"Mitch, who is she?" Shainna asked her cousin when she saw that he was with a pretty girl.

Mitch smiled and said, "Uh Shay, this is May Daplas. She's my girlfriend." Shainna was surprised because she thought that her cousin had already forgotten about dating because of her.

"Oh hi, May. I'm Gayle, Shainna Gayle De Castro," she introduced herself.

"Nice to meet you, Gayle," May said and extended her hand to Shainna which the latter accepted and they shook hands.

"I'm so happy that my cousin finally found someone. I was worrying that he might end up being single forever," Shainna said which made them all laugh.

Mitch brought May into the living room and Shainna followed behind them. He was happy that the two girls seems to be getting along well. He had been telling May about Shainna already. So, the girl knows what's happening. If she's really nice then, she'd understand what Shainna is going through, or at least she'll be good.

"How long have you two been dating?" Shainna asked the couple.

"It's already been three weeks. I was already courting her before you came," Mitch replied.

"Woah, that's great. You should have introduced us to each other sooner," Shainna said.

May chuckled before replying, "Well, your cousin seemed to be busy all the time. I don't know what was up with him." She was looking at Shainna, actually.

And Shainna kind of felt guilty because she thinks she's the one who kept her cousin busy. She had been asking Mitch to do things for her for the past few weeks and maybe she became the reason why they can't be with each other longer. She thinks that she has really become a nuisance to her cousin.

"Well, uhh, I'm sorry about that. I think it's my fault," she said in a low voice. She's starting to be ashamed because first of all, Mitch isn't even her brother, he's just her cousin and they didn't see each other for a long time before she came and ask for his help to hide her.

She didn't even know that he was already dating someone. If she knows, maybe May also became jealous of her at some point.

"No Shay, it's not your fault. I probably just don't know how to manage my time. Anyway, it's fine, right babe?" He said looking at May meaningfully.

"Ah yes, your cousin is just bad at time management. By the way, I heard you're already leaving after a month." May said, opening a new topic.

"Yes, I didn't plan on staying here for long time anyway. Going to Paris has been on already even before bad things happened. It's just that some things had been stopping me."

Going to Paris had been Shainna's dream in the first place. Actually, she was supposed to go there ten months ago but her parents found out about her plans. So, she changed her destination and went to Palawan for a while.

There, she met her Jhane.

When she met Jhane, she was dumbstruck. The woman is just so charismatic, so who wouldn't be? She was tall and her hair was dyed blonde then. She had those mesmerizing doe eyes and thick but organized brows. In other words she was hot.

She seemed to be lost though. Obviously, it was her first time in Palawan.

Shainna, on the other hand, had been there at least three times without anyone knowing. She always stays in a hidden house which she considers as her secret sanctuary. So, she knew a few things about Palawan, Puerto Princesa to be exact, and at least she won't be lost.

What she wasn't expecting was that the woman she was checking out would approach her. Jhane asked her where it would be nice to stay.

And her dumbass mouth told the woman to just go with her, saying she had a good place to stay and that it would be for free.
