Like what I said, kakaiba yung project kasi first time namin gagawa ng gantong project. It was an Airport... in Batanes. There are 2 airports na in Batanes. One is unoperational and the other one is too small and recently is having a lot of problems. They need a new airport, they will demolish the unoperational and we will build a new one. Demolishing will take about a month or two so I still have a month to do an easy project.

I scrolled to my emails and I saw someone wanting to build a restaurant. That was easy I know I can do that. When I saw the name it was Nicole, Nicole Tiamzon. Remember her? The waitress I liked but did not court her. After cancelling our plans the day I comforted Jema we went out once and I kind of liked her. Then we both became busy so there was not time to talk.

To: Nicole Tiamzon

Good Afternoon Ms. Tiamzon, I am willing to sketch you your future coffee shop.

From: Nicole Tiamzon

Thank you Ms. Wong, I would like to meet you whenever you're available.

To: Nicole Tiamzon

What about later? 8pm? Email me your address.

Nicole emailed me her address and I'm about to walk out my office when Jema walked in.

"Where do you think your going?" Sabi niya habang naka cross and arms at nakataas ang kilay.

"Out? Its already 10 minutes pass 5"

"Kelan mo balak idiscuss samin ang project na napili mo? I'm the engineer, I'm supposed to know"

"I'll be calling a meeting tomorrow. Right now, I have to go" nilampsan ko siya.

"Date ba Wong?"

"Casual dinner" sabi ko.

I went out and again iniwan ko si Jema. Can't let the feelings come back. Simpleng lapit lang ni Jema sakin, laki ng impact sa feelings ko. Natatakot ako baka bumalik, masasaktan lang ako.

Stinart ko na ang sasakyan ko and when I looked a the road, Jema was blocking my way. I honked the horn but still she didn't go away.

"What?!" Tanong ko.

"Casual dinner? With who? Sama ko. Casual lang pala"

"No!" Sabi ko then facepalmed myself

"Sa ayaw at sa gusto mo sasama ako" sabi niya at sumakay sa sasakyan ko.

"Damn it Jema" I cursed.

Kakarating lang namin sa condo ni Nicole. Sinundo ko siya sa lobby.

"Jema dun ka ma sa likod" sabi ko and pinanglakiha siya ng mata.

"Fine" Inirapan niya ako at tinignan si Nicole from head to toe which made Nicole feel uncomfortable.

"Nicole, this is Jema,  Engineer siya sa team ko. Jema, this is Nicole, client natin"

"Anong client Deanns, di ko pa nakikita sketches mo baka magdalawng isip ako pag nakita ko" she joked and laughed.

"Di ka ba updated? Deanna's the number one rising Architect sa tingin mo pangit sketches niya?" Sabi ni Jema kay Nicole. This girl nakakainis pero napasmile nalang ako sa sinabi niya.

"I was just joking. Di ko naman alam na ganyan ka pala kaseryoso. Deanna told me you were a funny person."

I forgot. Nakwento ko na nga pala si Jema kay Nicole nung nagkita kami. Nicole also knows na I'm inlove with Jema kaya di ko siya nililigawan.

Nagstop muna ako sa gas station para magwithdraw.

Jema's POV

"Deanna told you what?" Tanong ko.
