“Witch! Are you okay? You’ve been staring off into space for a while now!” I heard the gay guy beside me speak, so I gave him a dirty look. He’s talking as if he’s deaf, is he trying to pick a fight? “Stop it, Carlo, you’re annoying me, you witch.” I chuckled at what I said, seeing the disgust on his face upon hearing his real name. “Eww sister! Give me the creeps, please? This nuisance, it’s Carla, not Carlo! Shut up! I’ll scratch you!” He shouted and even raised his hand with long nails, which made me laugh even more. It’s been three days since the incident with Alex, he’s back at work, but we’re still not talking. I know I did something wrong, who am I to stop him? I just got carried away, I’m afraid that history will repeat itself, maybe I’ll just talk to him on my next day off. I just sighed. Another guy. After what happened, I don’t know how to casually talk to him anymore, I really want to slap him. It’s Monday today, which means it’s the first day for all the people I inte

“My heart suddenly raced abnormally. It’s hard to be straightforward sometimes, it can be dangerous. I was about to respond when my phone suddenly rang. It was right beside me, so I quickly answered to see who it was.“Hello?” It was noisy on the other line, people were shouting.[Wiiiiitccch! Where are you?! Why didn’t you come to work? Oh my gosh! Did you run away? I thought you didn’t have a boyfriend?”]I chuckled at what he said, it was Jaycee being Jaycee, such a flirt. It made me forget the nervousness I felt earlier.“I’m okay, I’ll tell you when we see each other. Why is it so noisy?”[“The girls are excited. There’s a new guy in the other department, they say he’s handsome.”]I don’t remember hearing about a new guy. I’ll probably ask about it when I get to the office.“Okay, see you later. I might take a half day off.” I replied, just to get away from the situation and prepare to go to work.[“Okay, take care, okay? Love you! Mwa!”]I smiled at what he said, he’s so cute wh

Four years ago “The rain is really strong, is there a typhoon?” I stopped writing in my notes and looked out the window, the rain was indeed strong. With all the things we’re doing, I don’t know anymore what the weather is like these days. It’s Friday afternoon, almost five o’clock, but it’s very cold and dark, this will be the last month of the first semester of the second year, time flies, there’s more work to be done. “I don’t know, we have so much to do, I haven’t watched the news for days.” I answered and wrote again. “Did you finish the draft for our research? We need to finish that so we can submit it.” I reminded her, I’m almost done with the notes I’ll use for reviewing later, it’s our finals next week, then completion of requirements. “Yes, I’m almost done, I’ll send it to you tonight, you can just edit it, Jem and the others have finished their part.” I just nodded in response, because I’m really busy with my notes. “How’s my baby doing?” She asked absentmindedly, looki

“Is everyone here?” President asked us, he also joined our team building today, “Okay, let’s do the head count.” He said, and we started the headcount.There are forty-three of us in total, from three departments, the meeting place is in front of the company, and the meeting time is three o’clock, luckily almost no one was late, except me of course, it seems like it’s my hobby to be late, I just can’t seem to be at ease if I’m not late for any of my appointments. I just laughed at what I said, I really seem crazy with what I’m doing.We chose Zambales for our team building, I’m not very familiar with it even when I used to live here in Zambales, I was mostly just at home and school, I wasn’t in the mood to go out, it was rare, because I don’t usually go this far, so I’m somehow excited. I’ll be able to rest too.I put on my sunglasses before we got out of the van, our trip took about four hours from the company to here, and it wasn’t really that tiring, we rented a van that knows the

“Hey, they said it’s time to eat, let’s go out.” Alex pulled me, Jaycee was with him, both of them had big grins on their faces, so I just rolled my eyes at them. After the game earlier, we agreed to go around, but I didn’t really go around, I just took pictures of the places we passed by. “What was that earlier, huh? Mr. Handsome was giving you kisses!” Alex teased, so I elbowed him. “Ouch!! That hurts, you witch!” He shouted and pulled my hair. “I love you, Ahhhhhhhh!!! Creepy!! Your panties are wet!” JC teased, even though I was annoyed, I still laughed, JC was always like this, no filter, embarrassing, someone might hear us while we’re walking. “But seriously, why are you avoiding each other when it’s obvious that you have a past? Are you playing hard to get? Do you think you’re pretty?” He said and playfully pulled my hair, so I slapped him and pushed him away, “Ouch, you’re so mean! Don’t tell me you think you’re prettier than me!” This guy won’t stop. “So, what’s the catch?” T
