Sorry for the late update.
I've been very busy lately.
Here's Chapter 19...

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]
