Paguwi ni Ara sa bahay napagdesisyunan nitong pagisipan na kung anong gagawin niya para sa monthsary nila at kaarawan ni Chase.

Chase's efforts should be reciprocated, so she thinks hard.

"Ano nga ba ang pwede kong gawin?," she asks herself as she lies in bed looking at the ceiling.

Then she looks at her bedside table and sees a Polaroid picture of Chase.

That's it!

Why not create his own gallery?

Gallery of their Polaroid pictures together.

Agad agad niyang dinial sa telepono si Devon.

"Oh, Ara?"

"Dev, I need your help,"

"Para saan?,"

"Para sa monthsary namin ni Chase at birthday niya,"

"Sabay?"

"Isang araw ang pagitan eh, kaya mas special,"

"Oh, sige, what kind of help do you need?"

"Can you like reserve me a little place? Balak ko kasi siyang gawan ng gallery, full of our pictures,"

"Alright, kailan?"

"Next week,"

"Ok I'll text you when I got it already,"

"Salamat devs!"

"Anytime,"

At binaba na ni Ara ang tawag.

Sana maappreciate mo ito, bago ko sabihin sayo ang totoo.

——

Kahit pauwi na si Chase, his body felt numb.

All his thoughts were gone.

Gusto niyang puntahan si Hart at bugbugin ito.

But he can't. Kahit anong pilit niya, he can't feel the strong urge that he can use as an excuse.

Bakit?

What happened to him? Why can't he be the tough and cold guy he was before? Of course, because of Ara.

He saw her smile. The genuine one you can easily know.

"Sana kung masaya ka na sa iba, sabihin mo," Chase murmurs to himself while driving.

He doesn't want to interact with anyone kaya pumunta siya sakanyang bahay.

Why hurt me like this? Di mo ba pwede sabihin sakin ang totoo?

Kung wala ka ng gana, sana sinabi mo.

I'd rather be hurt like that instead of this way.

Where I know you should be mine but it looks like you're happy with someone else when that should be me.

Please Ara, sana isang malaking misunderstanding lang ito.

Because believe me, I want to.

"Ma'am Gina, andito po si Sir Raf," sabi ng kanyang sekretarya pagpasok sakanyang opisina.

"Papasukin mo siya," sagot nito.

Pumasok na ang kanyang Private investigator.

"Nahanap ko na siya Ma'am, pero paconfirm nalang," anito tsaka may binaba na mga papeles.
