"Let's start another season of our life, Love." ---
"Let's remember together all our past experiences while living our lives to the fullest. . . as each other's wives." ---
Will they really be able to say those words at the end of their heartbreakin...
"Viah giiiiirl! I missed y--- Oh wow. Red! Love that!"
Yan ang bungad sakin ng baklitang si Tobi na sinugod na naman ako dito sa office.
He's talking about my hair color.
Yeah. I've been changing it for... three years.
Three years... ganun na pala katagal.
"Kinumpleto mo talaga ang ROYGBIV colors ah! Bongga! Hahahahaha!" he said while slouching back on the couch in my office.
I just rolled my eyes on him.
He looks tired. We haven't seen each other for days. He must've been busy with his botique.
"This would be my last Tobi. I'll change this into my natural black hair color... soon." seryoso kong sabi without looking at his eyes. Patuloy lang ako sa pagkalikot sa laptop ko.
I casted a short glance at him and I saw the sudden change in his expression.
Bigla namang uminit ang ulo ko nang may kumatok.
"Come in." I said, trying to manage my patience.
"M-Ma'am. Mr. Vico wants to talk to you. In his o-office." Andy said, my secretary.
"What??" inis kong tanong.
Bakit hindi nalang siya ang pumunta sa office ko eh siya naman ang may kelangan??
Tss.
"Okay then. Sabihin mo nalang maghintay siya. Tsk. You can go." sabi ko saka siya nagmadaling lumabas.
"Let's go out for lunch later. Wait for me there. Wag ka nang umalis dito sa office. Mabilis lang ako kay Vico." sabi ko saka tumayo at lumabas ng office. I didn't wait for his response.
-----
Hindi na 'ko kumatok at pumasok nalang sa office niya.
"You never learned how to knock." he said, without looking at me. Busy lang siya sa pagbuklat sa mga papel na nasa folder.
"What do you want?" I plainly asked.
"How's your meeting with the inves---" natigil siya nang mapatingin sakin.
"What did I tell you Viah?? I said change your hair color back to normal! Hindi magandang tignan lalo na't we should always be presentable and formal here in the company!" he said.

I just gave him a bored look.
"Yeah. Whatever... I'll change it. Soon." seryoso kong sabi.
Tumayo siya mula sa pagkakaupo.
"Viah... Hindi ka pa rin ba tumitigil? It's been... three years already. Hindi mo masyadong natutuon ang pansin at oras mo sa kompanya. At higit sa lahat, napapabayaan mo na ang sarili mo. I know you're doing everything for the company pero wag mo naman pababayaan ang sarili mo Viah. Spare some time to rest. Nakakapagpahinga ka lang siguro kapag nagpapakulay ka ng buhok... Viah... it's time to let go of the past. Masakit din namang tanggapin para samin. But we should know when to stop Viah." he said.
