EX Factor

Chapter 2: Ms. Chad

GAVIN POV

After five years, now is the time for me to get serious with my life. I'm now the new CEO of Inarez group of companies. Our company owns the biggest modelling agency in the country, our company also has its own brand of clothes and accessories.

I'm actually into music and modelling. My parents loves me so much that's why they let me explore and do the things that I really want to do for 5 years. And I think 5 years of exploring and doing things for myself is enough and now its time for me to take the duty of being the only son of Inarez.

I'm already successful in the modeling field. I'm one of the top model not only in this country but also around the globe. Though I did not pursue my singing career because of too much exposure but I still manage to compose and produce good looking and talented artist.

I must say that I've become so busy in those 5 years fulfilling things for myself to the point that I did not find time for love. I only had one girlfriend when I was in high school. Though I am not really that serious with her, I actually court her because of peer pressure. I am not really into relationship, I am too busy to think about that.

But our relationship did not last, because she needs to go abroad to continue her study. So she had no choice but to break up with me. Its not a big deal for me though.

We still manage to communicate with each other once in a while. And she really feel guilty for leaving me here. Even though I kept on telling her that its okay, still she keeps on telling me how guilty she was. Especially when she knew that after her I never had a girlfriend. And its kinda iritating actually but I know that she just want me to be happy. She's a hopeless romatic kind of girl, that's why.

To be honest, if I only met that girl before her, I might court that girl instead of her. I call her Ms. Chad because I met her during our high school United Nation event. She's a sophomore while I'm in my senior year. I'm really attracted to her not just because of her beauty but there is something in her that I can't describe. She's different from other girls. She's the only girl who can bully me though not in a mean way, and I actually find it cute. Too bad I'm already in a relationship, if not I might court her, though I am not that confident if I can make her say yes.

I'm in the middle of reminiscing my high school life when my friends Drake, Vince and Christian arrived. I'm in my room holding the welcome/engagement invitation from Sam, my ex girlfriend.

"Bro nakareceive ka din pala." Vince said while waving the invitation in his hand.

"Yes." maikli kong sagot

"So ano bro ready ka na ba to hear her drama?" Nakakalokong tanong ni Drake.

Kumunot ang noo ko. "What do you mean?"

"You know, the "guilty" drama of Sam." sagot ni Drake

Nanlaki ang maga ko. "Ohh yah!"

Sam has this what we called 'guilty drama' when she told me that her parents set her in an arrange marriage. Its quite common naman sa aming mga elite ang arrange marriage. I'm just really bless with my parents because they don't have that kind of plan. Maybe because they've been there. My parents face a lot of challenges and difficulties before they receive their happily ever after.

As per her she can't say no to her parents that's why she keeps on saying sorry to me. Kung hindi ko pa alam ay ginagamit lang niya iyon for me to finally be in a relationship. Pero nakakabother din kasi ang 'guilty drama' niya kuno.

One time nga when we went to US and we've decided to meet. She burst in tears when she found out that I'm still single. Even if I told her that its my choice and that she has nothing to do with it but she won't believe me. She became worst when she admit that she is starting to like his fiance, which I already knew from the start. Knowing her, she will not agree on that kind of arrangement if she doesn't love that guy. She's a hopeless romatic girl remember?
