Prologue
"Malapit na 'ko," I laughed at kalaunan ay napailing din.
"Really? Kanina mo pa sinasabi 'yan ah."
"Totoo na 'to," she said and I heard the horn of a car. "Naabutan ako ng traffic. Anyways, dala ko na 'yung mga ipapandisplay mo. I even brought decorative candles kahit hindi mo sinabi. Syempre para romantic,"
I laughed, "Wow, thank you..." I gently flipped the meat I'm currently cooking upon I saw it on its golden brown color. "Matatapos na 'ko rito sa niluluto ko."
"Hindi ba naman sunog?" Agad akong napasimangot sa kanyang sinabi lalo pa nang bigla siyang tumawa para mang-inis.
"Nagpapatulong ako kay Manang Mila. Syempre ayokong sunog ang makakain n'ya"
"Sanay na ata 'yon 'no." She laughed at me and I just rolled my eyes.
"Ibahin mo ngayon!" I said.
Minuto pa bago naming napagpasyahan putulin ang tawag. I just continued on what I am cooking upon I hid my phone. Pokus na pokus pa ako sa aking niluluto dahil ayoko ng sunog ang maipapakain sa kanya ngayon. Hindi naman siya nag-iinarte kung sunog man ang nailuluto ko noon ngunit iba ngayon. I just want all of these to be perfect for this day.
"Magugustuhan niya iyan," manang said while she's watching me.
I smiled at her, "Thank you, po. Sana nga po lalo't hindi na po sunog ang niluto ko," biro ko at sabay naman kaming natawa.
Trisha came as I'm placing the dishes on clean plates. Katulong ko pa sina Manang Mila, ang mayordoma ng mansyon sa pag-aayos at paghahanda ng mga pagkain. Pagkatapos nito ay tumungo naman agad kami sa garden para roon ilagay at iayos ang magiging set-up. Even some gardeners helped us in placing the decors and the lights. They're all kind and generous. Nahiya pa ako noong una dahil baka nakakaabala kami pero hindi naman daw.
Two hours passed when we're finally done preparing. Agad naman akong nagpasalamat sa mga tumulong sa akin para sa paghahandang ito. They just smiled and even teased me for this plan of mine. Hindi ko nga lang alam kung maganda nga itong hinanda ko para sa kanya but they said that it's a nice plan. Romantic daw ang dating.
Agad naman siyang pumasok sa aking isipan. I'm nervous about his reaction.
I scanned the whole place and a smile immediately placed on my lips. The lights are hanging beautifully and it can be seen anywhere within the garden. Some were placed around the plants that made the place more beautiful lalo pa't madilim na ngayon. The candles are all set on the table, making the table more romantic especially those rose petals above it. Even the foods are all set on the table as well. Ako ang nagluto ng lahat ng iyon. Gumising pa ako ng maaga para maghanda para sa araw na ito.
I'm prepared for this day that I even bought a dress for this occasion. Wearing an a-line jewel sleeveless navy blue short homecoming dress ay tinitigan ko and aking sarili sa salamin. It's so pretty. May pleats pa ito sa ibaba at hanggang hita ko lang ang dress. I also paired it with my not-so-high black stiletto. Hindi naman ako sanay sa matataas. For my hair, I just let my wavy hair fell. Inayusin din ako ng kaunti ni Trisha at nilagyan ng light makeup sa mukha.
