"I will be happy." matapang kong sagot.
"Even if he marry the woman she's with?" he asked, contemplating.
Napakagat labi ako at bumuntong hininga. "I will... be happy..." susubukan ko...
"Uh...huh? Let us see then." sagot niya at tinaasan ako ng kilay.
Kumunot ang noo ko. "What are you thinking?"
He smirked as he leaned down and just like that, I felt his lips gave me a peck.
I was too shocked I couldn't move. My eyes widen and I was slightly captivated by his sly smile that my heart started to pump so loud.
"Wha-What did you just..."
He patted my head. "I have waited for this to happen. I don't want to take advantage of your vulnerability, so don't worry. As much as possible, if I could, I would push you to your happiness." he said giving me an assuring smile yet I could see sadness on it.
Hinila niya ako papunta sa kung saan. Rinig ko parin ang pagbilis ng tibok ng puso ko ngunit iba ito. Hindi familiar sakin.
I felt like something has given to me but I'm not sure if I could accept it or not.
After watching the products and devices of the others we proceeded to the a function hall where I think the bidding would happen.
I tried not to find Castielle pero kahit saang sulok ako tumingin, siya talaga ang hinahanap ko. And there I saw him with some familiar people.
The guy with him, was Jeiko Valerio with Shian Aldeguer—his cousin. Magkausap si Loraine at si Shian habang si Castielle naman ay kinakausap ni Jeiko while his eyes are now directed to me.
Jackson and I were ushered to our table where were facing the table which the usher led Castielle and the others.
"Jackson Kang, and you are?" pagpapakilala ni Jackson sa isang lalake na minsan ko nang nakitang kasama ni Castielle noon.
"Kalem Montesor..." nakangiti nitong sagot at nakipakamayan kay Jackson.
Kasama namin si Kalem Montesor sa lamesa kasama niya ang isang morena ngunit magandang babae. She looked at me curiously while looking at the back.
"Oh, are you the CEO of Montesor Pharmaceutics?" Jackson asked.
He shook his head. "No, just the COO, the CEO which my uncle couldn't come."
"Oh. By the way, this is Narian Esquilon. My lovely date." pagpapakilala ni Jackson sakin.
Ngumiti ako at nakipagkamayan sa kaniya. Kalem looked at me like he knew me and I know he did. He's a photography instructor in Thaguro and friends with Castielle.
"Nice to meet you. This is my fianceè, Ponsithia Dedomingo." Anito at inakbayan ang dalaga.
Ngumiti naman ito ng pilit at nakipagkamayan samin.
"I think you're familiar..." ani Kalem at sinuri akong mabuti.
"She's Castielle's ex-girlfriend. Right, miss?" tanong nitong Ponsithia.
Natigilan ako sa tanong niya at napakurap. Hindi nako magugulat kung alam niya. Kumalat naman talagang girlfriend ako.
"Do you know his ex?" tanong ni Jackson sa kanila.
Tumango si Kalem, "He's my friend and he's over there. But no worries, my friend is about to get engage soon." aniya at kaagad tumingin na parang naghahanap ng reaksyon.
Ngumiti ako ng malapad ngunit sa kaloob-looban ko, naninikip na ang dibdib ko.
Engage, huh? Kay Loraine? I don't know what to say...
