8 WE MEET AGAIN (2/2)
What she's planning today would show if she's correct or not with her assumption. This would be a test for Alexa, whether she would get signed as talent or not.

Alexa was standing at the bus stop when her cousin Andrea called. She fumbled with her cell phone and almost dropped it before she was able to answer. Luckily someone was speedy to catch it before it falls and shutter to the ground.
”Thank you!” Alexa said quickly after receiving her phone from a stranger.
”No big deal, It's a good thing it didn't drop. It would have been shuttered to pieces for sure.” The stranger was trying to make small talk.
”Yup! Man, I would have been in deep shit with my grandma, if the had happened.” She replied calmly.
”Alexa, you didn't recognize me, don't you?” The stranger excitedly asked her.
Alexa looks at the stranger straight face without blinking. She assessed him, first his face, then she backed up a little ready to bolt. ”Man, if I had done something to offend you or something, I'm sorry ok!” Terror was clearly showing on Alexa's face, but she's still ready to fight.
”Hahaha! You haven't changed a bit, your still a tomboy. But you sure cleaned up pretty well though.” The stranger banters.
”Wait a minute, do we know each other from the past or something? How come I don't recognize you at all?” Alexa said it a little loud.
”Hahaha! of course, you wouldn't recognize me anymore. The last time you saw me was when I was 12 years old, and I was on a skinny side. Plus I had braces and thick eyeglasses then.” He gave Alexa a wide grin showing straight pearly white teeth.
”My braces were gone, and I had a Lasik done, so no more glasses either. Plus I worked out, so I'm pretty baff, see!”
Alexa looked at him once again, she looks, and looks, and looks. Then something hit her from what he had said. ”Ramon!!! Oh my God! Is it you? How could that the be? Hahaha!”
”I told you back then before I left for America that someday, will meet again. And here I am.”
Alexa got excited, she jumps at Ramon and hugs him, ”Hahaha! I can't believe it's you and you kept your promise that will meet again.”
Ramon was stunned unable to say a word. He stands still rooted to the ground speechless. With nervous looks on his face.
