After mag-breakfast ay nakaramdam si Jelly ng pagka-bored. Nasa living room sya nang mga oras na yon. "Hayyy, sana pala nakasama na lang ako sa mga Oplans nila... But well.. no, I don't have to be there anyways..." Bulong ni Jelly sa sarili. Kumuha sya ng new released magazine kung saan featured ang latest fashion show ng mommy nya. "My mom is really cool..." Jelly just thought na napapangiti habang pinagmamasdan ang mga new creations nito.
Nagulat sya nang maya-maya ay may nagsalita. "Hey girl! Nakita mo na pala ang new creations ko? Bakit naman kasi anak ayaw mo pang sumali sa mga models ko, di sana e mas lalong magiging hit ang mga dresses na yan pag ikaw ang nagsuot." Si Mommy Jill sabay upo sa couch na kinauupuan ni Jelly.
"Mom, I really want to and I really love your creations.. It's just that, it's really not my thing.." Ngumiti lang si Jelly ng matamis sabay hilig ng ulo sa balikat ng mommy nya.
"Hay naku ang anak kong nagmana ng ganda sa Mommy... Sayang naman yang beauty, body at height na yan." Sabay himas sa pisngi at baba ng anak habang nangingiti ito. "Well, but if you find yourself in another field, just tell mommy and I'm gonna support you all the ways, okay?"
"Of course mom.. someday you'll see.." And Jelly kissed her on her cheeks.
"So pa'no maiwan muna kita at susunod ako sa clinic ng dad mo, para naman may maganda syang kasama dun habang nag-wowork.." Sabay kindat.
"Hayyy.. mama ko talaga... O sige po don't worry coz I can take care of myself na naman e." Jelly winked back.
Maya-maya ay lumabas na ang kotse ng mommy ni Jelly.
Jelly decided to just go to the library and read some books.
Just after 15 minutes ay tinawag sya ni Manang dahil may babae daw naghahanap sa kanya sa baba. Tinanong nya kung sino at anong hitsura at sinabi na isa daw friend ni Jasper, maganda at mukhang English speaking. She told Manang to let her in.
Nagmadali sya sa paglabas dahil curious din sya kung sino ang misteryosa nyang bisita.
When Jelly was about to go down the stairs, nakita nyang nakaupo sa couch ang isang girl na sa tingin nya ay kasing-age lang nya. Maganda, mahaba din ang buhok at sa hitsura pa lang ay mahahalata mo na pagka-sosyal at pagiging liberated dahil sa suot na mini-skirt at tank top na decent namang tingnan sa kanya.
Nang makita nitong pababa si Jelly ay tumayo na kaagad ito mula sa pagkakaupo. Nang makalapit si Jelly sa kanya ay ngumiti ito at nag-Hello.
"Hello!" Nakangiting sabi ng bisita.
"Hi!" Medyo nahihiya pang response ni Jelly.
"By the way, I'm Nhea Kitchy Alonzo. You can just call me Kitchy and I'm Jasper's good friend." She said.
"Nice meeting you Kitchy. By the way, I'm Jelly. Ahh, I'll assume you're from Canada too?" I asked hesitantly.
"Nice meeting you Jelly." And she smiled. "Yeah.. Actually I just arrived early this morning and Jasper's assistant just told me that she thinks that Jasper is here? I hope it's okay with you that I got your address from her?"
"No problem.. That's fine... But Jasper is not here right now. I think my brother Jeremy, Jasper and some of our friends went out today.. I don't know.. Let's have a sit first.." Then we sat next to each other. "Can I offer you something? Juice or tea maybe?" Jelly offered.
"Tea will do.. Thanks.." Kitchy smiled again.
Matagal silang natahimik ni Kitchy hanggang sa i-serve ni Manang ang pot of tea and sandwiches.
"Help yourself..." Jelly offered her to get some tea and she also got for herself.
After having one sip of tea, "Ahmm, why you didn't join them, by the way?" Kitchy curiously asked.
