"Hello guys... What have I missed?" "Oh, my God! Tres!" excited na sabi ng mutual friend nilang si Miranda. Tres? The great Alfonso Esquivel The Third? Five years ago, during college, Tres was her boyfriend and she was Tres's sweetheart and they were happily in love with each other. But they broke up--no--she broke up with Tres days after their graduation when she saw him kissing other girl. After that, she never saw Tres again. Until now. At Lucas and Stasha, their mutual friends' wedding day. "Sobrang na-miss kita," sabi ni Miranda na halatang excited. Jorjina heard Tres chuckle. The same sexy drawl. Playful, naughty chuckle. Pinakalma ni Jorjina ang nagririgodon niyang puso bago humarap. And when she did, she met the pair of beautiful brown eyes belonging to the gorgeous Tres Esquivel. Tres was in his gray tuxedo. He was a a little more muscled than he was five years ago. He was sporting a long and messy hair that touched his suit's collar. And a thin eight o' clock shadow beard along his jawline that added character to him. Dangerously and devastatingly handsome. Still. And always. Jorjina met his gaze. Nasa harapan niya ang multo ng kanyang kahapon. All their memories flooded her mind. Bittersweet memories. Their gazes held for a few seconds. And then finally, the right corner of Tres's lips twitched upwad, forming a half-smile. Handsome half-smile that did not reach his bown eyes. "Hello, Jorjina. It's been a while." Sinalubong niya ang tingin ni Tres. "Hello, Tres," matipid na sabi ni Jorjina kasabay ang isang matipid na ngiti. Even if her heart was beating fast. Even if deep inside her heart, she missed him--so much. His beautiful brown eyes. His sexy drawl. His playful chuckle. His flirty smile. And the painful truth that after five, long and unhappy years, she was still hopelessly in love with Tres Esquivel-beyond words and endlessly.

"I have to warn you, Jorjina. Do not let yourself fall in love with me," seryosong sabi ni Tres habang diretsong nakatingin sa mga mata ni Jorjina. "I might break your heart. And I don't want that to happen." That was point-blank. Napalunok si Jorjina. Hindi niya alam kung bakit tila may kurot sa puso ang sinabi ng binata. She dismissed that thought in her mind. Tinaasan ni Jorjina ng isang kilay si Tres. "Ang feelingero mo naman, Tres Esquivel," mataray na sabi ng dalaga. "Hindi ako mai-in love sa 'yo dahil isa kang walking heartbreak. Isa kang malaking karengkeng at nagsusumigaw na heartbreak!" Pinakadiin-diin pa ni Jorjina ang mga huling salitang sinabi. "At hindi ako masokista para saktan ang sarili ko at kumuha ng batong ipupukpok sa ulo ko. Kaya 'yang warning mo na mai-in love ako sa 'yo ay malabong mangyari. Hindi. Mangyayari. 'Yan," mataray at confident niyang sabi habang kumukumpas-kumpas pa ang kamay niya. Ilang segundong nakatingin lang sa kanya si Tres. Him scanning and studying her face as if searching for the truth with what she said. "Good," Tres then finally said, not even smiling as if he felt disappointed with her answer. "At least we're crystal clear on that." Crytal clear on that. Klarung-klaro kay Jorjina. But why on earth did Jorjina Pascua aka Jorj, non-academic scholar -read : average girl-a plain jane and campus Artists' Club member eat her words and fell in love with Alfonso Esquivel III aka Tres Esquivel, breathtakingly handsome, ultra rich and campus' ultimate playboy? At ang masaklap pa, naibigay pa niya ang sarili niya sa binata. A BIG thank you to @yhang__yhang (yhangunnie) for my nice book cover. Please follow her ❤
