*The CEO In My Daydreams**Chapter 1: The Man In My Day*_By Regine Navarrosa_I have been in love with a man on My Day for 7 months.I don't know his name. I don't know where he lives. I don't even know if he knows I exist.All I know is, he is handsome. He always wears a black Armani suit. He owns a building in BGC. He drives a black Porsche. And every morning, his My Day is the first thing I watch.I am Luna Reyes. 24 years old. Office staff in a small company in BGC. My salary is $300 a month. I live in a small studio, I ride the bus, I bring my own baon to save money.He is... a CEO. A billionaire. He lives in One Shangri-La, BGC. He owns half of the buildings I see from my office window.We are different worlds. Like sky and ground.But on Facebook My Day, we are in the same world. He posts, I watch. He posts his coffee, his office view, his suit for the day, his Porsche. And I always react. Heart eyes emoji. Always.I know it's stupid. I know he has a hundred girls reacting heart eyes to his My Day. But I can't stop.That day was like any other day. It was Mika's birthday. Mika is my best friend since college. She had a small birthday party in her condo in BGC. Just us, some college friends, food, karaoke, and lots of My Day posts.I was happy for her. I posted her birthday on my My Day. I also appeared on her My Day — me, holding a balloon, laughing, wearing my simple white dress from Shopee, worth $10.That night, I went home, tired. I watched My Day stories like usual. I watched his. The CEO in my daydreams.He posted his building at night. BGC lights. Caption: "Another long day."I reacted heart eyes, like always. Then I slept.The next morning, my phone wouldn't stop ringing.Mika was calling me. 7 AM. On a Sunday."Luna! Luna! Wake up! Check my My Day!""What? Why are you shouting?" I was still half asleep."Just check! Now!"I opened Facebook. I opened Mika's My Day from last night. It was her birthday party. I was there. My friends were there. And at the back... at the very back, near the door, blurry but clear...A man in a black Armani suit. Holding a wine glass. Tall. Handsome.My heart stopped.It was him.The CEO in my daydreams.He was in Mika's birthday party.My hands were shaking so hard I almost dropped my phone. I called Mika back immediately."Mika! Who is the man in your My Day birthday party? The man in black suit at the back!"Mika laughed on the other line. "You mean my cousin?""Cousin? You have a cousin?""Yes! Ethan! Ethan Dela Cruz! My cousin from my mom's side! CEO of Dela Cruz Logistics! You know, the big logistics company in BGC! Why? You know him?"Ethan Dela Cruz.So that was his name.Ethan Dela Cruz. 28 years old. CEO. Billionaire. Owns half of BGC buildings. Single.Mika's cousin."Mika, how... how do you know him? Why was he in your party?""Girl, he's my cousin! Of course he's in my party! He's close to my family! He just came late, you were already in the bathroom when he arrived. That's why you didn't meet him!"I couldn't breathe. For 7 months, I loved a man on My Day that I thought I would never meet. A man who lived in a different world. And now... he is my best friend's cousin."Luna? Luna? Are you there? Why are you asking about my cousin? Do you like him?"I panicked. "No! No! Nothing! He just looks... familiar!"I hung up. I sat on my bed. My small bed in my small studio. My heart was beating so fast.He was real. He has a name. Ethan Dela Cruz. And he was in the same party as me last night. I breathed the same air as him. I was just in the bathroom when he arrived.What if I didn't go to the bathroom?That afternoon, while I was still overthinking, Mika texted me.Mika: "Luna, my cousin saw your photo on my My Day. He asked who you are."I froze.He asked who I am?Mika: "He said you are cute. He wants to meet you. Can I give him your number?"My hands were shaking. My tears started falling without reason.The CEO in my daydreams. The man I watched on My Day for 7 months. The man I gave heart eyes emoji to every single day.He thinks I am cute. He wants to meet me.I typed "yes" with shaking fingers.After 10 minutes, an unknown number texted me."Hi Luna, this is Ethan Dela Cruz. Mika's cousin. The man you saw on My Day. Can we meet for coffee tomorrow? BGC High Street?"It was him. Real. Not My Day. Not a screen.For 7 months he was just a My Day. A daydream.Now he is texting me. Asking me for coffee.I replied: "Yes, sir."He replied after a second: "Don't call me sir. Call me Ethan. And I will bring my black Porsche. You like black Porsche right? I saw you reacted heart eyes to my Porsche My Day."He noticed.He notice my Heart eyes.All those months of heart eyes.I cried Tomorrow,3 PM, BGC Hight street.I will meet the CEO in my daydream
