Maganda ang gising ni Ni-Rang noong umaga na iyon. In fact, hindi pa nga sumisikat ang araw ay on the road na siya. It was 3am sa orasan nang room hotel niya. Dahil siguro naging hobby na niya talaga ang mag jogging kahit na sa Manila pa siya. She been living a perfect life already, like some other celebrities at her age as well. Pero para sa kanya, Hindi ito ang pangarap niya. She wanted to become the creator but not the props of it. As she rolled her mind about it over a 100 times, tila na-iinis siya kung bakit hindi nalang sina Rio at Myla ang kinuha nang UBS Production at bakit siya pa ang nakuha nang mga ito.
As she wonders across the entire vicinity of the hotel she notices that even at the sight of its location, it's very attractive. Kung meron lang nito sa Pilipinas, pag-iipunan kung bilhin ang ganito kalagi na hotel. Sambit niya sa kanyang sarili habang nakatingala siya rito. :D
"It's really beautiful..." Na bulong pa niya.
"Yes, it is." pag-sangayon naman nang lalaking nasa likuran niya.
"How many floors does this Hotel have?" Natanong pa niya as if she's expecting for an answer for someone.
"47 floors." sagot naman nito
"47 floors.... 47th floors?" Wow! Hindi ko akalaing kaya nang Seoulite na gumawa nang ganito ka daming floors. Samanatala, kung sa Philippines eh hangang 30 floors lang ang pina-ka maximum.
"So, are you going to work this early?" maya-maya ay tanong nang binatilyo sa likuran niya. She thought that she was only imagining things like she usually do kapag nag-iisa ang dalagita. But as she turned her head around she saw him again. And He was awesomely wearing a cool blue ivory long sleeve with a matching over light colored coat. Dahil dito ay wala'ng magawa si Ni-Rang na tignan niya ito with attraction. She never knew that this man, standing in front of her was the man who saved her from yesterday's event.
"Ang guwapo naman nito sa personal." She heard herself say. Oppz! ano ba yan! bakit ata lagi na lang ako nakaka-pagsalita nang kung ano-ano kung kailang may taong nakadikit sa akin... OMg! may sakita na ata ako sa pag-iisip.
"You think so?"
"Ha?"
"You said I'm Handsome, Am I right?"
"Ha?!" what? Na-iintindihan niya ako mag-tagalog? Talaga? Pag-katapos kung mag-eenglish ditto halos mag-nosebleed na ako… Tapos nakaka-intindi pala ito nang tagalong? WTF!
"Well, if I am right the tagalog word 'guwapo' is an adjective used to describe one's physical attraction." Halatang nakuha agad nang binata ang gusto niya’ng itanong but he wants to savor each confusion she’s showing infront of him.
"How do you know that Sir -?"
"Call me Hwang-Pyo or if your not comfortable with it then try calling from my English Name 'David'." Halatang na-coconfuse na si Ni-Rang pano naman kasi, marunong rin pala ang isang ito mag-tagalog or at least nakaka-intindi pala ito. Hindi lang pala ito spoken-dollar mag-salita kung hindi kahit ang kinalakihan niyang salita ay alam din nito. What a guy! He really knows how to impress a girl.

She gave herself 5 more lapses. Bago tuluyan nang mag-retiro sa pag-jojogging! She feels healthy again, especially doing her rounds every morning. Wala kasi siya'ng oras mag pupunta pa sa GYM para lang maka-pag exercise at saka magastos kapag ganoon. As she retired on a bench near a small park ay inabutan naman siya muli nang antok at pagod. Mashado pa rin namang maaga. Kaya hindi niya kailagang i-rush ang kahit anong bagay. Besides Mrs. Gun Yang-Ni is still in bed, ayaw na niya muna itong gisingin kaya nilibang muna niya ang kanyang sarili habang nakatingin sa mga bituwing na sa langit.
"So, you’re done?" Maya-maya ay narinig nanaman niya ang boses nito. As she turned her gaze to him, his no longer far from her, In fact nakalapit nang binata sa kanya. Tuloy she felt goosebumps all over her. And it means a lot to her… Why? Because As far as her heart is concern, it’s been a half a decade noong huli siya makaramdam nang tuwa at pananabik sa isang lalaki. At hayun siya ngayon natutuwa at the same time natatakot sa maaring kalabasan nang lahat knowing the fact that this guy has been her savior since she dropped off the plane. At ngayon an dito siya kasama nito. Even though, he asked a lot of things from her, she seems not comfortable of telling him how she feels or basically about herself… Bakit kaya? Hindi naman ako ganito dati ah?
