Drae's POV
"What have you all been up to? Parang blooming ang mga lovelife niyo ah." sabi ni Nadine sa amin
Nandito kami ngayon sa 5th floor ng Nexus. Napagpasyahan kasi namin umakyat dito at iwan muna sa baba ang mga lalaki.
"I already told you that Keith or Jossaiah or whatever his name is, is just my colleague." nakasimangot na sagot ni Rielle
"Sana nandito ka kanina Dee, you should have seen Rielle. Sobrang epic ng eksena kanina!" natatawang kwento ko
"Oh shut up! Huwag niyo ng ipaalala ang kahihiyan na ginawa ko kanina."
"How about you Dee? Paano mo nakilala si Luke?" tanong ni Nadine
"Work. Client namin siya." maikling sagot ni Dee
"Ay do you know na siya ang nay ari ng Paradiso Dell' Amore?" tanong ko kay Dee
"Really? I didn't know about it." simpleng sagot nito
"Siya yung sinasabi mong papakasalan mo." pang iinis ko
"Drae, that was just a harmless joke. Masyado mo naman tinototoo. And besides I just said that because of the spur of the moment when we were at Paradiso Dell' Amore."
"Kanina mo pa kami iniintriga. Eh ikaw na babae ka, ikaw nga ang ikakasal eh. Mukhang magkasundo naman na kayo ni Kuya Zyde." sabi ni Rielle
"Kind of? I mean he is nice naman. Sa tatlong araw na busy kami sa pag aayos ng engagement party, maayos naman ang naging moments namin." sagot ko
"So, okay na sayo na siya ang maging asawa mo and not Zyro?" tanong ni Dee
"Zyro was never a choice." maikling sagot ko
"Huwag mo na kaming lokohin, we know you for almost entire of our lives. And we know how much your head over heels kay Zyro." sagot ni Rielle
"Can we just move on from that silly little crush that I had with that guy? I just want to forget everything about it." sabi ko
"Fine, fine. But okay na ba kayo? You'll be a family soon. I mean magiging brother in law mo siya, so I think mas okay na magkaayos kayo." sabi ni Rielle
"Kaya nga. And you've been bestfriends for a very long time. Hindi niyo na ba talaga maayos yung problema niyo?" tanong ni Nadine
"Hindi naman ako ang nagtapon nung lahat ng iyon eh. Pinili niya na mawala ung friendship namin, so be it. Hindi na ako magpapakatanga sa kanya after all that he said." seryosong sabi ko
Natahimik na lang sila dahil sa sagot ko.
"Si Alex ba may duty? Kung wala baka naman pwede siya pumunta dito." pambasag ni Dee sa katahimikan
"Ang alam ko pang umaga siya ngayon sa duty eh. Tawagan natin baka pwede naman siya." sabi ni Nadine
Kinuha niya ang phone niya at agad na tinawagan si Alex. Niloud speaker niya ang call. After 3 rings ay may sumagot sa tawag.
"Hello?" sagot ng isang lalaki
Nagkatinginan kaming apat. May kasama na lalaki si Alex outside working hours? Well, that's new.
