Charmaine:

"Hi." I started. "It's a pleasure to meet you." I casually offered my hand for a shake that he was obviously reluctant to accept. He neither shown other emotions aside from frowning his brows—and he didn't accept my hand.

He sat down. Wala itong kangiti-ngiting nakatingin sa'kin ngayon—completely opposite of his other side.

Wala ring gustong gumalaw sa mga pagkain.

"You're secretary seemed giving me an incomplete detail about this conference, Miss Dela Fuentes." He coldly stated. Napaayos ako ng upo. His voice was stern and dangerous—screaming his authority against me.

And yeah, I got his point here.

"Either yours, too. Your secretary only noted the place and the table number." Dahil ba kung nalaman niya na ako ang ka-meeting niya—he'll decline the offer? He was really agitated—completely!

Gumalaw ang panga niya. His sharp jaw wanted to do something.

"But your company seemed like to negotiate multi-million investments here. What would you like to propose?" Right. I composed myself back. Hell, right! That's why I am here! To negotiate with the wrong person!

What would papa Leandro felt if I put this through? Kahit pa man papayag siya kung sakali—well, the pride would be so bitter for the family, my family!

I grabbed my pouch on the table and stood up. I had decided. "I'm sorry, it seemed there's a mistake, Mr. Istafani." Then I hurriedly walked out from the restaurant and out the hotel. Nagmamadali akong makabalik sa kubo ko baybay ang mabuhanging daan where it could lead me the shortest way to go and locked myself inside my occupied room!

Naiinis ako sa sarili ko!

Nang mapadaan ako sa Isla Cabana—my feet detoured itself and then suddenly found myself inside this cozy bar. Drinking margareta—still doing business on my phone. I was composing an e-mail that was subjected to my father's personal e-mail.

I gotta say to him that the subject investor was Dimitri Istafani—and—sh*t, delete, delete.. Then, I drank another shot before I decided to heed to my vip kubo. It was dark nang makalapit na ako ng husto and I felt a bit of tipsy from drinking five straight shots!

I was about to open the door when someone talked behind me. Someone so familiar..

"You came back.. I thought you forgot about me--and this place." Siya nga! Pero ba't kaboses niya si..Dimitri? I even smelled the same masculine scent of perfume that Dimitri had earlier!

No. It can't be.

"I..I was here for a business meeting—and to meet you again. Actually, wala sa plano kong bumalik sa isla—" When he instantly pinned me on the wall—forcing me to looked straight unto his eyes. All I saw was..Dimitri's fury! Blazing at me..

"So, it's really you, Charmaine. You planned this whole through—you played your game so well. You're so clever.." Hawak niya ng mahigpit ang pulsohan ko ngayon—at dahil wala na akong lakas dahil sa natamaan ako sa ininum ko ngayon—I didn't have enough strength to pushed or kicked him. Hindi ko rin masyadong naiiintindiha ang mga sinasabi niya—it seemed that I was floating in the air right now!

"I don't know what you're talkin about—"

"Lier!" Gigil niyang sabi sa'kin. "This is what you're good at—playing mind games with me. So, how does it feel, huh? Masaya ka na?" He added ripping me by the strength of his every word. Ramdam ko ang sobrang galit niya sa'kin—with his nonsense intuations!

"What to be happy about, Dimitri?" Naniningkit ang mga mata ko ngayon sa kaniya. Hindi ko rin mapigilang hindi makaramdam ng inis rito—ako lang ba ang nagsinungaling? Siya ba, hindi?

"I already have a f***ing plan—for my f***ing life, Charmaine!" He yelled. "at nung dumating ka—nasira lahat, don't you get it!?" When he loosens his grip, I instantly pushed him away. I did. Dali-dali kong kinuha ang susi at was surprised that it was already opened—what the hell? Did he barge in!?

Pumasok ako sa loob and heard the door closed—but still lights off. Much better! "I'm already out of your life—you can go on again! 'Di ba sabi ko nga sa'yo—I wish your happiness and I meant it!" Bulyaw ko sa kaniya. I totally knew what he was trying to imply here—kung anong kasalanan ko sa kaniya—I knew but I didn't want to draw conclusions based of what I felt of his words. He needed to say it, at least!

"How can I f***ing go on when I am completely stuck with you already!?" Arg! This is nonsense!

"You are getting married, Dimitri. Your family hates my family—and that's mutual! You lied, I lied—I called it quits! We made a mistake of knowing eachother—that's it, so tell me, which part have you completely stuck with me?" Even in the darkness, I felt his intense aura.

"Yes, I'm getting married but I could cancel that if you'd wanted me to. Your family hates mine—to hell I care! We both lied, yes but knowing you was never a mistake." Naramdaman ko ang paglapit niya sa'kin—until he suddenly embrace me—so tight..

"Sabihin mo sa'kin, Charmaine—do you like me too? Coz I f***ing like you, so damn much—that I am completely stuck with you! Sabihin mong gusto mo ako—and I'll go against the world.." His voice was calm now—I couldn't help not to close my eyes and felt his every word came into my senses. This person embracing me now—was the same person who'd chose to protect me..

"I.." I guessed I had to lie again.

"A lie won't be necessary—I'll go with your actions." Iyon lang at hinuli ng mga labi niya ang nakaawang kong mga labi dahil sa nais ko pa sanang sabihin..
