JERIC’S POV
“How are things between you and Solara?” Achi asked over breakfast.
“So far so good. She went out with the team last week kasama rin yung isa niyang friend,” I answered.
“Looks like you’re getting serious anak. Kelan mo ba siya dadalhin dito sa bahay para makilala na namin,” mom said.
“Oo nga. Nakita naman namin siya noon sa Misibis Bay pero you guys didn’t formally introduce her to us,” dad added.
“E paano babagal bagal si Ahia that time pero bumawi naman ngayon kaya ayos lang,” Jeron butted in.
“You asked her na ba kung pwede manligaw?” Shobe asked.
“Not yet. I don’t know when. I’m finding the right time.”
“Ligaw palang naman bakit ayaw mo pang i-push? Ganda kaya niya baka mamaya maunahan ka pa bigla iyak tawa ka nyan,” Jeron said.
“Kulit mo Shoti! Ayoko nga kasi madaliin tsaka she assured me naman na ako lang. Walang kasabay.”
“Pero kahit na Ahia. Shoti is right, malamang hindi lang ikaw ang may gusto sa kanya,” Almira said.
“UAAP opening na tomorrow right? Why don’t you invite her to watch?” Achi suggested.
“Good idea! Pareho naman kayong may laro ni Jeron so madami tayong tickets. Tell her tumabi nalang siya sa amin so we can meet her narin,” mom said.
“Ma naman hindi ko pa nga nayayaya e. Tsaka mahihiya yun na siya lang tapos kasama kayong lahat agad.”
“Pilitin mo o kaya magsama siya ng kaibigan para hindi siya mailang. Don’t take no for an answer. Teng ka di ba? Hindi pwedeng totorpe-torpe!” Dad said.
“Si dad talaga, hindi naman ako torpe. Tuma-timing lang. Sige na una na po ako. I have class pa I don’t want to be late.” I stood up and gave mom, Achi, and Shobe a kiss then tapped dad and Shoti on the shoulders.
I carried my things and went straight to my car. I texted her first before heading out.
