Chapter 7 - Meet
___________

Mahigit isang buwan na ang nakalipas. Lumalabas-labas kami ni Andrix paminsan-minsan para maplano ang sasabihin namin sa araw na ipapakilala niya ako sa mga magulang niya.

As usual, pag lumabas kami mag v-vlog ako. May mga clips na hindi ko sinasali, sa akin nalang yon. Nakakahalata na din ang mga followers ko na may panlalaking boses silang naririnig minsan. Ang iba nagtataka kung sino ang kumukuha ng video ko habang naglakakad. They're making up conspiracy theories na I'm kidnapped daw kaya palagi nalang montage ang videos ko. Buang jud.

"Konti nalang, Dulce." Si Thalia, "Congrats ulit! Alam mo—"

"Hindi ko alam," pambabara ko sa kaniya.

"Sus maayo pag wa ka kahuman og second year college da!" Bato pabalik ni Thalia.
(Sus buti pa kung hindi ka nalang nakatapos ng second year college da!)

"Ang sama mo," tila nagtatampo na sabi ko.

"Saan na si Alexa?" Luminga-linga si Thalia sa mini park ng University.

"Papunta na. Wag kang atat," biro ko. Umikot naman ang mga mata niya at nagtipa sa cellphone niya, "Siya nga pala, binibisita mo ba si Sabrina?"

Napatigil siya sa pagtitipa at tumingin sa akin. She gave me a nervous smile then she shook her head.

"Thalia—"

"I will, okay? This Sunday." She cut my words.

"You—"

"Can't keep her in the dark forever. Yeah I know that already," Pagputol niya ulit.

"I understand you, Thalia, I really do." I looked at her and gave her a sad smile, "But you also have to understand my point. Sabrina is—"

"Malapit na, Dulce. I promise." She gave me an assuring smile.

"Pinky promise?" Ipinakita ko sa kaniya ang aking hinliliit. Inabot niya naman yon gamit ang kaniyang hinliit.

"Alam ba ni Alexa?" Tanong ko.

"Wag na muna," She said at bumalik sa pag-titipa.

I stared at the rustling leaves of the tree we're underneath in. In every gap of the layered branches filled with thick leaves, a streak of sunlight beams. Beautiful.

My phone whistled in my pocket. I took my eyes off of the beautiful view and checked it. Andrix messaged me.

Mr. Devil:
Later. Don't forget.

Napaka intimidating niya sa texts. So serious. Kahit pa mukha siyang maldito, napaka bait niya sa akin. But I have heard rumors, alright. Articles I've read about him states that he is a very ruthless business man, that he wants everything to be perfect, and that even he is working for Nueva Furnitures! Not as a CEO, but an architect.

He technically designs furnitures, and also designed some of their branches. He's very hard-working and passionate about his company. Maybe that's what gives people their impression of him. Well, I can't tell what he is as CEO. Baka nagagalit siya pagpumapalpak ang mga tauhan niya, but that's normal. But then again, I don't know what he's like on his environment.

To: Mr. Devil
Copy sir :D

"What's up pretty ladies." Sabay kaming napalingon ni Nathalia kay Luis. Ang ingay din nitong lalaking to!

"Woah, Dulce!" Dramatikong sabi ni Sky habang papalapit kasama si Alexa, Julia, at Bianca. "Alam kong nakatapos tayo ng second year of college, pero parang business woman ka na sa outfit mo."
