Meeting the one

chapter 2

Bumilis bigla ang tibok ng aking puso, ba’t ba ganto!

Like the other books that I'm reading, the girl inside those books always feeling this, they said that their heart almost leap out of their ribcage when they meet the one, but it's so impossible…

Posible namang nahuhulog ako sa gagong to! eh guwapo nga mukhang mayabang naman e, bastos din. basta posible rin kasi e matanda na ata to!

Bakit? Kung hindi matanda jojowain mo camila? hays mag hunos dili ka naman!

“uh, bakit po sir?” tanong ko na ikinawala ng ngisi niya.

“oh. please. skip the formalities and just call me by my name. do i look like some old to you huh.”

“sorry, but i guess it's rude of me to just address you by your name without your consent.”

“now I'm giving you my consent. clear?” he said without any humor.

I just nodded and just ask him why he's here…

“bat po pala kayo nandito?” i asked him. while he's just looking at me intently.

He noticed that I'm gazing at him so he answered my question.

“well, your father is a very good friend of my both parents,” he started

“so i became his close friend too. and he also gives me so many advices about my choice of field, and he also teach me so many lessons. he's a good person. you must be lucky.”

I admire the way he praised my great father. The way his eyes glistened while remembering something that my father did to him before. it's kinda overwhelming when someone is admiring your father and can even remember all the good things that he had done. i must be really lucky.

“yeah. thank you.” i mutter giving him a small smile.

“don't metion it, I'm just stating the fact so…”

“so why you're here again?” I asked again.

“well, your father and i have an important short discussion with something. so may i?” he said, asking me a permission to go in our house.

I nodded and widened our door for him to take an entrance.

“umupo ka muna jan tatawagin ko lang sila papa.” sabi ko nang tumigil kami sa sala.

When he already settled in our sofa. I turned my back and walk away to find my parents.

I sigh heavily while walking away, why the hell  my heart is still beating so fast! akala ko recitation lang ang makakapag patibok nang ganitong kabilis ang aking puso. siya rin pala!

But i'll just think that I'm feeling this because he's that intimidating and hard looking man.

When i already found my parents  that are still in the kitchen i called them…

“si attorney rualez pa, nasa sala.” i said looking at them.

Tumango lang si papa at nagpunas ng napkin at tumayo. sinundan naman ni mama at sabay pumunta sa sala para makita ang bisita.

uminom lamang ako nang malamig na tubig habang naghuhugas nang pinggan si ate rita ang isa lang naming kasambahay. kaya napatingin ako sakanya at naisipang siya nalang ang tanungin.

“ate rita kilala moba yang bisita ni papa” tanong ko dahil mag aapat taon na siya rito sa bahay kaya imposibleng di niya kilala si attorney rualez.

“ah. si attorney oscar ba,” tumatango siya.

“oo naman kilala ko siya at yung daddy niya. namamalagi rito yung daddy niya dati eh kaya lagi niyang sinasama yang si attorney oscar hindi pa siya attorney nun.”
