The barkada went home that day after they dropped Xian off the airport. Kim went home that day and started fixing herself. She was getting ready for the work she got
to do for her new coffee shop and Xian who will be going back to school in the States will be busy all year long.
~~~~~~~~~~
"KIIIMMM!!" The next morning Maja shouted throwing a pillow on her face, "Wake up!!!"
She groaned and hid her face under her pillow.
"Come on! I wanna hang out with the barkads!" Erich said throwing another pillow.
"Fine!" Kim said and sat on her bed, and stretched, "Good Morning!" She smiled.
"Oh! Kim! When are you going to start your coffee shop?" Lauen asked.
"Today! I'm gonna go there because there are people that will renovate everything and I'm gonna go shopping today for the supplies!" Kim said.
"That's sounds good! You want me to help you?" Lauren asked.
She smiled, "Yes! Thank you!"
"But I thought we are going to hang with the barkada?" Erich said.
"Oh, I'm sorry! Maybe tomorrow!" Kim said.
"We can't tomorrow! Enrique is busy for his course tomorroe, I am going to enroll. We can't hang out tomorrow." Maja said in a pissed off voice.
"I'm sorry, but I can't today..." Kim said softly in an apologize voice.
Maja threw her hands up in the air, "Fine!" She said and grabbed Erich to leave the house.
Kim sighed and just went to the bathroom to get ready. After a while, Kim and Lauren left the house to go and check the coffee shop.
"WOW! This place is really nice!" Lauren smiled.
"Thanks! I actually can't wait 'til this place will be open!" Kim said.
"So? Ready to get this place fix?" Lauren asked and they both went to the store to buy some furnitures and supplies for the coffee shop.
With The Barkada.
"Hey guys!" The boys smiled when Maja and Erich arrived in the mall.
"O? Nasaan si Lauren at Kim?" Enchong asked.
"Ay naku! Hindi ko nga alam kung bakit nag iiba na ang ugali nang dalawang yan! For this past days, Kim has not been anything but busy for her shop and then Lauren
is there helping her everytime. Parang nakalimutan na tayo!" Maja said.
"Hindi naman siguro. Sympre, kailangan din ni Kim to have time for her shop. That's her business!" Enrique said.
With Kim and Lauren.
"So Kim, when do you think this will be all be done?" Lauren asked.
"I don't know I think by the next few weeks kasi hindi naman marami ang kailangan e fix." Kim said and her phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hey hon!" Xian said in a cheerful voice.
"Hon! How are you?!"
"I have been good. Enrolled nako sa school! E ikaw?"
"Good din at nandito ako sa coffee shop to fix everything! In a few weeks this shop will be open!" Kim said in a excited voice.
"That's great! I can't wait--"
"Um.. Hon, I gotta go. I'll call you later okay?" Kim said and hung up the phone.
Kim have been busy for weeks now and whenever Xian and her talked she can't finish the conversation because she gets busy easily. Xian who is going to school now
have been also busy and sometimes doesn't have time to call Kim in the Philippines.
"Kim, how's Xian?" Maja asked when they walked into the almost finished coffee shop of Kim.
"I don't know. I haven't talk to him in a week." Kim said pointing to one of the workers to finish the part they didn't finish yet.
"He told me that you haven't been answering your phone and if you do you never talk to him long enough." Maja explained.
Kim sighed and looked at Maja, "Look, I have been busy and I know he is too. So he understand. It's not like I forgot about him." Kim said and went to one of the
workers again.
"Fine! I guess I'll see you!" Maja said and walked out of the shop; pissed off.
~~~~~~~~~
"I don't know her anymore!" Maja complained to her friends at the park.
"Yeah, she don't even hang with us anymore!" Erich said.
"Xian said that everytime he calls her she never really listen to their conversation because she is either busy or tired." Enrique added, "Maybe we need to talk to her.
Where's Lauren anyway?"
"She's with Kim." Maja said.
"Even her got caught up with Kim's business." Enrique said, "We don't even see each other anymore that much."
"It is because she wants to help Kim and I guess she got busy with it too."

Dear Kim,
You haven't answered your phone for a while. You haven't called me in a while. How are you? How's your business?
I heard that you haven't been hanging with the barkada for a while. What is happening to you? You've changed.
Please call me as soon as you can. I love you!
Love, Xian.
Kim read the letter that Xian sent her and she set the letter back down in the table. She sighed and she knows she just miss him so much that's why she doesn't wanna
talk to him. She doesn't answer the calls because she knows she will miss him more. She doesn't hang with the barkada because she feels incomplete without Xian
around. She kept the letter on her drawer of the bedside table and went to sleep that night.
To Be Continued...
