Ash's POV
It's been three weeks since Rio asked me who is Dawn and after that, he just became cold. Well, not that much. There are times na para bang anino lang ako. Meron rin naman yung ngingitian lang nya ako. And I promise, minsan ay nakakapagtampo but I guess it's fine. At least, he don't want to talk about Dawn anymore.
Anyway, me and Gray are here at the mall to buy some dresses, heels, jewelries and many more. Specifically, here at a boutique. Why? Let's just say, dad gave her a reward for being a responsible lady. It's an achievement actually. Drey is more responsible than her kasi.
"Ate, look at this dress." Sabi nya at pinakita sakin ang isang orange fitted dress. "I guess I should try it on. It looks pretty and mukha namang bagay sakin, right?"
I smiled then nodded. "Everything looks good on you." Sabi ko.
"Really?" Tanong nya at agad na pumasok sa isang fitting room.
I just shook my head then walked near the fitting room she entered.
Dalaga na sya.
I explored the place by my eyes and stopped when I saw a figure of a guy behind the glass walls of the boutique. Nakatalikod sa direksyon ko yung lalaki. He's wearing a navy blue t-shirt and shorts. I don't know why but I stared at him.
Maglalakad na sana ako palabas ng boutique para makita kung SIYA nga yun but... "Ate, look!" Sigaw ni Gray na ngayon ay nakalabas na sa fitting room. "Is it good?"
I looked at her from feet to head them smiled. "Perfect." Sagot ko lang na nakapagpaguhit naman ng ngiti sa labi nya.
"I'll buy it." Sabi nya at bumalik na sa fitting room para magbihis.
Napatingin ulit ako sa tinitignan ko kanina pero... Wala na.
Siguro... Imagination ko lang yun. Tama! I mean, is it possible na sya nga talaga yun?
After a while, lumabas na si Gray, bitbit ang nais nyang bilhin. "Yan lang bibilhin mo?" Tanong ko.
Tumango naman sya.
Buti nalang hindi pala-gastos tong kapatid ko.
Pumunta na kami sa cashier. "Wait. Don't you want to buy something for yourself, ate? It's my treat for today." Sabi nya sakin.
I shook my head. "Seeing you happy is enough." Sagot ko lang.
She smiled.

Pagkatapos kong samahan si Gray na mag-shopping, hinatid ko na sya sa mansyon. After that, I went to the cafe.
"Good morning, ma'am." Bati sakin ni Gina. "Ma'am, dumating na po yung stocks natin ng green tea, flour and coffee." Report nya sakin.
"Good. How's are cupcakes?" Tanong ko.
"Ma'am, nagkaroon po tayo ng konting problem sa isang stove natin but Wally already took charge of it. Tapos kahapon... Nasunog yung isang tray ng cupcakes." Sagot nya.
Kumunot ang noo ko. "Hayy. Be careful next time." Sabi ko nalang at dumiretso sa office ko.
Again, I drowned myself in the sea pf papers.
I heard my phone beeps. I took it and read the message.
From: Dad
Anak, me and your mom planned to go home tomorrow. Be ready, okay?
