I smile as i look at myself in the mirror. Im wearing a floral Primadona dress partner it with beidge Prada Stiletoe. I caress my hair which is cut. It looks like Jessy Mendiolas hair. Ayaw pa akong gupitan ng stylist na bakla sa salon dahil nanghihinayang sya sa buhok ko. I cant blame him though. Pero sa inis ko ay tinutukan ko sya ng gunting gupitan nya lang ako. I love the result of my hair.
All new me.
But still have the same heart that's beating for Misag Fulkerson Young.
It's been five months since we broke up. At marami ng nagbago sa loob ng limang buwan. I pass the board exam. I have a job now. I'm a senior copywritter of Bright Minds. It's an advertising company. Kami ang gumagawa ng commercials ng mga sikat na brands. But most of the international brands account is in Metro Minds, my papa's conpany.
He wanted me to work on our company but i refuse. Sabi ko gusto kong magsimula sa mababang posisyon bago nya ako ilagay sa pagiging CEO. Im an only heir.
He said i could work to our company in a low possition but i refuse. For sure they will give me a special treatment there. So i apply in other company.
I want to start as junior copwritter but they refuse. They say im overqualified for junior possiton. I want to scream. For sure my surname just speaks well that's why they put me in a Senior Copywritter possition. Im a Love. And it speaks Metro Minds loud and clear.
"You okay there?" Papa asked for the nth time.
"Pa, ayan ka na naman!" I roll my eyes as if he can see me behind the lines. "Okay lang ako. Mababait sila, tsaka natututo ako."
"I never imagine you will stoop down in a low possition. But im glad." I can hear his smile from the other line. "Mas malalaman mo ang pasikot-sikot sa negosyo kung magsisimula ka sa mababang posisyon. Malalaman mo ang importansya ng mabababang empleyado."
"I realize that too." I smile. I just remember Misag again.
"Whoever this guy who turn you to a better version of yourself, i will be forever thankful."
"Nagdadrama ka na naman papa!" Asik ko sabay tawa. "Sige na po, may trabaho pa ako."
"Sa bahay ka uuwi?." Malambing na tanong nya. "Opo." I answer. I can hear him whisper "Yes!" Natawa ako.
"Miss Sarina, Conference room daw po tayo. Meeting." Nakangiting ani ng sekretarya ko. Tumango ako. "Ma'am nakita nyo na 'yung bagong Marketing Director?" Kinikilig na sabi nya. She's fixing her notepad while saying those. Nangunot ang noo ko.
"Ngayon ba ang dating non?." I ask. Sa pagkakaalam ko ay next week pa ang dating ng Marketing Director. Nag resign kasi ang dati dahil magmamigrate ito sa Canada kasama ang pamilya.
"Opo." Tumango sya ng sunud-sunod. Kilig na kilig ang gaga. "Ang gwapo Miss. Makalaglag panty." Tumawa ako.
"May panty ka pang suot?."
"Nagdala ako ng extra!" Sabay kaming natawa sa sinabi nya.
We walk through the conference room. And to my surprise.. i see Misag Young.
"There you are Miss Love." Nakangiting ani ng CEO sakin. Pilit akong ngumiti at walang nagawa kundi maupo sa tabi ni Misag dahil yon na lang ang walang nakaupo.
Ang lakas ng tibok ng puso ko. Why is he here? Then i realize.. sya 'yung Marketing Director?.
"Please welcome the new member of our family, Mr. Misag Young. Your new Marketing Director." The CEO announce. Inaasahan ko na iyon pero nanginig pa din ako.
"Miss me?" Misag whisper in my ears. Gumapang ang masarap na kilabot sakin. His tone was just so Playful. What happen to the old 'dont-talk-to-me!" Misag Young?.
"What are you doing here?" I whisper back. The meeting goes about the new accounts. "Nag-invest ako?"
Sinamaan ko sya ng tingin.
"Bakit?"
"Trip lang. Wala ng paglagyan ang pera ko e." Nakangising sabi nya. Ang yabang! Pakiramdam ko ngkapalit kami ng katauhan! Since that broke up, im not fond of hissing anymore. Nagbait ata ako. Hindi na rin ako madaldal masyado. Naibalik ko lang ang pananamit na nakasanayan ko.
"Ikaw? What are you doing here? You're stalking me?"
"Excuse me!" Sigaw ko.
"Yes, Miss Love?" The CEO ask.
Pilit akong ngumiti at umiling. Nakangisi naman si Misag sa tabi ko.
"Nauna ako dito! So technically, ikaw ang nang-i-stalk sakin!"
"Still the same old Sari, Vain ka pa rin?"
"Im stating a fact!"
"Hindi ka pa rin nagbabago." Tumawa sya. "E di mahal mo pa rin ako?"
