He brought me to a very unfamiliar yet fancy restaurant just somewhere in BGC.

When the car pulled over as we parked, agad siyang lumabas at patakbong pumunta sa gilid ko para pagbuksan ng pinto. I am amazed. Seryoso ba siya? Is this how he shows his affection?

Tinanggal ko ang seatbelt at lumabas na. I thanked him, of course.

Pagkapasok namin sa resto, medyo madaming tao sa loob. Mostly are students, when I say students, the students from private universities I mean. Rich in simple.

Cade was holding my hands and I just let him be. Tinignan ko ang mga kamay namin. His was huge compared to mine and the veins that protrude was visible.

Siya ang pumili kung saan kami umupo. Medyo sulok na bahagi sa restaurant. The waiter immediately went to us and gave us the menu.

"Order ka lang kung anong gusto mo. Make sure mabubusog ka." He said while staring at me.

Tumango ako.

As I scanned the menu, nanlaki ang mata ko kung gaano ito ka mahal. A simple steak cost way more than the usual ones. Napalagok ako. I have no money with me right now.

Nag-angat ako ng tingin kay Cade. He seems to noticed it dahil nag-angat rin siya.

He shot his brows up, asking what's the problem.

"I don't have money with me right now for this expensive meals." ngumuso ako.

"It doesn't matter. I will be the one who'll be paying this. You don't need to be worried." He said.

"But these are a little pricey. Nakakahiya."

"Come on, order what you want and stop thinking about the price. Ako na ang bahala. Besides, I am courting you right?" he shot his right brow.

I just sighed.

I don't think this man will give up. So, I did what he said. Sinabi ko sa waiter and order ko na nasa gilid lang namin mula kanina. Damnit! I forgot about his presence. He probably heard about the 'court'.

I'm not ashamed okay. I know that filipinos are not that open about same sex relationship. Wala pa namang kami but my point is they are not that used to boy and boy together.

Pero in the end, it's not the society who'll decide for us, right? It's the two people who are in love decides for their happiness.

Kinailangan pa naming maghintay ng mga ilang minuto for our order to be serve.

I looked at my watch. It's already twelve twenty-five. Vacant kami ngayong hapon kaya okay lang na matagalan kami but I don't know in Cade's case.

"Hey, I don't think makakabalik agad tayo ng one sa school, do you have classes? Because vacant ako ngayong hapon." I asked him.

He looked at his watch.

"I don't have classes until two this afternoon so it's fine."

I nodded. Kung may klase pala kami pareho, mala-late kami. Why did he chose this resto though. I shouldn't complain since it's his treat.

My eyes flickered to the girl that approaches our table with a smile on her face. Nanlaki ang mga mata ko. It's Alexis with all smile on her lips. Her hair was in a messy hair bun habang nakasuot siya ng uniform ng university nila.
