" Red roses and few green fillers for tomorrow. " Jerry proudly smiled as he showed his newly - arranged bouquet.

" Don't forget your spy pen and find a good angle. "

"Got it. "

At ten in the morning, Jerry knocked again at Jia's office. And as usual, his smile was as bright as the shade of the red roses which glowed in its freshness. In his shirt pocket, was the black spy pen he always brought everytime he delivered the flowers.

"Good morning, Miss Jia! Another set of beautiful flowers, freshly picked - up from April's Garden. "

"Really? You also have a garden? You don't rely on suppliers only ? "

" Yes. We have a flower farm in Busay. " His smile never left his face as he replied.

"April is a lady's name. I wonder how is she related to you..." She smiled as she tried to tease him.

"No, ma'am, it is not related to me. The name is related to the real owner of this flower shop. I am only his trustee. "

"Then how is it related to the

owner? Is she a man or a woman?"

The more Jia got curious. When Jerry first introduced himself, he told her that he owned and personally managed the flower shop.

"A man."

"You're not answering my first question yet. " She laughed.

" He named it April because.....it is the birth month of someone

special. "

Jia gaped in surprise as her heart was caressed with that wonderful feeling of being flattered. He never mentioned about this flower shop though she knew that this was his grandmother's business before. She wouldn't wonder if he did since she knew that flower arrangement was one of his skills. This man was just too full of surprises!

And her birthday, indeed, fell on the month of April.

" Jer, by the way, I know he's here already. "

Jerry knitted his brows wondering what she meant.

" I saw his wife at the clinic yesterday. I learned that they're soon having a baby. " She smiled, pretending to look happy for him.

Jerry became speechless. He was totally confused. If his boss was already married, did it mean that she was her other woman?

Anthon was in his room while he watched the video that Jerry sent to him this morning. For two years, this became his routine. Through this way, he could still see her at a distance. And through this way, he could still remind her that he cared.

He left because Jia needed a space. She needed enough time to mourn for Jim. She needed a long time to heal. His presence would not help her forget but would only aggreviate her sense of guilt.

He got amused at her presumption that Anna became his wife. Just because he wondered how she felt when she saw her. Was she still hurting the way she was towards Giselle? Or the way she was when she poured it out through her song?


Yet, the thing that made him anxious all the while was how that long span of two years changed their hearts.

Everyone: (' Like' sign )

Brian: See you then, everyone!

Giselle posted then the sequence of the program to remind everyone's task during the most awaited event.

Giselle: @Jia, please don't forget!

Jia: No problem to that. Just be my proxy.

Then everyone went into commotion.

Jia, welcome back!

Jia, finally you're back!

How are you, Jia? It's been a long while...

Are you married?

Finally, the long - awaited class reunion of Section Jade had come. Jian's Paradise was buzzing with excitement. Strong, multi - colored lights illuminated the place, casting

rainbow shades to the elegant dresses of the attendees. The loud, sweet music in the air blazed up the embers inside the pounding hearts of those who had bittersweet memories of their high school years. Yellings of hi's and hello's circulated until all of them were wrapped up into a heightened sensation of thrill and excitement.

Jia arrived just as the program was about to start. She wore a sleeveless, little black dress and a pair of shiny, old - rose pumps. Although the design of her outfit was just too plain, the way it hugged her beautiful curves as its hem fell above her knees , attracted everyone's attention. Remembering her in high school days, they never thought Jia could be this sexy!

Since the lady of the ceremony was already welcoming everyone , she was spared from the task of greeting all of them individually. She picked up a seat by the nearest table from the entrance and immediately gave her full attention to the current speaker. Though wearing a smile continously, she never dared to look on her right nor left, much more to the back. All because she was still expecting that Anthon would be there. Those two years he had been away, made her feel so awkward even with just a single thought about him.

After the welcome remarks of Jay as the class president, Jia's intermission song followed. She walked up to the stage gracefully, giving her sweet and gentle smile at everyone as she looked around.

Soon, the music flowed out into the air. A welcome round of applause then filled the atmosphere, making Jia's heart pound louder. She closed her eyes and breathed deeply to calm down her hammering heartbeats. She couldn't tell why. She had sung before a crowd for so many times, but why was she so shaky tonight?
