(A/N: Hello-Hello readers, I'm back for good (atleast for two weeks) and im sorry if i made you guys wait for quite long now. Finals was just terrible and i needed to set my priorities. anyhow, I might say .. but i couldn't promise i'll update everyday now just drop your commets and vote this chap up so that i'll know what my readers and lurkers think about it. again, thank you for the patience you've put .. 

this chap is somehow, tilted from what i originally outlined it to be. nonethless, hope you enjoy)





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~





 I hurriedly went down the hall and didn’t even mind that my pumps were now squeaking badly and had been making quite few hard sounds for the first seconds i walked down against the naked tiled floor.








I met few eyes along the way. Some were curious, Some were bored and some were even flashing their Cheshire grin at me for no apparent reason --- or maybe there is a reason..




I sighed while a thought came into my mind




“I miss you,Nina


- MGE“








It took me long uneven breathing before I finally sat on my table and lied down the folders that I need to look over with on that very day.








There were bulks of them right on the side but they seem to be invisible when I caught sight with the familiar-to-my-eyes bouquet of pink carnations right next to the cup of coffee that I suspected Luigi must’ve complied with






Not again I thought habang nakakunot ang noo ko.  








“Wow. May balak yatang tayuan ka ng garden dito mismo sa desk mo,Nina.. its has been almost everyday!”


 ang sabi ng officemate kong si Jesse nang bigla siyang lumitaw from nowhere ..she stood right next to my table as she had her hand entwined from her back








wala namang akong imik ng tiningnan ko ang note sa bouquet. I was expecting another cheesy (for Jesse) but annoying (for me, ofcourse) note with it.







It has always been like that for quite some time now. It would either be “Im thinking of you“, a “I miss having my arms around you“ or a “My hand felt its emptiness right now“






 but now it was quite different than usual. 
 It was instead




“I’ll see you tonight“







and surprisingly, he did not conceal his name with his initial this time ‘round. He ,purposely (as what I’d like to think he did), attached his complete name right down below the message






“-Marc Gerard Enriquez“






napakunot tuloy ang noo ko when i didn't catch the message








 and what does he exactly meant by  I’ll see you tonight? i thought while i saw Jesse sneaking from my side as she attempted to peeking on the note








I immediately crumpled the note and threw it from the bin ignoring the obvious gasp coming from Jesse's exaggerating mouth








"how could you crumple that?" ang sabi niya while she lowered herself to me as if trying to whisper and to calm her down from her usual annoying-as-fourteen-year-old's high-pitched voice







"what?" ang sabi ko while i innocently smiled at her. She doesn't have a clue of what kinda douchebag you-know-who is








"don't what me Nina .. that poor little guy  put much of his efforts just so he could send you those die-hard notes coming from his heart. how could you be so heartless and just throw it as if it didn't matter? he's sending .." she stopped when she started counting in her finger trying her very best to remember how many were those that was sent on top of my desk








"11 bouquets that i think must've cost him quite a ... a...sum!" She finally let out  that usual voice of hers and a lot of heads in that room turned to our direction..









it was awkward silence first before she awkwardly smiled to everyone and said "sorry"
