"Sure. Sige. Uhm goodnight din. Ingat ka though"

After she said that I just smiled and waved in return as I assist her with the gate. As soon as she went inside, here I am releasing all the kilig feeling inside my body. Jumping, silent screaming and silent clapping so that nobody would hear it.

"Yes! Yes! Pumayag na sya hehe" I continued to release my kilig when all of a sudden I saw my security guards and my assistant looking at me from afar while laughing. I immidiately fixed myself and gained back my composure. Back to being honorable, I looked at them. "Oh ano? First time makakita ng kinikilig na Mayor?" I smiled at them this time. But a smirk one.

"Parang ganon na nga siguro, boss? Ngayon lang po namin kayong nakitang ganyan. Ganyan kasaya" My assistant said which made everybody else nod as they agreed with her statement.

"Ganon ba? Edi masanay na kayo" I bragged. "Nga pala, sige ako na lang ulit magda-drive nung kotse. Gusto ko lang mag muni-muni rin" They nodded so we went back to our respective cars.

Once I entered inside the car, what just happened a while ago flashed back inside my head again. I just can't help but to smile and feel so kilig. Might take off my honorable image somehow, but oh well what else can I do? That's how powerful her effect is to me. Our genuine moment inside the car, that moment she agreed when I asked her if I can court her and the kiss on her cheek that even I didn't expect that I'll do right on that moment, it even made me blush infront of her. How I wish she didn't noticed that though. It's kind of embarassing hahaha.

Soon enough I arrived home. Still on my bestest mood, I greeted everybody with a smile like I'm not even exhausted with all the event that I attended to earlier for my work.

"Mukhang maganda gabi natin dyan ah" Manang, our family's trusted helper said. She's been with me even before Kris and I met more than a decade ago. Like what she always say, everything about me and Kris, she knows it because she was one of the firsts who witnessed it. She even claims that she's our number one supporter hahaha.

"Nako Manang, bawing bawi. Kung kanina grabe yung pagod ko sa trabaho, well now, wala. All gone hahaha" We both laughed at each other.

"Oh edi okay. Kumain ka na ba? Ipaghahanda kita" Manang offered but I shook my head.

"No thank you, Manang. Nakakain na ako eh. Nasaan na lang si Papa? Sa kwarto nya?" I asked where my father is because I just can't let this day pass without even telling him. If Mama's here, I'm sure she'll be happy when she knew about this.

"Yes, Sir. Nasa kwarto. Gising pa naman po siguro" Manang said so I nodded and excused myself. I hurriedly went inside my father's room and as expected, he's just there watching tv.

"Pa!" I went to him and gave him a hug with a beso, while still being so energetic.

"Oh kakauwi mo lang? Teka bakit parang ang saya saya naman ng anak ko?" He asked with a smile. I sat down next to him as he's already sitting down on his bed.

"Pa, eh kasi naman yung favourite nyo..."

"Favourite? Sino? Si Kris ba? Oh bakit anong meron?" He excitedly asked. He even turned off the tv. I jokingly gave him a dissapointed look for a second but we both ended up laughing at each other.

"Aray ah. Ang ineexpect ko, ako maiisip mo nung sinabi kong favourite nyo hahaha" I pretended that I was hurt with his statement earlier with my hand on my chest while laughing.
