"You surprise me every time." Natigilan ako nang may nasagi, lumipad ito malapit sa aking paa. I bent down to get it, a small picture of her. Young and youthful.

That figure is perfect. I've never seen someone that pretty. My thumb unconsciously moved to caress her face as if having a mind of it's own. Lips smiling like a crazy runaway patient of an asylum. This cute creature is gonna get her smile back and I'm gonna make sure of that.

he said. I raised my head. "But I fall for you." This time he couldn't fight the smile forming on his lips. I grinned. "See? No matter how much you try to stop yourself from smiling, you will never win." "Alright, it's cheesy Adra." "But you like it!" I teased him. He let go of me and walked towards the other direction while shaking his head. "Asmo! Where are you going? Are you trying to avoid admitting the fact that a twenty two year old girl made a hundred year old vampire smile in years?!" I screamed as I tried to run to follow him.

I know someday, makahanap ako magpapakita ng worth ko. I just smiled at Archer. "Ayan, nakangiti kana." Tumingin ito sa malayo.

wala sa sariling sagot ko sa kanya na ikinatawa niya ng mahina. "I understand, but try to smile," sabi niya pa bago dahan-dahan na binuksan ang pinto ng function hall kung saan gaganapin ang meeting namin. Kaagad akong pumasok kaso hinawakan niya ang siko ko kaya natigilan ako para lingunin siya. "Huh?" tanong ko pero ngumiti siya lalo. "I said smile. You can change the worl with just your smile," sabi kaya unti-unting sumilay ang maliit na ngiti sa akin. Napailing rin ako ng dahan-dahan.

Hindi naman s’ya nakakatakot. “This is the first time someone is not amused about my name.” Napa-face palm s’ya. At napatawa ako nang mahina. I am more amused because he also laugh with me. “You should smile more,” I encouraged him. He grabbed a spoonful of mashed potatoes and speak, “You want to see me smiling?” Tumango ako. “Okay! I’ll smile more.”

Dahil sa ekspresyong pinakita ko, lalo lang ito nag bigay ng kasiyahan sa kaniya sa muli niyang pag tawa. "Wag ka masiyadong pahalata na kasoyahan mo ako." Dahil sa sinabi ko ay binigyan niya ako ng isang nag tatakang mukha. I smirk before crossing my arms. "I never see you smiling or laughing. Even a mocking smirk can't be seen on your face. Tapos sa simpleng pag kauntog ko ay halos mamatay kana kakatawa?" Dahan-dahan akong umiling while giving him my best smirk. Because I still won.

She's been there before too, sino nga naman ang magiging komportable sa kabilaang pagngiti sa mga taong madalas ay wala namang pakialam sa'yo? You have to smile a lot. Ms. Adamakis used to remind her before. Even when you're tired, not in the mood, or pained, smile! That's disgusting to do, but eventually, she's got used since it's part of her job in the first place. She's there every day to attend to guests in a very friendly way and the first step toward that is to smile at each of them.

Takhang tanong nito. "Like you're so carefree," I answered, still remembering how he laughed earlier. It's not a laugh that you can hear loudly. He chuckled lightly as if he only wanted to show this side to me. His laugh was laced with a hum of amusement. And now, his lips are in a taunting smile.
