Run, Princess! Run!

6Miles

Faye and Z stepped out of the room as soon I said it was okay.

I don't know but suprisingly I'm not feeling nervous. My sytems are calm.

I am calm.

Wow, that's a first.

Anyways, she took the seat at the far end of the table from the door where I stood.

Her back facing me while she looked outside from the big window glass.

I walked towards her.

"I wanted to know what what happened with you and Emmy when you went out that night." her voice was calm. Not the authoritative one I was so used to hear.

I stopped.

"There's not much to tell me about. We just hung and made up for the lost time."

Seconds passed and I didn't hear any response from her. I felt like a fool just standing here.

"Is there anything else Ms. Monteverde?" a hint of irritation was visible in my voice.

This time, she turned around facing me. She stood up and walked towards me.

As she do so, I got the chance to see her fully. She has grown to a fine woman. She was more than beautiful now.

My gaze focused on her face which held an expression I can't recognized. She's still hard to read.

She stopped a few steps away from me.

"What did you call me?" she asked.

"Ms. Monteverde?"

"Princ-----" I cut her off.

"Why? Is there anything wrong with how I address you? It's what you called respect, you're one of my bosses after all." she just stared at me "Ms. Monteverde if you don't have anything you want to ask anymore, I would like to leave you now . . . my friends are waiting for me."

When I didn't hear anything from here, I just turned around and walked to the door.

"Hey what happened?" asked Z

"Are you okay?" - Faye

I laughed "Guys, I'm okay and nothing happened. Kain na tayo? gutom na ako."

Hindi ko na hinintay ang sagot nila at nauna na akong maglakad.

"Anong ginagawa mo dito?" isang boses galing sa likuran ko. Lumingon ako at nakita si Kate.

"Wala naman. Nakakaaliw talaga kasi dito kapag gabi. Nakakatuwa ang iba't-ibang ilaw." nasa isang sulok ako dito sa rooftop.

"Kita yan sa bedroom mo, why go out here?"

I chuckled "Eto naman, bawal ba dito? ang sarap kaya dito."

Tinabihan niya ako "Really huh? Anyways, musta yung meeting kanina?"

"It went well. We'll be starting 2weeks from now."

"Hmm nice."

I gazed at her as she look at the view infront of her.

"If you're gonna say something, say it. It's creeping me out how you look at me now, you know." she said without turning head.

Grabe namang creepy -.-

"I . . . I don't know if I should tell you about it . . . Just forg----"

"You can tell me anything diba? Saka you not telling it, making me more curious and all so you should talk before I forced you." she threatened.
