It's been a minute since the plane took off but I am still shock of what just happened. 

I am now sitting right next to this handsome man beside me who just brought chaos to my mind.

'Well, it's not like you are totally new to this kind of situation. Just go with the flow. Remember that you agreed to this.'

Oo na nag agree na ako pero di naman ako na inform na wife pala yung role ko. Hayst!

"You okay?" Alex asked me.

I smiled and just nod. 

"Well, actually, i'm not. I still need explanation of what just happened. I don't mean to dig in with your life but I think I deserve to know what I am dealing with?"

He smiled and slightly nod. "Yeah, I know. I'm sorry about earlier. I just wanna stop her from whatever she's doing."

He leaned back on his seat. Parang inaalala pa nya ang mga nangyari kaya naman naghintay nalang ako kung kailan sya handa magkwento.

But just as he was about to speak and share his side of story, dumating yung flight attendant na yumakap sa kanya kanina slash ex-fiance nitong 'husband' ko kuno.

"Good day Mr. Sarmiento! Can I get you any drink or I'll choose for you?" she asked Alex while obviously flirting with him. But Alex is just looking at me while holding my hands.

Tsk. How can a grown up handsome man act this way? 

How adorable.. Oopppss!

"Actually, my husband and I are good. Thanks but no thanks" I said while smiling angelicly to this Miranda girl.

"Hmm, I believe I asked Alex and not you..," Hindi nya tinapos ang sentence nya but the way she raise her eyebrows, she wants to say the B word.

"Oh, I'm sorry miss. I believe that my husband, which is Mr. Sarmiento for you by the way, only talks to people that matters to him. I hope you don't mind, if you know what I mean?"

Kalma lang akong nakatingin sa kanya na namumula na sa inis. Habang si Alex naman ay parang amuse na amuse sa nasasaksihan ang pag sagot-sagot ko sa ex-fiance nya.

"Do you mind giving us privacy? My HUSBAND and I needs to talk about something." I said while looking straight in her eyes and emphasizing the word husband.

Di nagtagal ay umalis na rin si Miranda.

"You can now let go of my hand Alex and start the story telling na please"

He just stared at me for a few seconds with amusement all over his face and his cute killer smile. 

Since when naging cute ang killer smile Xandra? Tsk! Sya lang nakakagawa non self.

"Well, ahm" tumikhim muna sya bago nagsimula sa kwento nya na may ngiti parin sa mga labi nya.

"Miranda is my ex-fiance. We met on our high school days, 3rd year kami to be exact. We started dating nong 1st year college kami. We were doing fine. I took up Business Management while she took Tourism."

Obviously.

"She's clingy, spoiled brat, demanding, annoying,"

I raised my left hand in front na nagpatahimik sa kanya. 

"Don't badmouth your ex. May pinagsamahan pa rin kayo no, so wag kang ganyan"

Binaba nya naman yung kamay ko but he didn't let go of it. 

"I know. But back then, I actually didn't mind it. Spending my money for her was never an issue. I proposed to her after we graduated. We planned back then na sa following year na kami magpapakasal since pupunta pa akong states to train kasi ako yung mag te-take over ng family business namin. Sabi pa nga namin na 'it's only just a year'. But my stay there was extended for about three years more. And when I came back home. She's still annoying and irritating but she has a lot of records also."

Napatakip naman ako sa bibig ko.

"She was imprisoned?? Hindi halata"

Napatawa naman sya dahilan para mapasimangot naman ako.

"Silly. What I mean is she had some affairs to people I actually know. And when I confronted her, she just said that it was all in the past now and that she's all mine already since i'm back home." mapait naman syang napangiti. Napailing din sya kaya I gave him a tap on his back.

"I'ts fine. I heard enough already"

Napatango naman sya.

"Now my turn to ask, what's your name?" tanong nya na nakapagpatigil sakin. 

"Allyson" I calmly answered.

I could've told him my real name but i'll just consider this happenings na isa sa mga extra works ko.

"How young are you Ally?" tanong pa nya.

"I'm 28. Eh ikaw?" He looks older and matured for me so i guess he's on his 30's.

"33" he replied.

Silence took over after we exchange our names and age. Hindi ko namalayan na nakatulog pala ako.

A gentle caress on my cheeks woke me up from my sound sleep.

"Hey beautiful, wake up, the plane landed already. Let's get out of here"

Agad naman akong napatayo at nagpunas ng mukha, baka may laway pa no. Although di naman talaga ako nag lalaway matulog.

Medyo antok pa ako kaya dahan-dahan lang yung lakad po. Inalalayan naman ako ni Alex hanggang sa makababa kami ng eroplano.

We got our luggages already and time to go on our separate ways when I spotted Miranda few meters away from us and naglalakad sya papalapit.

"Alex, sumabay ka nalang okay?"

I clung at Alex arms and nag aantok-antokan pa kuno.

Mukhang na gets naman agad ni Alex ang nangyayari kaya sumabay narin sa pakulo ko. He unclung my arms and hug me instead then kiss my forehead.

Psimple ko naman syang inirapan, "You don't have to do that you know"

He smiled tsaka kinurot ang ilong ko. "Silly, mas okay to para sweet na sweet talaga tignan and mukhang effective din kasi di na tumuloy papunta dito" pasimple nya ring sabi habang naka ngiti pa rin.

Kahit sino mag aakala talagang nag lalambingan kami. If they could only hear what we are saying.

"Kung umalis na sya, bitaw kana. Pupunta pakong hotel eh and I still have to unpack."

Bumitaw naman sya sa yakap pero nakahawak sya sa kamay ko.

"Andyan pa sya, tara na at ihahatid nalang kita sa hotel mo"

Sumunod nalang ako sa kanya since nakahawak pa din sya sa kamay ko. And no reklamo nalang kasi baka masayang lang pagpapanggap ko sa plane no kung mabulgar na di naman talaga kami mag asawa.

Lumapit kami sa isang limousine. Binuksan naman nya agad ito at inalalayan akong makapasok. Nakasakay nako ng limousine noon kaya di na bago sakin to. But what amazed me is that he has a limousine service so that means, he is really someone in the business.

Oh well, good for him. I just shrugged the thought off and waited for him to get in too. 

After makarating sa hotel dun nalang ako mag ba-bye and thank you sa kanya sa paghatid. 

We were sitting next to each other but in each end of the car. Giving us some space.

I told him which hotel I'll be staying in. After that, he's busy with his phone so I plan sana na imidlip muna. But to my surprise, nagising nalang ako na nasa isang malaking kwarto at napakagara ng kulay at mga disenyo nito.

Where the hell I am??

    Just like sa mga movies na napanood ko at sa mga kwentong nabasa ko online, I checked myself if I am still wearing the same clothes I remembered wearing. 'Thanks G!' I am still wearing the same clothes at hindi naman sumasakit yung pechay na as far as I remembered, mananakit daw yun pag na drill. I get off the bed I was in. In all fairness ha, halatang luxurios place to. I looked around to find something na makakapagbigay hint sa akin kung nasaan ako. Ano nga ba yung nangyari? Pano ako napunta dito?? Xandra, first day mo sa bakasayon mo tapos ganito na nangyari. Hindi nato pag rerelax eh, nakaka stress nato!! I was about to go near the door when it opened. Alex! "Hey, good morning Ally" he said while entering the room habang may dala-dalang tray na may takip which I think may lamang mga pagkain. Medyo nalito ako sandali kung bakit "Ally" ang tawag nya sa akin. He smiled at me sabay nguso sa may coffee table sa likod ko. "Breakfast?" "Ahm, okay" Nauna na syang pumunta sa

    We talked a lot over our breakfast. Palakwento rin si Alex. A total opposite of what I thought businessmen are. I mean, by the looks of it kasi, hindi siya yung klase ng tao na bubbly pala at talkative. Not in the bad way naman kasi mahilig lang ata talaga syang mag kwento. But sa hinaba ng mga napagkwentuhan namin hindi nya na nabanggit si Miranda sa usapan. Hindi nya rin nababanggit kung anong business ang ginagawa nya. Well, I didn't ask naman din eh. Kinwento nya sakin ang mga past time nya when he's off work like visiting one of his rest house sa province nila at tumambay sa farm daw nila. Kung wala naman daw sya sa province nila, he would usually go for a long ride or just stay at home. At dahil nga sa palakwento sya, he did share about sa mga gusto nyang gawin or masubukang gawin kaso he never had a time for it like mountain climbing and sky diving. "Alam mo, kanina pako nagkwekwento and I feel like marami ka ng alam tungkol sakin pero ako, pangalan mo lang alam ko, first

    -Alex- I watched her as she walked towards inside the hotel. I watched her until she was out of my sight. All of a sudden ay napangiti nalang ako sabay iling. 'What a crazy encounter' I said to myself. I get inside my car and drive right away to the hotel I am staying in. It was just a few minutes drive kaya nakarating agad ako sa hotel. Unlike kanina na ako mismo kumuha ng kotse, I just drove in front of the hotel and let the valet park my car. I checked the time and it's already 12 noon. My meeting is 1:00 PM pa naman kaya I still have time to prepare. Nasa elevator na ako when I unconciously started to count how many hours Ally and I spent together. 13 hours. Well, technically it's just 6 hours for you minus the time we slept. Napailing naman ako sa ibang imahe at ideya ang nag flash sa isip ko when I thought about sleeping. Nang makarating na sa floor ko ang elevator, agad na akong nagmadaling pumasok sa kwarto at nagsimula ng mag prepare. There's nothing much to prepar

    It actually catches my attention on what Arthur is saying. Not because of the way how their story goes, well i'm also interested in that but, what caught my attention most is that the girl's name who helped was Allyson. Same name of my mysterious angel Ally. Now what?? Where did that 'mysterious angel' came from? and did I actually owned her by saying my?? This is not really a good sign, is it? "Allyson was a fine pretty lady. Just like i've said earlier, she's not the same of the 'escorts' we knew. She picks the events she wants to attend and usually she pick situations where she can help rather than just display yourself around." he continued. "I didn't really get it how she's different from the rest of the escorts. Because the way you say it, picking events to attend is just like picking richer and better men to pay you up. Situations she can help? Isn't that the reason they are hired? For men needs special help to relieve theirselves." I saw that Arthur wants to argue and exp

    -Xandra_ Natuod ako sa kinatatayuan ko sa sinabi niya. Wala akong maisip na maayos. Hindi ko mabuka ang bibig ko para magsalita at alam kong para akong ewan ngayon dahil sa nakatanga lang ako sa kanya. Paulit ulit sa isip ko ang tanong nya sakin. 'Can you be Mrs. Sarmiento?' 'Can you be Mrs. Sarmiento?' 'Can you be Mrs. Sarmiento?' 'Can you be Mrs. Sarmiento?' May gusto akong sabihin pero mukhang naumid ang dila ko sa tanong nya. Uminit naman ang ulo ko at ang mga pisngi ko ng makita ko syang nag smirk. "Are you playing with me??" Pagalit na tanong ko sa kanya. I did see a flash of desire in his eyes when I look at them pero nawala din agad ito at napalitan ng pagka aliw ang kislap ng mga mata niya. "I am sweety. And if I am, I am sure that you will be screaming my name already." I tilted my head side to side para ayusin ang pag iisip ko at iba na ang naririnig ko. "What did you say?" tanong ko sa kanya. He chuckled. Tumikhim naman sya bago tinuro ang sa may coffee table.

    _Xandra_ Maaga akong nagising kanina at umalis. I am opt to enjoy my day now by strolling on this country's beautiful streets. I wore a white halter top paired with fitted denim jeans. I got a nude half-way cardigan to go with my halter top and I wore my nude flat shoes also. I let my hair down today since parang behave naman sya ngayon at hindi buhaghag but I still bring my hairtie with me just in case. I am currently in a small cafe that screams elegance all over the place. Literal na aesthetic place talaga dito at ang lakas maka sina-unang panahon ang aura. Hindi naman gaanong crowded and place since maaga pa naman. There are only few people enjoying their coffee and minding their businesses here. "Like what you see?" I jokingly asked him while I browse on my phone. Kanina pa kami nandito sa isang cafe kung saan kami magkikita kita ni Alex at ng secretary nya.

    I was packing my luggage when I heard a knock on my door. Napatikhim muna ako bago pinapasok kung sino man na kumatok. "Pasok, bukas yan". Pumasok naman agad ang trusted secretary ko sa clinic na si Samantha. May dala dala syang mga papeles na nagpabuntong hininga naman sa akin. "I am very sorry doc. But ayokong maistorbo ka sa bakasyon mo kaya now palang, pirmahan mo na tong lahat para ako na'ng bahala dito." sabi nya sabay tawa na nang aasar. "You know that I trust you with these na so bakit mo pa dinala to dito Sammyy" I dramatically said. "Sisirain mo lang mood ko ehh!!" Pabagsak akong humiga sa kama na ikinatawa naman ni Sam. "Don't worry. Ako na'ng bahala sa lahat but these papers really need your signature. Yung iba pwede pa sana next week pero three weeks kang mawawala kaya now palang pirmahan mo na. Ako na muna magpapatuloy sa pag i-impaki mo" she said and nilagay nya sa may paanan ng kama ang mga kailangan kong pirmahan. "Ganito ba talaga kadami yung pipirmahan ko? Baki
