Fragile Hearts

Jealous Jade

Althea was on her way to their set for Frances's photoshoot. Binigay ni Bea ang address dito, she said Louise likes simple views so she assumed it is a high places just like Jade.

She remembered her second shoot with Jade. That wonderful place where you can see the whole city. You can almost touch the sky. Althea smiled at the thought but a call disturbed her thought. Nakita nito na tumatawag si Frances.

"Where are you?" Louise asked.

"Malapit na ako, Frances."

"Well, bilisan mo na, late ka na, De Castro." She can hear the frustration in Louise's voice.

"Sorry, Ma'am. I'll be there shortly." She chuckles.

"Dalian mo." Ibinaba ni Louise ang phone.

"Sorry, I'm late. Start na tayo?" Althea bowed on the other staffs whose busy preparing the things they needed.

They are in a rooftop with a nice view.

Louise then went to her. "Do I look good?" She asked then turned around to show her outfit to Althea.

Simupol si Althea habang pinapakita nito ang suot. She's wearing a black sports bra and a grey sweatpants.

"Damn girl, you're gorgeous. Wanna be mine?" Biro ni Althea dahilan para hampasin siya ni Louise sa braso.

"I'm already taken. Sorry." Louise then stuck her tounge out.

"Oh, sinong boyfriend mo?" Althea was shocked of the new information.

"Girlfriend actually.. soon to be girlfriend." Louise then smiled.

Althea was more shocked. "So Louise likes girls?"

"Ang landi mo." Biro ni Althea dito at inirapan ito, naka tanggap na naman ito ng hampas galing kay Louise.

"It's a wrapped! We're done for today, guys! Good job!" as usual of Althea's line after their shoot. She was bowing to the staffs when Louise came to her.

"Hey, gusto mong sumama?" Tanong ni Louise.

"Saan?" Habang inilalagay ni Althea ang mga gamit sa bag.

"At Bea's. Nandoon din si Jade." Sabi ni Louise at inobserbahan ang magiging reaksyon ni Althea. How she stiffened when she mentioned Jade's name.

"I..don't think I can?" Althea then scrathed her head.

"Oh, come one. Bakit naman?"

"Hinihintay kasi ako ni Marcus sa condo ko." Sabi nito at nanlaki naman ang mga mata ni Louise.

"Y..you guys live toge..ther?" She nervously asked. She's thinking a lot of things now.

"What if Marcus is her boyfriend?"

"Paano na si Jade?"

"I am a fan of Jathea!"

"Yes, mom decided to. Para ko na ring kapatid yon so don't worry." Nakita ni Althea ang reaksyon ni Louise nang tanungin siya nito.

"But why did your mom insisted to?" Louise was confused.

Naghahanap naman ng maisasagot si Althea nang may nakita itong billboard na may iba't ibang Philippines tourist spot. She smiled.

"Nag babakasyon kasi si Marcus dito so me and my mom decided to let him stay in our condo. We'll both go when.." Althea gulped. "Kapag natapos ko na yung work ko dito." Nakita ni Louise ang lungkot sa ngiti ni Althea.
