After the very satisfying breakfast, Kuya Carmel invited me to wander around. He looks so serious all the time. I just have unveiled that behind his stern face hides a disarming sense of humor.

On our way back to the hotel, nakasalubong namin si Daniel with the ex. Tss.

"DJ. Mind introducing the beauty to us?" Kuya Carmel chaffed over the widely-smiling-ex.

"Sab, my brother Carmel and---"

"We have met this morning. 'SAVANA' right?"pang-aasar ko.

"It's Sabrina."she corrected maintaining her almost-choked-smile.

"Oh. I'm sorry. Of course. Sarina."

"Sabrina."she corrected again. Nagbago yong expression ng mukha niya. Hahaha.

"Yeah. Whatever. See you around then Sabira!" I said cheerfully.

Nagtawanan kami ni kuya Carmel nang makarating kami sa lobby.

"What was that for?"tanong niya.

"Trouble with two-faced exes."wala sa sariling nasagot ko.

Natapik ko ang noo ko sa sinabi ko. Oh gosh! Nakakahiya! Did I just really say that in front of his brother?

"It's okay princess. You're safe with me. I'm your big brother!"

"Oh! How sweet of you Kuya Carm! Thanks."

Kanina pa ako nakangiti habang hinaharap ang sarili ko sa salamin. Kusang nagre-replay 'yong conversation namin ni Sabby. Eww. What a bloody name!

"Chandria... It isn't right---"

Nabigla ako ng pumasok bigla si DJ.

"Hey. Learn how to knock---"

"Why did you do that? You're humiliating her---"

"I didn't do that on purpose!"pagtanggol ko sa sarili ko. "I just can't say her name right, is that my fault?"

"Oh really Kath? How about not shaking her hand this morning? Didn't you also do that on purpose?"

"Fine! I don't like her! You can't force me to like your girls!"

"That's immaturity."

"Just get out."I said fiercely.

Hindi siya kumibo. Fine! Ako ang lalabas! Sh*t! Why is he following me?

"Ano ba?"

"Why don't you like her?"

Napatigil ako sa tanong niya. Bakit nga ba? Why can't I like her? Damn.

"It's not important---"

"It is for me."malamig niyang sagot.

"I'm afraid I can't tell you that."

Dali-dali akong tumakbo palayo sa kanya. Sa halip na mainis ay natatawa parin ako. Naglalaro kasi ng paulit-ulit sa isip ko ang mukha ng babaeng 'yon na nagpigil lang na mainis sa'kin.

I'm not letting things ruin my day! Kahit mag-isa ay inenjoy ko ang sarili ko sa amusement park ng resort. I went through bumper cars, carousel and monorails. That was really fun!

"Hi. Can I buy you something to drink?"anang lalaking di ko kilala.

"N-no. Thank you."

Kinabahan ako sa mukha niya. Hindi siya pangit. He doesn't even look scary at all. With those light brown eyes and pouty lips, he even looks like an angel. But didn't the maxim say looks are deceiving?
