" Huh?' nagtatakang lumapit ito sa kanya.

" See?!" he saw two necklaces on MM's hands.

" Awww, the necklaces." He remembered the necklaces. He told MM na s secong time na mapunta sila dito they would but it. " Let's pay." sabi nito.

Sa counter, " Taylor Lautner? Di makapaniwalangsabi ng american girl sa counter. Ngumiti lang si Tee. " Can I take a picture with you?" excited na tanong nito sa kanya. " Sure." ngiting sabi nito. " Miss can you take a picture for the two of us?" tanong nito. " O-ok." tanging sabi ni MM.

Matapos ang picture taking, binigay ni MM and necklaces na bibilin niya. Tinignan ito ng babae. Nakita niya ang nakalagay, " I♥M " 


"Have someone special?" tanong ng babae kay MM ng maibigay nito ang sukli. Tumango siya. Special din naman kasi sa kanya si Tee. 


" This please." sabi ni Tee habang binibigay ang necklace. " I♥T " 


" For who?" tanong ng babae ng maibigay ang sukli.


Ngumiti lang si Tee. " Ems, here it is." tinaas ni MM ang buhok niya at inilagay ni Tee ang necklace "I♥T " sa kanya. 


" Here." nilagay ni MM ang " I♥M " na necklace kay Tee.


" Thanks Miss!" pagpapaalam ng dalawa.


Naiwang nanlaki ang mata ng babae.


Dumating ang mga kaibigan. " What did you buy?" mataray na tanong ni Emily. Nakita ni MM na may mga 3 o 4 na shopping bags na hawak si DD.


" We bought necklaces." mas lumapit siya kay MM at hinawakan ang shoulder nito.  " Can I see?" excited na tanong ni Ann. " Awww, so sweet! Like couples! I heart M and I heart T! So cute!!!" kinikilig na wika ni Ann.


" Dee, Emily, do you and DD have? Your a couple for like a month and nearly two. What did you getfor your 1st monthsary???" tanong ni MM.


Nangiti ni Ann. " Nice question Ian!" Ann whispered to him. 


" NO probs!!" sabi nito...

" Paparazzi! Let's go!" sabi ni Tee. NIlingon ni MM ang paligid bago tuluyang makapasok sa sasakyan.


FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!


" That was definitely a wrong move!" sabi ni Tee sa kanya.


RING! RING! RING!

" Hello tita?" MM talked. " What?! Really??? Pero-" pinutol si MM ng kausap niya sa kabilang linya. " Happy naman po ako..." she said. " But how about school?" tanong nito. " Sige po Tita. Bye. Take care." she said.

" What was that?"tanong ni Tee.

" Oh it's DD's mom." MM said.

" Then..." sabi ni Tee.

" Can I ask you a favor?" she whispered.

Nakikinig mabuti si Tee sa ibinubulong ni MM. " What's the problem with that? Aren't you happy you're going to c-" tinakpan ni MM ang bibig nito.

" What is it?" nagtatakang tanong ni DD.

" Nothing DD. Don't mind us." palusot ni Tee.

" Are you sure?" he turned and whispered to MM.

Tumango lang ito.

" Guys, I think let's postpone our trip to San Francisco later. Let's just stay here." sabi ni Devon.

Kumakain sila ng breakfast. " Why?" tanong ni Ann.

" Well I think the hotel is hosting an event. I think we are needed here." sagot ni Tee.

" Including you?" gulat na tanong ni DD.

" Yeah, why not?" mataray na sagot ni MM.

" Tee, later let's go out and buy clothes." masayang sabi ni MM.

" Ian, Ann, Fretz, Bret, Sam, you can join us." sabi ni MM.

" And us?" nakataas ang isang kilay ni DD.

" I thought you have a date today with Emily... So you go with her. Not us." mataray na sagot ni MM.

" What do you want to buy Ems?" tanong sa kanya ni Ann sa kotse.

" Well I want to buy a gown." sagot naman ni MM.

" Why gown?" tanong naman ni Fretz.

" For the event." sagot nitong muli.

" Gown talaga ah! bongga naman nun!" Tili ni Fretz.

" I'll choose your gown! Dapat ikaw ang pinaka-bongga!" sabi naman ni Ann.

" Sure!"  ngiting sambit ni MM.

" Miss, have you seen Taylor Lautner and the girl with her?" tanong ni Sam.

" Oh sir, they went to the other shop to buy something. But they said if you choosed already, just leave it and he will pay. They paid for Ms. Monteverde's gown." sabi ni babae.

But she can clearly see that it's her and his hands.) It is also said that the actor bought her a necklace. Is the actor and girl a couple???

" Uh-oh, sorry Ems!" malungkot na sabi ni Tee.

" It's ok Tee!" ngiting sabi niya.
