Can I have this dance

CHAPTER 32

THE anniversary is fast approaching, the preparation stressed me out but I didn't complain. Nakausap ko na ang mga events organizers and everything was settled, nagkaroon na din ng food tasting para sa mga pagkain na iseserve during the event.

Elieazer let me took over the preparations, marami kasi kaming nakitang discrepancies nuong planning department ang may handle ng preparations. Vera doesn't like the idea of me handling the preparations but she cannot do anything as it was Elieazer's decision.

His parents were also looking forward on how will the event go after they knew that I was the one doing the preparations. Medyo napressure pa ako dahil tumaas bigla ang expectations nila.

I have been very careful at the same time, it seems like my baby has been very cooperative. Mabuti na lang din at hindi pa obvious ang baby bump ko, pero nahahalata na nagkakalaman ako.

"Beh, hindi mo na ako maloloko.." sabi saakin ni Trisha. Nandito kami sa paborito naming coffee shop, hinihintay si Harry na kakauwi lang ng Venice. "Lumalaki yang joga mo, oh" nasamid pa ako dahil sa sinabi ng kaibigan ko.

"My gosh! nawala lang kayo ni Aiden ng matagal lumala na yang bibig mo" inis na sabi ko dito "Atsaka nga, paano naging kayo?" tanong ko dito, umiwas naman ng tingin saakin si Trisha saka siya tumingin sa bintana.

"Nandito na si Harry! finally may taya!" pag iiba ni Trisha ng topic.

Napatingin naman ako sa may entrance and there is Harry, smiling at us. Lalo siyang gumwapo, and also his light brown hair matches his complexion.

"Buti naman naisipan mong magpakita pa?" bungad ni Trisha ng makalapit si Harry sa pwesto namin. Bumeso naman ito saamin ni Trisha saka siya naupo sa tabi ko. "Kung hindi pa ako magdradrama, hindi ka pa uuwi" pagmamaktol nito.

"Sshh! kakarating ko lang, quiet ka muna Trish" sabi ni Harry "Hello, Guin.. you looked extra pretty today" he winked at me.

Nginitian ko naman si Harry dahil sa compliment nito. I don't know why, but I felt like something changed in him.

"Grabe ka na Harry, si Guin na lang nakikita mong maganda" kunwaring nagtatampo si Trisha, pinanlakihan ko naman ito ng mata.

"Maganda ka naman Trish, kaso mas maganda si Guin ngayon" muling banat ni Harry, "By the way? Coffee lang kayo? Don't you like desserts? It's on me" pagpresinta ni Harry.

At dahil mahilig kami sa dessert ni Trisha ay agad kaming umorder, dalawang strawberry shortcake pa ang kinuha ko dahil talagang nararamdaman ko ang cravings ko today.

Nagkwentuhan naman kaming tatlo, Trisha will start to work at her parent's company as an employee under probation. Although, gusto ng parents niya ay mag manager siya sa finance department ay tinanggihan niya ito, she wanted to start from the bottom. Harry, on the hand is starting to handle his family's business, kaya siya pumunta ng Venice and stayed there for a long time dahil may inasikaso ito doon.

"How about you Guin? Balita ko ikaw ang organizer para sa 10th anniversary ng Quinn's group" Harry mentioned "Isn't that stressful?"

"Nope, it isn't. Also, my husband has been assissting me so it's fine" nakangiting sagot ko kay Harry.

I noticed the grim on his face when I mentioned my husband. His eyes suddenly looked cold and emotionless, bigla nga lang iyon nag iba ng mapansin niyang nakatitig ako sakanya.

"It's your twin sister's death anniversary tomorrow, nandon ka ba bukas? Your mother invited us to commemorate your sister" Biglang sabi ni Harry.

Guineth's death anniversary was long over but my family wasn't able to commemorate her death at that time due to the things that is going on with our family, bukas talaga nila naisipan dahil espesyal daw ang araw na iyon para sa unica ija nila.
