Opposite Attracts

Chapter 16

Timothy's POV

Nandito ako ngayon sa kwarto ko nagpapahinga. Kakatapos ko lang makipag laro sa kapatid ko. Grabe! Napagod akong makipag habulan sa kanya. Parang hindi nawawalan ng energy.

I was about to close my eyes para magpahinga when my phone beep. I check the message

From: Unknown

Love conquers all

#AngGandaKO

Ha? Sino to? Hindi naman kasi naka save sa phone ko yung number. Ni replayan ko naman siya, asking who is he or she.

*knock knock*

"kuya?"

"yes Baby?"

"mom is looking for you"

"okay baby. Just a minute."

Lalabas na sana ako ng kwarto when my phone beep again. I get my phone to check the message.

It's me. Sofia

My heart skip a beat. She texted me!! I can't believe it. I've been waiting for her to text me. Kahit group message lang. Ang saya ko!!! Thank you Lord!

I know I'm being over acted but, She text me. I'm jumping all around my room when the door opened.

"Oh son? Why are you jumping? Hindi nman new year ah?"

Confusion is written all over dad's face.

"Dad! She texted me!" i just can't hide the happiness i fell right now. Napailing nlang si dad sabay ngiti.

"hahaha. prepare son. Will be having our dinner sa restaurant."

"okay dad."

Lumabas na si dad ng kwarto ko but i'm still smiling by myself. I won't delete her first message. Even though it's kinda heart stinging coz there will be dating but atleast she texted me.

I change my clothes and go downstairs. We headed into an Italian Restaurant.

When we arrive at the restaurant nag order na si daddy ng food, we were happily chatting when i heared this familiar voice.

"Timothy?"

Lumingon naman ako and i found Dustin standing at my back.

"Ai! Dustin. ikaw pala."

"Sabi ko na nga ba ikaw yan eh"

" Dustin nga pala, this is my mom, my dad and my little sister. Mom,dad,Jirah, he is Dustin, classmate ko"

"GoodEvening po tito, tita and Jirah" bati naman ni Dustin.

"GoodEvening hijo, come join us."  sabi ni dad sa kanya kaya napatingin din ako sa kanya.

"Ah hindi po. Thank you po pero i'm with someone."

"Ah ganun ba." sagot ni dad

Sa likod ni Dustin, i saw this beautiful woman walking near him. Huminto siya sa tabi ni Dustin.

"Oy Timothy! Nandito karin pala! Nice seeing you here!" sabi niya sabay ngiti ng malapad.

"A-a o-oo" C'mon Timothy! Say something! Please dila at utak makisama kayo ngayon.

"Ah So- Sofia, thi-s is m-my mom, d-dad a-and Jir-ah my sis-ter. M-mom, dad, th-this is So-fia" pagpapakilala ko sa kanila. Ang ganda niya. Kahit anong suotin niya bumabagay sa kanya.

"Hai po tito,tita! Nice meeting you po! Hai Jirah! Your soooo cute!!!"

"Thank you po ate!" Jirah answered her sabay giggle.

"Your welcome cutie! Nga po pala, una na po kami! Nice meeting you po ulit! Bye Timothy! See you sa school!"

"Cge hija,hijo take care!" sagot ni mommy. Ngumiti nalang ako sa kanila pati si daddy at Jirah.

Pagtalikod nila nakita ko pang amakbay si Dustin sa kanya and intertwine there free hand. I feel a sting in my chest. How i wish i'm the one she go out with. I shake that idea in my mind. I shouldn't take what's not mine.

"Kuya, are they couples?" Jirah ask innocently.

"Yes Jirah." Yea they are..

"Why did you stuter when she talk to you? Do you like her?" I was shock with my sister's question. Should i answer it?

"Jirah. You too young to know about that things." Sagot ni mommy. Woah! Thanks mom.

We continue to eat our dinner, i saw daddy glancing at me several times. I think he already know who's that mysterious girl I've told to him.
