EP4

Nica seems to be scared of Elaijah so I faced her and rubbed her hair to calm her down "It's okay Nica, She's an old friend of mine so relax, okay?" Nica nodded, and I faced Elaijah and said "Yeah we're not blood related. But she's my sister." I said while still rubbing Nica's head

   "Can you move away a bit, Elaijah? I will just tell Nica something then we'll talk in private" I said signalling Elaijah to move, and she did but not that far. Just enough for me to tell Nica something without her hearing me.

   Then I tool Nica to the other side of the oak tree so that Elaijah won't see us, then I gave Nica the Rectangular box that I was holding. "Uhm... I will go to your house later ok? I will just talk to Elaijah, ok?" I said, smiling. Not only that, but I think it would be better if Nica wouldn't hear whatever Elaijah and I would talk about.

After Nica left I faced Elaijah. I wasn't smiling anymore, and I saw Elaijah got a little nervous to see me like that because since she appeared until Nica left I kept a smile of my face.

   "So...?" I asked. I know she wants to say something to me, but she couldn't because of Nica.

   She didn't respond, but looked away with a face that of someone who's regretting about something.

   So I sat by the tree and waited for her to answer me. There must be a reason why, so I'll listen to her first

-Elaijah's POV-

   The time I came back to the Philippines from Canada about a week ago, the first thing that went to my mind is 'Where could I find him?'.

   So I went around the town trying to look for him, but I couldn't see him. I thought about messaging him to directly ask him, but then I changed my mind and contacted Mika instead.

   I meet Mika in a restaurant and we talked about a lot of things. I told her about the funny moments of my life in Canada, and she told me about her life here in the Philippines.

Only one thing I kept a secret from her. The reason why.

   "By the way Mikay, do you know where Coco is now?" She know how I left Coco without saying anything back then. So when I asked her on where I could find him she was really shocked.

   "Him? I think he's still in his house in Cavite. But to think you'd ask about him... do you still love him?" Mika said grinning.

   "Maybe.. you know, I miss being called and treated as a queen" I said. Back when Coco was still my boyfriend, on him I experienced being treated as a Queen. And I really miss being treated like that because since the time I left to Canada, I never experienced being treated as a Queen again.
