CRUZETTE let out a violent sighed while constanly looking at her reflection in a  full-lenth mirror. Hindi siya mapakali ng mga oras na iyon.

It wasn’t her first time attending a grand event, so there shouldn’t be any room for anxiety in her heart, but she just couldn’t help but feel nervous, especially since she was the date of the man.

Napailing siya.

Sa Ikalawang pagkakataon ay muli niyang tinitigan ang sarili sa harapan ng salamin.

Damn! She looks dead gorgeous.

Huminga siya ng malalim bago tuluyang naglakad pababa sa hagdan. Doon ay nadatnan niya si Creed na kasalukuyang tahimik na nakaupo sa sofa habang matamang nakatitig sa suot nitong wristwatch.

Owenji. 𝙰𝚗𝚘𝚗𝚐 𝚘𝚛𝚊𝚜 ba 𝚜𝚒𝚢𝚊 𝚍𝚞𝚖𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚗𝚐? 𝙱𝚊𝚝 𝚙𝚊𝚛𝚊𝚗𝚐 𝚊𝚗𝚐 𝚊𝚐𝚊 𝚗'𝚢𝚊 𝚗𝚊𝚖𝚊𝚗 𝚢𝚊𝚝𝚊.

The air crackled with anticipation as she walked through the apartments living room.  She cleared her throat to get the man's attention.

Pumihit si Creed at pagkatapos ay nagangat ng tingin upang harapin siya.

Creed's eyes widened starring at the woman who stood before him, a vision of breathtaking beauty.

Cruzette was a study in elegance. She wore a dress of rich burgundy, the color of a vintage wine, that flowed around her like liquid velvet. The wrap hem, cinched at her waist, highlighted her graceful curves, while a daring side cut revealed a glimpse of her fair, toned thighs. The dress, a perfect match for her fiery spirit, seemed to pulse with life, mirroring the light that shone in her eyes.

Creed watched her with a mixture of awe and affection, a smile playing on his lips. Her hair, a cascade of dark waves, was styled in loose curls that framed her face, highlighting the delicate curve of her cheekbones and the playful sparkle in her eyes.

"You look… incredible. " he breathed, his voice rough with emotion.

Nabigla siya sa loob ng isang minuto at hindi nakapagsalita. Nang mahimasmasan, pilit na ngumiti si Cruzette. Gusto niyang kiligin sa mga oras na iyon pero hindi niya magawa, kasihodang naroon pa rin sa isip niya ang usapan nila ng lalaki tungkol sa pesteng pagkukunwari na iyon.

Pumihit siya at nagangat ng tingin para harapin ang lalaki.

"Thank you, Honey. " labas sa ilong na sabi niya, pagkatapos ay nagpakawala ng isang pekeng ngiti.

The man smiled. "No worries, after all I was just stating the fact. Mhmm can we go now? We can't be late for Yuan's party, magtatampo lang ang isang yon." Kapagkuwan ay sabi nito sa mapangasar na boses.

She nodded.

Her eyes widened when Creed held her left hand. It sent a strange electricity that stirred her system.

Nabigla siya, pagkatapos ay tinapunan niya ng matalim na tingin ang lalaki, ngunit tila wala itong epekto rito. Ni hindi manlang ito natakot ng kahit kaunti.

"Do we really have to hold hands? " wala sa huwisyong tanong niya rito.

The man did not utter a word, instead, he just smiled at her and held her hand tightly.

Walang nagawa si Cruzette kundi sundin ang kagustuhan ng lalaki, na makipaghawak-kamay dito. Wala rin namang mangyayari kung susuwayin niya ang kagustuhan nito, for sure magaaway lang sila ng lalaki. And she can't let that happened. She won't ruined the night of Yuan just because of that nonsense.

Cruzette's jaw almost dropped seeing the man's gentleman like action.

"Get in, Gorgeous. We're late. " rinig niyang sabi ng lalaki, kasunod niyon ang pagbukas ng pintuan ng limousine nito.
