Make You Mine

Chapter 41

It's Monday evening and I can feel myself getting nervous but excited at the same time as I parked my car.

Saktong tumunog ang phone ko at lumabas sa screen ang pangalan ng babaeng gustong-gusto ko ng makita. Friday pa kami huling nagkita noong umuwi kami galing hacienda at sa university naman kanina ay nasa meeting siya.

My Baby ❤️: Where are you na?

Nakangiti akong bumaba ng sasakyan at magta-type na sana ng reply ng mapansin ko ang Ford Raptor na kulay red na katabi pala ng Lambo ko.

May bisita pala sila?

"Ay Ate Tam!" Si Alex na saktong lumabas ng gate. "Pasok po."

Nakangiti akong tumango saka pumasok sa loob.

"Pasok ka na lang sa loob ng bahay, ate. May bibilhin kasi ako sa labas." Paalam niya kaya dumiretso na ako sa pintuan.

Kabado akong kumatok at pagbukas ng pinto ay hindi ko inaasahan ang taong bubungad sa 'kin.

It's Sandro.

"Oh hi!" Ngiting-ngiting sambit niya.

I know I look stupid right now dahil hindi ko alam ang ire-react at gulat lang akong nakatingin sa kanya.

"Good evening... po." Wala sa sarili kong sagot pero bigla naman itong tumawa.

"Come in. Ava's waiting for you." He said.

"Who's there?" Followed by a very familiar voice na lalong nagpakabog sa dibdib ko.

Sandro slid his hands in his pockets and stepped backward. Nakangisi pa itong lumingon kaya tuluyan ko ng nakita si Ava na papalapit na rin sa amin.

"Your favorite girl." Sandro answered then looked at me again, still wearing his playfully smile. "Kanina pa 'yan hindi mapakali kakahintay sa 'yo."

I tried to think of a good answer pero wala talagang pumapasok sa isip ko. This is totally not what I'm expecting and I am not ready for this.

Ava told me everything about them bago kami umuwi galing hacienda. She said he just offered a help by acting as her boyfriend while she's still figuring out how to deal with her grandpa. They had a family dinner before the pageant in Callister and he announced there that he wants her to marry the son of his good friend-which is Sandro and he thought it would be easy for her since he knew they had a past.

Sandro is her best friend so he knew everything.

"Sandro, shut up!" Tuluyang lumapit sa akin si Ava at mahina pang tinulak si Sandro na tatawa-tawa lang na sumandal sa pintuan.

"Let's go. Don't mind him." Baling naman nito sa 'kin and then I felt her soft hand held mine.

Hinila niya ako palabas ng gate at nang makapasok kami ng sasakyan ay doon lang ako medyo natauhan.

"He wants to know if I'm alright after the issue that's why he's here and pissing me off." She said while fixing her seat belt.

I looked at her and silently praise her beauty. Ayaw ko mang maging clingy pero pakiramdam ko sobrang tagal ko siyang hindi nakita and now I'm overwhelmed. Na-caught off guard lang ako kanina dahil sa gulat kaya hindi ko siya masyadong napagmasdan kaya heto ulit ang puso kong nagsisimula na namang magwala.

"Are you really... mine now?" I can't help but to ask 'cause until now hindi pa rin talaga ako makapaniwalang girlfriend ko na ang isang Ava Calista Andrade.

I watched her stop from fixing the seat belt then she looked at me while raising her brow. "I won't be here with you tonight and have dinner with your family and meet your parents if I'm not."
