Helveryst Series #2 : The Cassanova and The Hater

Chapter 42 - Long Distance Relationship

[Just kidding, mine. Of course, you have to come back here. Ako ang bahay mo kaya babalik ka sa'kin]

I smirked when I think of an idea."Nah. Mas gusto ko pang magstay dito ng matagal. You know, a lot of guys here approached me earlier."

Gusto kong humalakhak sa naging pagbabago ng reaksyon niya. He's goddamn mad! Seloso kase talaga siya, sobra! Ni pagtingin nga ng mga lalaki ayaw niyang gawin ko kahit hindi ko naman talaga ginagawa. Now it's time for a revenge.

[Subukan mo lang, Xyriel! Kapag ako nagpunta d'yan, iuuwi kita kaagad]

I'm starting to love him calling me like that. His nickname for me was changed into Xyriel, my second name. Tinatawag niya ako nang ganyan kapag naiinis siya o galit. Kapag ako naman, Axcel ang tawag ko sa kanya kaso naiirita siya ro'n. Ang baduy daw kase.

"If you'll tease me again, I'm not going home. Alam mo namang kaya ko 'yong gawin."

Nagpaawa siya hanggang sa napilitan akong sabihing uuwi ako sa Friday, four days from now. Ilang araw pa rin kaming hindi magkikita dahil sa mga sunod sunod na shoots ko. Last na schedules kase ngayon na week kase next week magpapahinga na ako para sa pagbubukas ng school year. So I'll take it all and rest after.

In the morning, we went to the City of Marseille to visit Basilique Notre-Dame de la Garde. Its a popular Catholic church so we roamed around to see the beautiful scenery. I took some pictures with myself and of course with our clients. May iilan ding tourists na kilala ako kaya natagalan ako sa pakikipag-picture sa kanila. Caroline didn't complained too. Gusto naman talaga niya na nag-eentertain ako ng iba para daw mas marami akong tagahanga. Whatever.

After that, we went directly to the Canebière where I'm going to continue my photoshoots. Its a busy main street since the 17th century but we occupied some space inside for our photoshoot. Maraming tao ro'n dahil hindi naman maipagkakaila ang kagandahan lugar. I'm also happy to be here because it has been a long time since my last break. Sa England kami napunta no'n.

"Qu'est-ce que vous voulez manger, senora?" Our tour guide asked me.

May translator kaming dala ni Caroline kaya siya ang kumausap sa guide namin. She even told me that I should learn how to speak French so I could talk to the the next time. Argh. That's hassle.

Our translator looked at me."He's asking what do you want to eat. Just point in the menu and they'll be the one to prepare it for you."

Hinayaan naman ako ni Carol kung anong gusto kong kainin. There were different kinds of dishes but I chose the American one. Palagi nila akong binibigyan ng pagkain habang nagto-tour kami kaya hindi ako masyadong gutom. Baka pagbalik ko sa Pilipinas ang taba ko na.

Lahat ng gusto ko, ino-offer nila sa'kin ng libre. At first, I thought that it was unfair since their foods and other stuffs here were expensive. 'Yon pala, may trade na ganapan bago pa lang kami lumipad dito. Our head gave them all of my service in exchange of our free tour in France. Lahat dito libre para sa'min kaya hindi na nila kami babayaran para sa mga photoshoots ko rito.

They will release my new album here namely 'La tournée de Zeriel en France' that was meant 'Zeriel's tour in France'. Pero syempre, bibigyan nila kami ng copy, only one box. Kapag may gusto ring kumuha ng copy sa kanila, ibebenta rin nila sa mas mataas na presyo. My album will be in limited edition. Baka nga pag-uwi namin pag-agawan ang isang box at magpa-bid pa ang entertainment namin 'pag nagkataon.

Ang huling spot na pupuntahan namin ay sa Mont Puget. It was one of the most visited mountains in Marseille because the mountains were built with limestones. Nag-uusap nga ang guide and 'yong translator namin habang nasa private van kami, even the driver. Shocks! I couldn't understand them all.
