are complete? Cindy?" Tanong ko sa kanya. Magsasalita pa lang siya ng may kumatok. Binuksan niya iyon at pumasok ang dalawang nagpasira ng araw ko.

"Sorry we are late. Medyo napuyat lang kagabi." Ngumiti pa siya. At tumingin sa kasama niya.

"Nainip ba kayo? I am really sorry. Si Clark kasi pinag--"

"Is this how you work on me Andrea?" Sumingit ako sa sasabihin niya pa sana.

"Keith! Sorry talaga. Alam mo naman ako hindi ak--"

"I don't need your nonsense escapades or whatsoever activities you have. I don't even care about it but you must know that when you are dealing with me and my company, you know where to stand." Singit ko sa kanya. Walang umiimik.

"Is this your way to show your professionalism? Mr. Joong you are an international celebrity and what do you think will happen to your career if this will be in public? Being late because of nonsense reason?" Nakatingin lang siya sa akin. Parang may gustong sabihin pero natatakot siya. I can see it in his eyes.

"Take your seats. Ayoko nang maulit to." At umupo na lang sila. Tahimik ang lahat dahil siguro sa nararamdamang tensyon.

"So two weeks from now meron tayong fashion show and starting next week ang photoshoot. Ang themes ng photoshoot ay forest, beach and bedroom. So kailangang i-group into three ang mga models. Yun lang." Paliwanag ng coordinator para sa fashion show.

"Saan naman yung venue?" Tanong ng isang member.

"Actually, we are planning to do it in forest theme resort ang photoshoot. Sa fashion show of course sa close place tayo."

"Maganda rin. But don't you think na masyadong magastos ang photoshoot. We need to take at least 10 shots in every dress. 50 dresses ang kailangang i-shoot. Remember we have three theme so we will have 150 dresses." Paliwanag ng isang babae.

"Oo nga naman. Matatagalan yan. We need at least 6 photographer para matapos ang lahat ng isang araw. Fixed na scheds nila."

Nag-discussion na sila sa topic. Nakikinig lang ako sa kanila and waiting for someone who will approach me.

"What do you think should we do miss Keith?" Finally. Someone remembers that I am with them.

"Thank you for ignoring a while back. But let's just do it in a yacht. And don't worry we can have enough the time for that shoot before the fashion show."

"How can we have enough time?"

"Simply by hiring professional photographers and models. I'll be also there during the photoshoot but just to organize everything. We will start before the sunrise and during at night in bedroom shots and of course all the photographers will take the shot in all theme and all the models will shoot all the theme. Early sunrise will take the forest shot and before sunset. So if we'll group them then others will just waste time..."

"... At the high peak of sun, and after lunch, we'll take shots for beach then group pictures."

Napatango-tango sila. In favor I might say. Well they can't say no.

"Ahm miss, we actually need one more thing." Sabi ng isa pang organizer.

"We actually need a picture of Mr. Joong and you in the front of the yacht if we'll take it in a yacht." Alanganin niyang sabi.

"Just a picture? It's fine. Its just for a business. Don't worry, I'll do it. If its okay with Mr. Joong?" Saka ako napatingin kay Clark. Nakatingin lang siya sa akin saka ngumiti.

"It's fine with me. What should I wear? A business suit?" Tanong niya. Sumandal ako sa swivel chair at saka uminom ng tubig.

"Swim wear." Muntik ko ng maibuga ang tubig na iniinom ko.

"Why?" Tanong ko sa kanya.

"For front cover of the magazines and brochures. Because your the owner and of course Mr. Joong is the new face?"

"Why do we need to wear that? Can we just wear business suit?" I asked. Of course I can make it. But of course I need a nice explanation.

"Gusto lang naman po namin na i-ayon sa theme. Of course it talks also business but the theme talks sexiness. So if you'll wear business suit in front of the yacht and the sea, its inappropriate."

"Fine I'll wear swim suit." Sumusuko at problemadong sagot ko sa kanya.
