DANICA's POVAs soon as the ambience went silent, I bursted out laughing. I don't even know why I'm laughing. Kael just confessed that he's jealous on what's going on between me and Marcus. I find it funny and so I laughed.
"What's funny?" he asked me in annoyance. Halatang galit na rin siya sa pagtawa ko sa kanyang pag-amin sa'kin.
"You," I suppress my laugh. "You and your confessions."
"Its not funny, Danica." he said in a hard way. Mas lalo pa akong natawa.
"Well, yes it is!"
Inirapan niya lang ako. Aba, dinaig pa ang isang babae kung maka-irap. I'm thinking if he's a straight guy or gay. Kidding aside. I continued laughing at him. And when my laughter died, I confusedly looked at him.
"You know what Kael-" sinamaan niya ako ng tingin. "I mean, Sir Kael. You're jealous because me and Kathy have the same face and you think that I am Kathy while mingling with Marcus. And it hurts your ego right? That's very very absurd."
Kumunot ang noo niya. "What?"
"You're very illogical. Bakit ka naman magseselos? Aside that I'm just being friendly, I am not your Kathy so don't think of me like her coz I will never be Kathy. Saka bakit mo ba binubuhay sa'kin iyang girlfriend mo? Matagal na siyang patay. Gets mo?" sabi ko sa kanya.
"I didn't mean it that way. I can't explain why I could feel this pang of jealousy sprouted inside me." he defensively explained at me.
Bumuntong hininga ako. "Ewan ko sa'yo. Ang gulo mo." sabi ko at tumayo na.
Nauna nang lumabas si Kael. I am now following him. Hindi rin siya umimik and that's good. I can't get over from what he said earlier. He's jealous. My goodness! Why is he acting like my boyfriend anyway? He's just my boss.
Pumindont siya sa elevator at habang iniintay namin na pumunta ito sa floor namin ay tumabi ako sa kanya.
"Can I go home after this? Ang sakit na talaga ng ulo ko eh." I said and sighed. Masakit pa rin talaga ang ulo ko. Blame me last night.
He didn't looked at me. "Next time, don't drink your souls out if you can't handle the hangover."
Hindi ko na siya pinansin. Seriously? Ginawa niya talagang big deal 'yung night out namin ni Yanna kagabi? Ugh. I hate him to the most inner core.
"Rude." I snorted out as we went inside the elevator. Buti nalang isang floor lang ang pagitan kaya mabilis kaming narating sa office niya.
Habang naglalakad si Kael ay nahulog 'yung ballpen. I get it before walking towards his office. But before he could open the door, I called him.
"Kael! Wait!"
Nakakunot ang noo niyang tumingin sa'kin. I handed him his ballpen.
"Nahulog mo." I smiled at him but he never budged to response. Natawa nalang ako ng mahina.
Papasok na sana siya pero tinawag ko ulit siya. This time e faced me with an irritation on his face.
"Danica, if you hav-"
I went closer to him, my lips only inches away to his ear. I can feel him startled.
"Seloso ka pala eh." I whispered at him. Lumayo na ako and walked out, leaving him dumbfounded.

Another day again. As usual, nakaupo lang ako sa table ko and nothing to do. Just answering calls to have some appointments. Himala nga at wala ako masyadong ginagawa at pinapagawa si Kael.
