Pagkadating ko sa bahay, I opened my phone dahil sunod-sunod ang notifications nito.
I opened my messenger first and I got a lot of messages from Soleia.
Soleia: Bebe, open your ig! You check your notification.
Soleia: Bilis adie ko! Tagal mo huhuhu! Gusto ko na ng chika eh!
Soleia: 'San kana? Panagutan mo ako!
Soleia: Yay nag seen na! Check mo na ig mo dali!
@keydeauz tagged you in a story*
I clicked the notification in my ig which has Kade's username.
I was shocked by what I saw, it was my picture inside his car! Bakit hindi ko napansin na kinuhanan niya ako ng litrato kanina? And what shocked me more is his caption. "my passenger princess👸"
Napasigaw ako kung kaya't dali-daling tumakbo si Kuya Austin sa pintoan ng kwarto ko.
"Baby, are you okay? Why did you scream? Open your door! You are making me worried." I inhaled to hide my kilig. There's no way I'll let Kuya see me like this. Naur way!
I opened the door and smiled at him. "Calm down my kuya doc! I'm fine. U-Uhm, I just saw an ipis! Yeah right!" Parang ayaw ni kuya maniwala sa sinabi ko kaya ngiti ako ng ngiti to assure him that I'm telling the truth.
"I always make sure everything is clean, how come there is an ipis?" Kuya ask. Oh to da M to da G! I forgot! My kuya's a doctor pala! Of course he's a master when it comes to sanitizing and disinfecting the whole freaking place!
"Basta kuya! Sige na go go na! I knoq you have a lot of work to do pa!" I pushed him and smiled like an innocent angel. Hehe, sorry kuya.
Binalik ko ang tingin ko sa cellphone ko at nag reply sa story ni kade.
Me: You are taking pictures without permission ha! Did you know that it is against the law?
@keydeauz: Of course darling, I know. But, you are inside my car and that makes you mine.
Wow! Basehan na pala ngayon! Pag ako hindi na sumakay diyan sa sasakyan niya! Nako!
I typed my reply to him,
Me: Woah, I didn't know may bagong batas pala na ganyan?
Kahit malayo kami ngayon, alam na alam ko na nakangising aso siya ngayon. Grabe talaga ang isang Thaddeus Kade Lopez!
@keydeauz: Yes, darling. I created my own law. Section 1, Article 1 of Republic Act No. 14324 "whoever steps into my car is mine." ;)
Grabe ba! Is he really for real? Gumawa pa talaga siya ng sariling batas huh! Oh! I have a counter-argument. Akala niya siya lang? Did he forget that I am also a future lawyer?
Me: You can't create a law with yourself only without "agreement." Now, let me ask you Mr. Lopez, did I agree with your law?
I am smiling from ear to ear as I wait for his response, ngunit dumaan na ang 15 minutes at wala pa rin siyang reply.
Wait... Ghoster ata 'to eh! Impossible- My thoughts were cut off when I heard a knock at my door.
"Baby, someone's outside. Someone you know." It was my kuya Austin. But wait?! Who the hell would come in this hour? It's freaking 1:00 ABM!
"Okay, kuya! I'll be there." Tinignan ko ang looks ko, at nag suklay ako. Nakakahiya baka kung sino eh!
Pagkalabas ko ng bahay bumungad saakin ang nakasandal sa wall sa labas ng bahay namin na walang iba kundi ang nag-iisang Thaddeus Kade Lopez.
"What the?! What are you doing here? Ala una na ah!" He did not answer, he just pulled me towards him and kissed my lips.
OMG! WHAT WAS THAT ADIRA?! YOU HAVE LOST YOUR FIRST KISS!
"W-What was that?" I asked, and I hate my traitor mouth. Nauutal ito.
"Pwede na ba 'yon as sign for the agreement na sinasabi mo, ma'am?" Huh?? Did I even agree??
"I did not agree! Hinalikan mo ako! I'll sue you!" I thought his expression would change but he just freaking chuckled!
"You did not push me when I kissed you. I guess that's a good sign that you agreed." He answered. Woah. So that is what he means?
"Aba't! Sino namang magkakaroon ng courage to push you away when you did it so fastly and I was still in shock!" As usual, his jerky side, he chuckled again.
"Oh... So you want it slowly huh?? Babe, your brother might stab me using his things." I rolled my eyes. Of course that is not what I mean.
"Of course not! What I mean is if only I had the time I would probably push you away." I said.
He laughed at inilapit niya ulit ang mukha niya saakin.
"Then, I'll give you time. If you push me away, then I'll go home. But if you will not, I will go inside and ask your brother when your family is available. I'll ask them your hand." I wasn't able to answer him because he kissed me again. The difference is this time, it's not just a smack one. Kaya't napahawak ako sa leeg niya.
Oh my God! Why didn't I push him away?!
"Got your answer darling! Accompany me inside your house now, I'll talk to your brother." I wasn't anyone's "do this!" because even in our house, in my family, the decision will first come to me. But this guy is different, I freaking followed what he said. I accompanied him towards our house.
"Oh, Thaddie! Mabuti at naisipan mong pumasok huh??" Huh? My kuya calls him with a nickname. I must say, he created it himself. Thaddie, huh??
"Of course, I will. Bahay 'to ng future bayaw ko eh!" Hala, ang kapal! Sinabi talaga kay kuya ah! Mabuti nalang at hindi si kuya Aries 'yan.
Sa dalawa kong kuya, si Kuya Austin ang sobrang kalmado at soft spoken. Well, my kuya aries is calm and soft spoken naman, but since I'm the only girl, he's a bit strict. Sabi pa nga niya, gusto niya ang mapapangasawa ko ay 'yon talagang panigurado sila na-aalagaan ako. Hala! Bakit naman kasi ganon, ito nga ako ngayon eh nasa walang label stage at wala pang aminan na "I like you."
"Did I even say that you are allowed to date my sister?" Tinaasan siya ng kilay ni kuya Austin. Woah! The alter ego of Austin Del Moore.
"Man, you have no choice. I will still ask the hand of your sister whether you like it or not." I secretly laughed seeing my kuya's reaction. Paano nalang kaya pag whole family ko na?
"Maangas kalang naman kasi magkaibigan tayo. Kapag si Aries na kaharap mo. Who you ka." Kuya answered him. Wow! They are friends pala.
"Bakit hindi ko alam na friends kayo kuya?" I asked kuya Austin. Kasi, kilala ko lahat ng kaibigan nila kuya eh! How come I didn't know Kade?
"Huh?? I thought you-" My kuya's words cut by Kade. Trip niya talaga mamutol ng salita ng may salita ah!
"Aust." It was like a code. Ang pag sambit niya ng "Aust" ay nag patahimik kay kuya.
Nagugulohan ako. Ang hirap talaga basahin ng mga lalaki.
"Well, baby. Kaya hindi mo siya kilala kasi nandon ka sa states that time! You are on vacation in Paris with our grandparents." Ah! Maybe nagkakilala sila during summer kasi 'yon ang panahon na nag vacation kami nina Abuela eh.
"Okay, I'll go to my room na. You two have a great time together!" I thought kuya would nod or agree or both of them but kade held my arms instead.
"I'll go with you, Austin has a lot of work to do." I saw Kuya smiled assuring me that he agreed that Kade will walk with me towards my room.
Wait? TOWARDS MY ROOM?!
"Yes babe, I'll be staying with you tonight." He answered as if he read my mind.
What?! Me and Kade in a room?!
