MARRIED TO MR. DAWSON [Completed/Under Editing ] ✓

CHAPTER TEN

"Ano ‘to? " kunot noong tanong niya kay Payton.

"It's flowers babe. Don't ask the obvious." natatawang sagot nito na ikinasimangot niya.

"Oo alam ko. Pero para saan nga 'to? E, wala namang okasyon? " Pasinghal niyang sagot.

Marahan siya nitong hinila sa bewang at mahigpit na niyakap paharap.

"There is no need for an occasion to give you flowers. And i'm courting you remember? " saad nito at inayos ang tumatabong buhok sa kanyang mukha.

"T-totoo talagang liligawan mo ako? " di makapaniwala niyang tanong. Akala niya kase binibiro lang siya nito. 

"You still don't believe that I love you?"

She nodded. She still didn't fully believe that Payton loved her. Because they haven't known each other for long and then he loves her right away? In a short period of time?

Mabigat na bumuntong hininga si Payton at pinagsiklop ang kanilang mga kamay. Napatitig siya sa doon.

"I really love you Serenity. I won't force you to believe me right away. I know there is still doubt in your heart, because yeah, we haven't known each other for long. But believe it or not. I love you, and I understand if you don't want to accept my love right now. Because i was myself, i doubted myself if I really love you. But when i saw you talking to my cousin. I was afraid, i was afraid that you might fall for him. That you might not be able to love me anymore. That you might leave me. That you might realize that he is worth it more than me. Then, right then, reality hit me hard and realize that. . . I really love you. "He said in sincere.

Her heart beat faster because of what he said. She felt the sincerity in the tone of Payton's voice.

Naiiyak siyang tumango "S-sige. Bibigyan kita ng chance na maipakita sa akin na totoong mahal mo talaga ako. " Malawak itong napangiti bago mahinang nagsalita ng yes.

"I promise I will do everything to make you mine. " He said with a wide smile and hugged her tightly before showering kisses on her face. She gently slapped him on his back. Nanliligaw pa lang pero nanghahalik na. Well, they fuck each other even though. They had no label.

"What do you want babe? " tanong ni Payton habang nasa menu ang tingin.

Dinala siya nito sa isang mamahaling restaurant for their first date daw. Aminin niya man o hindi pero kinikilig siya. This is her first time having a date. Buong buhay niya kumakayod siya para may maitustos sa sariling pangangailangan.

"Ikaw na lang ang bahala. Hindi kasi ako sanay kumain sa ganitong lugar." sagot niya at nilibot ang paningin. Napakaganda ng ambiance ng restaurant na ito. Marami ring mayayaman ang kumakain kasama ang kani-kanilang pamilya. This is her first time na makapasok sa isang restaurant. Hanggang karinderya lang kasi ang afford niya dati.

"Alright babe. . . Waiter! " Sagot nito at nagtawag ng waiter. Nakangiti itong lumapit sa kanila.

"What can i do for you ma'am/sir? " magalang nitong tanong habang nakaplastar parin ang magaang ngiti sa labi. Pero alam niya ang totoo. She's use to smile back then kahit pagod na pagod na siya para lang hindi siya masabihang maldita ng costumer.

Ngumiti siya ng tipid. Sobrang saludo siya sa mga waiter at iba pang trabahanteng kumakayod ng husto para sa sarili at pamilya. Kitang-kita niya ang pagod sa mga mata ng waiter pero nagampanan parin nito ng mabuti ang trabaho.

"I'd like to order mashed potatoes, fried chicken, 2 cups of fried rice, red Lobster and lump with meat, for the drinks just give us 2 glass of fresh lemonade juice and macaroni for desserts. "
