THE END

AIKKA's POV

After ng mga happenings na iyon, naging okay na ang lahat.

Weeks na rin ang lumipas. So I decided to come back in our company para makapagwork ulit.

We're on our way to Montero complex when a group of media surrounded us sa entrance pa lang ng drive way.

"what's going on?" shocked na asked ko kay Manong.

Seriously?

Di kaya, napagkakamalan na naman nilang sasakyan ito ni Nathan?

Don't tell me na may 'dating rumors' na naman kaya pinagkakaguluhan ulit siya ng mga reporters this time.

Shocks! I need to call him.

Agad kong kinuha ang aking phone para tawagan siya but he's out of coverage.

"Ma'am, na_nakakatakot po sila. Ano pong gagawin ko?" Manong Osle asked.

"just drive" I said.

"h_ha? masasagasaan po sila"

"hindi sila masasagasaan kasi tatabi sila Manong..so please, just drive" I said while still busy dialing Nathan's number.

Nagpatuloy na si Manong sa pagmamaneho until we reached the main entrance ng building.

But the media reporters quickly followed us, so papalabas pa lang ako ng sasakyan eh napalibutan na nila ako.

Peacock! hindi ba nila ako nakikita? I'm not Nathan!

Then everyone is taking pictures of me right now. Ano bang nangyayari?

"Miss Aikka Montero, we need to ask you some questions" I heard from one of the reporters.

Shocks! How did they know my name?

Tapos sabay-sabay na silang nagtanong.

"wait, papasukin niyo muna ako sa loob please" me trying to escape from them.

Until sa natahimik sila bigla..then somebody grabbed my hand at hinila ako papasok ng building.

(sighed)

I thought na mabubugbog ako ng mga wild reporters na iyon but thanks to this man, who helped me to get inside.

I looked at him to say thank you..but he looks familiar. Even when he's wearing a black hoodie and a mask on his face. Hindi ako pwedeng magkamali.

"Nathan?" sabi ko.

So he winked at me.

Para lang nangyari ulit 'yung time ng unang pagkikita namin dito sa loob ng company.

Then, tinanggal niya ang kanyang face mask at ibinaba ang hood niya.

Teka lang.....

Napalunok ako ng di oras kasi this time, wala na siyang beard and nagbago na rin siya ng hairstyle niya. He looked more decent right now and mas bagay sa kanya ang ganyang itsura.

"Ang gwapo talaga ng boyfie ko." nasabi ko while looking at him.

Then agad siyang lumapit sa mga media reporters kaya nagsimula na naman silang mag-ask ng questions.

"is that true that you're dating another girl right now?" some of the reporters asked.

"totoo din ba na that girl, according sa source namin ay boss mo Mr. Alejandro?"

Nanlaki ang mga mata ko dahil doon. How did they get those info? Who told them?

"and somebody said na girlfriend niyo na daw po si Miss Aikka Montero, is it true? Siya ba ang president nitong Montero Prime Holdings which is known to be one of the biggest company in the country? Can you answer us Mr. Alejandro?"

Peacock! How did they know about me?

I'm being stressed right now.

Kailangan na nilang umalis dito.

"guard, I don't want na magkaroon pa ng commotions mamaya so please, paalisin mo na ang mga media dito. Don't let them in okay?" I said.

"okay po ma'am" but before pa man nila mapaalis ang media.

Nathan answered their questions.

"all of those are not true!" he said in a loud voice.

Wait.

Did I heard it right? He is denying our relationship right now?

Why?

Shocks! I know na he's famous now but he promised me that he will be proud of our relationship no matter what. So, all I wanted to know this time was his reason why he's denying it? I mean, after everything that we've been through, ikakahiya niya ako?

Then suddenly, dahan-dahan na siyang lumalapit sa akin while smiling.

That smile. What is he trying to do?

"Aikka Montero" then he held my hand.

Napatakip tuloy ako ng bibig this time?

I feel something good right now.

"My Miss Perfect" tapos lumuhod siya in front of me.

Mukhang tama nga ang kutob ko.

"I_ I just wanted to let the whole world know how much I loved you and.....and I can't wait for more years to pass by before having a lifetime commitment with you.. that's why.....(then he nervously get the box of ring and opened it) that's why I'm doing it right now...so, ahm ... would you want to spend your life with me at maging Mrs. Alejandro in the future?" him.

Peacock! He's Proposing!

Gusto kong sumigaw tuloy sa kilig eh but somebody did it for me. I mean, everyone here are just so happy to see this moment. Even the medias and our employees.

Shocks Nathan, may padeny-deny pa siyang nalalaman kanina huh.

"so this is the reason kung bakit sinabi mong hindi totoo na girlfriend mo ako? dahil you're proposing right now?"

"parang ganon na nga" then he smiled.

"then what made you so sure that I will say yes? Mr. Nathan Alejandro?" me trying to make him more nervous this time bilang bawi ko sa ginawa niya kanina. Bwahaha.

"well, because I know that you love me and...I'm your first love" he said confidently instead.

"w_who told you about it?"

"your dad....so....I already had their blessings kaya ikaw na lang ang hinihintay ko, what's your answer to my question Miss President? Alam kong you didn't expect this but gusto ko lang masiguradong you're mine no matter what"

Napatawa tuloy ako sa kanya.

"Hay naku Mr. Nathan Alejandro, I'm all yours no matter what okay? so...hmmmm....sige na nga" I said in a pakipot way kasi deep inside, I'm really having a mixed emotion right now na para bang gusto kong ma-c.r this time.

"really? so, its a yes?"

Then I nodded.

"yess!!" then he happily stood up and hugged me.

Shocks! We're engaged na this time. And sobrang saya ko din because of it.

He's really full of surprises talaga.

"everyone! you got it right? She's my fiancee right now. We're engaged!" he proudly said to the reporters.

Kaya they're taking pictures of us right now. Celebrity lang ang peg ko this time. Haha.

Napalingon ako sa taas, alam kaya ni dad ang nangyayari dito sa groundfloor ngayon?

Then, I didn't expect to see him blending in with the crowd.

"dad" nasambit ko and he smiled at me when he noticed that I'm looking at him this time.

"let's go my future wife, I know na gusto ka nang makausap ni Chairman. I actually told him about this" Nathan said while holding my hand this time.

"ah...so it means that, pinatawag mo talaga ang media for this proposal?" nasabi ko.

"yes, para makita rin ng mga kaibigan mo and ni Spade" then he smiled.

"okay?"

"by the way, I think you also need to know about this" him while papasok na kami ng elevator.

"about what?" curious ko namang ask.

"na...ikaw din ang first love ko" he said.

"yah, matagal ko nang alam iyon kasi...ako naman talaga ang kauna-unahang babaeng niligawan mo" I said.

"yeah, you're right." he smiled.

"sayang lang, hindi ako ang first kiss mo...sa dinami-dami ba namang babaeng dinate mo" I said while pouting my lips.

"so...does it mean ba na ako ang magiging first kiss mo?" masayang ask niya.

Bah! masaya pa siya huh? akala niya makakalamang siya. Pwes, akala lang niya iyon. Haha.

"hindi rin" I said while trying not to smile.

"ibig sabihin ba nito na si_"

"you're right, Spade was my first kiss" I said.

Nang sabihin ko iyon, naramdaman kong he's jealous right now. Haha..ang cute niya talagang tingnan kapag nagseselos and I never saw him being jealous again, that's why, I'm doing it right now. Haha!

"sa bagay, siya rin naman ang naging first boyfriend mo" mahinang sabi niya.

"hindi pa nagiging kami noon. Actually, noong highschool pa tayo that time"

Me hiding my smile na. Kasi kitang-kita ko na ang jealous face niya. Haha!

(thug gf, ay fiancee pala.)

"what?!!!" gulat na sabi niya.

"yes, ang bagal mo kasi eh. Kaya naunahan ka niya" me

Bigla siyang natahimik this time. Napapaisip siguro siya sa mga sinabi ko.

"but don't worry Nathan, siya man ang naging first kiss ko o naging first boyfriend ko, blessed ka pa rin kasi ikaw naman ang naging the "only one ko" at ang magiging forever one ko." bawi ko naman.

After I said it, he smiled at hinila ako papalapit sa kanya. Omo. Bumibilis ang heartbeat ko.

Kami lang kasi dito sa loob...

Shocks!

"Aikka, I'll teach you what real kiss is"

Then gently, he kissed me.

He kissed me inside the elevator.

Shocks! that was awesome but a little bit embarrassing kasi everytime na magbubukas ang elevator, it feels awkward kasi nakikita ko ang reaction ng mga employees na nagugulat din because of what they're seeing.

Peacock!

But I'm really happy this time, magiging Mrs. Alejandro na ako in the near future!

"I love you Miss Perfect" Nathan then said to me.

"I love you too Mr. Perfect"
