Chapter 8: The Checklist

Chapter 8: The Checklist

Vince and Angeli were waiting outside Sir Jaime's office.

One was anxious while the other one was asleep.

Angeli stole a side glance at Vince.

Tulog nanaman siya.

It's a miracle he even fell asleep even without his beloved "mot".

Angeli smiled when she remembered how Vince used to bring his blanket everywhere when they were kids.

She prevented the giggle that was threatening to come out.

Wow.

Has it been 10 years already?

I can't believe it.

She followed suit and rested her back on the wall.

To tell you the truth, she has never really paid close attention to Vince's physical attributes since she saw him.

1. It was awkward. She never really thought of seeing him on her first day at work.

2. There were just too many people hustling and bustling yesterday. And the last thing she needs is the crew teasing her and Vince.

She looked around to check her surroundings.

The coast is clear.

He had his head against the wall with his eyes closed.

Angeli's eyes roamed from his dark hair, to his perfect eyebrows, to his long lashes, his straight nose, full lips and then his slender neck.

Really?

Kelangan talaga mahaba eyelashes mo?

It should have been your pasensya that's mahaba.

"Sisingilin na kita."

Angeli snapped back to reality.

"Huh?"

Vince has his eyes open with a smirk on his face.

He faced Angeli.

"Next time, sisingilin na kita." said Vince.

Angeli still has a puzzled look on her face.

"Ang tagal mo kasi makatitig e." said Vince.

Nakakahiya!

Angeli was about to say something...

Stupid?

Most probably.

"Vince, Angeli...pasok na kayo sa office." said Priscilla.

Saved!

Angeli was relieved...BIG TIME.

She didn't know how to reply to Vince's statement anyway.

Priscilla led them inside Jaime's office.

Flashback:

Everything happened so fast.

One minute they were being praised by Jaime for their photo shoot yesterday.

The next they were being talked to about trying to get along with each other more.

Then as soon as they were about to leave Jaime's office, there was an emergency that involved his driver's family, prompting his driver to drop his list of things to do and leave suddenly.
