"It's nice to see you here, Raze! Ano palang ginagawa mo dito?" I asked.

"It's nice to see you too, Li. Kasali ako sa photoshoot nila. My company and their company has a little collaboration." he shrugged his shoulder.

"You mean, nag-mo-model ka na rin?"

"Part time. Actually, when I'm bored only." I chukled by his remarks.

"Uuwi rin ako mamayang gabi 'cause I have a important meeting this dinner to attend. I can't miss it." I nodded at him.

"Nagawa mo pang ma-bored kahit busyng-busy ka na?" I asked amused.

"Oh well, that's the power of boredom." we both ended up laughing.

"It's been 5 years since the last time you visited La Café, would you mind to pay a visit?" na-pag-alaman kong ang La Café ay isa sa mga small business niya, actually yun daw ang unang business na nagawa niya on his young age. And yun yung paborito niyang business kasi yung perang pantayo nu'n ay galing mismo sa sariling sikap at pawis niya. I was amused by how he work hard. Kilala ko si Raze bilang isang workcoholic person. I was kinda surprised na kaya niya pang ma-bored. I mean hello? His company is almost next at ours. We're the most richest family at pang-apat siya kaya I'm pretty sure just like my dad nahihirapan siya lalo na't his the CEO!

"I'll visit... soon." I smiled and he smiled too!

Honestly, medjo miss ko na rin ang café na 'yon. Marami kayang nag-bago? I mean of course may pagbabago kasi it's been 5 years.

Natapos ang conversation namin bandang 6:00 pm dahil kailangan niya pang um-attend sa meeting niya mamayang 8:00 pm. Isa sa mga helicopter niya ang sumundo sa kaniya.

"Dude! Bagay talaga kayo ni sir Ryzen." ngumisi si Red sa'kin kaya inirapan ko siya.

"Shut up. Kumain na ba kayo?" he nodded by my question.

"Oo, kasabay niyo lang kami. Mukhang di mo kami napansin kasi yung atensyon mo na kay sir Ryzen lang. Ito lang table namin oh." he pointed their table, katabi lang ang table nila sa amin. Lumusot ang paningin ko sa likod. It was Drake and Brittany and Drake is looking at me intently. His forehead crease, mahigpit rin ang hawak niya sa utensils.

"Tara na." paanyaya ko kila Vincent.

I'm currently wearing a short red fitted dress, it exposed my cleavage. Pupunta kami ngayon sa isang bar dito.

Nang makarating kami ay medjo maraming tao but it's fine. Kasi sabi nga nila 'the more the merrier' let's just enjoy and chill the night.

Kasama ko sina Vincent and Red, of course. Pwede bang wala sila?

I ordered a Bloody Mary. I tooked a sipped of it, may ilang lalaki na rin ang naki-pag-usap sa'kin which I didn't entertain. They looked like fvck boys.

Nang mag-sawa ako sa kaka-simsim sa iniinom ko I decided to dance and join the crowd. I moved my hips from left to right. Hands up and I swayed it following the rhythm of my body. I felt someone danced behind my back.

Agad na nalanghap ko ang pamilyar na amoy. I didn't face him at wala akong plano. I didn't mind him and continue to dance. The music went wilder kaya the crowd cheered. Everybody is dancing wildly.

Naramdaman ko ang pag-pulupot ng matitipuno niyang braso sa'kin kaya di ko ma-iwasan ang mapa-singhap.

"You can't just ran like that." he whispered in my ear using his husky voice. It almost send shiver down to my spine.

"Baby.... I miss you." I felt like my knees melt. The sound of his voice makes me weak.

"Baby... stop lying hmmm." I felt his lips on my neck kaya napa-harap ako sa kan'ya at tinulak siya nang bahagya.

"Stop." I uttered facing his face. My heart immediately melt when I saw his eyes it was full of love, care, longing and sadness. Shit! Ano bang sinasabi mo Lisha?! Get your self up!

"Ziana, please stop.. tumigil kana sa pag-papanggap." I shaked my head as I place a bitter smile on my face.

"How can you be so sure that I'm that Ziana you are referring to?" I arched my brow on him.

"My heart... it only beats for one person and that is Ziana... here feel it." he gently grabbed my hand and put it on his chest where his heart is located. I can feel his heart beating so loudly and fast.

"My heart beats so fast when it found it's owner. You left... me, and you bring my heart... with you. Baby, how can you be so... unfair." he gently touched my face and I can't help but to closed my eyes.

"Ziana, baby... please don't lie." I opened my eyes, at nakita ko ang pag-patak ng mga luha galing sa kaniyang mga mata.

"Don't you lie also, Drake." I shift my emotion to cold one.

"What do you mean? Baby I really—" I cutted him off.

"Stop acting!" I marched towards the exit at sumunod siya sa'kin. Nag-patuloy lang ako hanggang sa makarating ako sa isang mabatong parte ng isla. May isang maliit na cliff doon kaya na-isipan kong pumunta doon. I can still feel that Drake's following me. At ramdam ko rin na naka-sunod sila Vincent sa'kin kaya I motioned them to stop and I think they did.

Babantayan pa rin nila ako but sa malayo. Far enough not to hear our conversation. Kung gusto niyang mag-usap kami then fine! He want to hear how I loat him? Then fine! He want to hear my rants? Then fine! He wants to know the truth? Then I will tell him.

Let's see kung ma-atim niya bang kainin lahat. Kainin lahat ng masasakit na salita galing sa'kin. He killed— they killed my mother! Galit na galit ako sa kanila. It was supposed to be na mabubuo na ulit kami but they messed it up! Mararanasan ko na sana ulit ang pakiramdam nang may buong pamilya but he— they stole the chance para maging masaya kami. The chance that we will have a complete family. All my life yun lang ang hinihiling ko, na sana mag-karoon ako ng isang kompletong pamilya. But nasira ang lahat ng 'yon dahil pinatay nila si mama! Si mama na walang ibang ginawa kun'di ang mahalin at alagaan ako.
