''Leigh please... Ikaw na lang kasi...'' Pangungulit ko kay Leigh. Nag pacute na ako't lahat-lahat. Binilhan ko pa nga siya nang Krispy Kreme, tapos wala parin. I can't do what our boss wants. Ayokong pumunta doon alam ko kasi na kahit malaki iyong may chance na magkikita kami. Malamang iinterbyuhin pa sila. Hindi ko kayang makita siya nang hindi umiiyak. I can't look at him in his eyes feeling everything while he feels nothing. Bitter na kung bitter. I...I just can't. He's my greatest fear, seeing him, it was my greatest fear. Iyong harap-harapan ganun. I know he won't recognize me and that is why it fucking hurts.


''Alam mo Ady, kung wala lang akong nirurush at kung hindi lang magagalit si boss. Gogora talaga ako, Krzy7 na iyon oh. Mahal ko si Darkh... But sadly, I can't bebe girl...'' She said pouting.


''That's why I told you, I'll do it just do that contract agreement and interview with Krzy7. Please...'' I keep on thinking of many excuses so I won't have to go in a place where Clark is. I can't be in a same place with him and not be with him. Mahal ko siya at sabihin na nating mababaw ako. I can't separate work from my personal reasons. Not when it comes to him. He will always be my weakness.


''Hindi nga. Good chance na iyan tapos gusto mong palagpasin? Dali na.''


In the end wala naman akong ibang choice. I set an appointment sa manager nila. He wants us to meet sa café na malapit sa office nila and that's fine with me. I mean I'm the one who needs them... I was silently praying na wala siyang kasama habang nag hihintay ako. Umorder na nga ako nang bubble tea dahil sa kaba ko. It's not like I'm going to meet him.


''Miss Eisma?'' Tanong bigla sa akin. Gwapo din nang manager nila alam. Naririnig ko kasi lagi kay Leigh. Tumayo naman ako tapos inaabot yung nakalahad niyang kamay.


''Yes Mr. Vasquez...'' I smiled.


''Sorry, I'm late. I have to take Darhk with me because he's kinda stubborn, you already know him right? Darhk she's the one I'm telling you guys about.'' I felt like time stopped the moment he said that name kasabay nang pag lapit nang lalaking pinakakinatatakutan kong makita. I...I'm not prepared for this, it's been six years and I'm still not prepared. Tumango lang si Kent, I mean Darhk.... Yeah, Darhk. Dapat masanay na ako. Dapat nga sanay na ako eh. He looks so bored. Yung parang wala lang siyang choice kaya siya nandito.


''Miss Eisma, are you okay?'' Nakaupo na pala silang dalawa. He was wearing a hoodie and a face mask while looking at his phone. Nung nakahuma ako umupo na ako at ininom yung tubig na inilagay nang waiter kanina.


''Yeah... I—I am okay, so... Our... our company wants Krzy7 to be the issue next month because based on t-the poll they won first place...'' I took out my notebook and pen. This isn't my work but I have to do this... The hell is this. Act normal Ady, huwag mo namang ipahalata na apektado ka oh. Ikaw lang magmumukhang tanga dyan eh. He doesn't give a crap because he doesn't know you.


''Oh, yes... I already talked about that sa CEO namin and she said yes. It was a good publicity for Krzy7 lalo na at mag tatatlong taon pa lang naman sila... The fans already loved them, napagusapan narin nang ibang members and they all agreed.''
