It’s a cool day. Good day for Gino’s shoot. He asked me to go with him to take sceneries for his Photography Class’ project. I’m staring at the window feeling the cool breeze when Gino knocked on the door.

“Good morning Gabrielle!” Gino greeted happily.

“Hey, inspired huh?”

“Yea, great day isn’t it? I’ll make my master piece today”

“Sounds cool”

“Yep. Comm’on. Let’s get this done”

“HEY, I haven’t had my breakfast yet!”

“I bought blueberry cupcakes and hot choco at BitterSweet’s, let’s just eat on the road”

I actually love eating on the road. Looking at the window glass while dropping large pieces of cakes on my mouth, of course it’s hard for Gino to eat while driving, I eat most of his food. We first go to Ever Park.

“Hey! We haven’t been here for like centuries!”

I run all over the place like being there for the first time.

Gino kept on taking pictures while me, enjoying the Park, watching the children play, the candy and ice cream carts, balloons all over the place and the sweet scent of flowers.

“Hey Gab, smile!”

“C-H-EEEE-EEEE-ZZZ-EEEE”

He looked hard on his camera like he captured a ghost at my back.

“Hey what’s wrong? I don’t really have a potential being a model huh, do I? ha-ha”

“You look beautiful” then he stared at me for a moment.

“I know right HAHA”, just to break the awkward moment.

“If you become a model, will you forget me? Or will you just ignore me if you see me in the mall with all your body guards and maids?”

“Haha why are you so afraid of being left alone? You always act like that,” I said not noticing I became insensitive.

 “Because they all left me,” Gino said, turned his back and went back to his car like he lost his appetite for today’s shoot. I followed him.

“I’m sorry Gino.”

He never said a word and just drove me home.
