Regine's Point of View

"CAN I go now? Nagpaalam naman ako kila Javier e na isang prod lang ako." I pleaded Grazia's manager.

"Bakit ba kasi nagmamadali ka?" Tanong ng manager.

"Dahil may presentation pa kami bukas sa Sonrisa. So pleaaaase let me go." One-fourth lie.

"Hays. Sige sige! Buti nalang andito si Jessa. Sige na alis na bago pa magbago isip ko!" Pagsusungit nito. Pero actually, mabait talaga yan hihi.

"Aww, thank you Cai! I owe you this one." I hugged her. Removing my heels and changing onto my Havaianas, I went off Grazia's.

Actually, ayos lang naman na mag overtime pa ako. Mag-oovertime nga sana ako ngayon kung di ko pa nakita si Ogie! Yes, I saw him! I saw him sa kalagitnaan ng pagkanta ko, god why am I so dumb! Narinig niya lahat ng mga pinagsasabi ko kanina, this can't be! I completely forgot na andito pala siya sa Baguio! I know hindi niya ako nakikita mula sa pinag-uupuan niya but the kwento can be a clue also! Shit, this is so messed up, really.

My mind suddenly went blank when someone pulled my shoulder to face...him.

"You left your phone."

Fuck.

"Ahm, sige thank you." Then looked at him and walked away.

Chasing after me, he held my hand kaya napatigil ako. "Why were you at Grazia's anyways?" Isip Regina, isip!

"Ah, I was meeting someone. Hehe." I reasoned out. Lord, sana naman umepekto!

"Oh. In this hour?" Alcasid!

"Yes. I see nothing wrong with that?" Tama na pleaaaase.

"Okay." Then he let me go. I just smiled at him at naglakad na ako papalayo.

Then he louden his voice. "Nice song for me anyways. Thank you for that." My body automatically spinned to him. Sabi na e. I'm doomed.

"H-ha?"

"Alam ko ikaw yun." Naglalakad ito papalapit sa akin.

"I don't understand..."

"Syempre di ka naman aamin." He's a feet away from me now.

"Ah, yung singer ba? K-kaboses ko lang s-siguro yun hehe..."

"Aamin ka o hahalikan kita?" Ha? Bat may desire sa mga mata niya? Eeeee takte kasalanan mo to self bat ba kasi may paganun-ganun ka pang nalalaman e!

"Oo na! Ako na nga yun!" Hindi naman sa pavirgin effect pero... eeeee basta!

"Hahahahaha! You should've seen your face Regina." Tinawanan lang ako? Potek?

"Langya ka!" Hinampas ko siya ng stilettos ko. Pero wa epek, tawa pa rin siya ng tawa.

"Can I take you to Oracle? Can you spend the rest of the night with me?"

Hindi na ako nagpaligoy-ligoy pa. Gaya nga ng sabi ko kanina, this is fate. "U-uhm, sige." Nabigla ako sa sunod niyang ginawa. He carried me, bridal-style.

"Wait what- put me down Herminio Jose!" I yelled at him.

"Ayoko nga. Your feet hurts, I know." I became quiet. It's true. Kaya I switched my stiletto to my slippers.

"But not like this, I can walk."

"Pero gusto ko nga kargahin ka ng ganito. Andito na nga tayo sa sasakyan o." Then he put me down. Binuksan ko ang back door but he closed it.

"I'm not your driver nor your bodyguard Ms. Velasquez. Sit beside me." Napalunok ako ng laway sa sinabi niya. Bwakang bat ang hot niya?!

Wala na akong nagawa, I found myself sitting on his passenger's seat. Tahimik lang kaming dalawa sa sasakyan, and it was deafening.

"Nakita kitang may kasama. Sino yun?" I asked, breaking the ice.

"Si Gabriel."

"Gabriel who?"

"The one who you supposed to meet earlier this morning." Oh my gulay. Yung crush kOh!? Charot.

"Si Mr. Concepcion?" My eyes widen. Tumango lang ito bilang sagot. "How did the two of you know each other?"

"Magkababata kami. We separated when we were in highschool and met again in college. We took the same course and enrolled in the same school, that's why." He said, smiling. Ang gwapo ng side profile niya. Potek. Bye world.

"Ahh, now I get it. Don't tell me alam mo rin na siya yung ka-meet up ko after we talked?" Malay natin diba! Isa na talaga siyang napakalaking stalker pag ganon! Hahahaha!

"No, love. That time was, siguro, coincidence." My heart leaped when he said the magic word. Love..... Love. Ohhhhh my looooove~ Ay hehe sorna.

"We're here." Wow. So he has this renovated pala. "Amazed? Hindi mo pa ba nalibot tong lugar?"

"We are always getting in through your back entrance." I chuckled. "Mas malapit kasi sa hotel premises."

"Sabagay." He gave his key to his driver niya ata yun and parked for him. Narinig ko ang mga bulung-bulungan ng staffs nito.

"Si Ma'am Regina?"

"Ay nako, pagkaganda-gandang babae talaga niya!"

"Anong ginagawa niya dito?"

"Bagay sila ni Sir!"

Deep inside, I just laughed at their reactions. I mean, hindi naman ako kalakihang tao dito sa area, but they consider me as one, pero promise I'm not that mighty as they think.

Nabigla ako ng dire-diretso lang kami. I thought we are going to a room or something.

Huy Regina! Isip mo masyadong advanced! Hello!

Instead, he took me to their shore. Ang ganda. The stars are twinkling, kita mo dito yung constellation ng Archer, Big Dipper at Cassiopeia. Tapos yung paligid malinis, maganda. Taob yung dagat, seems like the moon touches the sea's horizon. It was wonderful.

"You like it?"

"Yes, super." Still amazed by the surroundings.

"I want to take you here with me. I want to share this amazing night view with you." He said, still eyes on the shore.

"Bakit ako? Pfft." May feelings ka sakin? Ganun? Imposible.

He faced me. "Kasi masaya ako kapag kasama kita. Hinahanap-hanap kita palagi. Di ako mapakali kakaisip sayo. I know I just met you, but it's already driving me crazy." He said, sincerely.

"Anong ibig mong sabihin?"

"We are not teenagers anymore, Regine. I am not tolerating this urong-sulong attitude. My feelings are firm and sure. I like you. So much. And I also believe that these things? These things are meant to be. That this is exactly where we'd fall."

Then he held my hand. "I don't want things to get rushed. I am not even sure that you also feel the same-"

I cutted him off and lingered my arms around his neck, halata sa mukha niya na kinakabahan siya. "Manligaw ka muna?"

He let out a deep breath. "Jusko naman, akala ko basted ako e. Syempre naman. All for you, love."

And we kissed each other under the moonlight.
