15: When Dashed Kisses a Forehead

"I'm not going to the bar so I won't wear that, Teegan," I glared at her sternly and snatched the black pencil dress from her hand, returning it to my wardrobe.

Obviously, I don't want to look too flashy and flirtatious for Pete's sake. Bakit ba sa lahat ng gusto n'yang suotin ko ay 'yong mga revealing o kaya naman ay see-through sa likod? Geez. Mommy bought these dresses for me, but I've never worn any of them in my entire life!

"It's your first official date with Dashed CDG, Bronywn! What do you want to wear?! Kumot na pambalot sa buong katawan mo?!" she hissed, and I bit my lower lip.

Sabi naman niya... okay lang daw kahit ano'ng isuot ko, diba?

So there's nothing wrong if I pick out a black fitted long-sleeved top, high-waisted jeans, and a pair of sky-top sneakers from my closet. That's my usual style naman kaya despite Teegan's protests, in the end, iyon pa rin ang pinili kong suotin.

"Ugh! Kahit kailan talaga napaka-conservative mo!" she rolled her eyes while applying mascara to my eyelashes. Isa pa 'to. I really didn't want to put on makeup, but she insisted. To avoid a longer argument, pinayagan ko na. "Mas kikay pa yata si Tita Brooks kaysa sa'yo, e. Sina Kuya Briz, Kuya Bryán at Kuya Brent naman, mahilig din pumorma. E ikaw? Kulang na lang pati mukha mo takpan mo!"

"Just finish what you're doing, Teegan. Dashed will be here any minute now," I fought the urge to make a devilish face.

"Pwedeng kami na lang kaya ang magdate?" maluha-luha n'yang tanong habang napapanguso pa. "Hayss! Ang gwapo naman kasi ng date mo, couz! Tago mo 'yan, ah? Tapos sabihin mo 'wag kayo pumunta sa maraming tao kundi talagang pagkakaguluhan 'yun!" then she tied my hair into a ponytail with loose strands framing my face. "Grabe tologoooo! Boyfriend mo lang naman ang isa sa mga Calderón de García Brothers! Ang captain ball ng basketball team natin! Ang pinaka-yummy'ng taong nabubuhay dito sa balat ng lupa!"

"But I don't even know where we're going..." I answered her with a perplexed tone.

"Oh, geez!" she suddenly shrieked and covered her mouth with her palms. "Who knows, couz... He might take you to the most romantic hotel here in Manila, and then... and then... oh my gosh! You're going to do it with him na!"

My face went clueless as I looked at her.

"What do you mean?"

"Alam mo kasi, couz, iyong mga date ngayong kasalukuyang panahon, ibang level na! Kung noong mga kopong-kopong centuries pa, usually ay candlelight dinner ang ginagawa. Pero ngayon? Duh! No way in hell, noh! Bago na ang henerasyong ginagalawan natin so meaning, iba na rin ang galawan ng mga tao ngayon!" she replied, wiggling her brows. "Guys like Dashed CDG have particular needs, Bronywn. Kung hindi mo napuna 'yon, for sure, maghahanap agad iyon agad ng kapalit mo. 'Yong magaling mag-acrobatic... sa kama."

Nanlaki ang mga mata ko sa sinabi n'ya, and as if on cue, images formed in my mind. What the hell! Ano bang pinagsasabi nitong pinsan ko!

Ugh! Nababaliw na s'ya!

"Oh, shut up, Teegan!" I muttered in panic. "You're just eighteen pero ang dumi na ng mind mo!"

Kinunot n'ya ang kanyang noo. "What are you talking about? I'm just stating facts, couz! I wouldn't be surprised if mamaya, uuwi kang hindi na virgin, e!" pagkasabi n'ya non ay mas lalong namula ang buong parte ng mukha ko.

Pinagpapalo ko s'ya sa bandang braso n'ya but she just continued laughing loudly.

"Kadiri ka!"

I was about to attack her one more time nang bigla akong makarinig ng tatlong sunod-sunod na busina ng sasakyan na nanggagaling sa tapat ng bahay namin. Nagkatinginan kaming dalawa ni Teegan for a moment, then we both rushed to the window of my room to see who it was.

Bahagya kong binuksan 'yong bintana to get a clearer view. And there it was. I spotted a black Lamborghini... and a man leaning on it. He was wearing a coat with a black V-neck shirt underneath and a maong pants.

Napahinga ako nang malalim.

Okay, Bronywn. For all the love of all that's holy, don't be overdramatic!

"Gora na couzzz! Good luck sa date niyong dalawaaaaa!" Teegan howled bago pa man ako magtatakbo papalabas ng bahay. "Give it your all, huh! Support kita d'yan! Have a great and lovely night!" dinig ko pang sigaw n'ya as I finally made it out of our gate.

Awtomatiko namang kumunot ang noo ko dahil sa mga isinigaw niya. She's out of her mind! Paano kung narinig ni Dashed 'yun?! He might think I'm lusting after him behind his back!

I can't believe her! She's so so annoying!

At eto na nga, Dashed is already standing in front of me.  I suddenly felt nervous as he looked at me for what seemed like forever. I get it. Maybe he finds my outfit a little bit tacky, kaya ganyan s'ya makatingin.

Habang s'ya... ang gwapo at ang neat niyang tignan sa suot niya.

"Is there something wrong with what I'm wearing?" I asked with a bitten lip as I looked down. Minutes passed, and he remained silent, so I got my answer.  "Right. I'm sorry. I'll just change," I uttered impulsively nang hindi talaga s'ya totally nagsalita at nakatitig lang s'ya sakin the whole time.

Hinigpitan ko ang pagkakahawak sa suot kong sling bag bago s'ya tinalikuran.

But what he did next left me stunned in my place.

He pulled me closer to him and...

And kissed my forehead.

He kissed it.

Oh, my God.

He kissed my forehead!

"Damn... I'm sorry, but I can't help it. You're just too fabulous, baby." he whispered delicately, making me want to collapse.
