The Next Day
Eloise's POV
Maaga ako today, since I have to get my fittings done, I just took a bath bago ako lumabas ng room to eat breakfast.
As I went down I saw a bouquet of flowers in the center table sa living room, so my first thought was tingnan ito. It was a bouquet of red roses with baby's breath around it. It even has a card, and well me being me, binuksan ko.
It reads:
"Josefa,
Sabi mo if gusto, may paraan.. Gustong gusto kita, at gagawin ko lahat ng paraan para sayo.
PS. Wag mo nalang ipabasa kay Eloise, magiging bully na naman anak mo, thank you.
- Rody
"
"Too late, Tito Rod.." natatawa kong sabi sa sarili ko.
"Who's that for?" tanong naman ni mom habang bumababa sa hagdanan.
"For youuu" I teasingly said habang winagayway ang card.
"Akin na.." she said habang dali daling lumapit.
"Okay! Di ko naman aagawin.." I replied and gave her the letter.
"PS. Wag mo nalang ipabasa ni Eloise.."
"Dapat sa envelope pa lang sinulatan niya na ng "Di pwede kay Eloise!" edi di ko na sana yun babasahin.." I replied.
"Hay whatever, kain na tayo.. Sabay nalang tayo lalabas kasi I'm going out din." she said.
"Pero, wala ka pa ngang ligo.." I rebut.
"Edi maghintay ka, sayang ang gasolina.." she said as she sat down on the table.
We ate breakfast, she prepared herself and we went out - kinuha na din namin sila Avery at Gabbie since iisa lang naman sila ng subdivision, at same route lang papunta sa boutique.
"Okay girls, be aware of your sorroundings ha, if there's something wrong, call me ha.." Mom reminded.
"El, if magpapasundo na kayo - just call me, ok?" dagdag pa niyang sabi.
"I think I'll be around the area lang naman.." she said.
"Where are you going pala?" I ask.
"Coffee."
"Coffee outside?? Really?? That's new for a very kuripot Tita Imee.." biro naman ni Avery.
"Baka coffee with someone, Tita ah!" dagdag naman ni Gabbie.
"Coffee with a friend.." Mom muttered.
"Oh diba, with someone nga!" Gabbie laughingly said.
"Who friend?" I ask.
"Rody.." she shyly replied.
"He's in Manila?!" I shockingly ask.
"He has a conference daw here.." Mom replied.
"Di man lang nagsabi-" I complain.
"Baka last minute.." she rebut.
"Basta yun na ah.. just call me.." she said as she pulled up sa parking lot ng boutique.
"Bye tita, thank you for the hatid! Babantayan namin si Eloise.." sabi nung dalawa which made mom laugh nalang.
"Bye mom, love you.." bati ko before going out.
"Di ba pupunta si Abigail?" tanong ni Gabbie.
"Edi mabuti.." sagot naman ni Avery.
"Ewan ko, pero she messaged me last night she'll be here daw.." I said as we entered the boutique, ang daming nice designs.
