Sorry for the late update. I've been very busy lately. Here's Chapter 19... [b] CHAPTER 19:[/b] After writing, I turned on the TV hoping for a little bit enlightenment... Wow, [i]ang lalim nun ah[/i]... "As you can see, this product can make your skin whiter and healthier in 7 days! So, what are you waiting for? Call now at---" Eer... I hate commercials. They're nothing but a bunch of lies! "Anna, can you come here for a minute?" "Sure, I'm coming..." "There's a note for you..." Hmm, let me guess, it's from... "Michael." What? "Michael? The note came from [b]MICHAEL[/b]?" Michael, huh? Oh, you can't be serious. I thought note-giving was Ken's thing. I never thought MICHAEL would give one. "Yup. Why do you sound so shocked? You've received lots of notes before. " "Yeah, but most of them were from Ken. I never thought Michael would, you know, actually give me one." "Oh, OK. " "So, what does it say sis?" "I don't know. It's for you, anyway. I'm not supposed to read it. " "Oh, yeah. I forgot. Let's see what this note has to say..." [quote][b]Dear Anna,[/b] I'm sorry if I had you stressing out. I didn't mean for it to happen. But I [b]DO[/b] love you Anna, and I know you don't feel the same way, but... [b]No matter what happens, I'll always be there for you. [/b] [b]Michael[/b][/quote] Aaw, how sweet! "So, what did he say?" "Just read it... " [b][a few minutes later...][/b] "Whoa... Michael [s]likes[/s] loves you?" "Well, umm-- Yeah... Heehee... " "Gawd! Well, what about you? Do you like him too?" "Well, maybe, umm, yes... Well, I meant no, but I guess--- " Eer, Anna... You better think of a good answer... "OMG! You do! You're blushing!" "Can you stop shouting? The neighbors will hear you! " "Haha... Sorry... Got carried away... But wait... What about Raf?" "I love Raf, I like Michael. There [b]IS[/b] a [b]DIFFERENCE[/b]!" "OK, whatever you say, sis. " ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [b][2 hours later, in the same cafe][/b] "Hi Miss Anna. What will you have?" "Tea please. " "Sure, coming right up. " What am I going to do? Eer, the nightmare looks as if it really [b]IS REAL![/b] [b][lady walks up][/b] "Excuse me miss." "Yes?" "Are you Anna?" "Yup. Who are you?" "I'm Nicole... I'm [b]MICHAEL'S GIRLFRIEND[/b]." WTH?!!! Michael has a GF?!!! "Well, um, nice to meet you..." [i] Ano na gagawin ko? Lalo lang dumagdag problema ko. May Girlfriend na pala si Michael?!! [/i] "Hi Anna. Nice to finally meet you." "What? You already know about me?" "Oh, sure. Michael talks about you [b]ALL THE TIME[/b]." "He does?" "Yup. " Wow... I feel so... [b]GUILTY[/b]. "Oh... I see. " "Listen, I know what Michael feels for you, and I understand. Just promise me, [b]YOU'LL TAKE CARE OF HIM[/b], OK?" "But wait? I don't like---" "I need to go... " Ouch... That must've hurt... "I'm sorry Nicole! I didn't mean for these thing to happen." "I know, me neither. " [b]What kind of trouble did I get myself into?[/b]
