Blurred Lines

Chapter 2 : Is he the one?

Lea"s POV

It's already past dinner time when the contract signing finished. I knew that i am not going home yet so i asked my driver to order food in a resto along the way while i wait inside the car. There's nothing much to do so i just opened my twitter account and answer questions from fans to kill time. the moment i tweeted that i'll be answering  a few questions, my notification started to burst and my phone keeps on beeping. I cannot answer all of it. Some asked about my 3rd movie with Aga, about my favorites, next concert or album, broadway shows.. even mathematics.. and there's a few questions that doesn't make sense. I have all the freedom to either ignore or engage.. 

@msleasalonga I was there in Solaire a while ago. may pag asa po ba sa inyo si Coach Bamboo if ever he'll court you.

"@leboofan If you were there then i answered that already." ...i am straightforward.. she said she was there so what's the need of asking the question that was answered already? hindi ba siya nakikinig or just want to get my attention?

@msleasalonga Heels or sneakers?

"@kristinev Sneakers is my life. It's comfortable and doesn't hurt my feet... but heels for shows." which reminded me that i need to buy a new kicks.

@msleasalonga Kumakain po ba kayo ng balut?"

"@officiallyyours Yes, i am not a picky eater. If t taste good then i'll eat it."

My driver arrived with food in his hands. place it on the chair beside him and signaled him to just drop me off to a condominium in Boni. When i am just a few minutes away from my destination, i tweeted just one more message saying "I'm here! Thank you for all your questions." then put my phone back inside my bag and readily covered my head with a shawl and wore a sunglasses with huge dark frame even though i look so stupid.. i mean, who in a right frame of mind wear a sunglasses at 9 in the evening? i hit the elevator button quickly and walk straight, not wanting to draw attention from the crowd. My right hand is carrying the paper bag with foods and my left is trying to hold my shawl to keep it in place. I got my key which is in a form of card and swipe it to the door so it'll open. Was about to close it when someone hug me from behind. I face him and show him the food that's on my hand.

"i brought you food" i smiled and he kissed the tip of my nose. "Did you eat already?" 

umiling siya "Not yet, i am waiting for you"

I untangled his hands that's wrap around my waist and walk to the dining area and get all the food that's inside the paper bag and transfer it to the plates. "Di ka dapat nagpapalipas ng gutom. What if di ako nakapunta dito?"

"edi i won't eat" i glared at him.. "I knew that you will come" and he smiled na nagpapacute.

"Come on the food is ready" i called him.. he move the chair, the gentleman way for me to sit. and i said thank you.

"I ordered Chinese food. Which one do you want?"  before he can speak i already put every dish that i ordered on his plate. 

"Woah! wait hon! that's too much. Is that your strategy to make me fat so you can replace me with someone else?" 

"You talk too much! here eat this!" he open his mouth and I put the buchi inside and laugh so hard. 

"You love to make fun of me huh?" He started to tickle me. 

"Stop hon! okay di na kita pagtritripan" 

His face change and stared at me lovingly while caressing my cheeks. "I miss you!"

I hold his hand that was on my face "I miss you too!.. How was your day?"

"Just the usual.. Went for a walk, watch, sleep and stalking you on twitter"

"I slap his shoulder "And when did you learn to stalk and use twitter? I didn't know you have a twitter account..."

"Hon, you have 3.6 Million followers on twitter. You won't even notice me" with pawawa sad face

i pinch his nose "Trust me, i will" 

"Anyway hon, speaking of twitter, i read a tweet about a guy named Bamboo, who is he?''

He doesn't know a lot of celebrities here in the Philippines cos he grew up in the US and rarely watch a local television show only if i'm in it. "Oh, he's my co-coach on The Voice. Just met him earlier on the contract signing"

"That's it? a co worker?" he's eyeing on me maybe trying to assess if i'm lying or not. "yes"

"Okay!" he simply said

To change the subject "You know what, why don't you finish your food"

"Why are you not eating? kumain kanaba?" Rob knows a few tagalog.

"Actually hindi pa. There's a buffet table during the conference but i didn't stay long cos i know how bad the traffic is around the metro."

He spooned a sweet & sour pork with rice and ask me to open my mouth. oh it taste so good. I forgot that i haven't eaten yet.

 "You care too much about me that you kinda forgot about yourself.. i don't like it hon. I care about your well being... i care about you and i love you very much" Rob said and kissed me on the forehead.
