Emerald's POV

I opened the door of the studio and went inside.

My manager said that i have a photoshoot today.

Pag-pasok ko sa loob ay agad kong ibinaba ang gamit ko.

"Go, get change." My manager said.

Dali-dali naman akong pumunta sa fitting room, at isinuot ang damit.

Pag-labas ko ng fitting room ay nahagip ng paningin ko ang isang pamilyar na lalaki.

He was sitting on the chair, naka-bihis narin siya.

I looked at him to confirm who he is.

"Jiven Vasquez?" I asked to confirm.

"Hey, long time no see." He smiled at me.

"Omg, hey." I greeted him.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I'm your partner for this shoot." He smiled.

I nodded and went infront of the camera to start the shoot.

He followed me as well.

Jiven, the son of the owner of the school i went in college.

We became close friends, until we graduated.

We lost communication when i went here, in korea.

"Pose." The camera man said.

I started posing for a better result.

The shoot finished.

I went to the fitting room to change my clothes, into the one i was wearing the time i get here.

Pag-labas ko ay nandun pa rin si Jiven.

"Hindi ka pa ba uuwi?" Tanong ko sakanya.

"Uuwi na, i was just waiting for you, maybe we could eat outside? Since it's been so long when we last hanged out." He shrugged.

I smiled at him.

"Sure, let's go?" Pag-aaya ko.

Sakto namang bumukas ang pinto ng studio.

Pumasok ang isang matangkad na lalaki.

"Hey." He greeted me with his warm smile.

"H-hey." I said stuttering.

"Your boyfriend?" Jiven asked.

I looked at Jiven.

I immediately turn my gaze to Carlisle.

I don't know how to say this to Jiven, they don't know that i have a husband back then in college.

"N-no." I answered.

Carlisle's expression turned into a confused one, but suddenly changed into a cold one.

"You forgot these ma'am, but it seems like you won't be needing these anymore." He was referring to the lunch box he was holding.

He immediately tossed it in the trash.

"I'm her driver, sorry to disturb you." He fake smiled before leaving.

I was about to go stop him, but Jiven held my arm.

"Hey, let's go." He said.

Wala na'kong nagawa kun'di ang sumunod nalang.

Carlisle's POV

Ansakit pala.

Yung itanggi ka ng mahal mo.

I felt jealousy and pain.

I went straight to my car, and started the engine.

I can see the car Emerald went to, driving away.

I won't stalk them.

I'll let them have fun.

Seems like she's happy with him. Okay lang. Bagay sila.

I drove straight to my condo.

I opened the door of my condo, and caught Luis sitting on my sofa.

"Oh? Mukhang bad trip ka 'ata ngayon?" He asked, while he's eating his meal.

"Emerald, denied me." I can see that he dropped his utensils, and covered his mouth in shock.

"Aguy." He spoke.

I glared at him.

"Anyare? Bakit daw? Baka naman may dahilan." He said trying to make me feel better.

"Ewan ko." I answered.

I went straight to my bed, and laid down.

I immediately drove off to sleep.

Emerald's POV

Bumaba ako mula sa kotse ni Jiven.

I'm infront of Carlisle's condo.

I need to explain.

"Thank you for today, take care." Paalam ko kay Jiven.

I immediately went inside the building and went straight to the elevator.

Once i've reached the 5th floor, i run through the hallway to reach his unit.

Once i've reached it, i stopped by the door, and went in.

There's no one in the living room.

So i went straight to his bedroom. There i saw him sleeping at his bed.

I went near him, and caressed his cheeks.

Agad siyang nagising sa ginawa ko.

He move a little to avoid my touch.

Ouch.

"Love." I called him.

He doesn't respond.

"I'm sorry, let me explain please?" I sighed.

"I just... don't know how to tell Jiven that i have a husband. He might found out that i have a husband back then, when i was in college." I explained.

He turned his face to me, and sat up.

"So? Are you embarrassed of having me?" He asked raising his right brow.

"No, it's not like that." I held his hands.

"I just don't know how to say it. I'm sorry, love." I apologize.

He sighed.

"Apology, not accepted." He rolled his eyes at me.

I pouted at him.

He saw my expression.

He sighed.

"Kiss muna." He said in a serious tone.

I smiled and went near him to kiss him.

"Porket marupok ako sa'yo, you're taking advantage." He once again rolled his eyes.

I chuckled at his behavior.

"Wag na magalit." I chuckled.

"Who's that by the way?" He asked.

"My friend, back then in college." I answered.

His eyes widened.

"Is he that guy who called you dumpling?" He asked.

I nodded.

"That fucker." He said, that made me chuckle.
