Define handsome.

 - pleasing in appearance especially by reason of conformity to ideals of form and proportion; 

- good-looking, especially in having regular, pleasing, and well-defined features;

- pleasing and dignified in form or appearance;

I think from the above description the man infront of me is handsome.

First, pleasing personality, My GOD, looking at his face feels like looking to an angel, God or an alien? Drop the alien. Since, I haven’t seen those two entities but the description of those two simply implied that both were unearthly looking, and who in their right mind question the pleasantness of an ethereal looking man. Goodness!

In lay man’s term

Gwapo!

Deep-seated hazel-brown eyes! Diyos ko matutunaw ako sa titig nito.

Well-carved nose. Ang ganda sarap pisilin.

At ang labi! Bakit naman ganyan kaganda ang labi na yan! Parang ang lambot tapos ang pula pa. Naglilipstick ba siya? 

As I stared down, nakita ko naman ang kanya well-proportioned na katawan.

Ang tangkad pa! I am crazy about his broad shoulders. Yun kapag niyakap ka feeling mo ma-eenvelope ka niya dahil sa broad na shoulders niya at long limbs niya. 

Although, he has his poloshirt on alam mong maganda ang katawan niya underneath kasi halata naman ito sa pagdadala niya ng damit.  

I wasn’t in shock when I saw him, I just looked at him and I allowed my vision to seat in my mind.

“Hey! How long are you going to stand there and stare at me?!” sabi niyang nakataas ang kilay.

“Ay! Sorry po Dr. Aquino,” umiwas ako ng tingin at tumungo dahil hindi ko alam baka kung anu na naman tingnan ko sa kanya. Feeling ko nahahatak niya ang mata ko sa kagwapuhan niya at kakisigan niya! 

“Alam mo ba Ms. Tan na 2 weeks ka ng absent?” sabi niyang kalmado pero ramdam ko na hindi maganda ang mood niya.

“Dr. Aquino kase, kase akala ko po…”hindi ko na napagpatuloy ang gusto kong sabihin. Sumilip ako sa kanya habang nakatungo. Nakakatakot ang titig niya kahit hindi siya galit.

“Kase, ano?!” he said calmly but slightly raising his voice.

Napalunok ako. It felt like he was my Dad scolding me for being lazy.

“Dr. Aquino wala po kasing notice sakin na may kapalit si Dr. Aquino, kaya akala ko po wala na akong work sa kanya hindi ko po alam Dr. Aquino na may anak po pala si Dr. Aquino.”Naguguluhan ako sa sinabi ko. Pareho kasi silang Dr. Aquino, sobrang  redundant na.

“Huh?!” sabi niya? I looked at him he was still waiting for a clear explanation which was not part of my talent. I am a lousy speaker, especially if nervous.

“You know what, I don’t care. I am going to fire you anyway. All I wanted is for you to help me for a month then you’re good to go. I’m going to hire someone more competent that you” nag-init naman ang tenga ko sa narinig ko dito sa lalakeng gwapo na to. Teka, kahit gwapo ka 'you have no right to speak to me like that!'
