City of Paris, France

As we continue waited for Marguerite's parents to arrived, Ulysses just decided to sit on the bench waiting. I observed him from time to time and I guess he's feeling better now.

I just played in the sand box with Marguerite since I can't really speak with her. Ang hirap naman pala ng ganito. But still she's comfortable with me. Ngumingiti na rin siya at hindi na masyadong nagmamadali na hintayin ang sundo niya. Nakakapagtaka naman bakit kaya siya nag iisa dito sa city ng mag isa? Nawala kaya siya habang naglilibot nila ng family niya or is it because of something else?

Abala lang kami ni Marguerite na bumubuo ng sand castles nang may marinig akong boses ng babae na nagsalita not too far away from us. Nilingon ko ang pinanggalingan ng boses nang narinig kong lumapit at kinausap niya si Ulysses.

"Hey there handsome, are you alone?" sa tono palang ng boses niya alam ko nang isa siya sa mga typical girls na type si Sese. She's a slender girl with a wavy and silky long hair wearing a red body hugging dress and black heels. Seductive is the right word to describe her.

I didn't want to look at Ulysses' face dahil alam ko naman na ang kahihinatnan nito. He will not say no to her. Besides magmula kaninang umaga naiinip na siya, he might as well grab this opportunity. No more like he'll grab her. Tss.

As much as possible I tried to cover them para hindi sila makita ni Marguerite. Kung dito nila balak gumawa ng session wag naman sa harap ng bata. Yeah sa harap ng bata. Hindi sa harap ko. Wait bakit ko naman inisip yun?

Am I jealous? No way.

We continued playing in the sand and I tried my best not to pay attention to Ulysses and the girl. I can somehow hear their conversation from here but I really tried to close my mind into it. Nakakainis.

"So...are you busy tonight?" asked the girl while playing with Ulysses's buttons on his shirt while looking at him like a prey.

Ulysses smirked seductively at her and said. "Unfortunately yes" he said while locking her with his eyes. I hate him!

I didn't look much after that dahil pakiramdam ko dinadaga na ang dibdib ko. Why am I nervous?

Nagfocus nalang ako sa pakikipaglaro kay Marguerite. Halos matibag ko na nga ang sandcastle namin sa lakas ng pagkakabagsak ko sa mga bucket na ginagamit namin.

"Venice you're just here!" dinig kong sambit ng isang lalake mula sa di kalayuan. He looks a bit tired. Hinahanap siguro niya ang babaeng kasama ngayon ni Ulysses, napansin ko kasing sakanya siya nakatingin.

"Oh why are you looking for me Vaughn?" this Venice asked as she turned a bit from Ulysses and looked at this guy. Lumakad na ito palapit sakanila.

"Aren't you suppose to go to the fashion show?" he asked her.

She replied lazily while waving the back of her hand to him. "Later bro, I'm just busy" she again glanced at Ulysses beside her. Hindi ko napansin na magkadikit na pala sila ng katawan. Ugh.

"Besides it's still early. Why don't we just stay here for awhile?"

So magkapatid pala ang dalawang to. No wonder they somehow looked alike. But the guy is much more decent looking than this lady. He has a typical boy next door aura in him.
