"Ma'am diba po sa PPI kayo?"
"A-ah opo kuya. Eto po oh."
Naputol ang pag mumuni muni ko. Inabot ko sa driver ang limang daan.
Akma sana siyang aabot ng sukli,
"Ay kuya ok na po. Keep the change nalang"
Nahihiyang nagpasalamat ang driver at muling nagmaneho palayo.
I went to my BMW and immediately drove home.
My condo unit is in the 10th floor of the Luxur Place building in Makati.
It's a single bed room unit with a stylish touch in the interior. Sylvia Diaz, the famous designer did my interior design. From my classy living room with the mahogany sofa set imported from Italy by Guisepe Peralti to my exquisite round table in the dining. The bedroom is customized with wallpaper of Japanese Cherryblossoms. The magnificent Queen size bed is really comfy with the cherry pink large pillows and comforter. Hung above the headboard is a huge painting by Henri Fieldich a Dutch artist. It is an impressionist painting of the vast tulip fields of Holland giving the flowers a generous touch of the greens, oranges, reds, yellows and in betweens. The center of the art is an old wind mill that seemed to really turn slowly as you look at it.
My favorite place in the flat is my dreamy bathroom where I would stay for hours in the jacuzzi for a long relaxing soak.
The scented candles I have there are really inviting. So relaxing and soothing to the senses.
I can't wait to go home and get myself off my clothes for a relaxing bath.
"I parked the car immediately and made my way to the elevator.
I pushed the elevator buttons that would bring me to my flat.
Pagkarating na pagkarating ay sumampa ako sa sofa with my stilletos still on.
Such a long day.
I looked at the digital clock beside my LCD Sony Wega T.V. set.
It's already 8pm.
Alex must have received the "yes" already.
My mind imagined Alex and Sam dancing and kissing and happily riding a boat in the small creek of the Fernwood Gardens.
I could only be happy for him. He is sure in love with Samantha. She's so lucky. Alex is a man every woman would care for a husband. The effort he has just to make Sam smile, the way his eyes sparkle everytime he mentions her name.
I saw the house he bought for Sam
and it's really wonderful. Once, I also dreamt of going home to a place where someone waits for me.
I onced believed.
I couldn't believe how I burried my head on my pillow to hide my sobs after I read a Nicholas Sparks book, A Walk to Remember.
