simula niya habang binubuksan yung folder, “Astrid’s been giving me excellent reports about your work. She says you’ve been very receptive to our demands.” Receptive. Parang lahat ng salita niya may ibang meaning na gusto kong hindi isipin. “I’ve been trying my best,” sagot ko, neutral ang tono. “And you’ve succeeded from what I see.” Binuksan niya ang ilang pages. “Your reports show you really know how to satisfy expectations.

What am I, a withered flower, compared to you?”

"You're like a beggar eager for their attention. Why would I envy you?" I pursed my lips. Tumaas ang kilay ko sa sinabi niya. "If you're not envious, then why are you so agitated? Don't tell me you're secretly fangirling them?" Umiling-iling ako. "Give up. You're not special like me so they won't notice a small fly like you." Nandilim ang mukha ni Jamaica sa sinabi ko. Bingo. I hit the mark, didn't I?

It was honest and full of admiration, like he was trying to find the perfect way to say what he felt but kept falling short. I looked down shyly, brushing a strand of hair from my face. "That’s just the makeup," I whispered, feeling a little self-conscious. It was my usual way of downplaying the compliment, a habit I’d learned over time. I thought maybe he wouldn’t see beyond that, or wouldn’t notice how much effort I’d put into my appearance.

"I love you more than you'll ever know." I giggled because of his sweet words. Hindi pa rin niya 'ko tinitigilan sa mga matatamis niyang salita. I still feel butterflies in my stomach whenever he flatters me. "Sige na, kailangan na ulit ako nina Cloud. Gusto lang kitang i-update, just like how you wanted me to."

Or to impress other people so she can recieve praise and more. “Yes, i know that you are good at everything Feline, kaya kayang kaya mo lahat ng iyan,” I said while smiling, damn. How long I can pretend that I am nice person. Nakakapagod maging mabait lagi sa paningin ng ibang tao. Sometimes, i wanna throw insults to all people that i know, insults na totoo at hindi insulto lang na pwede ko maipang lait. “Thank you talaga Amelia, isa ka sa inspiration ko, kahit nasa iyo na ang lahat ay mabait at humble ka padin.

"Shit! Why are you pretty?" Ngumiwi ako sa ako narinig. "Stop with your compliments!" I hissed. "I couldn't help it. Aren't you aware how pretty you are whenever I see you? You always make my heart flutter." Why was he so straightforward? My cheeks flushed hearing his words. I'm used to people's adoration with my beauty but I was never pleased with them, today is an exception. "You know, I am not the type of guy who will not hesitate to tell you this, Jezrel. You always make my heart crazy."

"Baka masunog ka d'yan. Ayusin mo naman expression mo, baka isipin ng mga tao may kaaway ka." Sumulyap siya, tapos balik tingin agad sa kalsada. "Mas okay na yun kaysa kasama ka." Napangisi ako. There it is. "Talagang every morning, insulto no? Nakaka-flatter ah. Ibig sabihin nasa isip mo ako first thing in the morning." Napatigil siya saglit, tapos huminga ng malalim. "Ambisyoso."
