The outcome of the last day of the shoot went well. We finished around 10 PM. Everyone went back to the tent to prepare dinner.As usual, a team dinner is held whenever the project is successful. And according to what will happen later.I just cleaned my body. I also put on a jacket and Anne and I left our tent.Arriving at the food tent, many people were already there. Dionysus and Sir Markus are also present. Other managers are with them at the table."You're ugly sir Markus," I heard Yuri say."Yes, there is pranking. You are a prankster, sir," said Uno.Sir Markus laughed. "Your youngest beat you! Jaja was even tickled!"Laughter filled the tent. Even when I was taking food, I laughed."So who was the most scared?""All I know is that it's not Benj. Did he aim the toy gun at the white lady," Yuri laughed."I heard from the oldest of us," Wakin replied to William.I got bottled water and sat next to Anne. Luke was with us at the table. Then I turned the noisy table.I saw Ethan's h

I didn't wait long for Ethan. Because a few minutes later he was in front of me. Now we are together in the car going to his condo in Makati. The flower is on my thigh. I was also just looking at what we were going through. Ethan was holding my other hand while he was driving.We were at his condo in just a few moments. As usual, he was the one who let me go up here first and I will follow. He was in his room and I was sitting in his living room. I looked behind when I heard the door open.He approached me. I stood up. He took my hand and took me into his room. I first saw the pink and blue balloon attached to the ceiling. I tightened my grip on Ethan's hand.Then he pulled me to enter fully. And that's when I saw the whole interior.I looked at what I stepped on, the rose petals were scattered. Then I looked up at what was in front of me. There were letters stuck on them. Forming the word ONE MONTH DOWN, FOREVER TO GO. I looked around and could only say one thing.I love this man ver

I had a happy welcome to the new year. Because of course, I am with my loved ones.Ethan was allowed by mama Feng to celebrate New Year with us. Brother Manu also said that he was tired of seeing Ethan's face when welcoming the new year.It is said that because of Ethan, she is still not having fun and all sorts of bad things are happening in her life every year. Brother Manu's joke was teased by Ethan."Let's pretend it's still tender. You can play. You just don't want it because you hope you'll come back. You feel it. Why are you so eager to come back?""You brag, you have Lily. The time will come when she will leave you too. Because she will realize how ugly you are. That you look like a foot, so she will just go back to her ex," her older brother retorted.And because of what his older brother said, I could almost hear what he was saying over and over again. Like.."When you left me Lily Iris, it was like you gave away a billion to the rich.""You're going to get your eyes checked

"So, you're one of those who will cook something to serve at the cafe?""Yes, especially the main dishes. Because that's what I learned to cook.""It's a shame. When you're the one to cook my meals, then I'm not there..."I laughed. "You can tell your manager that you want to order food from the company's cafeteria.""Hmm, yeah right. I'll try to ask sir Marcus.""You should, so that you can taste what I am cooking in café," I said happily.Suddenly it came to my mind that what if Ethan and I got married? I will cook for him before he goes to work. Then when he comes home, I will massage him.Thinking about the future excites me and at the same time, it scares me."Or can you make food specifically for me?"Actually, I've thought about it. It's just his first day of their training slash rehearsals. What if, I will send food or stuff for him. Then I pretend to be his fan?Speaking of being a fan, I bought a ticket for their first ever fan meet and mini concert. I will surprise him. I w

I heard Ethan gasp next to me.We were back in my room and lying on the bed. Every time Ethan came to our house and he was in my room, I didn't lock the door. He's the same way when I'm in his room. Sometimes he leaves the door open for us to see inside.Then his older brother would tease us."Alright, get dressed and I'll take you there. Maybe you're missing something there besides work," he responded coldly.I glanced at him and saw his serious look again. I laughed weakly that I knew he heard because he glanced at me. Glance with distress. He's acting wrong again, he's jealous again.I hugged him and pressed myself to him. "You're jealous.""I'm not jealous, FYI.""Really?" he nodded and snorted."If you do come in, you'll understand. As long as your fever comes back, you take a whole medicine, right? You won't crush it, then when you get home, remove your ear because you're not listening."I know this is a serious conversation and situation, but I can't help but laugh. Ethan looke

They also prepared a mini role play.Where Wakin is pregnant and her parents Ethan and Yuri don't know. Wakin allegedly got pregnant with Benj, the son of William and Uno. Until each family found out what happened to Wakin and Benj. They both got married and their son, Riki, lived.Everyone laughed. Especially me, every time the camera is on Ethan and it flashes on the two big screens. Thrill mixed with fun.After a while DIONYSUS exited. The stage is set. They put a long table and seven mono block chairs. There are also drinks on the table and food. There are also many markers on the table. And on each seat back, there is a big box.The light went out again. A video flashed on the screen. It showed how DIONYSUS was formed. How to make a seven-time debut. I cried at the part where Ethan cries every time a StarLanders near him leaves.After watching the video, the seven came out. Ethan was holding his cellphone while walking. He is wearing eye specs. The jacket was slung over his shoul

The days passed quickly.It's my last day in the department.I will move again and meet new faces and new personalities.I'm in Gavyn's office, he's fixing my paper. In order for me to reach the top, I will let them shop for the department for me. They will base Ethan's comments on me. How I am at work and his personal opinions about me.I patiently waited for Gavyn to sign and comment on each page of thick paper. It took him half an hour to sign and write. He sorted the papers back into my folder. Then he handed it to me."Is it okay if I ask you how your experience working in a cafeteria?"I sat up straight. "Uh, at first I was a bit... scared. Because we were talking before that the new senior in the department was rude and strict. So I did my best not to make a mistake so I wouldn't get yelled at or scolded. But as time went on working here, I noticed that the senior here is not really rude and strict. It's a good workplace, less hassle compared to my past departments. Maybe I'll

"Yes, the news is that the Chairman took me on purpose to become a trainee again. Do you know that the Chairman's favorite..."I just sighed when I heard that. That's not new to me. Someone always notices that I'm attached to the Chairman and what they say. I'm really nervous that if I make my debut... they'll think it's because of the Chairman.I just laugh at my fellow trainees for teasing me. Tonight, the big night. Tonight it will be known who will debut in HBLE's new boy group. I was so nervous that I sang in the bathroom to calm myself down. Then now, I laugh at their teasing. They say I need Miss Soho's help to find Ms. Lily is back again.I was very itchy after my name was mentioned. I can't hold the mic properly. My voice trembled while speaking in front of many people, the producers, the Chairman, Risen and especially Seventh.My trembling turned to joy when my friend's names were also mentioned. We hugged as we completed the debut tonight.I was so happy when I found out th

"You're down here, pre," I said to my friend at the computer shop.I was on my way home because I passed by a computer shop so I stopped for a while. My broken brother scolded me. He changed our Wi-Fi password! So I can't play! My examinations are over. I don't have a pile of plates anymore.Broken people do things differently. Ts He's still able to ground me, right? I'm in my second year of college. Really crazy.Every click I make on the mouse and the keyboard is fast. I've put up with the headphone being stuck in my ear even though it smells different. I'll just take a shower when I get home."The strength of one of our opponents," said the person next to me who is my ally. I also only met him here at the computer shop. He saw that I was playing as well as he was playing so he invited me."Gosh, that's okay. Just don't let it go," I answered him.Apart from my addiction to music, it is also one of my preoccupations. Especially in the first weeks after that night. I made it a distra

"Alright Ace, go with sister Jing. Mommy will follow okay?"I was crying tightly hugging Mama. I don't understand why he is sending us home together with sister Jing when we can all go home together.While I was hugging him tightly, he was pushing me away. He was trying to get out of my embrace. Why?"M-Mommy, please go together p-po..."-Son, Mommy will be next okay? I'm just going somewhere—""Come on Ace," Kuya said coldly.I ignored him so he joined in pulling me away from Mama. Mama just nodded and smiled at me. While I was losing and trying to get out of the hands of sister Jing and brother Manu.No! I don't want to go home without Mommy! I kept crying that I didn't care if people were looking at me. In the car I stiffened, all the doors were locked. I wasn't there and I still hurt Kuya. While sister Jing took care of me and prevented me from getting out of the car.I didn't mean to punch Kuya in the face.I looked at the back of the car as we drove away from our favorite restau

"H-Huh? What do you mean we should stop? Stop from breathing? Stop from talking? Eating? What Lily Iris?"I want to stay serious but I can't. Especially and I can see the confusion on his face. It's like he's crying again."Why? Did I do something wrong? Was it about the text? I was just joking! So, please baby tell me what exactly do you want us to stop? I-Is my courtship? Y-You want me to stop now? Why? D-Did I rush everything again? I already told you, we will keep this slow..."His eyes fell to the floor. I bit my lower lip to stop laughing. He will not be my Eltan if he is not this OA. He wouldn't be this Eltan that I liked before if he didn't think ahead. A different Eltan is in front of me now if he doesn't cry because of the frustrations he feels."Yes Ethan," I tried to keep my voice cool. "I want you to stop flirting with me. I want you to stop, let's stop this."He looked up at me and smiled weakly. He nodded one after the other."I see, I know that from the beginning it is

I clenched my hands under the table. What Ethan said made my head hurt. I don't know who I should really be angry with for what happened to us.Many names are mentioned. I don't know which of them to blame. Iya, Gavyn, Chairman, Ethan, or myself."But the Chairman was even angrier with what Serrah did and when I said that I would also re-release a statement. He stopped me. Do you remember when I was alive? I told you that I would make my statement on the issue live. I didn't who was able to say more because of the Chairman."He continued. He tried several times to issue a statement but the Chairman always blocked it. He apologized to me because he was unable to release the statement he knew I was waiting for. But I didn't answer. I let him talk. He has also grinned. That's why I rarely talked to him then.I thought it was because he was affected by the issue. By the way, he was facing something more serious. What I think about him is why he doesn't want or doesn't have a statement rel

They laughed so I couldn't stop laughing. Fortunately, the workers at the firm that Justin works for are kind and hardworking. They had started less than half a day, they had finished quite a bit."Miss Ganda, do you have a boyfriend yet?""Miss Ganda has a girlfriend! Didn't you hear what Architect said earlier? Miss Ganda is hers!"They kept teasing the one who asked if I had a boyfriend. I was about to say that I don't have a boyfriend, when someone asked me again."Do you always visit here, miss Ganda?""Uh, I don't know. Besides, you can just call her Lily," I told them."Alright Lily!"I just smiled at them again and told them to continue eating. After a while I decided to go home. I said goodbye to them and they were even sad and said that I would visit again.I just said I would try. Especially I'm waiting for someone to accept me at work. Ethan has also disappeared from the surroundings. I don't know where he went. But I didn't see him until I got in the car.I just drove hom

"Thanks, Hijo, but aren't you busy? Are you really sure you'll accept this? I can get some architects from the firm that Justin works for if you're busy. It's embarrassing-""No Tita, we have a three-month break. So, I'm not that busy. Besides, I want to keep my promise. Even if it's just my promise to you," he said calmly.I scoffed at what he said.I drank the shake that was in front of me. We have food on the table. There are three Filipino dishes, there are also cakes for dessert. I was the only one who had a shake while the three of them had one pitcher of iced tea.It's good and he has a word. He was also right, he fulfilled the words he left to Mama. Even those promises he made to Mama."Okay, so do we have a deal?" the two men exchanged glances. "I will talk to Atty. so he can arrange a contract and some important papers. Then, we will have another meeting if the construction starts..."After the conversation, we started eating. Mama and Justin are still talking continuously w

I accept it.It took me a long time to admit to myself that I accepted Ethan without him.I had to see him happy with Serrah before I decided to forget him. I had to get tired and chase before I accepted that I wasn't really me anymore. I tried several times, I begged and begged and insisted. And he only answered one thing..."Please Ethan," I cried to him.I caught him alone in the dressing room and took that chance to talk to him. No one else and just the two of us. I don't even know how and why I ended up here."I told you, Lily. I don't want it anymore. We're done. What else do you want to hear?" The irritation was obvious in his voice.I stepped closer to him but he also stepped away. I sighed."I want you to take back everything you said.""I have nothing to take back. Everything I said, I stand by."I sobbed. "Is that all? You're just going to throw everything away? I thought-""Didn't I tell you to forget everything?" he already thinks badly of me. "And stop me, please. My dec
