"She is a famous model. Indeed, a successful woman. She is now billionaire. Please welcome, Ava Santos Lermojedas." pagsisigaw ng mcee

i immediately grab the remote, and turn off the television.

"Oh, anak. Can't you see you're in the television. You should be proud of yourself, For Godness Gracious."

"For what mama? I've been hearing that news everyday. Aren't you tired of listening? Nakaka umay." i replied

"Okay, if that's your choice. But im still watching it. No forcing, huh? Now, where you wanna go for your vacation?" tanong ni mama

"Well, di pa ako nakakapag decide mama eh, paano halos napuntahan ko na lahat ng destinations that i want to go."

"How about Coron? That would be nice." my mom suggested

"Yeah that's a good idea!, hindi ko pa pala napupuntan ang mga magagandang places here in Philippines. What a great suggestion. Please book for me, mama."

"I'm on it!"

I immediately packed my things para sa aking vacation in Coron! i searched in google and i'm obsessed with it! What a relief!

I'm with Patricia, She's always with me when I'm in vacation. She takes pictures of me. She's my best friend since elementary.

"Welcome to Sangat Island, Coron Philippines!" Pambungad ng Tour Guide namin!

I can't explain what am i feeling right now, i feel like i belong to this place. I feel loved, I can't really explain.

"Ms. Lermojedas? Ms. Lermojedas? Are you alright?" Our tour guide asked me, kanina pa daw kasi ako nakatulala.

"Oh, yeah i feel great. I was just amazed right now." i smiled

"Primo! Andiyan ka na pala!" pagsigaw ng tour guide, na nakasira ng aking momentum.

"Magandang Umaga, Ako si Primo Valencia. Nakatira ako dito at handa na akong i tour kayo dito sa Sangat Island."

Actually i found him cute. I mean, he's tall as the medium coconut trees, his skin is dark, his body is wide.

"Miss, kanina ka pa nakatitig sa akin. Baka matunaw ako?" He tease me like he know me

"Excuse me, in your dreams. Let's go na nga Patricia!" Pagmamadali ko.

"Miss, dito yung daan" at tumawa na parang wala ng bukas

"You always misguide me." i reasoned

"Huh?" pagtatanong niya

"Walaaa-, sabi ko ang gwapo mo"

"Actually i am not ma'am, i just want people to be happy. That's my job! But thank you for calling me handsome." He explained

What? I thought he live here? How can he speak english? And he even understand me.

"Oh c'mon Ava, don't mind it." Patricia making fun of me

"What a nice name." He shouted

"Shut up kid!" I shouted

"Well, i am cute but i am not young for you to call me a kid."

"So, how old are you then?" I asked

He didn't answer my question, and he's looking directly to the floor and felt sad like i did something bad? Did i?

"Let's go Ave!" Patricia grabbed me to start walking here in the island

Ilang oras din kami nag lakad. Btw, we will be staying here for 6 days. I am still confused about Promo? Promi? Primo? Yeah right! Primo.

"Let's go to our room, Ave! I am tired." Patricia brief me off

While Patricia is sleeping i go for a walk, in front of the sea. Drinking my wine.

"Cheers" Primo approached

"Cheers." I replied

"Primo, right" i asked

"Yes, Avey?"

"Ava"
