The Escort

Chapter 3

*
When I got home, something's at the back of my mind saying that, what if that escort could be my true love. God! Lucy you're not even in the movie.

Dumeretso ako sa kusina upang kumuha ng tubig.

I plop myself on the sofa, I took out from my bag the small book that the agency gave to me, the women said I have to read the terms and conditions in hiring an escort.

*
After reading I realized it's getting late, so I have to cook for my dinner.

After eating, I decided to go upstairs, but before that I'm going to check first the door if it's lock, mamaya may pumasok na mag nanakaw eh.

I took a shower and go to sleep.

*

I was getting ready for the party when the door bell rang. I ran downstairs to open the door, but I'm late he's inside my house now, he's in black suit, he is sitting on my sofa. On his back me.

I cleared my throat. "Excuse me senyore?"

He look at me. "Yes, Madam Lucy right?" he asked and I nodded in response.

"How did you get in?" I ask.

"It's not lock." he response.

"Then why did get in? I don't even invite you." I said sarcastic.

"Ma'am haven't you read the T&C? It's state there that we must act normal, don't feel awkwardness." he said, napaisip naman ako. May tama siya. Okay.

I glared at him. "Okay, just wait here." I  told him and run back upstairs at my bedroom. This time I'm gonna make sure the door is lock baka mamaya makapasok na naman siya.

But, in fairness and pogi niya! Stop it Lucy! Don't flirt with him! Says my conscience. He's so hot with those eyeglasses.

After doing my make up, I put my sandals on, grab my sling bag which can only carry a phone, cards, and lipstick. Walk downstairs, but the escort is not here.

"Hey!" I called out.

He came out from the kitchen. Holding a glass of water.

"What the hell are you doing?!" I shouted at him. He just look me and said "Can't you see Madam? I'm drinking water."

Oh god! He's giving me headache. I think I can't stand him in one night.

"Come on! Faster! We're getting late." I say and he put the glass down on the sink.

*
We are on our way to the party, thanks god, walang traffic.

"When we got there, don't speak too much. Okay?" I tell him. Baka kasi mamaya kung ano ano pa masabi niya dun.

"Yes, Madam."

"Alexander Jacobs right?" I ask.

He nodded in response.

"Phil-Am?"

"Yes, Madam. But my dad abandoned us." I suddenly felt the pain when my dad left me.

"You know what, someone has to leave you in order to grow up strong. Look at me right now. I have a career. But I don't have a family." I said to him. He just nodded.

"Why did you enter a work like this?" I asked him.

"My family depends on me, I have to work for their daily needs." At first sight aakalain mong mayaman siya, he's also English speaking. Pero when pag nag kwento siya.

"Why don't you try modelling."

"Yes, I'm a model too, escorting is just one of my part time, madam." no wonder he's body is good.

*

When we got there, he guided me through the venue.

I hooked my hand on his arms.

"Hey, why don't you just mingle with others, I'll just talk to my client." I said and he said "Okay, if you can'tfind me, I'm just at the bar area."

Akala ko salit lang kami mag uusap ng client pero hindi, he introduced me to his colleague, which is good.

After talking to them, I excused myself to comfort room.

I'm walking to the CR when my eyes caught something familiar, the boy from my dreams, he's here. Baka mamaya panaginip na naman to. I pinched myself. Aww! it hurts. Nasa real world siya.

Slowly I walk on side way, I want to see who is see. But too many girls were flirting with him. I don't give a dime, I just want to see his face badly, so I walk through them and damn! It's Alexander.

Hindi ko manlang napansin kaninang nasa bahay ko siya.

"Oh hey babe!" I look at him, ako ba tinatawag niya? Lumapit ako sakanya. "Girls, this is my girlfriend." they're looked shock. Me too. He just introduce me as his girlfriend.

Hinila ko siya palayo sakanila. "What the hell was that?" I asked him.

"I did that to stop them flirting me, wala akong type sakanila, but they kept on following me, thank god dumating ka." he said and smile.

"Take me home now, I felt dizzy maybe it's the 5 glasses I drank." sabi ko sakanya.

Yes, ganon kami katagal mag usap ng mga colleaguesni Mr. Lee it took me five glasses of wine.

*

"Thanks for the ride." I said he smile and drove away.

Is he really the boy in my dreams? Until now hindi parin ako maka get over.

I can't sleep, so I head downstairs to have a glass of water.

The door bell rang, it's late. What did he want.

I open the door and saw Alexander standing there.

"Alexander."

"Madam, you forgot your bag." and he handed me.

"Thank you. Good night!" and he left.

I locked the door behind me and strode upstairs.
