14 hours travelling, back to Manila. Buti buhay pa ako. Came back from Italy kasi I attended Italy Fashion Week, and met Gigi Hadid there. We have a small talk lang and she said that she will be going to Manila before Christmas kasi meron siyang fan meeting.
Here I am, in my condo, still lying down. Medyo pagod pa ako kasi 3 hours palang ako nakakarating dito sa condo ko. Pero I need to get up early.
I prepared my suit already dahil may i-me-meet akong big client kasi her manager contacted me through email.
As soon as I meet them, our big client is Maine Mendoza. I met her before and she said na she is likely to have a collaboration/magazine shoot with The Focus. The 2 hour meeting was finally finished and she agreed on our terms and condition since she is now on her 5th year anniversary in the showbizness.
At exactly 12noon, I arrived at Makati Penthouse, where The Focus is located. Ayoko maging friendly masyado sa mga workers ko, baka kayan-kayanin lang ako and never ng mag-exert ng effort. The HR told me na may part-timer uli na natanggap, so I need to check him/her.
Pagdating ko ng office pinatawag ko 'yung bagong pasok na part-timer.
"I'm Jah de Dios po."
Medyo familiar 'yung name niya. Parang naging kaklase ko nung high school sa St. Vincent. Kaya tinanong ko siya, ayon, magkakilala pala kami, and magkaklase pa. Hindi ko na tinapos 'yung highschool doon since lumipad na kami pa-US nina Dad since nagkasakit si Mom until she died there. My mom usually call me Ken, and I hate it when someone will call me Ken kasi naaalala ko lang lahat, yung pakikitungo ko sa Mom ko bago siya magkasakit, until she died. Kaya ayokong tinatawag akong Ken.
At 8PM, dumiretso ako ng BGC to meet my friends and old colleagues. We drunk whiskey, tequila, everything. Gusto ko makalimot uli since naalala ko ulit ang lahat. They call girls for all of us, and syempre. We make out. I brought the girl to my office, at ayoko sa condo ko. We made out there, until the part-timer came inside of my office.
"Take this, and go out." Sabi ko sa babae.
Pagkauwi ko sa condo ko, I started to do my things: fixed the contract between me and other magazine EIC, and stalking Jah de Dios's facebook account. I don't have any memory of me hanging out with him so siguro nga classmate lang talaga kami.
Until I saw a familiar group picture.

I knew it. Naalala ko na. Siya 'yung kaibigan ko na nakabrace noon. Naalala ko na. Magtotropa pala kami noon. I won't tell him nalang na alam ko para hindi na maungkat ang lahat-lahat pa.
I used to go with them back then kasi nagrerebelde ako sa Mom ko. I hate it kapag lagi niya akong tinuturuan ng dapat kong gawin. Ayoko non. I want to do things on my own. Kaya simula nung namatay si Mom, naguguilty ako kasi never ako nakahingi ng tawad sa kanya. I feel so sad now.
Maybe I should drink again now, but here in my condo nalang.
