"NADINE!" Kath yelled.

"Shhh, natutulog yun tao."

"James is here, papasukin ko siya." Sabi ni Kath.

"Hoy, Kath!-" I screamed

"Ahaha, gotcha! Nagising agad oh' Atat?" Kath teased

"Ikaw talaga! Ano ba kasi yun?" Tanong ko.

"Di mo ba naalala na we'd tour around New York, today?"

"I've been to a lot of places already, could we do it next time, Kath?" I said

"Besides, Metropolitan Museum at Madison Square Garden pa lang ang di ko pa napupuntahan." I added

"Hep! Sasama si Dj at James! Ano say mo?" Tanong ni Kath.

Tingin talaga ni Kath na sobrang interesado ako kay James.

"Oo na, ito na. Maliligo na." Sabi ko.

and after that, we were supposed to meet in the museum.

"Dj! James!" Kath called

Papunta sila dito... How could James look good in just a t-shirt, coat, pants? Seriously.

"Hi!! Nadine, himala at sumama ka."

"Ah kasi-" Before Kath would say anything that'll make me embarass, tinamaan ko elbow niya.

"She wanted to see art din daw." Sabi ni Kath na tumatawa.

"Hi Naddie." Sabi ni James na may pa-cute na tono.

"You made me a nickname? Seriously, James?" Sabi ko na tumatawa.

"I just figured when I posted our photos last night!" He said

What photos?!

"Naddie sounds cute naman, diba?" He asks

"Oo naman. Sige na, Thanks for the nickname, Hayme!" Sabi ko.

"Hayme meaning?" He asks

"James in tagalog!" Sabi ko

"Oh, okay, okay. I get it." He says

"We got the tickets!! Tara!"

I was a type who were never fond of museum and art pieces, but damn, Metropolitan Museum has the nicest artworks ever.

I was staring at the Guo Pei, Magnificent Gold Dress and I was really stunned.

"aaah, so pretty!" I said

"Prettier." James murmured

"Who is?" I asked

"You." He simply answered

"Bolero." I said

"What?! There's no difference between you and the artwork." James said laughing.

"Yes it is! It's a dress and I'm human!" I said

"No, it's not that. What, I meant was, Both of you are artworks." He explained

"Hoy, James! Tama na. Masyado ka ng bolero! Humanda ka talaga saakin." I warned

"You're a work of art. You're a masterpiece." He said

I gave him a squint in the eyes and was giving him the "I'm not convinced in what you're saying look."

"I'm not joking!" He said with a smile.

Damn, James Reid don't smile like that.

"Why are you looking at me like that." He asked
