"Engineer Montage, you're late" agad na bungad sa akin ng Chief.

"I'm sorry" nakayukong sabi ko naman. Narinig ko siyang nagbunting hininga, he seems so disappointed.

"Don't let this happen again, hundreds of life is in our hands so please be more responsible" sabi niya at agad na umalis.

I was late because last night I waited for Wave to come to my space, hoping that he'll explain himself kasi I know Wave, he's kind and caring. Kahit makakasakit sa akin I know he'll explain himself, but I was wrong. He didn't come at all, I stayed up late but no Wave showed up.

I am hurt, but I'm trying to be fine. Nothing will change kung mamukmok ako, he's still marrying that Arienne.

"Engr. Montage, airblow daw" sabi sa akin nang isa kong kasamahan dahilan para mabalik ako sa sarili ko. Tumango nalang ako at agad na ginawa ang trabaho ko.

"Miss Arienne oh,"
"Siya ang tunay na panalo"
"She's Captain's fiancé di'ba?"

Agad akong napalingon nang marinig ang mga bulong bulungan nila. And they are right, Arienne is here. Wave's fiancé, sanaol. Arienne is standing near the entrance kasama niya si Chief. She's glaring at me, arms-crossed. I looked away and continue what I'm doing.

"This is Miss Arienne Aldez," pagpapakilala ni Chief sa kanya.

"It's Arienne Aldez-ECTHELION" sabi niya pa habang ine-emphasize ang ECTHELION. She's claiming it already.

"This is the engine room," pagtutour ni Chief sa kanya. I don't bother to look at her, I just continue doing my job.

"By the way, Maam" sabi ni Chief at tumigil sa gilid ko. "She's one of our best engineers here, Engineer Cashcade Montage" pagpapakilala niya sa akin.

She smirked. I think she knows me. "Best engineer huh?" sarcastic na tanong niya at tinignan ako from head to toe. "Cash" sabi niya pa at ngumisi. "It's a pleasure to meet finally meet you," sarcastic pa na sabi niya.

I forced to smile and nod.

"I am Arienne Ecthelion, you can call me Yen" sabi niya pa na tila nang aasar. Iumpog ko kay ulo neto sa cylinders? "Oh," sabi niya habang nakatingin sa entrance. My heart skipped a beat, it's Wave.

He looks shock to see me and Arienne here. Agad na tumakbo si Arienne palapit kay Wave at agad na kumapit sa braso nito. Hinatak niya pa palapit sa amin ni Chief si Wave. He can't look at me, I wonder why.

Parang sinasaksak ang puso ko habang tinitignan silang dalawa, but I tried so hard na ipakita na okay lang ako. Magaling ako magpanggap na okay lang ako pero bakit pagdating kay Wave parang nanghihina ako. My tears wanted to escape but I'm forcing myself not to do it.

"By the way," sabi ni Arienne. "This is my fiancé, Wave" sabi niya na ikinagulat ko. She's calling him, Wave too. Napayuko nalang tuloy ako.

"Babe, this is Engineer Cashcade" maarteng pagpapakilala niya sa akin. "She's one of the best engineers here daw," sarcastic pa na sabi nito. "Sa sobrang galing niya, she's flirting with the higher crew member para lang maging mataas ang position niya"
