Unknown number:

Why did you leave so soon? I still have a surprise for you.

I immediately deleted the message that beeped to my phone. It's probably someone pranking me again. My past classmates back in London love to prank me through messages and it's not new to me at all. Nakailang text na din ito ngunit hindi ko naman ito pinapansin.

And my phone is protected by a Cyber Security System, I have a strong feeling that it's just one of my classmates. They are the only ones who know my phone number except my family.

"Mam Celaine, your car is already outside." Ani ng guard na nakabantay sa labas ng walk-in closet ko.

"Just a minute." Sagot ko at inayos ang damit ko habang nakatingin sa salamin. I wore the pair that JW Anderson sent me. It's a black coat and pants. I also paired it with my Manolo Blahnik pumps.

I grabbed my Valentino cross-body bag when I finished checking myself out.

I think this will do. It's just a quick stroll.

I immediately got out of the closet and went to the main door of the house. Naroroon na nga ang kotse na gagamitin ko. Pinagbuksan naman ako ng pintuan at pumasok na ako sa loob.

I decided go outside today.

"Bihis na bihis po kayo Mam, ah? Saan po tayo ngayon?"

"Just drive to the nearest 7/11 store. I'll be quick."

Gusto ko kasi subukan ang bumili sa 7/11. It's probably everywhere, I know, but I haven't tried it yet. There's no such stores in London.

"Alam po ba 'to ni Sir Sid?" Tanong niya ulit.

"I think so... I already texted him but he hasn't replied yet. Maybe he's busy." Ani ko. Kanina pa ako nagpaalam pero 'di niya naman sinagot 'yung mga text ko sa kanya. I also didn't bother to call him. Baka ay nasa meeting na naman siya at ayaw ko naman siyang istorbohin.

At saka, silence means yes di'ba?

"Don't worry, madali lang naman ako sa labas." Dagdag ko. I know I'm not allowed to go outside but I think this time will be an exception.

Tumango naman ang driver ko at inumpisahan niya nang patakbuhin ang sasakyan palabas ng mansion. Ilang minuto rin ang lumipas bago namin masilayan ang nagtataasang mga gusali rito sa BGC. We were already at the city center.

The car stopped in front of a 7/11 located in one of the corporate towers. The doorman immediately opened the door for me and I went outside of the car. A few people were looking at me as I started to walk near the building.

Napagtanto ko na may nakabantay na naman sa akin na dalawang bodyguard. Ugh, Vladimir and his overprotectiveness.

"Please wait for me inside the car. I'm just gonna buy something. And besides, the walls are transparent, you can see me still see me even in a distance." Saad ko. Tumango naman ang dalawa at bumalik sa sasakyan.

I'm still not used in getting attention from a lot of people. I mean, I do enjoy fashion shows and private events but I'm always with my family and friends when I attend so it's less awkward.

I tried to push the door to open but it wouldn't. Sinubukan ko ulit pero ang tigas talaga.

"Alam mo, ang ganda mo sanang babae pero tinutulak mo ang pinto na dapat ay hinihila."
