Even after the nakakainis na encounter with the newly made acquaintance named Hailey about a week ago, Akira still couldn't help but smile at the thought na ipapakilala siya ni Dwayne formally sa family nito.
Re-reading the dude's text for the nth time today, she made sure to prep up early. Knowing her, kahit gaano siya kaaga magsimula mag ayos, huli pa'rin siya sa oras.
She had this black knee-length sleeveless dress, overlaying it with a beige cardigan and cute-looking white sandals for a chic yet casual look. Aside from decent, comfortable 'rin ito.
Looking like nothing could ruin her mood, she went downstairs na nang marinig niya ang busina ng sasakyan ni Dwayne. He didn't bother going inside the house since si Akira lang naman ang tao sa bahay at wala ang mga magulang nito at si Saiko.
Akira went out of the house, only to see Dwayne na nakasandal sa hood ng Civic nito, patiently waiting for her. He can't help but admire the girl in front of her.
He rarely sees Akira in a dress. On a regular school day kasi, she's more of a trousers/cargo pants type of girl. Mas comfortable nga naman, kaya gano'n na lamang ang pag admire ng isang ito sa babaeng ginugusto.
"Hey," Napahugot ng hininga si Dwayne. "You-you look beautiful"
She smiles in return. "Uhh tara na," Bahagyang napa-iktad si Dwayne sa pagkakasandal sa hood ng kotse nito. Marahan niyang pinag buksan ng pinto ng kotse ang dalaga at hinintay itong makapasok.
Akira watched as Dwayne jogs his way to his side of the car to get in. When he does, he slowly reached for Akira's side of the seat belt para i-strap ito sa kaniya. Safety first alam mo na! Almost closing the gap between them, pero Dwayne made sure to leave space as an act of respect nalang 'din.
Pero hindi maiwasang maramdaman ni Akira kung gaano kabilis ang pag tibok ng kaniyang puso. Daig pa niya ang ginawang tubig ang kape, akala mo palpitation.
It's the butterflies.
Nag iwas ito ng tingin nang magtagpo ang mga mata nila ng gano'n kalapit sa isa't isa. Clearing his throat before starting the car's engine. Leaving Akira to laugh at herself at the way he felt on a simple gesture. Iba na 'yan, teh! Kabahan ka na!!
