narrations for my au

end pt. 2

malia was just talking to minghao and mingyu about the things she have done for the past almost three months since she came from manila. they were just killing time since the appointment mingyu and minghao have for a museum near her office is still in two hours so they decided to eat merienda in malia's office.

she has her own space, as she wanted it to be minimal and fill the whole room with some of her most treasured shots through the years. as they were just chatting, someone knocked on the door and it was her officemate.

"malia," a strong italian accent was heard as the door was opened slighly and her officemate peeked their head, "la receptionist avrebbe dovuto chiamarti, ma hai visitatori" (the receptionist was supposed to call you, but you have visitors.) the man said smiling while looking back in forth from gyuhao to malia who raised her eyebrows in confusion, "perché mi chiameranno?" (why would they call me?). the man fully opened the door and closed it behind him.

"c'è qualcuno che cerca te e abriana ha chiesto se hanno appuntamento sotto il tuo nome" (there's someone looking for you and abriana asked if they have an appointment under your name.) malia reached for her folder and see the calendar but she furrowed her eyebrows and see that she made her day free today to spend time with minghao and mingyu after their photoshoot yesterday.

she looked up and pouted as she pointed on her paper, "nessun appuntamento oggi..." (no appointment today) but her eyes lit up, "ah, probabilmente quello é vernon.." (oh, that's probably vernon) she mumbles as her officemate gave her a confused look. she smiled and stood up as she fixed her chair, "i'll just meet vernon ha? baka may papa-iwan lang." she says as she went to gyuhao's daughter and pinched her cheeks.

"eh? bawal ba siya pumasok?" minghao asked as he took a bite on his pizza, "bawal sila magpa-pasok dito unless the person have an appointment, eh kayo may appointment kayo sa akin yesterday kaya mabilis kayo nakapasok" malia laughs while mingyu was just chewing on his food as he nods, "sige, balik lang ako." she says as she pats minghao's head and walked side by side with her officemate.

as they reached the lobby, she was confused as to why there were no signs of vernon around. she tapped her officemate's shoulder and asked, "dov'è il mio amico?" (where is my friend?) the officemate turns their head and pointed towards a different direction instead outside the entrance, "eh?" she says more of to herself.

"hanno detto, l'uomo ha deciso di andare in giardino. gli ospiti sono i benvenuti lì però" (they said, the man decided to go to the garden. guests are welcome there though) as her officemate just raised his shoulders because he wasn't sure as well. malia just nodded as she pats her officemate's arm and walked towards the entrance of the garden.

weirdly, as malia opened the glass door, she just stood there looking at the man's back standing near the railings while looking at the views above the river. she was hesitating whether if she will walk towards him or wait for him to see her. she was actually slow walking right now as she felt relieved that she wore flat shoes today so the steps couldn't be heard much. as she was just inches away from him, she spoke,

"ti piace la vista qui in giardino?" (do you like the view here in the garden?) after that, it was silence at first until the man spoke while he turned around, "molto." (very.) he greeted her with his brightest smile as malia jumped in surprise because she was supposed to talk to him more in italian, "e penso che la donna di fronte a me ama la vista qui ogni giorno pure? hmm?" (and i think the woman in front of me loves the view here everyday as well?)

they were just standing there face to face as jeonghan was still smiling from ear to ear. he opened his arms as he signals her to give him a hug. just seeing his face, malia misses a lot as her eyes are glistening because she was too amused to grasp the happenings right now. she felt a tear escape from her right eye as she immediately wiped it.
