Love and Lies : Van's Story

Chapter 9

We just had finished our dinner.
Grabe talaga yung ganda ng place nato . Very prestigious.. I really like the Ambiance here. It makes the whole experience feels like attending a royal ball . So I guess hindi kami out of place sa bihis namin . hayy why worry Van?? Nasa 5 star hotel kayo ok?? kailangan mo pabang mag taka?? haha.. naku napasobra na yata ako sa pag inom ng wine. kinakausap ko nanaman yung sarili ko

Suddenly the whole place felt very nostalgic when the band started to play music..

then the romantic inside me suddenly came out as I asked her to dance.

"May I?" I asked as I stand beside her and offers my hand.

"Sure" she smiled then she held onto me

as we walk papunta sa dance floor ay madami ng nagtitinginan samin. there are ladies na nagbubulungan at may mga kalalakihan na nakatitig sakanya Na para bang hinuhubaran na sya. Mga mAnyakis !! Gulpihin ko kayo ehh!!.

as we get there. she puts her hands on my shoulder and I put mine on her hips.. then we started to move with the sound of music.

"you dance very graceful Miss Villa Theresa.. Im starting to like the way you move" I said then I grinned at her

"You silly.. haha My father taught me to dance " tinapik nya ako sa mukha pero nagpatuloy parin kami sa pag sayaw.

"I never thought that you are much more beautiful up close.. " I dont know If this is just the effect of alcohol on me. but She really is beautiful.. I could kiss her If she just let me hahaha.. Whatt???? Really Van?? Not yet ok? I mean Dont!!

"hmmm naku Bolero ka Mister Davidson" She said as I see her blushed..

I stared at her as we dance..

parang sya nalang yung nakikita ko ngayon.. Her beauty outstands the crowd.. Kahit gaano pa kadaming tao ngayon. Pakiramdam ko Kaming dalawa lang dito sa Dance floor.

"You know It makes me wonder nagpaalam kaba sa Boyfriend mo? na aalis ka?" I asked kasi sa ganda nitong babaeng to imposible na wala syang boyfriend.. tsaka baka mamaya may Sumapak nalang sakin dito out of the blue diba?

"Hmmmmmmm" Bigla syang nag isip ng malalim. Hayyy sabi na ngaba ehh meron...

I loosen my hold on her hips but her grip on my shoulders tighten a bit.

"Syempre nag paalam.." she said at dun ko na nabitawan yung malakang nya ... Ohhh shit!! Bakit pa?? ano pang sense ng gabing to kung may Boyfriend na pala sya!!!

"Nagpaalam na ako sa Parents ko..

pero hindi sa Boyfriend ko" napakunot ang noo ko sa narinig..

"Bakit?? You know you should call him now.. baka nag aalala na yun sayo ngayon.." I said as I held her hands na naka patong sa balikat ko para tanggalin.

"I DONT HAVE A BOYFRIEND VAN" She replied with an emotionless voice at napatigil ako.

"Ohh I thought you have" I said..

What I heard gave me joy... atleast inside. but I dont show it. baka isipin pa nya tinatawanan ko sya dahil wala syang boyfriend.. Natuwa ako kasi atleast ..

May chance...

Ako...

"What??? shut up Van!!! you Are FRIENDS right???? " sabi ko sa isip ko.

"and thats as far as you can go...

Not until your memories as back.."

"Heyy. are you alright Van?" she asked and I saw courage on her face
