I hate you , i love you | MACOLET AU

CH:9 Slow dance.

Yves's pov:

Friday arrived and Stella went to my house to fix my makeup. Hindi kasi ako marunong kaya kailangan ko talaga si Stella, sinabi ko na naman sa kanya na ako nalang pero ayaw niya eh, she insisted na siya nalang daw ang magmamakeup sa akin.

“ Okay, then...Boom! Shala! Parang ibang tao ka ngayon! Buti nalang may fairy godmother ka para ayusan ka! ” Stella said along with a proud smile on her face.

I looked at the mirror and oh my...

I admit it, I do see myself better now. Parang ibang tao nga ang nasa harapan ko ngayon.

“ Oh siya sige na, baka iniintay na tayo ng “prince charming” mo. ” Stella said as if she's teasing me and I couldn't help but smile.

Scene shift | Calline's pov:

I got up and started to get ready with my heart pounding with excitement and nervousness. After getting ready, I checked myself on the mirror.

Infairness parang naging matino ang itsura ko ngayon.

I let out a small chuckle because of the joke I created inside my head. I went downstairs and then went to my car, started the engine and started to drove off.

When I arrived, I heard the slow romantic music filling the room with people dancing but other than that I felt many people taking glances or even staring at me as if I was a celebrity or a monster that came in.

I don't know why but I feel like those looks are common to me. It can be because they're shock that I'm in here? That I finally choosed someone to be with on prom? Or maybe because of how I look, that's all of the only reason they'll look at me.

I shrugging it off as I went to a corner with a vacant table and waited for Yves and then just a few minutes later
I heard many people whispering, I didn't care at first until I heard her name, "Yves".

I looked at the entrance and I was shock to see her on a yellow dress with a light makeup on her face and a curled hair up like Bell on beauty and the beast. It's simple yet so beautiful and powerful. Her beauty drags your eyes to look at her, actually I don't like girls with dresses, it's just too common and usual for girls but...Her? On a dress? I admit it this dress actually suits her, she looks so beautiful in it. It feels like she owns it.

I snapped out of it when she suddenly waved infront of my face, “ Kaya mo pa? Tulala ka kasi sa kagandahan ko eh. ” I felt my cheeks heating up because of embarrassment as I spoke “ Luh? Assuming ka talaga. May iniisip lang ako. ” she chuckled, knowing it was a lie.

We ordered our food and the night went by smoothly, while on the other hand Yves, is just talking and telling me stories, I just listened to her and the time felt like it stopped as me and Yves shared our laughter and happiness between her stories. Then when the event was about to end, the host started speaking.

“ Okay so bago po tayo umuwi, gusto niyo po bang sumayaw muna tayong lahat ng isang mabagal na sayaw kasama ang partner natin? ”

The crowd agreed and waited for the people to gather up at the dance floor before playing the music.

“ Tara na Cal! Sayaw tayo! ” Yves said as she pulled my hand through the dance floor, I just nodded meaning that I accept her invitation to dance.
