Her friend Veronica is in panic now, knowing the painting is very special to Althea.



"Please Miss, kindly understand.........as I have told you before these Arts that were remain in this Gallery are just for display these are not intended for selling."

Explained the Gallery Manager

"Why wouldn't you sell this art in the first place?!" Questioned the demanding customer, who is so irritated right now for not having what she wants.

"Because it's not for sale Ms., period end of story!" Butted Althea, she still wearing her helmet, because of the imperative of the situation she has to rush inside the gallery.

The woman, her friend and the men who's trying to take down the paintings look at her direction.

Removing her helmet still grasping some air.

The woman who's trying to buy the art, gasp looking at the young artist who just came.

Walking to the direction of the young artist smiling, the woman was mesmerized by the beauty in front of her.



"Hi there gorgeous, I'm Elizabeth Villanueva at your service and you are?" Extending her hand, with a seductive grin.

"Hello Ms. Elizabeth." Respond Althea, accepting the hand from the woman.

She doesn't want to be rude even though this Elizabeth.......woman almost cause her a panic attack this morning.

The young artist is about to remove her hand from the woman's hold, however instead of loosen the hold she grip it tightly not letting it go.



"I like you a lot." Elazabeth admitted, if she wants something definitely she will have it......whatever the cost.

"I'm sorry?" Althea is surprise for being so blunt of this woman's feeling.

They just acquainted now.

"I......said........I L. I. K. E...... you...a LOT." Leaning so ever closely to her ear, whisper the word she said while rubbing her arms so slowly.

Althea feels the cat hair on her nape stands.....she couldn't believe how this woman so aggressive and candid towards her.

She don't want to be offensive, but how will she turn down this woman without hurting her feelings, but she had no choice, she doesn't want this woman to lead her in the wrong way.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you Ms. Elizabeth but I don't feel the same way....even so I'm flattered....thank you." Althea said truthfully, she back up a little and remove her hand from the hold of the woman gently.....and smile at her.

"How polite of you and considerate but sorry I can't accept it.....what I want, I always have it.....and you my dear will be mine! Boys let's go! We will just leave for now!" The woman shouted.....no body....no one can say no to her....all the men and even women pursue her.

Never ever she experience the feeling of rejection before, not even once.........until now, this woman will be hers.....she will have her.



"Althea my dear I will go for now but when I come back remember this YOU WILL BE MINE.....MINE!" With that being said to the young artist, she went nearer to her and kiss her passionately.

While the woman was kissing her, Althea just stand there shock and speechless for the turn of event.



"Can't got your tongue? I'll see you soon darling." Then the woman leave, leaving Althea immobilized.
