Get Me Out of Here (Completed)

Chapter 24

Chapter 24

The next day is Valentines Day, parang itinaon pa talaga kung kailan alam na namin ang nararamdaman para sa isa't-isa. Hindi ko tuloy mapigilang ma-excite, we're going out today, iyon ang usapan namin kagabi bago siya umalis.

Kaya naman maaga akong gumising para mag-ayos. Dylan didn't tell me where we'll be going so I thought it's okay to wear anything, kaya dress ang napili kong isuot.

I prepared so much, because this is the first time I'll be able to celebrate this day again with someone. Sa sobrang saya at excitement ko ay kitang-kita iyon sa buong itsura ko nang bumaba na sa sala.

Mom, Dad and Arkin are in the living room, and it looks like I disturbed their discussion about something. I smiled at them when they looked at me.

"You look radiant, honey." Mommy smiled while looking at me. "Are you going somewhere?" Nakakunot ang noo niyang nilingon si Arkin na parang tinatanong kung saan ako pupunta.

Arkin looked at me curiously too, I bet he has a clue.

"Uhm.. Dylan will pick me up and we'll go out." I'm not sure if this is the right time to tell them, I'm curious of their reaction pero kung hindi naman sila magtatanong ay wala pa akong balak sabihin.

Though I can feel that they have a hunch already.

Nagkatinginan sila Mommy't Daddy, si Arkin naman ay nakakunot ang noo habang nakatitig sa akin.

Bago pa may makapagsalita sa amin ay biglang dumating si Corine para sabihing dumating na si Dylan.

I smiled and nodded. Tumayo sila Mommy at sumunod sa akin sa pagsalubong kay Dylan sa pintuan.

As usual, he's dashing, he's boyish and handsome in his casual clothes. Ngumiti ako sa kaniya pero sandali lang iyon dahil bumaling din siya kina Mommy at Daddy para bumati.

"Good morning, Tito and Tita." He smiled at them.

Mom smiled back. "Good morning, Dylan."

Dad nodded at him. Nang bumaling siya kay Arkin ay alam kong sa kaniya talaga kami mahihirapan. He looks ten times scary, pero gusto kong tumawa. I think he's forgetting that he's the one who continuously brought Dylan to me.

"Care to tell me where are you taking my sister today, Dylan?" He sounded like he's my father.

Nagkatinginan kami ni Mommy, she smiled at me. Umakbay sa kaniya si Daddy habang pinapanood din si Arkin.

"It's a secret, Arkin, I'm surprising her so I can't tell you right now, I'm sorry.." Dylan said cockily that almost made me laugh. He really has the guts to talk like this to my brother.

Arkin then looked at me so I smiled. "I'll be fine, Arkin.."

His eyebrow shot up. "You should be home by seven, Armie."

I chuckled. Look at this guy suddenly giving me a curfew. I shrugged and smiled at him evenmore. "Okay.."

Pagkatapos noon ay nagpaalam na kami at tuluyan nang umalis. Dylan is laughing in the car because of that.

"Parang kailan lang pinagkakatiwalaan niya ako, ngayon naman pinagdududahan na."

I rolled my eyes. "That's because you're crossing the line."

He laughed before he glanced at me. Bumaba ang tingin niya sa suot ko bago bumaling ulit sa mukha ko. He grinned. "Well, I understand why he's being strict. Ang ganda mo ba naman."

I rolled my eyes. He knows how to flatter girls so much.

"But your dress won't be appropriate for equestrian, my dear princess."
