A/N: OMG, I'm so proud of my self. Diba goal ko na before mag June 13, aabot ako ng chapter 30? Yaay! At ngayon sumobra pa ako! So happy talaga. Haha!

P.S.: Tristan-Christine-April muna ang chapter na'to. Oki oki?

------------------------------------------------

-CHRISTINE'S POV-

Hello everyone! Is this my first POV? Oh yeah. I think it is. Sorry, medyo makalimutin kasi ako eh. So anyways, I'm so so happy na tanggap ako ng buong barkada ni Jessie...or Jeth. Tapos sa first time kong makasama sila, may wedding na kaagad? Sayang naman, hindi ako makadalo kasi back-to-school na ako yan.

So I'm going to tell something or things about myself. Alam niyo naman ang pangalan ko diba? First-cousins kami ni Jessie at super-duper close kami. Though, we're super close, I'm 4 years younger than her. I was born in California but my family moved to New York when I was 3. I'm not an only child, I have an older brother who's almost has the same age as Jessie. Me and Jessie met when she vacationed in New York when she was 9 and I was 5. Since then, we loved each other and the REST IS HISTORY! My first vacation here was 3 years ago and that was the time I met Troy.

I wanted to visit Philippines so bad that I stayed with Jessie's parents in Canada para sabay kaming umuwi. Ehh uhh, these are all what you need to know. You asking about me and Tristan? Heehee! I'll tell y'all at the right time.

Now let's head back to reality shall we?

I'm here in my room of Jessie's apartment. Dito nalang kami mags-stay para hindi mahirapan si Jessie's pagschool. Every  Fridays lang kami umuuwi sa bahay talaga nina Jessie and her family tapos balik naman dito pag Saturday. Mabuti nga't may car si Jessie dahil kung wala, matagal na akong na-suffocate pag nag commute kami. Eh pa'no kasi, minsan lang nagta-taxi si Jessie tapos  nagba-bus siya everytime. Tapos minsan hindi airconditioned. I have bad allergies naman sa kainit ng panahon. How did I know about her ways of commute? The last time I was here.

Kumakain ako ng Cadbury chocolate while nanonood ng Confessions of A Shopaholic sa laptop ko. Actually nga, nakakalungkot kasi ako lang mag-isa dito sa apartment ngayon. Friendly naman ako pero hindi ko pa kaya kilala ang mga neighbors ni Jessie.

*DING.DONG*

Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. I'm so scared. Hindi ako sanay ng mga tao dito sa Pilipinas. I've heard about those crimes. Yung mga modus ng mga killers? Oh my gosh. Io-open ko ba or hindi? Gusto kong sumilip pero nasa room ni Jessie ang balcony eh. Feel ko ini-lock niya ang room niya.

*DING.DONG*

Waaaah! Pa'no ba'to? Hindi ko naman ma-text si Jessie kasi hindi ko dinala ang phone ko. Wala kasi akong roaming na sim ehh.

*DING.DONG*

S-sige na nga. Bababa na nga.

Habang pababa ako ng stairs, may nakita akong payong na nakasandal sa wall. Kinuha ko para in case...heehee!

For Pete's sake naman Christine! Nakuha mo pang tumawa eh kabado ka na nga eh!

Eto na. Nasa labas na ako ng bahay at bubuksan ko na ang gate.

*OPENS GATE*

Pumikit ako at...

"Hiya!" 

Ipinalo ko sa manly figure ang payong. Pero hindi naman malakas.

"Araay! Christine naman oh!"

"Tristan?"

"Ba't mo ko pinalo? Para san yun?"
