“Is it your artwork, Ms. Valderrama?” Mr. Tan suddenly caught his attention to one of my works as he was looking at it interestingly.

I looked at him while his eyes were still there. “Yes, Vida Humana. Actually, that artwork reflects human nature and portrays how we should give value to our nature’s life..” I noticed he was nodding his head while his finger was under his chin. He might be thinking something.

Suddenly, he turned his body to me and he asked. “How much is the price of that artwork of yours?” looks like he is interested in buying it now. So, I replied.

“I sell it for ten million dollars. But if you wanted to have some price negotiable, we can talk about that Mr. Tan..” he chuckled for a second when he heard about what I said.

“Thank you, Mr. Valderrama. Well, I can buy it for its original price but as an old collector of yours, you really should..” as he said that, we both laughed for a moment.

Well, actually, Mr. Tan is always like that and I’m happy he became one of

    Continuation… “Sofia..” Kade tries to stop her as I might notice that the way Sofia utters her words seems it is rude, especially to me. Speaking Kade-he’s trying to avoid his eyes on me. Something that he wanted to hide not to see me. Maybe because of what he has done to me before. And yes, I still have not forgotten it. And if I just let my pride prevail, I could still loathe him but as he was my cousin’s boyfriend, I didn’t let myself keep a wave of anger at him for almost a year. “Why, Kade? Is there anything wrong with that?” she uttered in a gentle way. But I know she’s just controlling herself. Sofia crossed her arms and let out a breath. “I just wanted to see Lola even as she doesn't want me to see anymore, right Lola?” she said sarcastically. “Is not like that, Sofia. Actually, I’m glad, I didn’t expect that I’ll see you here…” I paused when I tried to tilt my eyes to Kade. “Especially, Kade is with you..” I tried not to fake my smile in front of them even though Sofia

    I heard loud music coming from this resto and disco bar when I entered inside.As I was in, one of the staff here abruptly approached me. I asked him where Laurene was and then he led me to her.Yes, speaking of this bar-one of Laurene's close acquaintances owns this bar that’s why Laurene, me, and our visitors on this night are prioritized or we’re their VIPs as Laurene had already talked about it regarding having some small celebration after my exhibition.As I walked through the bar rails, I saw Laurene seated there and sipping her wine. When I reached the bar stool where she was seated, I sat there beside her.Speaking of why I just got here now, I actually attended first an appointment with Mr. Smith and I informed Laurene about it.Well, our conversation did not last long because Mr. Smith and I both had our appointments after we talked.“Oh, Lola. How’s the deal?” I ordered first for a cocktail before I responded with Laurene.“Well, it’s fine. I’m happy that Mr. Smith negotiat

    Continuation... “Anyway, how was your business, Heaven? I heard your company is at the top. Isn’t it?” Laurene opened a conversation as we were now sitting here in the lounge, with our drinks and wines in the middle, placed on top of the table. Heaven adjusted his seat, clasping his hands then he spoke. “Well, what you said was right. There are companies who want to compete with me and try to bring it down but luckily, they did not succeed in their plan..” I saw Laurene nodding her head while I, listened to what he was saying while sipping my wine. And for a moment, I entered their conversation. “I heard about it. Especially those who sabotage your company..” Heaven shrugged and then he sighed. “Yeah. It really has..” Heaven took his wine, then he leaned his back while crossing his legs. “Well, that’s a part of the business. And I can assure you that they will never win, as they’re also some people who competed with me before but it just loses their money and causes their bankrupt

Right, my loving Heaven? I mean, Mr. Marquez?” Heaven just chuckled at their silliness.And speaking about Heaven-I noticed that he’s only the man here.Suddenly, I feel shy about him. Yeah, and I know he just doesn't show it. Especially, he’s with my brat and my silly friends.And I feel sorry for that if that is really so. Ugh!“Uhmm, guys. If you wouldn’t mind, I know you want to have a party. So, will you go there with me?” she pointed to the dance floor where there was a crowd using her snout.I know Laurene says it when Candice, who is seated bes

    I let out a breath after throwing those thoughts. And of a sudden, I try to peek inside my bag when I mind to take and open it.I thought of taking my phone inside my bag. I checked it as I opened the screen.But when I checked it, I remembered that Kevin would call me to inform me if he was here already.Speaking of Kevin–as I checked my phone, I saw on the screen that there was a missed call from him and there was also a text flashed on my phone's screen.I immediately read his message. And when I opened it, he said on that text just a few seconds away that he’s now coming here.I abruptly closed my phone’s screen and then I put it back inside my bag.“Is there anything wrong, Lola?” I forget that Heaven was here. Maybe I paid too much attention to my phone and I didn’t remember his presence.Goodness! Lola! Why did you forget?!“Nothing. I check to look if Kevin texted me...” he just nodded and he just drank.Of a sudden, I noticed Heaven turned his eyes somewhere before I averted

    Laurene Torres As I took my friends to the dance floor, I noticed Candice and Trisha looked like a child as they were arguing about Heaven. They are both raising their brows and teasing each other. Really? How childish these two are! “Hey guys, if I were you, I would just choose that guy over Heaven so I have no other to compete..” Jane who is sipping her wine that he took from the waiter who approached us, pointed out the server boy wearing white plain sleeves with a vest and a necktie, he is not far from where we are standing as he was just on the other side. He was giving drinks to someone. “You really have good taste, Jane. I think he is more luscious than food..” Summer uttered in a seductive tone, then sipped his wine. He also stared at that man while he was seriously doing his job here. I noticed that we were just standing here while the music is still playing and those people are dancing.

But suddenly, my two eyes caught Lola walking somewhere, and it looked like she was finding us.“Hey, Laurene!

    Adam Lopez It took an hour before I reached Bohol with my co-workers as my work provided us with free travel transportation, food, a place to stay, and other incentives. My manager, Mr. Greene, assigned me to this place as they needed employees to work here for just three days, and I just took this as an opportunity as it was a big help for me to have money that I would use to visit my father. Probably this next week, just like I’ve said before. Speaking of my work–I’ll be a server here at that resto.

    "A-Adam," I uttered, my gaze fixed on him, and my body felt like a statue. I couldn't quite explain what I was feeling, especially when I laid eyes on him again, and now our eyes briefly met."L-Lola, how did you know I was here?" I quickly composed myself and avoided letting him see what I was feeling at the moment.Ugh! Goodness, Lola! You should act normal! You don't like that person, right?"O-ohh, sorry. You're wealthy, after all. You probably saw me on the CCTV," he sighed deeply. I noticed his Adam's apple move as he briefly scanned my entire body, then he slipped his hands into his pockets and averted his gaze from me.I couldn't help but chuckle softly, slightly lowering my head before speaking. "U-Uhm, actually, I saw you on the balcony... so I came to find you." I gestured with my eyes toward the balcony, and suddenly, his gaze shifted there too.After he saw it, he averted his eyes again. He scratched his head and let out a soft laugh.Suddenly, the surroundings became qui

    Of a sudden—I turned my body again, facing the ceiling. I focused my gaze on it for a moment. I sighed deeply and tried to blink my eyes.At that moment, my sleepiness seemed to vanish when Adam suddenly crossed my mind as I opened my eyes again.And here—I tried to place my hand on my chest, where I could feel my heart beating strongly.While still doing this—I felt something strange in my stomach, and I found myself smiling like a crazy person while still staring at the ceiling, with thoughts of Adam popping up in my head—especially about what happened between us earlier and the days we've spent together.Ugh! Crazy, Lola! Why am I thinking about him? What's happening to me? Why do I feel this way about him?!As I realized this, I stopped smiling. I tried not to think about him and quickly closed my eyes.But after a few seconds, I still couldn't. I opened my eyes again when he crossed my mind."What's wrong with him that I'm feeling like this?! Am I falling in love with that man?!"

    Afterward, I just focused on what I was eating, and suddenly I heard Dad cough."Oh, Heaven, you're here.." I heard Dad's voice say it.H-Heaven? Is he here? Did I hear it correctly? Is he here?And there—I noticed that Dad and Mom stood up. I didn't realize that Sally and Minda had finished eating and were no longer in their seats.About them—I quickly noticed that they started walking and turned towards someone. I noticed Dad and Mom were now back in their seats, adjusting themselves.Suddenly, I heard a soft cough in front of me.Regarding this—when I lifted my gaze, I saw Heaven standing before me.At that moment, my heartbeat suddenly quickened, and the surroundings seemed to momentarily quiet down.W-Wait—what? Why is he here? Is there something I don't know? Or is there something I should know? I asked myself while he was now seated in front of me.*************I slumped onto my bed as I entered my room after dinner and took care of myself. I feel tired and my body is somewhat

    "Oh, Lola! Come on, your mommy and daddy have been waiting for you since earlier.." As soon as I stepped out of my car, Nanay Sally greeted me right away, and it seemed like she had been waiting for my arrival."Where are they, Sally? Did they just arrive?" I asked as she walked alongside me toward the entrance of the house."Yes. They were waiting for you in the kitchen. I told them you went to see your friend," she replied, and I nodded in confirmation.Speaking of them, I suddenly remembered that they were coming home, and it was almost eight o'clock in the evening when I arrived. Well, that's because my nosy friends, especially Laurene, didn't spare me from their questions about me and Adam.I told them what really happened, but they seemed disappointed because they thought something was going on between Adam and me. They honestly told me that Adam and I looked good together, and they would support us if we ended up together.Goodness! They are crazy girls.But talking about that

    "Oh, Lola, you're here! Why did you take so long?""We've been waiting for you since earlier...""Yeah, we've been here for a while..." Laurene, Jane, and Summer asked in succession.I took a chair from the dining table, placed my purse on the table, and sat down. Summer was sitting on my left, busy with her makeup, while Jane was on my right, eating an apple.Meanwhile, Candice was busy looking at dresses, probably for Laurene, who seemed occupied with her cupcake.Speaking of this—what time did I arrive that they're reacting like that? They were probably here earlier, and I was the one they were waiting for. Ugh!"I-I got stuck in traffic, so it took me a while..." I made an excuse because they might interrogate me if I told the truth. These friends of mine are such gossip, and they might tease me about Adam.Speaking of Adam—suddenly, I felt a surge of joy in my heart, and I realized I was smiling.At that moment, I was snapped out of my thoughts when I noticed they were all lookin

    But wait, I tried to sneak a glance at Tyler and Adam, and there seemed to be a difference in their faces. I also realized that there was something about them that I couldn't understand or comprehend.Ugh! What's going on in my mind? All I know is that they are siblings and maybe I'm a part of that too.For now, I set aside the thoughts in my mind.Going back to Tyler, he has somehow grown dear to me. I don't want to neglect the child, especially after what I've heard and what happened earlier.At this moment, he immediately looked away, and I did the same, slightly lowering my head.*******"I'm sorry again for what happened earlier. And I hope you and Tyler can..." I trailed off, my head slightly bowed as I spoke those words to him. I heard him sigh."Thank you. I hope so too," he paused for a moment, and I tried to glance at him, but he was looking into the distance."Also, you don't have to worry about Tyler anymore.

    "A-adam, if you would allow me, let me take him to the hospital for a check-up. He might have wounds or bruises. And I'll take responsibility because it's my fault... I caused the accident, so I should be blamed for what happened..." I humbly said as Adam and Tyler stood in front of me, with Tyler avoiding eye contact with Adam.I'm still not asking what the real reason is, but for now, I need to have Tyler checked by a doctor. I don't want to just leave what happened to him. Besides, it's my fault for what happened earlier.But I can't understand why Tyler seems to be avoiding Adam. Maybe it's about what happened earlier? Or is there another reason?And what is it? Ugh! Yeah, I'm confused.He briefly glanced at Tyler and then looked at me. Suddenly, the atmosphere shifted, and I felt that his expression became serious as he looked at me and spoke."Thank you, but it's not necessary.

It will take place at 6 PM, and she invited me to go there. As for this, I started wondering about my friends.
