Midnight Rain

Five

My parents aren't home still. Ang kapatid ko ganun rin. They probably out for business.

Kanina pa ako namomroblema sa susuotin ko. Binasa ko ulit yung maliit na papel. How can I get to reply this guy? I don't even have his number. Kahit socials!

Napasapok ako sa noo. Biglang tumunog ang cellphone ko. It was a message from an unknown number but I was too stunned to speak ng makita kung kanino galing 'yon.

Hi, this is Jael. I got your phone number from your friends. Are you down tonight?

Hi, Who friend?

Raven and Louie.

Oh, yeah, I'm down.

I'll pick you up by seven. :)

I hurriedly put my phone down and went straight into the bathroom. I took a shower before dressing up. I don't know about a thing about this night, but I surely knew this could be something fun.

Yeah, I still don't know what to wear. Is this a casual date or a fancy one? Ugh. Why do I even bother thinking that way?

I ended up wearing a black off-shoulder dress. It's actually fit, enhancing the side details of my body. Has a long slit on the left side of my leg, leaving enough inches for my safe shorts. I parted my hair in the middle and let it loose at the back of my shoulder. I don't want to exert efforts.

Besides wala akong idea kung anong klaseng date 'to. I also paired it with small drop earrings and a small pendant necklace. Suot ko rin ang two inches stiletto heels , ganun rin sa make up.

Hindi naman ako conscious sa height ko. As far as I know. He's six two. I can wear any heels that I want when I'm with him.

Nang mag alas syete na, bumababa agad ako. I went outside and I saw him casually talking with our family's driver. Leaning his back on his car, while his hands are inside his pockets.Wait—is that a new Audi R8? But he had the black audi the other day.

I shook my head, well. what should I expect from a man name Timothy Jael Montenegro? Plus he is a Zobel.

Nang magtama ang mga mata namin. He walk towards me para alalayan. He's wearing a black long sleeves na nakatupi hanggang sa elbow niya. Tucked in his black trousers and belt to keep his shirt in place. It was two inches above his ankles. Revealing his expensive loafer shoes. He's wearing a complete black outfit and oh–he wears the same watch. My lips formed a small smile. Our outfit matched.

He swift some hair strands to the back of my ear.

"Gorgeous." He whispered. naramdaman ko naman ang pag init ng pisnge ko. Damn this man.

"You too." ipit kung tugon. He gently hold my other hand, while his other arm wrapped around the back of my waist. Supporting me to get inside his car.

Ayoko siyang mag mukhang driver kahit gusto niya na sa likod ako pumwesto. I insist na tabihan siya sa passenger's seat.

Kalaunan ko nalang nalaman na ang pinuntahan pala naming event ay birthday ng Dad niya. Oo si Mayor.

"Why you didn't tell me? I should at least bought him a gift." napansin niya naman na nainis ako sakanya. Dahil nginusoan ko siya.
