To: Fake Jowa

Oo na. Pero salamat ha? Salamat sa lahat, especially for this day. Napagaan mo ang pakiramdam ko. Hehe. Good night din, Brutik! :P

From: Fake Jowa

What's Brutik? :/

To: Fake Jowa

Sekretong malupet, pwede pabulong? :P

From: Fake Jowa

Huh?

Hindi ko na nireplyan para maasar. Bawi ko nalang din 'to sa mga pangtri-trip niya sa akin, lalong-lalo na sa mall kanina. Bwahahahaha!

From: Tommy Mylabs

Sige, mgpapakita ako bukas. May pag-uusapan tayo. Night

Pagkabasa ko ng text ay biglang sumanib ang kaba sa akin. Ano bang kailangan namin pag-usapan? Mukhang hindi ako makakatulog ng maayos nito.

GENERAL POV

One week na mula ng huling pagkikita ang pekeng magjowa dahil sa pagkabusy ni Karylle sa work nito na may hinahabol pa na deadline habang ang bakla naman ay nanatili lang sa ospital at pilit iwinawaksi ang lungkot sa dibdib mula ng magkita sila ni Tom, ang long time boyfriend niya.

Later that day, nagambala naman ang tulog ni Karylle sa kanyang office desk nang may matinis na tinig na sumigaw ng kakapasok lang na bisita sa opisina niya.

"Atih Gurl, she's back!" Isa pang tili ang sumunod ngunit galing 'to sa sekretaryang si Alex. Kaya napilitan na si Karylle na i-buka ang kanyang mga mata.

"Kulotskieee!!! I miss youuu!" The woman in front of her office desk squealed which she immediately responded with a wide smile on her lips.

"Anning! Oh my god!!" She also squealed, agad naman siyang tumayo papunta sa matalik na kaibigan at niyakap ito ng mahigpit. "Kailan ka lang dumating?" She asked while they're still sharing the tight hug. #anneryllebesh

"Earlier around 10 am ata? Sorry, if I didn't tell you... it was supposed to be a surprise!" She answered after a giggle.

"Well, congrats. I am really surprised!" Karylle kissed her on the cheek before breaking the hug. "How are you, Annie?"

"I'm fine, great even. How about you, my dear Kulot?" She asked as she runs her delicate fingers on Karylle's hair curls.

"Kinda stressed but I can still manage pa naman." They both chuckled.

"Good to hear. Uhmm... by the way, where's your boyfriend?" Napa-lipbite naman si Karylle sa tanong ni Anne. "One of my reasons pa naman kung bakit ako umuwi dito is because nakakalap ako ng news about you having a boyfriend already. You didn't bother to tell me talaga ha." Patampong sambit nito.

"Sorry naman. I have plans to tell you talaga Anne but I was quite busy and I know busy ka rin with your designing career sa NY kaya ayun. Hehe. But now you're here, I will surely let you see him and ako pa mismo mag-introduce sayo." She explained then gave her bestfriend a thin smile while wiggling her eyebrows.

"Sure, you will." Bigla namang naging creepy ang smile ni Anne. "Before this day ends dapat makilala ko siya because he will come with us sa Bohol." She winked, bago pa man makapagreact si Karylle ay agad na siyang hinila nito palabas.
