Jill POV

"Miss Jillian, punta daw po tayo sa conference room sabi ni Mr. Cruz. May meeting daw po." my officemate called me. Tumango ako at sumunod ako sakaniya papuntang coference room.

"Good morning everyone!" Mr. Cruz greeted us.

"I'm going to a family trip starting tomorrow. My nephew will be the one who will take my place while I am gone." he added.

"Sir, bat hindi nalang kaya, mag break nalang din kame!" Jake said.

"Haha gustuhin ko man pero, may isa pa tayong client. And need na matapos in a few weeks. Wag kayong mag alala, pag nasiyahan yung client sa gawa natin, magoouting tayo lahat!" sambit niya at nagpalakpakan kaming lahat.

"KAYA IDOL KITA EH!" one of them shouted.

"Sir, Mr. Sanchez is here." his secretary said at binukas yung pinto.

S-sanchez?

"Good morning everyone!" someone shouted at napalingon kaming lahat sa pinto.

"Sandro!" Mr. Cruz said.

"Tito!"

"You're right on time. We were just talking about you."

"Eveyone, this is Sandro Sanchez, my nephew."

"You sure you can handle this while I'm away?" dagdag niya.

"Of course naman. And besides, I'm planning to start my own company soon, para ma practice nadin ako." he answered and Mr. Cruz patted him at the back.

Flop sana yang magiging company mo.

"Ok well I have to go na. Magreready pako. Goodluck nalang Sandro! Bye everyone!" pagpaalam ni Mr. Cruz and they waved goodbye to him as he walks out to the door.

We went back to our desks at ginawa yung mga kailangan naming gawin. Ginawa kona yung pinapagawa ng client habang marami pang oras. Last week lang ito inannounce then sabi ni Mr. Cruz na dapat by the end of the month dapat tapos na ito. 

"Ms. Jillian, Mr. Sanchez wants you to go the his office." his assistant called me. I went to check kung sa office ba ni Mr. Cruz siya nagstay pero wala siya doon.

"Looking for someone?" someone asked as I was checking Mr. Cruz's office at napalingon ako. It was Jake.

"Jake.. Yes, I'm looking for Mr. Sanchez. Alam moba kung nasaan office niya?" tanong ko.

"Doon sa 3th (iykyk) floor, katabi ng Manager's office." he answered at tumango ako.

*knocks*

"Come in" he responded.

"You are calling me daw? What do you want?"

"Tapos naba yung pinapagawa ni Tito sayo?"

"It was given to me last week lang, syempre hindi pa. By the end of the month palang naman daw yung deadline."

'Woah woah woah Ms Jillian. What's with the attitude? Baka nakakalimutan mong, boss mo ako ngayon."

"Ginagawa ko napo ngayon, pero pinatawag niyo po kasi ako. So if we are done talking, can I go back to my desk at ipagptuloy yung ginagawa ko?"

"Ok, you can go now." 

Umalis nako ng kwarto niya at punong puno ng sama ng loob. Bakit siya pa kasi yung ginawang kapalit. LORD!!

After a few hours, I went home na. Nakalahati ko palang yung ginagawa ko so baka either next week or by the end of the week, matatapos kona ito. I waited outside the building for Ate Aiks dahil siya daw susundo saakin. 15 minutes away lang naman from here yung office niya so hindi naman ako maghihintay ng matagal.

"Ms. Jillian, do you wanna ride?" Sandro opened his car window.

"No, thanks."

"Don't be maarte, ako nalang nga itong nag ooffer."

Conyo.

"May sundo naman po ako. Padating nadin yun" I replied

" Just come i-" Sandro was bout to open the car door nang may biglang bumisina sa likod. Hindi naman ata ito yung sasakyan ni Ate Aika. Nakaalis naman na lahat ng officemates ko kanina.

"Jill!" she shouted. I can't see her dahil against the light siya. Nung nakalapit lapit na siya, I saw Ate Trish.

"Ate.." 

"Let's go, Mama and Ate Aiks are at the resto na."

"Ohh the 2nd daughter is here." paninimula ni Sandro.

"What are you doing here?" Ate asked.

"I was just offering Ms. Jillian here a ride."

"Well now, her Ate is here, she doesn't need it. At baka may masama kapang binabalak na gawin." she said. She grabbed my hand at sumakay na kami ng sasakyan. 

"Are you ok. Jill?" she asked while driving.

"Yeah."

"Ayaw moba talagang mag work from home nalang? Or mag break muna. Baka ano pang gawin sayo nun"

"I want  to. Kaso may client pa kami and importanteng importante to kay Mr. Cruz. Malaking project to, kaya malaki din ibabayad saamin. So hindi to pwedeng pumalkpak." I responded and she nodded.

Pumunta na kami sa restaurant na pinareserve ni Mama. Hindi naman masyadong malayo from the office. Nung nakarating na kami doon, hinanap na namin ni Ate Trish sila. We asked the waitress if alam ba nila kung nasaan sila, then tinuro niya saamin yung isang closed room. We went there at nakita nanga namin sila na nandoon.

"Ma! Ate Aiks!" I shouted as I open the door.

"Jill, Trish, andito na pala kayo." sambit ni Mama. Umupo na kami ni Ate Trish sa mga upuan. Paikot yung table kaya si Mama at Ate Trish yung katabi ko.

"Ang tagal naman ng food. Trish, picturan mo muna ako dali" utos ni Ate Aiks

"Ayoko nga." sagot naman niya.

"Dali, isang  picture lang naman eh. Picturan din kita." sambit niya. Tumango si Ate Trish sabay nag buntong-hininga.

"Ako din!" saway ko at biglang dumating yung mga pagkain habang nagpipicturean sila.

"Let's eat!" Mama said at sabay sabay na kaming kumain. 

After a few minutes of eating, natapos na kami. Marami rami rin kaming nakain dahil masarap yung sineserve nilang food. 

"Busog nako." sambit ko.

"So, who's gonna pay?" tanong ni Mama.

"Syempre ikaw, ikaw yung nag aya"

"Ay hinde, kung sino pinaka maraming nakain" sagot ni Mama.

"Hati-hati nalang" sambit ko 

"Magkano ba yung bill?" Ate Trish asked

"I'll pay" dagdag niya

"4,800"

"Ay sige, tama sabi ni Jill, hati hati nalang" saway niya ata natawa kaming lahat. We agreed na hati hati nalang dahil medyo pricey din. After we paid, sumakay na kami sa sasakyan. I was with Ate Trish while Ate Aiks is with Mama.

"Want mo makinig ng music?" tanong ni Ate Trish.

"Yeah sure." I responded.

"Holiday nga pala bukas, visit tayo kay y/n?" she asked while scrolling to her phone.

"Pwede naman, pero wala kabang duty tomorrow?" 

"Wala naman. Plus dumadami nadin yung mga doctor sa ospital so marami rin pwedeng mag sub saakin." she answered and I nodded. 

*One way or another intro started to play*

"Ate.." I said nung narinig ko yung intro.

"Yes? Favorite natin to nung bata pa tayo diba?" sagot niya at natawa ako nung naalala ko yung video na ginawa namin noon.

"One way or another, I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya, get ya, get ya
One way or another, I'm gonna win ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya, get ya, get ya"

"One way or another, I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meet ya, meet ya, meet ya, meet ya
One day, maybe next week
I'm gonna meet ya, I'm gonna meet ya, I'll meet ya"

"I will drive past your house
And if the lights are all down
I'll see who's around
Let's go!"

We started to dance

"Ate Trish.. Oh my god naaalala ko!" I said habang tumatawa

"I will drive past your house
And if the lights are all down
I'll see who's around
Let's go!"

"And if the lights are all out

"One, two, three, four"

"I wanna hold you, wanna hold you tight
I wanna hold you, wanna hold you tight
I wanna hold you, wanna hold you tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night
C'mon"

We listen and listen to different songs pa. Taylor swift, BTS, Eraserheads, etc. We arrived at  the condo na. We saw Mama and Ate Aika na nagaayos na ng pantulog kaya nag ayos nadin kami.

"Good night everyone!" pagpaalam ko bago ako pumasok ng kwarto. 

The next morning, sabay na kaming pumunta ni Ate Trish sa ospital to visit y/n. Pero iniwan niya muna ako saglit dahil may aasikasuhin daw siya. 

"Good Morning Hub!" pag bati ko kay y/n pagkabukas ko ng pinto niya.

"Umalis muna si Ate Trish since may aasikasuhin muna daw siya. Pero babalik din yun later."

"Nga pala, nagbakasyon muna yung boss namin for a week." I said at umupo ako sa tabi niya.

"Tapos, si Sandro yung pinalit."

"Sana andito ka para naman masuntok mona siya, Chz baka mawalan pako ng trabaho niyan"

"Mag wfh sana ako kaso 1 week lang naman kaya no need na. Iwas iwasan ko nalang siguro siya."

I was looking at y?n while rubbing his/her hand. I started singing. 

"Return to a land called paraiso
A place where a dying river ends"

"No birds dare fly over paraiso
No space allows them to endure
The smoke that screens the air
The grass that's never there"

"And if I could see a single bird
What a joy!
I try to write some words and create
A simple song to be heard by the rest of the

"I live in a land called paraiso
In a house made of cardboard floors and walls
I learned to be free in paraiso"

"Free to claim anything I see
Matching rags for my clothes
Plastic bags for the colds"

"And if empty cans were all I have
What a joy!
I never fight to take someone else's coins
and live with fear like the rest of the boys"

"Paraiso, help me make a stand
Paraiso, take me by the hand
Paraiso, make the world understand"

"That if I could see a single bird
What a joy!
This tired and hungry land could expect
Some truth and hope and respect
From the rest of the world"

"Jill" someone knocked at the door and I opened it. I saw Ate Aika and Ate Trish standing there bringing some food.

"Umiiyak kaba?" Ate Trish asked.

"Uh, no." I responded.

"Come in" sambit ko at tumabi sa pinto to give them way.

Y/n POV (Fake world)

"Moon, let's go!" she shouted

"Coming!" I responded. 

As I was about to go inside of the car, my scar started to hurt.

"Are you ok?" she asked and I nodded.

While I was driving, I started to hear a familiar voice, echoing.

"D-do you hear that?" I asked.

"Hear what?"

"That. Parang may kumakantang babae."

"Anong kinakanta?"

"I hear... I hear, Paraiso."
