Andie's POV

*December 29 10:35 am*

"Are you really THE ANDIE LEE?"

He asked me inside an ice cream parlor. Well, actually, a famous ice cream parlor which he does not know I endorse. What can I say? Your girl is famous! Lol.

"Yeah, I already told you several times. I am Andie Lee. The Andie Lee that LOVES SURPRISES!" I answered as I eat my ice cream. This is why I endorsed this ice cream. It's so good!

Wait a second. Did he just..?

"What is it you call me?" I asked.

"You love surprises?" He asked.

"Idiot. I asked, 'What did you call me?'"

"Andie Lee?"

"Andie Lee?" I pressed. "So you now believe I am Andie Lee?" I asked in a puzzled tone. "Aren't you the same guy who called me in different names just because you do not, or cannot accept how I introduced myself?"

"So you really are Andie Lee? The Andie Lee that loves surprises?" He asked, gasping.

"Yes, the Andie Lee that love surprises."

"Are you certain?"

"Seriously, despite that life size cut-out, despite my face in this menu, you still do not believe I am Andie Lee? You are idiot beyond measure." I said sarcastically, but instead of being pissed off, he gave me a shocked face.

"Cut-out?" He murmured.

Tapos, tumingin siya sa likod kung saan nakatayo yung stand-in ko. Tapos tinignan niya ako at yung stand-in ko ng paulit-ulit, I need to stop him because he is making me dizzy.

"Stop it!" I yelled with authority. He stopped, and then looked at me with a confused face.

"What.. how.. why???" He asked childishly. Oh God.

"I understand this comes out a little surprising, but will you try to act normal just this once? I can't enjoy my ice cream if your head turns like tornado in front of me. Okay?" I told him nicely but he gave me the 'What' gesture.

"You just do not understand human language, don't you?" I sighed as I reached for the tissue. Then, just like that he grabbed my hand, and unbelievably said~

"So you really are Andie Lee." He whispered softly under his breath as he stares at my hand.

"Seriously, go get a doctor." I answered as I proceeded to reach for the tissue, but, once again he stopped me. I looked at him. "What do you want?" I asked nicely. Why am I being nice? Because he was not harsh.

"Are you Andie Lee?" He asked without removing his eyes on my hand. His voice was so soft it almost sounds nostalgic.

"Yes." I simply answered. "You finally figure it out." I gave him a simple smile. "How did you figure it out anyway?" I asked as I take a break from eating. Now he has my attention.

"Your wrists watch." He answered softly.

"I am sorry what?" I asked as I tilted my head in disbelief.

"Your wrists watch."

"What about my wrists watch?" I said as I hear my heart pounding a little bit faster than normal. My eyes watched his mouth's movement as he slowly uttered his next words. His next words that made my heart unstable.

He looked at me. "1960s Scheurtz Nia D9."

"How do you know that?" My mouth automatically asked. And I couldn't agree with my mouth more. How did he know that? Could it be~

"I know someone who has the same watch."

"WHO!?" I exclaimed. "Who is that person!?"

"My.." He prompted as he gathers strength to tell me the next words.

"..Who?" I encouraged as my voice weaken.

"My.. M----"
