Unexplainable Love (UnSeries #1)

Entry 13

"Happy birthday, Asia!" I looked at them while they were raising a tarpaulin with my face, I chuckled with glee. No traces of rain can be found too. It's a good thing na tumila na ang ulan.

It was one of my IG photos before and I was wearing a cream strapped dress and smiling from ear to ear in that picture and it was taken before on City Heights.

I looked at everyone in front of me and Nehemiah and Marcus' group of friends were all present. Grethel is here too, although his sister is not here and that super duper okay, I don't wanna ruin my mood again. And duh, baka maaway ko na naman si Nehemiah, not now that I already have been marupokpok towards him.

"Happy birthday, princess." I looked behind me when I heard a familiar voice and I can't help but to jump and hug Kuya Russ when I saw him. I don't know but it felt as if ilang years ko silang hindi nakita.

He was holding a cake so when he saw me coming he immediately gave it to Dad to hold me for support. I kissed his cheek and then my father's. I looked beside them and saw our cute bunso.

"I missed you, Europia." I said with teary eyes and hugged my sister. Why do I feel so old na ba? Parang noong last lang ay we are playing hide and seek with Kuya.

"I miss you too, Ate. It's been boring at home since you were gone," she said and pouted.

"Happy birthday, anak. We decided to just celebrate your birthday here in San Felipe, I hope it is okay with you." Dad said and hugged me again.

"It's fine, Dad. I don't have much friends in Manila anyway, thus, I want the people here to be happy and experience simple birthday at its best even just for today." I giggled.

Everything was set according to my plan. There were ten long tables with banana leafs and foods above it. The table is full of rice and three dishes na ulam. There's a table for soft drinks too, and juice. I took a quick photo of them, I'll post this later.

I was smiling the whole time while looking at the people of San Felipe happily eating but I felt an hand touched my waist. I looked at the owner and rolled my eyes when saw Grethel, he chuckled in reaction.

"Your father is waiting, there's a table for us and he told me to tell you that we are going to eat too."

"Oh, okay." Indeed there's a table for us, although we are going to eat while standing. The table is consist of Nehemiah, Kuya Russ, Pia, Daddy, Grethel and Marcus though he looks uncomfortable, I wonder why.

I smiled before joining them for meal. Nehemiah, being the good boy he is, led the prayer and Dad, of course, praised him for being such a good boy. I chuckled when I saw how shy Nem was but immediately confused when I saw Marcus staring or should I say, almost glaring at his food.

"You okay?" I asked him and he sighed before giving me a nod and ate. I shrugged it off.

After our lunch Dad let the people rest first before hosting a game and money was the prize. It was fun, until the debut came.

I was wearing a cream colored skinny long sleeves gown full of glitters and I was happy when Dad brought a make up artist, I still want to look pretty, no!

They tied my hair on a messy bun and gave me a fluffy cream colored fur scarf to match my outfit. Now I look like a super model ready to rock the run way.

It's already 8pm and everyone was done eating their dinner and now witnessing my grand entrance. It was not like what I have dreamt years ago but I can say that it made me happy still.

Imagine having your debut with few villagers and they're all staring at you with admiration and respect in their eyes? Well, I am thankful for that although palagi akong gumagawa ng scene dito no.
