Heaven on Heaven (COMPLETED)

Chapter Three.

She was given a job to do, in fact one of the things she likes. Taking pictures plus doing make up. Pinakita niya ang ilang shots na kuha niya. At dumating din doon ang lukaret niyang best friend. She didn't know na ka-close pala nito ang mga Villacencio's, Lagdameo's, even Alegre's and Estaquio's. Nalula siya, e puro yayayamanin kaya yon sila!

Well, actually. She was given three days to rest at ngayon ang start ng trabaho niya. She'll be one of the make up artists, mamaya photographer din siya. She don't mind kung mahihirapan siya, basta ang iniisip niya, mageenjoy siya.

Papunta na siya sa AV. Dala uli niya si Range. Well, siya na lang magisa ngayon. Hindi na niya kasabay pa si Kuya Nikolai. Sumaglit muna uli siya sa Saffron's para bumili ng carrot cake at dark mocha latte.

Binati siya ni manong guard at ni ateng receptionist saka siya sumakay ng elevator papuntang 25th. Wala sana siyang kasabay nang may pumigil sa pagsara ng pinto ng elev. Agad niya namang pinindot ang open button.

"Thanks." She heard the guy said. Tumango lang siya pero hindi niya ito pinagtuunan ng pansin. Hindi naman nito sinabi kung saan floor ito kaya pinabayaan na niya. Besides, mukang busy ito sa kapipindot sa phone nito. May ilang mga empleyado ng AV ang mga nagsakayan kaya napasiksik siya sa may sulok ng elev. Ilang empleyado ang bumati rito ng 'Good morning' na sinuklian naman nito ng bati at isang ngiti. She heard some of the girl giggles.

Grabehan lang.

She waited until the 25th. Nalula siya ha. She lightly shakes her head. Nakita niyang papunta rin ang lalake sa direksyon ng ACD Office.

Baka bagong ACD? She just shrugged her shoulders saka sinundan ito. In fairness, hindi ito suplado. Actually, ang tangkad nga nito. Tantya niya, nasa mga 6'2 ito. Hanggang balikat lang siya, or more likely hanggang upper part ng chest nito.

She knocked three times saka siya pumasok. Nakita niyang kausap nung kasabay niya si Miss Hero. She was supposed to put her things when someone tugged her shirt.

"Hey, your shoelaces are untie. You might trip." Napatungo siya sa nagsalita. Isang cute na cute na batang lalake ang may hawak ng tshirt niya. At nakaturo sa shoelaces niya.

"Uh, thank you." Bata pa lang, inglisero na.

"You're welcome." Sagot nito saka tipid na ngumiti sa kanya. Umalis na ito sa tabi niya saka nagpunta kay Miss Hero.

"Good morning!" She was startled. Hindi niya kasi naramdaman na may tao sa likod. She heard someone giggled.

"Sorry, Uly. Nabigla ba kita?" She turned, it was Miss Sanya.

"Medyo po." She shyly answered. Ramdam niyang namumula na ang tenga niya. "Good morning po pala."

"Aww, ang cute! Namumula yung tenga mo." Napansin nito ang tenga niya.

"Ninang Sanya!" Tawag nung batang lalake.

"Oh? Hi, Storm! Good morning." The kid rushes to Miss Sanya then kisses her cheeks. "Andito ka rin pala, Sean." Bati nito sa nakasabay niya sa elev.

"Yep. Morning, Ate Sanz."

"Let me guess, ikaw ang magaalaga sa batang 'to no?" Turo nito kay Storm.

"Sort of?" He chuckles.

"Ay nga pala. May bagong recruit na photographer slash make up artist ang AV. Sean-y, meet Uly Villarama."

Sean offered his right hand to her. Which she took and shake his hands.

Electricity.

"Uly Villarama?" Sean asked her.

"Ah, short for Ulysses." She said.

"Oh, I see. Nice to meet you." He smiled at her. Muntik nang malaglag ang puso niya.

"Same here." She gave him a small smile.

He lightly let go of her hand. Then they heard a knock. Napalingon sila sa glass door. And they were greeted by greek god.

Like ano ba? Nasa Mt. Olympus ba ako?

"Good morning."

"Papsi!" Storm said and runs towards the guy.

"Hey bud."

"Kuya." She heard Sean uttered.

"Oh, you're already here. I thought mamaya ka pa?"

"I woke up early. Zeno, me and Seb jogged around the village."

"You know Zeno Dela Merced and Seb Samaniego?" She asked.

Napalingon uli ito sa kanya. "Yea, we're best friends. You know them?"

"Uh, oo. Best friend ko kasi yung asawa ni Zeno, si Echo. And Seb? Well, I met him at Zeno and Echo's wedding."

"You were there? How come I didn't saw you?"

"Oo, pero hindi ako kasali sa mga abay. I was the make up artist tsaka isa sa mga organizers. Hindi rin naman kita nakita. At kung nakita rin naman kita, maybe you'll be familiar. Kaso hindi." She explained.

"Oh, I see. Well, you did a good job to Echo and the whole wedding." 

"Salamat." She smiled. Tumango naman ito sa kanya.

Then she looked around. Miss Sanya has a playful smile on her lips. While Miss Hero and the guy beside her are smiling at them?

Pinilig niya ang ulo niya. "Ay, Uly. Meet my husband, Thunder Villacencio. Sean's brother."

"Hi, nice to meet you." Thunder offered his hand to her.

"Same here po."

"And this is our son, Storm."

She waved her hand. "Hi again. Thank you uli."

Storm smiled at her. "You're welcome po."

"Why is she thanking you, bud?" Sir Thunder asked Storm.

"Ah, her shoelaces were untied. And I told her. That's why." Sagot nito na busy na sa kakapindot sa phone ng mama nitong si Miss Hero.

"Oh, good job bud."

"Thanks, Papsi."

"I'll go ahead. I'll see you later both." Pagpapaalam ni Sir Thunder sa asawa nitong si Miss Hero.

"Pupunta ka pa ba dito or sa lobby na lang tayo magkita?"

"Let's see." Hinalikan nito sa noo si Miss Hero at sa buhok naman si Storm. Tinanguan naman sila nito.

"Kuya, dinner later kina Nanay."

"Alright. See you there." Tinapik nito ang balikat ni Sean.

Lumabas muna si Sean, nagpaalam itong sasaglit muna sa Ramone's.

"Oo nga pala, nagi-invite sina Tita Sky at Tito Earth!" Bulalas ni Sanya.

"Are you going, 'Nang?" Tanong ni Storm.

"Oo naman syempre. Sina George ba, Hero?"

"Yep. Nanay Sky invited everyone. Sama ka na rin, Uly." Pagaaya sa kanya ni Miss Hero.

"Po? Nako, okay lang po. Nakakahiya naman po." Tanggi niya.

"Nako, wag ka na mahiya! Sabi mo di ba, best friend mo si Echo? Andun din si Echo mamaya. Sama ka na!" Umabrisyete pa sa kanya si Miss Sanya. 

"Hindi po ba talaga nakakahiya?"

"Sus, wag ka na nga mahiya. 'Tong batang 'to oo. Malay mo, maging part of the family ka na rin." Miss Sanya winked at her.

Luh, ano raw?
