Hailey's POV
NYC is one of the best places for me. Pero after a jerk broke my heart. After couple of hours i found myself riding a plane from NYC to manila. I swear every guy has a intention of hurting us, trust isn't visible in their eyes, and every time they open their mouth lies come out.
'Fabiana hotels' basa ko sa pangalan ng hotel kung saan ako magche check in, i have no choice. Nag migrate na kami doon 4 years ago, i feel like wala na akong kakilala dito sa pilipinas.
Hate you jetlag, curse you.
But i didn't bother to rest, to sleep. Tumayo ako at hinaluglog ang ref dito and luckily got some milk and cereals.
Pagkatapos i spent 2 hours deciding what to wear, as you can see balak kong mag party all night long, get wasted, ilalabas ko lahat ng sakit at lungkot, papakasaya ako hanggang makalimot ako.
Took a shower for about an hour to fully cleanse my body, blow dried my long hair for half an hour, and finally did my makeup for an hour and a half. This happens almost everyday. It takes time and effort for a beautiful lady like me.
Beautiful? Of course. Pero tinaob ako ng isang malanding walang kwentang babae na malamang pinulot lang somewhere.
Pagdating dito sa night club that i used to go when i was 17, trespassing at its best. All eyes were on me whose wearing a bloody read off shoulder dress thats hugging my sexy body, exposing my curves.
"Tequila please" sabi ko sa bartender once naka upo na ako, afyer couple rounds a fine man sat beside me.
He is handsome, sure he is. Pero it seens like kakaiyak niya lang, too bad. Napansin niyang naka tingin ako sa kanya, he met my eyes, for the first time i saw truth and bit of innocence in his eyes.
Little by little we started to chat as we dranks shots and shots of tequila.
I stayed for another 3 months na akala mo walang modeling job sa NYC na naghihintay.
I am looking at him as he takes a sip of his cappuccino, 'Hailey it's now or never' sabi ko sa sarili ko. I am determined. Kaya ko to.
"Ivan i like you" sabi ko na hindi pinapakita ang ano mang hesitation. I am Hailey Millers, and proud to say that i like this man, i like Ivan Johnson.
nang dahil sa sinabi ko nasamid siya, lumapit naman ako to pat his back.
"Too bad, looks like advanced ako" sabi niya out of the blue. Just what?
"Huh?" Tanong ko and i even tilted my head ti the right na naka kunot noo
"I love you dimwit" sabi niya. I dobt know what to feel, should i be happy cause he love me? Or should i be mad cause he called me a dimwit?
"Why do you love me?" tanong ko, i want to see if he isn't lying, i want to see his eyes twinkle just like evwrytime he tells the truth.
"I love yoy cause you are you, nothing less notgibg more. My Hailey as always." sabi niya looking straight into my eyes.
Then finally nakuha ko na ang gusto ko, his eyes twinkled a lot in front of me.
I found him. he found me. We found each other when we're both down, now we're holding on to each other while rising above the ones who hurted us.
