The Axe Effect

October 13, 2006 krissything 

OMG. Everybody has started to notice I have a thing for Andrew. I don’t know how Pong was able to decipher it! And he goes on teasing me that I thought Andrew smelled so good, along with Gracielle! And Pong has the loudest voice ever, MG!! This is sooo embarrassing! Do you know what our cheer was this morning? “Andrew ang bango bango mo sabi ni Kristine!” I could have just died right then and there. Good thing they were staying in the other room but still he might have heard…Huhuhu! Why do I have to undergo this kind of embarrassment?… I am too old for this! How will I ever be able to smile back at him without anybody noticing now??? I mean when he smiles at me, how am I ever gonna be able to smile comfortably when I know a lot of people are watching? And he’s so friendly pa naman!

Pong might have heard me tell Raffy about it or maybe he was able to tell from our conversation. I can’t believe how totally transparent I am when he’s around. Leslie even saw the look in my face when at smiled me! Good thing she’s the silent type and has no inclination to join Pong and Gracielle’s bandwagon. I guess I just can’t help but smile back when he flashes his pearly whites. He’s so friendly, he even greets us “good morning” everytime we meet at the corridors! And hello, who am I? And who is he? When I took the elevator with him once and we got off on the same floor, he made small talk on our way to the office. And he even opened the door for me. Most guys DO NOT know the powerful effect of small and genuinely friendly gestures, especially when you’re barely acquaintances. Or they are simply ignorant of the fact that it pays to be a gentleman. And Andrew’s so smart! Well at least that’s how I see him and I don’t think he’d be where he is if he wasn’t and I can tell from the “small talk” that we had. Hahahaha! And he just smells sooo good…. You know when you’ve had a stressful day and somebody leaves a fragrance so fresh and clean and masculine that you can’t help but try to capture some for your nostrils…Ahh..The Axe Effect. Only it would have been nice if you can just indulge your sense of smell in peace.
