"Hi! Good morning everyone!" Mark greeted, then stared at me and smiled.
"Please, welcome our guest from Intel University, Rachelle Evans!"

The spot lighted on me. I was shocked from applauses and shout I heard from the audience. They were so warm in welcoming people. What a sweet hearts.

"Hi! It feels so good to be here in behalf of Intel University. Thank you for all the support! It made my heart flattered." I smiled in front of the camera.

"That sounds great, Rachelle!" Mark smiled widely. "Thank you for accepting this invitation to give a shot for our University." He paused for a moment to check the 5 cards he has on hand. "Let us begin this interview by answering the questions in these card on my hand, which is interesting." He smiled mischievously while staring at the card.

"Sure." I nodded. "That will be fined."

"Alright. First question is what is love for you?" I was taken aback to hear that question no matter how I knew that it might be asked.

Love. Love can make us happy and broken at the same time. Love is the emotion we feel over our loved ones. I wanna say that but it might be a shame to the University where I am studying.

I swallowed many times before answering that question. "Love... It is a happy emotion that we feel every time we were surrounded of our family and friends. It could be the feeling of happiness whenever we were with the special person that makes our heart beat faster." I smiled.

Mark giggled. "Very interesting. Since you mention a special person, one of the student from Intel University asked if you happen to date before?" He looked at me playing with his brows.

"Yes. I dated before-." I replied.

"Then what happened to your date that you were alone every time I see you at school."

I raised my brow. I think this question is not written from any of the cards he has on hand.

"Is that question written on the cards you have on hand?" I asked smiling - raising my right eyebrow.

"Honestly, that question was from me, however, I believe that every person that watching us right now want to hear your response."

Geez! This is invasion of privacy. Arg! I'm going to hit you Mark Villanueva after this bull. I promise that.

"Alright! Not a problem!" I smiled. I don't need to tell everything naman e. "First of all, I am not completely alone at school because I have my friends naman. It was just that I have no time to date as of now because I prioritize my study and family. You know, whenever a person starts enrolling at Intel University, they will be inspired to study harder for their dreams. And that is the reason why I enrolled to Intel University - because they intends to inspire people to do their best for their dreams and loved ones."

"Ahuh. Sounds interesting." He paused. "Due to the out of time, Miss Evans, I will be just asking one last question from netizen. This question is from anonymous person, however it seemed interesting. Alright. May you please read this for everyone?" Mark handed me the card.

"Sure " I took it from his hand.

"If the guy you dated happened to come back-" I paused. Why this interview seemed so scripted, even this question. Arg. Never mind.

I sighed a deep breath before reading again.

Hay. Sobra naman na yata itong question na ito. Hindi na talaga mauulit ang pag guest ko rito. Tss.

"Will you accept him again?" I startled. I sighed a deep breath again. "If he happened to come back to me and explain himself why he left - I will listen to him, then I'll decide later. Because if we really love someone, we will give them innumerable chances as long as they deserve it." I smiled in front of camera. I think I gave them enough answer.

"Thank you so much, Miss Evans, for inspiring everyone that are watching us to love and give chances, also never forget studies and career when we fall in love. I think this interview is  over. Thank you for being with us today - thank you everyone for watching us. We love you all! May you have a wonderful day! Hanggang sa susunod! Bye."

Then the light got off.

I stood up and took my bag and phone. Another unknown number texted me again. I checked the time when I got the text and the screen shows that I received it in the middle of the interview.

Hmm... Sino ba ito?

I checked my call bar. My eyes widened when I found out that it's the same number that Joe has used from the last night that he called.
