Chapter Nineteen

"Wow, Lavinia! Mukha kang artista!" Pumalakpak si Manang huling at parang fan-girl na lumapit sa kanya.

She flipped her long curly hair and gave Manang Huling her dazzling smile. Binaba niya ang huling tatlong baitang ng grand staircase, at ipinatong ang isang kamay sa newel post.

"Ano'ng ibig sabihin niya'n Manang, dati hindi ako mukhang artista?"

Tumawa ang matanda at madamdaming umiling. "Siyempre hindi, pero iba ang dating mo ngayon! Ang ganda-ganda mo!"

Dapat lang, she spent more than four hours preparing.

"Oo nga, Lavinia," sang-ayon ni Nanay Lusing. Tumayo rin ito mula sa couch at lumapit sa kanya. "Ang ganda-ganda mong bata ka!"

Ngumiti rin siya sa lola ni Evan, saka maingat na huminga at itinaas ang tingin sa binata. Lumalim ang kanyang paghinga nang magtama ang tingin nila.

Tuxedos were made for men like Evan. The austere black coat and stiff white dress shirt hugged those chiseled muscles to perfection. His dark golden hair framed his sculpted face, the strands slightly grazing his jaw. Those wild blue eyes stared back at her with heated intensity.

Pinadaan nito ang titig sa kabuuan niya. She had curled her long hair and swept it to one side. She went for minimal makeup. Just a dusting of smokey brown across her eyelids, voluminous lashes, and a pop of hot red lipstick to give that sultry, old Hollywood look.

The gown was another story. It was simple, yes, but it was grabbed your balls sexy. Fire engine red with a sweetheart neckline, it cupped her breasts and emphasized the creamy upper curves. The clingy fabric hugged body, and the thigh-high slit showcased her tan and toned legs. It had no back, except for the thin diamond studded straps connecting the front with the back. The fabric dipped low, stopping at the upper swell of her buttocks. She wore dripping diamond earings, and a wide, white gold diamond and pearl cuff bracelet. She was dressed to kill, and from the hungry look in Evan's blue eyes, she succeeded.

"What, Evan, no praises?" tukso niya.

Maingat na nagpakawala ng hangin ang binata, at inangat nito ang titig sa kanyang mga mata. Tumaas ang sulok ng mga labi nito, at parang siya naman ang hindi makapagsalita. Damn killer smile.

Mukhang tie sila.

"You're beautiful," usal nito.

Not very creative, but when it came to Evan, the simplest praises were heart pounding. Kasi totoong-totoo iyon. He looked at her as if he couldn't believe she was real.

Kinagat niya ang pang-ibabang labi niya, at parang nag-iinit din ata ang kanyang mga pisngi. "Thanks."

"Mag-ingat kayo, ha?" Niyakap siya ni Nanay Lusing. "Salamat, Lavinia, ha? Salamat, Apo."

Parang may humaplos sa puso niya nang makita ang naluluhang mga mata ni si Nanay Lusing.

Higit sa kanino pa man, si Nanay Lusing ang pinakamasaya sa disisyon ni Evan. At hindi siya sigurado kung ano ang dapat maramdaman sa pagpapasalamat nito. Wala naman talaga siyang ginawa. Aside from having sex with him, of course. God, that was just so lurid.

Tumango na lang siya at maliit na ngumiti.

"Your grandma's really happy, Evan," usal niya sa binata nang nasa kotse na sila.

"I know."

Ginagap niya ang kamay nitong nakahawak sa kambiyo, at pinisil iyon.

"I should have done this long ago, if only for her," he said.
