Dahil siguro sa halatang gulat sa mga mata namin kaya nagsalita si Daddy.
"You looked shocked to see each other. Perhaps you're... acquaintances?"
Natauhan ako dahil doon. Nag ayos ako ng tayo at hinarap si Daddy.
"He's a friend of Agezho, Dad."
Totoo naman, alangan namang sabihin kong we're friends eh hindi naman kami friends! Siguro nung 4th year lang, pero after that, wala na.
Hindi ko rin pwede sabihing naka one night stand ko. That's weird and it's in front of our parents!
Baka masampal ako bigla ni Daddy.
"Oh..." Gulat ring sabi ng Daddy ni Dirv.
I guess they're familiar with Agezho and who he is.
Lumapit si Dirv at nakipag kamay sa mga magulang ko. Nakasunod lang ang tingin ko sa kanya, hindi pa rin maka get over. Siya talaga ang fiancé ko?!
The fridge? So parang wala ring sense iyong pagtulak ko sa kanya noon palayo because we'll end up on this situation anyway?
But we're never sure, baka icall off niya rin naman itong engagement.
I'm sure he will. Knowing him, and as far as I can remember, he never followed his parents. Kaya baka icancel niya rin ito after some time.
Yes, I know he'll cancel this.
I tried to calm myself and not show panic because of the sudden situation I'm in. Ni hindi ko nga alam bakit ako biglaang nagpapanic! Siguro dahil nandito si Dirv.
At papunta na siya ngayon sa tabi ko!
Mahina akong napasinghap ng maamoy ang pamilyar na amoy niya. We then sat down on the chairs assigned to us after our parents sat.
He never glanced at me again and so did I.
I feel so awkward right now.
Dumating na rin ang pagkain namin so we started eating. Hindi nagtagal ay umalis na ang mga matatanda, leaving the both of us here.
Okay, now what?
Wala saming naimik at nagpatuloy lang sa pagkain. Ramdam na ramdam ko rin ang presensya niya sa gilid ko and it's not helping!
I feel like I'll choke soon because of how intimidating his presence has become!
Nagpatuloy kami sa tahimik na pagkain hanggang sa nauna na siyang matapos.
He sipped on the wine on his glass before leaning on the chair. Hindi pa rin siya naimik kaya hindi rin ako umimik!
Hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko, I don't even know if it's obvious that I'm so bothered about this or if I still have my poise while eating.
I don't remember my dates with my former fiance's to be like this. Hindi naman iyon gaano kaawkward and ka weird gaya ng ngayon! Maybe because noon ay hindi namin kilala ang isa't isa while us, we know each other.
More than what we told our parents!
Nang matapos ay uminom lang rin ako sa wine, inisahan ko lang iyon bago uminom ng tubig.
Ang tahimik namin, hindi gaya noon na pag natatahimik kami, he'll talk pero ngayon ay hindi talaga. Nagtagal pa kaming ganon. Napapikit ako ng mariin bago tumayo na.
"I'll go now." I told him.
Hindi naman siya umimik kaya napairap ako. Umalis na ako sa kwartong iyon dahil hindi ko na kinakaya ang awkwardness and intense atmosphere with him!
