There was never an odd moment during the dinner. There's always someone cracking up jokes. Well, that's on the team's table while in ours, it's like a prayer meeting. I thought he wanted to talk about something yet all I can hear are the clink of the utensils as we eat. I thought he wants to talk so why he is silent as a mute. Hindi na lang ako kumibo at itinutok ang atensyon sa pagkain. We're all having a rib-eye steak. As much I want to get a salad I didn't ask for one. These people will think that I'm that conscious with my weight that I won't eat what they're eating. "Did you look around the city? How was it?" he asked. Finally! Akala ko mapapanis lang ang laway ko dito. I lifted my head to make eye contact with him. "Yeah, We look around the city. We went to the museum and I can say that their museum is unique. We also took some pictures at the museum's lake. It was fascinating." He was speechless. Looks like he never expected my answer. I gave him a puzzled look before I spoke

After our trip to Bvlgari, we went to Cartier. As soon as we walked inside the store Dwight was attended by one of their people. The employee was a woman in her mid-20s. Their uniform hugs her in the right places. Requirement ba pag sales agent ka ng luxury brand ang pagiging sexy at enticing? Does a pretty sales agent equal high sales ba? "Good afternoon, Sir. How may I help you?" tanong ng attendant sa tonong nag papatas ng kilay ko. Is this their strategy? Mag sasalita na sana ako pero naunahan ako ni Dwight. "Ah yes. My girlfriend and I are looking for some jewelry. Any recommendations?" Bumagsak ang mukha nung babae. She glanced at me and barred her teeth. I heard her take a deep breath before speaking again. "This way." She walked in front of us with hips dramatically swaying. Pakiramdam ko tuloy mangangalas sya. I looked at Dwight who's waiting for me.&nbs

I thought I will be sleeping throughout the flight but I was wrong. Gising na gising ako habang nasa himpapawid kami. Hindi ko kayang matulog. Maybe it's because I'm nervous and anticipating something? Or my mind is still on Bahrain worrying about Dwight? "Do you need anything, Ma'am?" the attendant asked. When I looked at her, she immediately handed me the wine selection menu. Makakatulong ba ang alak sa lagay ko ngayon? I ordered without even looking at the menu. "Do you have some Goldschlager?" tanong ko sa attendant. Her eyes widen a bit. Napangiti ako. "According to your reaction, there is none," I said before finally looking at the wine menu. Why would I expect Goldschlager to be served on a flight? Some countries don't even know that it actually exists. "We actually have it. I'm just surprised because for the last 3,000 hours of flying you're the first one to ask for such liquor," the attendant said before turning her back to me to get the liquor. She's been flying for 3,00

"Looks like you're hiding something from your Dad, huh?" Lyle stated from my side. We are now on our way back to the hall. Hindi na ako tinigilan ni Lyle mula sa paglabas ko ng restroom. I didn't expect him to be this talkative. Akala ko isa s'ya dun sa mga usual na anak ng senador na tahimik lang at anti-social but I guess he's not. "Hello? Are you mute?" He was all over my face before we reached the opening of the hall. Seriously? "I'm not," I answered. He placed both of his hands on both of his pockets and smiled at me. Okay lang ba itong lalakeng ito? Anak ba talaga 'to ng senador? Mukhang may sayad 'to. "I like you," he blurted out. Nanlaki ang mata ko. He's so straightforward. "That's what they want me to say. Hindi mo pa ba ramdam?" he sarcastically asked. I get his point. The way they introduced us to each other is so weird. Ano future first lady na ba ako? "I'm not dumb. They want us to see each other. I mean it's okay with me. I could use a companion," I told him while w

The next day I decided not to join Dad with his agenda. I was thankful that I was knocked out from yesterday’s trip because if I was not, I’ll be up all night thinking. Kuya and Mom accompanied Dad with their trip. Ang alam ko ay nasa Bulacan sila ngayon. I withdrew myself from the bed and walked towards the living room of the suite. Mayroon nga palang binili si Kuya kagabi na fastfood on the way back to the hotel. Binuksan ko ang paperbag at naamoy ko na ang fried chicken at spaghetti. Talk about a healthy meal. Inilabas ko iyon mula sa paperbag at dinala ko iyon sa sofa. Looks like I’ll be here all day.Nanood ko ng Netflix series habang nag aalmusal. I’m currently obsessed with a Netflix series entitled ELITE. The series is set in Las Encinas, a fictional elite secondary school and revolves around the relationships between three working-class teenage students enrolled at the scho
