“Well boss, I guess it’s just you and me ” I said.
“As much as I want to fire you, I do need company. Let’s ride that scary ride over there!” He exclaimed.
“Ha! I bet you can’t even ride that with eyes open” I teased.
“Oh yeah?” –running towards the ride-
***END OF RECAP***
-GUIGUI’S POV:-
This was the first day I had actually spent with Aaron. He wasn’t as bad as I supposed, yet it seems as if he has only had fun once or twice. Every time I look him in the eyes, all I can see is pure sorrow and sadness. Stress? Maybe… The only thing he doesn’t have in his life is happiness. He might have the money to pursue and receive everything he wants, but he doesn’t have the true feeling of gladness… Getting back to reality, I looked at Aaron as he made his way to the man selling balloons. He took one and handed a quarter and looked back at me. It was a red balloon. He sat next to me and said, “Here, it’s for you.” I looked at him confused. “What’s this for?” I asked. “For keeping me company.” He replied. Even though I hate his guts to the fullest, I felt sorry for him. The way he looks is different. You could never really determine on whether he was sincere, or he was just doing it for the sake of thanking me.
“Gui?” he called. “Hmmm?” I answered. I stared at him and his mouth opened… “Remember that night?” he asked. I looked at him. Was he referring to the night at the beach? “What night?” I asked back. He turned and faced me. I knew what he was going to say. I knew that he had problems. I knew that he was sad. “The night when we bumped with each other at the beach.” It was what I was expecting, yet tried to avoid. Why? Because I was never the type of person who could talk about something personal to someone I didn’t know to the fullest. Looking at Aaron’s Point of View, I know that he wanted to tell me something that has been hurting him… But who was I to judge? “Bumped? Haha! You seriously looked dead then!” I joked, changing emotions. “Guigui, have you ever thought why I was like that? Have you ever asked why I’m so arrogant? Have you?” he asked in a low tone. Yep, just as I expected. The guy has problems. “I have… but I never really let it get to me. I’ve only known you for awhile, Aaron. As much as I want to understand you, I can’t.” I told him. “Why can’t you? Why is it so hard for me to really find someone to understand me and my feelings?” He complained. “Truth is, I think pride and money has got to you. You have it, yes, but you just don’t know how to use it for the better.” I said. “So you mean I should use money to buy friends?” he asked. “No… Not at all. What I mean is that, you should talk to people in kind ways in order to make friend. The reason I was never able to be friends was because you talked to me in a way that made it sound like your intoxicated by my very presence. Because of that, I feel like always disappearing from you.” I explained and added: “Also, the time I saw you at the beach, you looked depressed, tired, stressed, and countless descriptions. All you think about is work, and when you do have the time to relax, you then blame everything for making you feel in such ways. Maybe you should take a vacation. It’s the least that can help.”

Back @ the mansion:
~ Night crept… It seemed as if Aaron had been offended by what I have said to him earlier because I haven’t seen him anywhere! At least I helped him right? Why am I feeling so guilty now? Ugh!
“Guigui?” Sr. Yan called.
“Yes?” I answered.
“We’re having dinner… Especially cooked by me!” Sr. Yan exclaimed.
“Oh! Wow!” I excitedly wailed.
“Come now! Let’s eat!” He concluded.
I made my way to dinner table, and there I saw Aaron, Selina, and Sr. and Mrs. Yan.
I don’t belong here! I told myself. I’m probably the only one who was out of the family.
“Is it really Okay?” I asked Sr. Yan.
“Yes… Come and eat. Aaron was the one who insisted. –Turns to Aaron and smiles-” Sr. Yan.
Aaron insisted in this? Oh wow. I guess he’s not really mad…
After 10 minutes, Aaron said: “Can I get your attention?”
We all looked at him and had not said a word.
“I feel as if I’m really stressed. I feel very tired. By this, I decided to take a vacation Boracay, Philippines.” He said.
Aaron? Is this really him?
So he continued: “The reason I insisted Gui to be here was because I plan on taking her with me.” He exclaimed.
They all looked weirdly at him then soon me.
“Well that’s great son! You, Guigui and Selina. Hope you have fun!” Mrs. Yan expressed.
--
“No mom, it’s only me and Guigui” he said.
I looked at him in surprise, as did Selina… we were all speechless.
