Years has passed, and the squad I'm talking about during high school was probably working by now.Wala na rin akong masyadong balita sakanila, every weekend I watched a variety show, and si Ms. Vlogger sa mga vlogs niya, don ko nalang nalalaman kamusta siya sa buhay. 

While I work as an assistant Director of an art museum, three of my artwork are displayed here, the first one is that they discover it when I was joining a contest during college it is an abstract  I used different colors it shows the beauty of a person. It is hung on the first floor, once you enter you could see it.Then the second one is a water color, it shows the historical place of the Philippines, this one is placed on the second floor, where some clothes or paintings from our ancestors. And the things they have during the early years. Then the third one is held on the second floor hallway. Maliit lang siya unlike the other two.It's where the moon rises , and there is a small airplane, ready for take off, while a little girl is waiting,nagusuthan nig director thatis one of the reason why i worked here. 

Right now I'm on my way to  China. Dahil pinadala ako ng kumpanya to Bid the masterpiece of ancient  chinese jades.Kailangan ko daw yon makuha, so I need to wear a formal. The director  won't come with us,dahil may iba siyang agenda na puupntahan sa london.Apagkadaya kami sa china siya sa london, ang unfair!

The three of us will be flying to China, to bid the masterpiece. Me, Coleen, and Conor. Yes a twins with same interest, same job, and same company they exist. 

"Nakakaexcite mag bid!" Masayang sabi ni Coleen.

"Apagkaduga talaga, si Director Cruz sa London, tayo sa China" Pagmamaktol ko pa rin

"Atleast makakakita tayo ng isang masterpiece noh, at sobrang mga professional ang nandon"Conor said while we're checking on the airport

It was my first time to ride an airplane, but I hate this fucking airline. Marami namang mga piloto so impossible naman. We are seated at the business class, dahil high level ang art gallery na pinagtratrabahuhan ko.

"Feel at home" Pagbibiro na sabi ni conor. Sila kase they've been to china already to bid an artwork, dahil nauna sila sakin ng one year naman. But we are all the same assistant director.

"Captain Wagner" The pilot said to me, and weird naman bat nagpapakilala toh' sakin

"This is Ms. Ortegas, And Mr and Ms. Ramos" Pagpapakilala ni Coleen

"Twins"Conor said and smiled, ang weird talaga nila

"Bakit kayo nagpakilala?" I asked them while they turned on the min tv or what basta yung nakadigkit sa ulunan ng upuan.

"Duh, we're at the business class"Coleen said at umirap pa ng mata

"First timer" Pangaasar sakin ni conor. 

Edi kayo na hindi first timer! And speaking off, ang pogi ng piloto, hindi ko na anrinig yung kasama niya. Huling hiniga ko na yata toh'

"Oh chill ka lang, makakabalik ka pa sa pilipinas" Ito nanaman tong si conor' trip na trip akong asarin eh.

May sinabi pa yung piloto at mga cabin crew pero hindi naman ako nakinig nanuod nalang ako ng harry potter dito.

We landed at beijing capital airport, buti nalang at nakapunta na dito yung kambal kundi baka maligaw kami dito. We checked in at a hotel first then nag yaya ako mag side seeing.Aba minsan lang naman makapunta ng china, asan ba dito yung great wall of china.

nakailang pilit pa ako sa kambal na pumunta kami sa great wall of china. Dahil nakapunta na daw sila don. Sabi ko libre ko nalang sila ng hotpot ayun pumayag.

We arrived at the great wall of china, pero ang daming lalakarin nakakaloka.

"Ano, tara" panghahamon no coleen
