Lumapit si Khirsten kay Malvin na umiiyak sa libingan ng nanay nito. She cleared her throat.
"Malvin"
Mabilis namang pinunasan ni Malvin ang mga mata niya at bumaling ng tingin kay Khirsten.
"Ma'am" paos na sabi ni Malvin
"It's time to go"
"Kailangan po ba nasa ibang bansa kami?"
Khirsten nodded. "Yes Malvin, all of you need to train. Hindi kayo makakfocus dito. There are distractions here. I know you are still grieving because your mother passed away Malvin, but you need to move forward. And I promise to you, hindi mo 'to pagsisihan. Two months lang Malvin, two months"
"Opo. Magpapaalam muna ako kay Nanay"
"Okay. I'll wait outside" umalis si Khirstenat umupo sa hood ng kotse at nagsalita. "Agent 13, please secure Malvin"
"Yes Youngest Princess"

"Khirsten, where have you been?" tanong ng Ate niya ng makarating siya sa bahay nito.
"I sent them to the airport"
"Them? And who are them?" curious na tanong ni Bow
"You will know after two months Ate"
Tumaas lang ang kilay ni Bow sa sinabi ni Khirsten. "Fine then. Anyway, Hiro is here"
"What?!"
"Oh. You looked surprise"
"Where is he? Wait. Bakit mo siya pinapasok dito?"
"Are you angry with me Khirsten?"
"No Ate. Of course not. I mean, hindi ka naman tumatanggap ng bisita na hindi mo kialla, right?"
"I know him Khirsten. He is your suitor. Hindi mo ba alam nasa news kayo"
"What?! How?! Kaya pala. Damn it!"
Biglang nagring ang phone ni Khirsten.
"What?" inis niyang sabi. Damn that Hiro! Akalaniya next week pa mapapabalita.
"Wow. What a nice greeting from you Boss"
Napanganga si Khirsten sa narinig niyang boses. Kinuha niya ang phone sa tenga at tinignan ang caller.
"Boss Aeiou"
Binalik niya ang phone sa tenga niya.
"Boss, it's you"
Kumunot naman ang noo ni Bow sa narinig sa kapatid.
"Yes. It's me. Tampo ako sa'yo"
Tumawa si Khirsten dahil sa accent ng kaibigan niya.
"You are so cute speaking tagalog Boss" tumatawa na sabi ni Khirsten
"Thanks Boss. By the way, who is Hiro? Munich calls me everyday to ask me if who Hiro is"
Khirsten sighed. "I'll call you later Boss. I promise to tell you everything, okay?"
"Shoot! And tomorrow, we have a concert in your country. Be there. I'll tell them. Bye"
"Hey Boss!" sigaw ni Khirsten sa kausap pero nawala na ito linya.
"Who is your Boss Khirsten?" Bow
Napakamot sa ulo si Khirsten. Bakit ang dami nilang tanong ngayon? Parang sasabog ang ulo niya kung sino ang uunahin niyang sagotin sa mga tanong.
