CHAPTER 80
LOU
SHOPPING DAY
“Aminah!” We heard a familiar voice that is coming in our direction.
“Yes?” Aminah replied. The familiar voice was from Frances. A while after, Frances appeared and entered Aminah’s house.
“Let’s go to the mall today?” She invited.
“What we are going to do there?”
“Let’s just wander around. Besides, I am looking for a shoe” She replied.
“How about you Lou? Do you want to join us?” Anne invited me. Since I already finished my works, I accepted her invitation.
“Let’s go! How about you, Aminah?” She thinks for a while first. Since it’s been a long time since the last, we went to the mall together, I think she will agree with Frances’ request.
“Fine. But we should not spend too much mone
CHAPTER 81LOUGARDEN DINNERBefore I went home, my cousins, uncles, and aunts decided to go to one of our aunt’s houses that have just departed here from the states. Thankfully, she had a chance to take a vacation here despite the situation we are facing right now. It’s been a long time since the last time I saw her. 2 years, I guess?She’s the one who always supports me in everything I do in my life including my makeup talent. Can’t wait to see her again and to have chitchats with her.“Shall we go?’ I asked my cousins who are also preparing. Today is Sunday at 10 in the morning. We are going to each lunch there because she prepared a lot for us.Beforehand, we used to go there frequently. She wants us to be there every time she’s going back here in the Philippines.“Let’s go!” My sister said.
CHAPTER 82LOUSHOOTING PLANNING, MONTH OF DECEMBER“Goodbye, everyone!!!” I said to my cousins, uncles, and aunts while carrying my bag.“Lou, are you leaving?” Frances’ dad asked.“Yes, because I need to do a lot of activities at our house. I will come back here on Christmas!” I replied to him.“That would be great! We are looking forward to your comeback here! You must celebrate it here because you know that it’s happy here” He responded.“Yes, Tito! I will!” I answered him smilingly.“Is your driver is already outside?” Aminah’s mom asked.“Yes, tita!”“What car did he brought?”“I think the Mustang since my brother is still using the van”“Ohh. I see. You must go now it seems like
CHAPTER 83LOUDays after going back here to Laguna, I decided to dye my hair again. I dyed my hair in different colors from the past months. My current hair color is faded blue. This is supposedly a vibrant one but I don’t know why this is the outcome of the hair color. I think the color pigment is not that good.I went inside of my comfort room to see my remaining colors and my smile widened as I saw the ash gray. What a timing because the shooting will be tomorrow.I get it and put it on the mixer. I squeeze its content and put the oxidizing lotion and blend it together.I’ve been wanting to achieve ash gray before. That is the reason why I decided to bleach my hair until to level 10. My mistake is I put first the blue one instead of this. I don’t know what will be the result of this after.“My sister will scold me again,” I said while mixing the mixture of the hair
CHAPTER 84.1LOUPICNIC GROVE, TAGAYTAYWe are now on our trip heading to Tagaytay. I hope there is no traffic today or else, we might take longer shooting on our first destination.Picnic grove has to enjoy cold weather and viewing the splendid, panoramic view of Taal Volcano/Lake are better done at the Picnic Grove, one of the popular tourist destinations in Tagaytay City. With its built-in cottages and greenish, hilly surroundings, this recreational area is just perfect for picnic lovers as well as family gatherings and the bonding of friends. Picnic Grove, on the other hand, is not all about picnics. It even offers a lot of exciting activities to make the day more fun and productive and makes one’s visit worth it. Everyone can enjoy horseback riding, cable car, Eco-trail, and zipline.Tagaytay is a popular holiday town south of Manila on the Philippine island Luzon. Know
CHAPTER 84.2LOUSKY RANCH TAGAYTAYAfter eating our lunch, we just had a pictorial at Picnic grove we leave right after for our next destination. We are now on our way going to Skyranch Tagaytay, one of the popular amusement parks here in Laguna.Sky Ranch, a leisure park in the renowned leisure city of Tagaytay, south of Metro Manila, is a 5-hectare project of SM Prime Holdings, Inc., SM Group’s consolidated subsidiaries and real estate assets. Neatly settled beside the famed Taal Vista Hotel, Sky Ranch is set to be one of the definitive Tagaytay experiences for families and groups of friends.

CHAPTER 85.1LOUBONDING IN SKY RANCH TAGAYTAYAfter a few minutes of taking montages, Gio and I stopped for a while to ask each other’s shots.“How many did you took?” I asked him“You first?”“I got 25 shots” I answered him.“Really? I have 22 shots” and I smiled as I heard his answer.“Is that true? Maybe all of that isn’t good quality huh?” I asked him kiddingly.“You can check it if you want” and he handed me the phone smilingly and I refused to look at it.“No need. I trust you” I replied and turned my gaze on the screen of my phoneWhile I am checking the shots I took earlier, Gio suddenly touched my arms with his finger.“Let’s try that, Lou!” He pointed to the location of the bumper cars and I smiled awkwardly a
CHAPTER 85.2LOUPEOPLE’S PARK, TAGAYTAYWe are now heading to the parking lot of the Skyranch. I am quietly walking while my friends are having conversations on the road loudly.I am confused about what Gio is trying to make me feel. I don’t have an idea if he’s just born clingy or that’s how he treats me. Since on the Vikings, my heart can’t stop beating properly now.I want to confess my feelings to him at Sky eye but I think it’s still early the reason I aborted my plan. Maybe, this isn’t the perfect timing.Maybe, I need to wish for a sign again on when should I confess my feelings to him. I wished for a lot of signs and almost all of them were granted. I am now thinking about what Frances has said to me.Gio is a good friend of mine. He knows how to respect everyone in our circle of friends. He’s an intelligent ma
CHAPTER 85.3LOUDINNER TIME“There is a lot of stuff that can be bought here,” Jane said while she’s looking around.“I don’t have any extra money. I spend it already at the Skyranch” Lester replied to her.“What do you want? I can lend you some penny” she answered.“I want this” and Lester pointed out a bracelet, a keychain, and a refrigerator magnet.“All right. Here” and Jane handed the money to Lester. While they are looking for goodies to buy, one thing caught my attention.I saw a shirt that has an aesthetic design. Fortunately, there is a black and white version of it. The text that was written on it is ‘Palace in the Sky’ with a small heart at the end.I suddenly remember when Gio bought a shirt for me as well during our shoot beforehand. What a coincidence. Tod
